♫ His Music Will Live ForEver ♫

“I have to say that working with Michael was amazing, absolutely amazing! That’s no overuse of the term and the word because he was such a genius; beyond the word genius a lot of times. Michael was a true genius. His gifts and his talents, his dancing and singing just denoted that he was a genius, you know? Everybody all over the world was in love with him. His sound and his moves, his image, his nature, I mean, he was just truly, truly gifted and blessed.

Working with him, and watching and learning from him, from a genius, lifts your abilities up, your vision, your view, your capabilities and possibilities. It was brilliant for me having the opportunity to work with Michael. I learned a tremendous amount from him; working with him on how to do things the right way, on perfection, on the meticulous, on dynamic’s and on being bigger than life. That was one term he always loved to use, “It’s gotta be bigger than life, and to make such an impression on people they will never forget it for the rest of their lives.” So working with Michael was just phenomenal.

To watch him dance at each concert was like me looking for a new planet; a new galaxy and discovering it because every time you think you know all of his moves, as I mentioned earlier, he does something that just dazzles you. And I’m back there; I’m supposed to be working, but I’m back there screaming and shouting, “Go Michael!” I’m like the fan on the other side of stage, but it was so amazing when he did something so totally, totally stunning. Every night I looked forward to that.”   Jonathan “Sugarfoot” Moffett - MJ’s long time drummer   

“Every time I saw Michael dance he would dazzle me with something I’d never seen him do before,and I always thought I’d seen everything he did.I’d watch him;I’d keep my eye on him and he’d do a spin longer than I thought was possible.He’d moonwalk faster and smoother sometimes than anytime I’d ever seen him or he was just like a machine,like Terminator,like some kind of unrealistic human being or robot,you know? I’ve seen him do some amazing,dazzling things.”  Jonathan “Sugarfoot” Moffett - MJ’s long time drummer

“Michael’s coming,” and everybody got nervous.As soon as you had the vision of him, even just knowing he was coming,you felt something,like a tingle happening.Just to watch him walk through the door,it’s like all the molecules in the air stop and you can pinch them with your finger;pick them up.It’s like you could see the smallest speck;you could see the molecules in the air when Michael walked in the room.He changed them; the molecular structure of the air.And that’s the equation of what happens when Michael enters,and everybody in the room felt it and knew it.Then their attitudes and personalities would change.They would perk up their attention,but they would always say, “There’s something with him.When he came in I got nervous.I felt something!” And I would hear that over and over again and I would say, “I know,I know.I’ve been feeling it for thirty years.”   Jonathan “Sugarfoot” Moffett - long time MJ’s drummer
