Ah yes the History era. This is probably the most gritty and aggressive MJ album. He seemingly got more aggressive with each album from Off the Wall to Thriller to Bad to Dangerous. But this peaked with History, never have we seen MJ so pissed off.
Yep, he did adopt a more aggressive/grittier singing style the older he got, and especially on the HIStory album. I can just imagine him in the studio during songs like “Scream,” “They Don’t Care About Us,” “Earth Song,” or “Tabloid Junkie” stomping, punching the air, throwing stuff, etc. while he’s singing.😂😅
@NedlsWierd You’re right. But I think Invincible is definitely a breath of fresh air in that regard. It felt more soulful and tranquil compared to History.
The amount of hysteria around each MJ album is a level of hysteria that will probably never be reached again! This goes to show how much of a phenomenon he truly was!
@@counterstriker3971 Correct! In this age of digital media, people aren't really lining up to buy albums in the cold rain. That's a BIG part of why something like a MJ album release will never happen again...but the fact that it DID happen with MJ WITHOUT the need for digital or social media is a true testament to him. The greatest of ALL TIME.
i hate how america treated this album. he promoted it mostly in Europe where i was in i 95-98. nobody talked bout his personal life in germany. everyone just loved the music & performances. that's why HIStory was way bigger outside of u.s.
I remember the day I went to a record shop to buy the album “HIStory” after school in the summer of 1995. I was so excited. I had played the CDs in my room over and over again. Good old days! 👑
I remember listing to that album in my moms house when I was a kid. “Will you be there” gave me chills. The lyric …and fight till the end but I’m only human is haunting when I think about his death.

@@trothyding8325 you’re right. I must have gotten confused at some point because the lyric just speaks to the later part of his life so powerfully, particularly to the period after the first accusations.

HIStory was the most impressive comeback in music history. The Album itself is a masterpiece and is not afraid to address controversial issues while allowing an intimate look into the soul of Michael Jackson.
Man lisa looked amazing when she was with him, she looked stunning in that photoshoot and interview and she never looked the same after their breakup 😭
Also a little unknown Michael Jackson fact about this year. Michael was set to perform Man in the Mirror at the Million Man March that October but pulled out of doing it (his handlers probably told him not to do it) . He did donate to the million man March tho.
HIStory is my favorite album of all time... I love everything about Mike speaking up and letting his music do the talking for him. Been listening to it daily since I was 8 years old in 1995...
I can't get over how many times in this video they called Michael the "self-proclaimed" King of Pop. Did anyone count? Lol. He never proclaimed himself the King. He didn't have to.
HIStory is the 1st Michael Jackson album I was able to buy with my own money. Finally a legal adult with my first job. Got my job only a little over a week before HIStory came out. And the VERY first thing I thought to do with my first paycheck is go down to the record store & get my hands on that HIStory. MAN I was HYPED!! All other albums were gifts but this was MINE. It quickly became my FAVORITE Michael album of all time & still is. It's hard to pick favorites with Michael albums. But the tiebreaker for me was the Greatest Hits portion covered all of his previous adult albums & that allowed the new material to be on top of all that. So I had the best of both worlds. The new stuff of HIStory & the history of Off The Wall, Thriller, Bad, & Dangerous. Liked Scream when I heard it but LOVED They Don't Care About Us, the 2nd song, the moment I heard it. I learned so many lessons from that album such as the realness of Tabloid Junkie with the mainstream media. And it was prophetic too because every one of those songs applied to the 2nd witchhunt in 2003 through 2005. That BSTA Tom Sneddon, the cold man. BSTA = Busta? BSDA = Bull Shit District Attorney? SBDA = Santa Barbara District Attorney. An emotional roller coaster ride of RAGE, ANGER, SADNESS, BITTERNESS, PLEADING, RESOLUTION, & RELIEF. Mike went through the Kübler-Ross model of the Stages of Grief pouring it ALL on the wax. Mike CUSSED!! Hahahaha! It started with a SCREAM & ended with a SMILE. THAT'S how you make a comeback & shut down all the haters. HIStory.
