?uestlove Remembers The Times: 132 Michael Jackson Memories

Okayplayer . — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 21:34:45 -0000

1. i remember the first time i saw you do the robot on soul train in 73.
i was a 2 year old. but my memory serves me WELL. so well i spent the
next 2 years performing that dance at EVERY church function.

2. i remember the time when my parents let my sister go see you guys at
the Looking Through The Windows tour of that same year. She purchased
2 black and white 8x10 photos of the group in concert.

3.i remember thinking you were a real chubby fat kid based on how the
photo is stretched on 71's Third Album

4. i remember making my sister angry when i took her collector's stamps
and licked them and added them to the back cover collage of the ABC
album cover

5. i remember asking a complete stranger to buy me a record player and
records at my father's show, the next night she came back with rufus'
"dance with me" on 45, neil sedaka's "bad blood" on 45, and my first
J5 "Looking Through The Windows". surprisingly i DIDN'T get in
trouble like i did when i asked a stranger for a quarter to play
"Brick House" on the jukebox at a corner store.

6. i remember my aunt karen giving me the jackson test by taking the Get
It Together album cover and testing me by pointing (*points* "jackie!"
*point* "marrron!")

7. i remember not understanding how you looked like a kid (like me) on
the first 4 albums, but then on G.I.T. you went into phase two and
became the tall adult pre Off The Wall MJ (actually now that im grown
i will say the teen mike really didn't hit until Moving Violation in
75 but i was 3 then what did i know)
