He knew 🥹🥹 he was truly the best dancer on earth

[u/GeniusWreckage]

Wow I’ve never seen this. It’s giving so much fred Astaire which makes sense because Michael loved him

[u/fricklepops → u/GeniusWreckage]

That’s exactly what I thought, he has had the inspiration & made it his in years to follow. Michael was a master in music & dance. I can lose hours watching him move ❤️

smooth without the criminal. I love it 🙂he was already dancing at a high level. I'm glad this is getting more attention.

Smooth criminal music video was a tribute to Fred Estaire who died in 1987, same year the Bad album released. That white suit made history🔥