I wish Michael could have held on to that 1995 VMAs aesthetic for awhile. He was SO attractive with the short hair. He had a certain swagger during this time, mixed with a bit of a playful Charlie Chaplin vibe. And his smile was off the charts!!!!
I still grieve over that One Night Only special. I always wanted to see him in that kind of setting. 95 started off so good. And of course it ended no so good. But who else could get that much love and attention outside a hospital? Hundreds of people camped out the entire time he was in there. That's amazing.

This Is It was a similar in-place set of concerts even though it was more than one night only.

I remember being super anxious about that HBO concert in 1995, so much that I kept staring at the slot in the TV guide (was 7pm Central Time on HBO Saturday night). Then it got cancelled due to Michael's hospitalization. I was bummed about the concert being cancelled but was relieved when he got out the hospital. I remember the news saying that the concert was delayed, but they cancelled it all together.
10:40 I remember when he sang that with Boyz II Men it was ... last time he sang it live was at the 1986 Grammy awards at the end with the same artists he sang it with a year earlier Ironically he sang that on the same day "We are the world" premiered ten years prior
I think they rehearsed all the songs going to be performed on there Childhood, Dangerous, those two songs are the only ones I know that was going to be performed
I still hate it, to this day, that the only publicity MJ received in the 90s was bad publicity, just because of the change in his image. As a true moonwalker since the beginning of the 90s, MJ could do no wrong. I sometimes cried in my room for all the bad things he was labelled as by the media. Although he created some controversy himself, I still blame the media for his downfall.
The jealous outraged media. Calling him the self proclaimed King Of Pop. Really?? American and the British Media at times were really Garbage. He gave America so much with his work as a recording artist and entertainer. They tried to trash him when he had a dilemma. Disgraceful how they treated him.
HIStory is a very special album to me! In 2011 when I was 9 years old my dad bought it (on CD) because we didn't have any Michael Jackson albums. I still remember when I asked him is this artist still alive and he answered that he died about 2 years ago. When I started lisseng to the album the very first song I heard was Billie Jean. I had never heard something so catchy and magical! That same day I started to lisseng to his other songs and became a fan. Now over a decade later Michael Jackson is still my favorite artist! :)
Even with the short hair, he face still looked like in the Dangerous Era, in the 1993 concerts, and started slowly turning into the HIStory Era in 1996
Shame the album never had a standalone release for Disc 2 with its own conceptual artwork, it really is like Jimmy Jam said his best work to date. I guess they were afraid the album wasn't going to stand on its own sales-wise without the hits to back it up. HIStory is my all-time fav album.
I remember vividly waiting to be one the first to go out and purchase my copy of the HIStory album, when it finally hit store shelves. There were two different versions of this iconic album released. The original release of the HIStory album, which is the one that I still own to this day, is from the original release date, that has the controversial lyrics on the track, They Don't Care About Us. Due to all the controversy behind the lyrics, Michael ended up having to release a second edited version of The HIStory album that did not contain the controversial lyrics of the song, They Don't Care About Us. The original HIStory album release had a red color outline around the hype sticker and the second release of the History album, that included the edited version of the song, They Don't Care About Us, had a tan color outline around the hype sticker. Anyone out there that might be looking for a physical copy of the HIStory album. This is how you can tell the difference between which version that you are getting. Great job on the MJ 1995 year in review video, The Detail. 👌🏾 I really enjoyed it! 😊 I'm looking forward to watching the 1996 MJ year in review video! Keep up the good work! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
His HBO collapse was the beginning of the end. His body was breaking down at an exponential rate since Dangerous. His health only got worse and he knew performing would literally kill him and tried to avoid it as long as possible.
@@lamaudelewis9866 in great shape? Seriously? In this tour he performed under painkillers, he practically stopped singing live. Michael's health was undermined.
