On this day 52 years ago, one of the greatest entertainers of our time was born in Gary, Indiana. That extraordinary talent belonged to Michael Joseph Jackson. It would be a near impossibility to write or list what his musical legacy has meant to me or the countless other fans. There’s simply so much that could be said in this post about The King of Pop, but instead I’ve decided to let his music say it all. Below are just a few of my Michael Jackson faves.
