Michael Jackson: An Overlooked classic…
Leaving aside all the hysteria that surrounds Michael Jackson, he still remains a great pop songwriter.
Here is one of his most over looked singles, ‘Stranger In Moscow’.
According to Jackson, he wrote the song while on tour in Russia.
The song was a successful European hit but is all too forgotten because of the dance remixes that overplayed the original version.
Here’s the video - which might I add captures the essence of isolation and loneliness, beautifully.