This is my favorite series on this channel. The amount of research and attention to detail you put into these videos is unmatched. Thank you so much for what you do. History is probably one of my least fav eras mostly due to the turmoil Michael was dealing with, and it really impacted his sound and content musically. He lost a lot of joy we all knew to love him for, but I completely understand why that was. With that said, his VMA performance is one of his best live performances ever.
+Beza F I sympathize with you on your feelings of the HIStory era. Mike was MAD. Pure MAD. ANGRY. ENRAGED. A looooong way from happy Blame It On The Boogie Mike & the joyous yelp that starts Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough. But I love HIStory. I loved him getting pissed off & just letting all that rage come out in his music. The haters & conspirators deserved it. Mike let his art do the talking. Said everything that needed to be said. I love how the entire tracklist is a progression of his emotional turmoil & him going through the stages of grief. It starts with a SCREAM yet ends with a SMILE. After he gets all of that crap off his chest, he returns to form in relief. That's the beautiful thing about Michael music though. There's always so many eras to pick from. Something for everybody. We were robbed in the 2000s. Imagine what he would have put out in that time period if not for all the witchhunting going on. I STILL hate those Sony execs for their bullshit on Invincible & beyond. All for a doggone catalog. Man...
@@johnlucas1543 I agree with everything you said here. It was awesome to see him defend himself and let out his frustrations. I guess for me, it just pained me to see him in such distress. This time period just reminds me of all that he endured, and it leaves feelings of bittersweetness knowing that this level of pain and stress would ultimately lead to his death.
Je mi smutno Michael byl jak štvané zvíře od bulváru a novinářů to si vůbec nezasloužil, byl to laskavý a citlivý člověk jaký tu kdy byl. Miluji Michaela je to pro mě lidská bytost a čistá duše. Mám k němu velkou úctu a respekt.
Já se často nebráním slzám, když vidím, čím si procházel a jak se k němu lidi chovali 😔 vše jen kvůli penězům.. Je mi ho tak líto i po tolika letech.. Bolí to stále.
@@Janet_87 díky za milou odpověď. Michaela mám ráda pro jeho lidskost a laskavou duši. Věděla jsem že Michael je nevinný protože on byl kluk v těle dospělého muže a to málo kdo pochopil. Chybí mi moc jeho přítomnost. Ještě jednou děkuji moc za vaší odpověď a přeji vám hodně zdraví, štěstí a lásky vám i všem na celém světě všeho dobrého a krásného do budoucna.
Ok...can they STOP calling him the "self-proclaimed" King of Pop? Judas Priest, man...he said HIMSELF it was started by his friends like Princess Diana and Elizabeth Taylor in the 80s. He only started to use that name in the late 80s and early 90s onward after the name STUCK. Why it stuck? HE'S FUCKING MICHAEL JACKSON....anyway, HIStory is amazing and timeless. "Money" is my favorite on that CD.
Always love these videos , so much extensive archival work and finding these rare hard to find clips of the time is like going back in time like a time Machine
Não fazia ideia do quão impactante foi o lançamento do History, eu amo esse álbum e acho que ele merece muito mais reconhecimento, ele colocou muito de si mesmo de seus sentimentos, o álbum vendeu mais de 20 milhões de cópias e as pessoas consideraram um flop na época, enquanto artistas mal conseguem vender 7 milhões nos dias de hoje.
Essa mídia imunda que considerou fracasso, sempre querendo ver ele no buraco, que imundos. Fracasso, um artista que atraia centenas de pessoas aonde quer que ele fosse.
1995 was the most significant year of my childhood, largely because of HIStory. I recently framed my promo poster for the HBO show because it's so special to me.
The HIStory Album was so carefully thought out and so monumental. I wish it got even MORE success than it already did. In my opinion it should’ve been equivalent to Thriller but doesn’t get the same love.
