[EfronLover1100]

I love Michael Jackson's music and how they apply it to so many things like comercials, songs, etc. You've got to love his music! RIP Michael Jackson :(

[Mari8love]

He is hot even as a raisin.

Long live King Michael X

[rosymtz97]

@Mari8love no sexier as a cartoon :-* to michael

[4theloveofMike]

Please, out of respect for Micheal, stop using the term Jacko. He hated that and often said he's not Jacko he's Jackson. It would be appreciated.

[B1ggu5]

Why did Jacko hate that term?

[4theloveofMike]

@B1ggu5 He hated it because it was used in a derrogatory manner when applied to him. When combined with

wacko it made him appear crazy, unstable, irrational and strange. He was different but there is nothing wrong with being different. His different way of looking at and doing things made this world a better place. We need more of that kind of different.

[B1ggu5]

@4theloveofMike Didn't realise Jacko hated it so much.

[capnblink]

@4theloveofMike  fuck you and wacko jacko.

[liltimmyspeashooter]

@4theloveofMike Well, Jacko was a pedophile so who gives a shit what he gets called?

[4theloveofMike]

@liltimmyspeashooter Sorry you think that but if you'd do a little research you'd find that charge is not true. If the FBI couldn't find anything; he was investigated for several years, I think it's reasonable to say he wasn't a pedophile. He was found not guilty in 2005, the 1993 issue was a case of extortion (as was the 2003 case) and though the DA kept a website up for 10 years for "victims" none were found. Sssneddon even had investigators travel the world - nothing. Info's on the net. Seek.

[atirad8]

@4theloveofMike I made a mistake with the cursor. I mean most definately THUMBS UP!!!!!!! YES you are ABSOLUTELY CORRECT in the FACTS.

[200damary]

@liltimmyspeashooter fuck a kids mj is still the best ever

[tanelkagan]

@4theloveofMike Out of respect for Michael, you could spell his name right. :-)

[cathcoy]

Let's make it right for Mike. mjtruthnow com

[amarvinwinansfan]

this is funny!! all the fruit falling out!! WOW

[nicolitamargerita]

Where's Jeraisin... I mean... Jermaine?

[Vitosha77]

Thanks for posting.  That was neat.

[sppoky]

is that MJ's real voice???... i mean at the end???

[donaskdonttell]

Yes it is. his Pepsi contract prevented him from singin and or endorsing any other product, however, he was permitted to use his speaking voice.The singer is his "stand in" . The same one used when Michael appeared on both, the Simpsons, and when he appeared on the anti drug campaign of The Flintstone's Kids, as Michael Jackstone, again, he was allowed to use his speaking voice, but not his singing voice.

[jorday10]

yes it is, i was thinkin' the same thing,

[rosymtz97]

@sppoky Duhh that's his sexy voice i no it anywhere

[aeisha1491]

@sppoky yep

[danimg23]

yes it is. Isnt it great haha

[MsMelsk]

@sppoky i believe so

[dll0990]

@sppoky yup it is

[flashsonic45789]

@sppoky yes it was, part of his contract or something

[flashsonic45789]

0:46 - 0:49 the strawberry caught some Crotch dust lol

[Dadsgirl240]

@sppoky yes

[Dadsgirl240]

@sppoky its him singing too

[jacksonremix35]

@Dadsgirl240 no the singer is kipp lennon ;-)

[Dadsgirl240]

@jacksonremix35 oh is it it does kinda sound weird

[jacksonremix35]

@Dadsgirl240 ^^ kipp lennon has also sung the simpson version of "lisa its your birthday" and "say no" in the flintstone kids. For the say no-campagn. It was trained by michael himself to sing, because michael was not allowed to sing by his contract

[diezil1987]

this is funny

[SKAREKROWE33]

R I P- MJ

[RedPolarBearRanger]

I love how this commercial has the raisins sing I Heard It Through the Grape Vine to the beat of Bad and plus the same company that did these commercials also did the clay animation for the Speed Demon segment in the movie Moonwalker as well.
