this is masterful showmanship. that interplay between authoritarian and vulnerable. letting you in, you drop your guard and then he grabs you and takes you.

its something putin does. he'll do all stuff where he's stroking a kitten and then he'll go do a judo.

to bring it back to my inevitably grubby level, its also the key to female sexuality; that interplay- and sometimes even ambiguity- between sensuality and dominance.

jackson's voice is bizarre. all that breath and those gasps. there's a demonic quality to it. his tone and particularly his vibrato are really gorgeous.

His Super Bowl show's the stuff of legend.

That gets more and more pronounced as time goes on too till the whole performance is just a series of tics; grunts squeals hiccups, gasps

A large part of Princes problem with MJ must have been that MJ was the ultimate insider. A child star in the most successful black owned record label of them all. Royalty. An actual prince. Working with Quincey Jones. In the grand tradition. And Prince was the ultimate Outsider. From the middle of fucking nowhere. Hicksville. Where they don't even have any black people.

hey!