HIStory was amazing. It has its weak points (little Susie, smile), however Stranger in Moscow, They Don’t Care About Us, Earth Song, and History (title track) are all arguably his best work. I wouldn’t say the album is as good as dangerous, but I personally like it better than thriller, off the wall, and invincible. Bad I think it’s tied with. Overall I think HIStory is the best demonstration he still had this unmatchable musical talent, despite the trials and tribulations he had to suffer from at that point.
@@JokerInfinityWar Same here listening to that song at midnight just brings a new feeling or looking up at the stars and hearing his voice is beautiful
MJ The Men w most talented from All over the world still. We love Michael Jackson forever King fan's around the world making him alive..R I.P. king of POP rock n soul
MJ is so loved and will always be loved and be in our heart! Am a big time fan of his, I so love him and love his music. MJ has tried fighting all forms of illness all his life and yet he was strong to keep on through all the allegations against him by the ungrateful people he loved and cared for. God knows why he took Michael early in life at the age of 50, MJ has really suffered and need rest! He has lived the life with many great achievements of a life time and he has fathered his own children and watch them grow to the age of knowing what life is all about. God bless his soul forever. Love you lots MJ.
WOw...It really gutted me,how he got bullied bashed ridiculed..the media was really unfair to him...you know that theres really a conspiracy to put him down.
Thank you for all the great 1995 details! I have always liked the HIStory album. Michael poured all of his raw emotions into it. Thank you The detail for all your hard work once again. :)
@@daryltracy7949 I read somewhere that they had “updated” choreography for “Thriller” with it having an industrial theme, slight update to “Dangerous” with the theme heavily referencing “A Clockwork Orange”, first time performing “Childhood” with Marcel Marceau and “Bad” having different choreography altogether. Not enough time to learn an entire show with blocking and everything.
Thank you so much for this series, I have been on a binge watch since the 1979 video, it's like going through a time machine, so many events that I remember, yet a lot of footage that I've never seen before and things that I didn't know. Love it.
Love the History Era. Of cause when you compare it sales to the "Thriller" and "Bad" albums then "History" did not do those sales numbers, but still it has sold more than 22 million records world wide and that´s still great numbers for most artists. 🙂 The albums promotion was insane and Michael was everywhere when the album was released. 🙂👍
on this video you can see some glimpses of the vitriolic press coverage he has received over the years. that comment about his makeup at 19:08, when he had just suffered a health scare, just goes to show that even the most casual news reports on him were ill intentioned.
I really didn’t pay attention to the 2nd disc of HIStory until like 2001. I was always into the first disc because I didn’t hear most of his old stuff that much until they played it on radio or waiting to see his music videos of MTV or VH1. I’m glad I caught on to a lot of it way before he died because I was a true fan. I remember them showing Scream after his interview with Barbara or whoever it was and he was with Lisa Marie. We all sat in the living room watching. Good days! And I so remember that commercial for the One Night Only concert. Edit: It was Diane Sawyer lol
I love Michael Jackson so much my heart bleeds for him and everything he had to go through watching all of these years makes me happy and sad so many emotions he was so strong he didn't deserve any of the abuse that he went through I wish I could just give him one big hug sadly that will never happen
Makes no sense why History sales were reportedly low when MJ was still so popular as an artist and personality all over the world. By this point Grunge was fading and there was no one to rival MJ (I mean Pocahontas Soundtrack dominating the charts says a lot). Hootie and the Blowfish were good but never generated much excitement or mania. Boybands and Girlbands were not yet ubiquitous. How History was not Number One for the whole year is a mystery, could be some bias and sabotaging involved 🤔
@Alisson Costa But Saturday Night Fever was a double album and was the biggest selling album of all time before Thriller, so the sales slump is definitely not because it was a double album. And it wasn't because it was a Greatest HITS album either because Eagles Greatest Hits is one of top selling albums of all time despite people also owning the originsl albums. Plus the History tour was sold out stadiums globally. Sales should have easily been same as Thriller.
