Fantastic piece of art

The acting by the King of Pop is extra amazing in this video. The video has everything you want from an Michael Video. Its another timeless classic by MR. Jackson. One that will never be forgotten. A true masterpiece. If I could give a higher rating than 10, I certainly would.

This is art at its best

Incredible video with even better dancing and singing. Michael looks beautiful in this video. Its a really fun video. And the song is very catchy as well. Another classic one by the greatest entertainer of all time.

impressive

The choreography, the song, the atmosphere. All is just fascinating and true proof of the genius of Michael Jackson, proposing the fair story of love and the exact portrait of a ghetto story to the smallest detail. So, admirable work.

One of MJ's more forgettable efforts

Here we have the award-nominated music video for the Michael Jackson song "The Way You Make Me Feel" from 1987, so this one has its 30th anniversary this year. The director is Joe Pytka who worked with Jackson on other occasions too and is close to his 80th birthday mostly known for making Space Jam today. But back to this one here: It is really generic and yet a perfect example of a Michael Jackson video as it combines several common factors in his visual works. Longer than music videos usually are, even if just slightly, lots of dancing, a street gang situation with MJ playing the central character in love with a hot girl. That apparently was not enough for the VMAs that year either as they gave the choreography award to Suzanne Vega that year. I am not really impressed either. The video is pretty generic and the song offers no real depth anyway either. Nothing interesting in here beyond that statement of affection in the title. Then again I have never been a huge Michael Jackson fan, so if you like him more (like the 200 million who watched this video on YT), it may still be a good watch for you. I give it a thumbs-down though. Not recommended.
