I was way too young to remember this commercial, but I stumbled upon it recently and think it's kinda/sorta awesome. I didn't even realize until a little while later that the little kid who dances with Michael and the Jackson brothers is Alfonso Ribeiro, aka Carlton Banks from Fresh Prince of Bel Air. Even funnier that he never gave up the MJ love in adult life. It must be cool to have this on your resume, just like I envy Courteney Cox for being the girl Bruce Springsteen chose in the audience to come up on-stage and dance with him during the "Dancing In The Dark" video.
A friend of mine actually thought MJ was singing "You're a horny generation" when later it becomes clear he meant "You're a whole new generation." I could see that. Either interpretation works for me.

TOP 5 OF THE OX
Chicago based Nachtmystium goes back to their roots with a 4 song EP, Doomsday Derelicts which melts my face off. "Hellish Overdose" is the jam to crank up while floating down the Russian River drinking PBR.
Seattle based Black Breath released their first 4 song EP, Razor To Oblivion. This thrash-core is just what I'm into right now. Its kind of like cooking up speed metal and hardcore, and injecting it straight into my jugular. The title track, "Razor To Oblivion" is my #1 on the EP.
Katharsis is from Germany. The album is called Fourth Reich. 5 song album. Most songs are over 10 minutes. Same old Katharsis, ripping my guts out of my throat black metal. Album is so brutal. "Eucharistick Funereal" is my top song. I felt like I needed to go burn down a church to calm down after I listened to this record for the first time.
Xasthur's latest masterpiece, All Reflections Drained is mostly instrumental, and it is just as depressing as the rest of Xasthur's albums. SO GOOD. Not a great BBQ record, but super good to light some candles to, run a bath, and hold a toaster above your head.
Cold Cave a.k.a Wesley Eishold releases the super limited 12" Edsel & Ruby. This is a guilty pleasure. It sounds like if The Cure's Head On The Door, and Joy Division's Closer pumped out a kid on vinyl. The first song "Love Comes Close" is going to be on my record player way too long. It kind of makes me want to see if I can get to 2nd base with anybody on my couch. The DIY sleeve also makes me want to use the word cute...... WTF?

NightraiN's Top 5 Michael Jackson Moments
5. I think I liked Michael Jackson best in his Janet Jackson phase(s), and McCauly Culkin in his Home Alone years, before all the nasty lawsuits... for example, "Black Or White" and the respective (not respectful) parodies...
4. MJ makes his South Park appearance... Shamonah he HE!
3. A little known fact: The lyrics to this song will actually make you dumber... but it is still a catchy-ass tune....
2. "Billie Jean" is by far my favorite MJ song, so here is a live version... dance-moves included...
1. And then there is the epic, and otherworldly, "Captain Eo," which I am proud to say I tolerated in its entirety through 3D glasses... MY obvious #1 MJ moment... Shamonah!
