#TBT Michael Jackson doing the Moonwalk at Motown 25

Okay, I know I just did a blogpost about #MichaelJackson less than thirty minutes ago, but I loved to see this man dance. And since it's #TBT (Throwback Thursday) I thought I would post a throwback video, back to when we saw him perform his famous Moonwalk for the first time at Motown 25 in 1983 while performing Billie Jean. 

The song really was about a girl who claimed that MJ was the father of her child. Jackson based it on a woman who used to stalk him, writing him letters about a son she thought was his. Jackson rarely spoke about this woman, but he had a very hard time dealing with this unwanted attention, and he became more reclusive as a result. The song was his way of expressing his feelings without addressing her directly.
