Tribute to a King
That is what the title said and I could
think of only two people who fitted that title (in the music fraternity)
The first one is Elvis Presley and the
second , Michael Jackson (obviously)
Frankly speaking I liked him ( M J ) when he
looked like this, simple and down to earth
I mean his performance on stage did not
diminish whenever he put on his dancing shoes but his latest attire did put off
many
Coming back to the blog post, I stumbled
upon a puppet show by puppeteer Juan Jose Vargas who did an excellent job of
creating all the moves that Michael Jackson did while dancing.
He created a perfect Michael Jackson Puppet and
made him dance to the song “Blood on the Dance Floor”
It was amazing to watch the video (which is
just for 3 minutes) with all the perfect leg and hip movements which was the
trade mark of Michael Jackson.
He even tried the moon walk, but that was
nowhere close to the moon walk that Michael Jackson did. I think we should give
Juan Jose that much leeway, as the Moon Walk is not an art that every one can
master. I have been trying it for the last two years, but can’t go more than
two and half steps - then the moon stops rotating for me (or does the
moon rotate?)
This short movie was made in Mexico
Hats off to Mauricio and Juan and of course Michael
Jackson. Long Live the King !
Have a look at the video yourself - click here (it may take some time for the video to appear and play, so one may have to exercise some patience)