The history album promotion was the biggest promo of an artist the album always stays up to date german bet that performance was best of earth song in my opinion I really regret that the HBO show was never caught up that would have been great
Thanks as always for the wonderful research and detail work you do for us MJ lovers. I am Italian and I noticed however that the subtitles in this video were not in time with the images. Pictures flowed faster than written words. Never happened before. I hope this problem does not arise in the future as it is difficult to understand the dialogues

I agree. Disc 1 was security for sales after all things MJ went through.
Michael Jackson should have called this is it History 2
I remember vividly waiting to be one the first to go out and purchase my copy of the HIStory album, when it finally hit store shelves. There were two different versions of this iconic album released. The original release of the HIStory album, which is the one that I still own to this day, is from the original release date, that has the controversial lyrics on the track, They Don't Care About Us. Due to all the controversy behind the lyrics, Michael ended up having to release a second edited version of The HIStory album that did not contain the controversial lyrics of the song, They Don't Care About Us. The original HIStory album release had a red color outline around the hype sticker and the second release of the History album, that included the edited version of the song, They Don't Care About Us, had a tan color outline around the hype sticker. Anyone out there that might be looking for a physical copy of the HIStory album. This is how you can tell the difference between which version that you are getting. Great job on the MJ 1995 year in review video, The Detail. 👌🏾 I really enjoyed it! 😊 I'm looking forward to watching the 1996 MJ year in review video! Keep up the good work! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
His HBO collapse was the beginning of the end. His body was breaking down at an exponential rate since Dangerous. His health only got worse and he knew performing would literally kill him and tried to avoid it as long as possible.
History tour MJ was in great shape
@@lamaudelewis9866 in great shape? Seriously? In this tour he performed under painkillers, he practically stopped singing live. Michael's health was undermined.
@king You are so incredibly sad. Hit the wall dude
@king Are you talking about yourself?;)
@@starpixelproduction7571 I think he's talking about chunky ass elvis
This is my favorite series on this channel. The amount of research and attention to detail you put into these videos is unmatched. Thank you so much for what you do. History is probably one of my least fav eras mostly due to the turmoil Michael was dealing with, and it really impacted his sound and content musically. He lost a lot of joy we all knew to love him for, but I completely understand why that was. With that said, his VMA performance is one of his best live performances ever.
+Beza F I sympathize with you on your feelings of the HIStory era. Mike was MAD. Pure MAD. ANGRY. ENRAGED.
A looooong way from happy Blame It On The Boogie Mike & the joyous yelp that starts Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough.
But I love HIStory. I loved him getting pissed off & just letting all that rage come out in his music.
The haters & conspirators deserved it. Mike let his art do the talking. Said everything that needed to be said.
I love how the entire tracklist is a progression of his emotional turmoil & him going through the stages of grief.
It starts with a SCREAM yet ends with a SMILE. After he gets all of that crap off his chest, he returns to form in relief.
That's the beautiful thing about Michael music though. There's always so many eras to pick from. Something for everybody.
We were robbed in the 2000s. Imagine what he would have put out in that time period if not for all the witchhunting going on. I STILL hate those Sony execs for their bullshit on Invincible & beyond. All for a doggone catalog. Man...
@@johnlucas1543 I agree with everything you said here. It was awesome to see him defend himself and let out his frustrations. I guess for me, it just pained me to see him in such distress. This time period just reminds me of all that he endured, and it leaves feelings of bittersweetness knowing that this level of pain and stress would ultimately lead to his death.
Every single moment is the best gift of Michael Jackson 🌟🙏👑
oh so thankful for this channel. HIStory is a significant piece of art. the older it gets the better. it gets .
Je mi smutno Michael byl jak štvané zvíře od bulváru a novinářů to si vůbec nezasloužil, byl to laskavý a citlivý člověk jaký tu kdy byl. Miluji Michaela je to pro mě lidská bytost a čistá duše. Mám k němu velkou úctu a respekt.
Já se často nebráním slzám, když vidím, čím si procházel a jak se k němu lidi chovali 😔 vše jen kvůli penězům.. Je mi ho tak líto i po tolika letech.. Bolí to stále.
