Well, Farnell, prepare to be hammered if they figured out what MJ means ...

Not by me.

But some people won't like you acknowleding that MJ's music has staying power, especially late period MJ.

Combined with the smooth jazz approach ... this could get ugly.

Cheers,

Rob

Yeah we were just jamming and I pulled out the camera!

I just love that song. I really like the Floetry Live version even better. The song was written by Marsha Ambrosius from floetry!
