Michael Jackson Tribute (Nature Boy)

To an amazing artist. I've never seen anyone else move like him. What he did bore a resemblance to dancing, but was something else.

The fierce precision of Michael Jackson's dance was rooted in an elemental fear of his father. What besides fear could render such fearsome precision? It's was as though he was desperately trying to leave his body, perpetually scared out of his skin. If his feet languished on the gound, his father, hovering just off-stage, would surely beat him. So he took to air --and walked on the moon.

Transfiguration was a common stratagem in Greek mythology, usually a bid to escape. As the anorexic, at war with the flesh and bones that hold him here, attempts weightlessness, we must always ask, what is he or she attempting escape FROM? There is always an antecedent.

'Nature Boy' seemed apt.

This is a nice video. But I like Nat King Cole's version of this song much better.