@@Janet_87 díky za milou odpověď. Michaela mám ráda pro jeho lidskost a laskavou duši. Věděla jsem že Michael je nevinný protože on byl kluk v těle dospělého muže a to málo kdo pochopil. Chybí mi moc jeho přítomnost. Ještě jednou děkuji moc za vaší odpověď a přeji vám hodně zdraví, štěstí a lásky vám i všem na celém světě všeho dobrého a krásného do budoucna.
I remember 95-96 so well I was about to be in middle school and I was so happy to be a MJ fan
The Micheal review videos have become a must watch before bed.
Me too😄
Ok...can they STOP calling him the "self-proclaimed" King of Pop? Judas Priest, man...he said HIMSELF it was started by his friends like Princess Diana and Elizabeth Taylor in the 80s. He only started to use that name in the late 80s and early 90s onward after the name STUCK. Why it stuck? HE'S FUCKING MICHAEL JACKSON....anyway, HIStory is amazing and timeless. "Money" is my favorite on that CD.
I think it was started by the press. It was clearly true.
@@brittaolson6550 if you think anything the press says about him is true then...
I love Michael Jackson so much 💜
Poor Michael .. His sad eyes .. He was the target of the media .. People are monster. He couldn't defend himself
Always love these videos , so much extensive archival work and finding these rare hard to find clips of the time is like going back in time like a time Machine
Thank you! I hope it feels like that ✨
Não fazia ideia do quão impactante foi o lançamento do History, eu amo esse álbum e acho que ele merece muito mais reconhecimento, ele colocou muito de si mesmo de seus sentimentos, o álbum vendeu mais de 20 milhões de cópias e as pessoas consideraram um flop na época, enquanto artistas mal conseguem vender 7 milhões nos dias de hoje.
Essa mídia imunda que considerou fracasso, sempre querendo ver ele no buraco, que imundos. Fracasso, um artista que atraia centenas de pessoas aonde quer que ele fosse.
I love that album 💖
It’s the best selling double disc album
History album it’s a masterpiece.. with so much to discover every time you listen it
It's probably my favorite MJ album. That says a lot...
I wish MJ was still alive😢😢😢
Same. 😭💜
He would've been 64 this year!
Me too
Michael jackson the greatest person on earth
His name will never die
1995 was the most significant year of my childhood, largely because of HIStory.
I recently framed my promo poster for the HBO show because it's so special to me.
The HIStory Album was so carefully thought out and so monumental. I wish it got even MORE success than it already did. In my opinion it should’ve been equivalent to Thriller but doesn’t get the same love.
This is what resilience looks like. Generations will learn learn so much from this one man.
Tabloid junkie is one Of my fav song on the album ❤️
HIStory was amazing. It has its weak points (little Susie, smile), however Stranger in Moscow, They Don’t Care About Us, Earth Song, and History (title track) are all arguably his best work. I wouldn’t say the album is as good as dangerous, but I personally like it better than thriller, off the wall, and invincible. Bad I think it’s tied with. Overall I think HIStory is the best demonstration he still had this unmatchable musical talent, despite the trials and tribulations he had to suffer from at that point.
Weakpoints please go listen to those two songs again please🤣🤣
Lil Susie weak? It's one of my favs and also very different from his other work, guess we are not all the same
@@JokerInfinityWar Same here listening to that song at midnight just brings a new feeling or looking up at the stars and hearing his voice is beautiful
Didn't even read the full comment. You wild lol
@@JokerInfinityWar lil Susie ain't weak but smile is in my opinion
I remember that HIStory promo as a kid and being so much in awe. My dad had the album as well.
Your a legend bro. Seriously we appreciate you a lot ❤️
He's so dreamy
he was so strong & resilient. rip
MJ The Men w most talented from All over the world still. We love Michael Jackson forever King fan's around the world making him alive..R I.P. king of POP rock n soul
Scream is a crazy ass way to return
MJ is so loved and will always be loved and be in our heart! Am a big time fan of his, I so love him and love his music. MJ has tried fighting all forms of illness all his life and yet he was strong to keep on through all the allegations against him by the ungrateful people he loved and cared for. God knows why he took Michael early in life at the age of 50, MJ has really suffered and need rest! He has lived the life with many great achievements of a life time and he has fathered his own children and watch them grow to the age of knowing what life is all about. God bless his soul forever. Love you lots MJ.
Love when these Year In Reviews drop!
WOw...It really gutted me,how he got bullied bashed ridiculed..the media was really unfair to him...you know that theres really a conspiracy to put him down.
Michael Jackson history is the best history in life 👑🙏🌎
Thank you for all the great 1995 details! I have always liked the HIStory album. Michael poured all of his raw emotions into it. Thank you The detail for all your hard work once again. :)
Videos keep getting better and better! Thank you the detail!!
There’s no way that he could’ve done that HBO show. Rehearsals started on the 4th for a show on the 10th?? Insane
That's what I thought. That's not even a week
@@daryltracy7949 I read somewhere that they had “updated” choreography for “Thriller” with it having an industrial theme, slight update to “Dangerous” with the theme heavily referencing “A Clockwork Orange”, first time performing “Childhood” with Marcel Marceau and “Bad” having different choreography altogether. Not enough time to learn an entire show with blocking and everything.
Amazing how MJ's presence shook everything where he went
Thank you so much for this series, I have been on a binge watch since the 1979 video, it's like going through a time machine, so many events that I remember, yet a lot of footage that I've never seen before and things that I didn't know. Love it.
My birth year lets go. Whats crazy is some of these clips feel familiar but as a infant you don’t realize you are watching a super star.
I absolutely love these year reviews. Love them
Mann, TBH all of his album is litterally a wholesome, i love them all but HIStory is my top, there is something in it.
@king ow jeez , a dumpshit like u doest need any attention dear, stay on your line, what a seeker
@king So that's your name?
Hello then!;)
He is the king of pop he always will. No one will ever pass him. Not in this life or ever. I love you Micheal jackson
Mj unleashed the beast w History! He was tired of the BS 💯🐐
Love the History Era. Of cause when you compare it sales to the "Thriller" and "Bad" albums then "History" did not do those sales numbers, but still it has sold more than 22 million records world wide and that´s still great numbers for most artists. 🙂 The albums promotion was insane and Michael was everywhere when the album was released. 🙂👍
Thank you for this report, just playing his History album, love it 😁👑🌻❤
Thank you!
Hello 👋 dear, how are you doing?
me encantan estos videos, de verdad se agradece muchisimo la investigacion, soy un gran fan de El Detalle, muy bueno🙏❤
Love the videos always 🔥 Michael has always been great and an inspiration to everyone
on this video you can see some glimpses of the vitriolic press coverage he has received over the years. that comment about his makeup at 19:08, when he had just suffered a health scare, just goes to show that even the most casual news reports on him were ill intentioned.
This channel turned me from a casual fan into a superfan
I really didn’t pay attention to the 2nd disc of HIStory until like 2001. I was always into the first disc because I didn’t hear most of his old stuff that much until they played it on radio or waiting to see his music videos of MTV or VH1. I’m glad I caught on to a lot of it way before he died because I was a true fan. I remember them showing Scream after his interview with Barbara or whoever it was and he was with Lisa Marie. We all sat in the living room watching. Good days! And I so remember that commercial for the One Night Only concert.
Edit: It was Diane Sawyer lol
I love Michael Jackson so much my heart bleeds for him and everything he had to go through watching all of these years makes me happy and sad so many emotions he was so strong he didn't deserve any of the abuse that he went through I wish I could just give him one big hug sadly that will never happen
Thanks For The Detail.
I love the year 1995, apart from that year my favorite album "HIStory: Past, Present and future book 1" I love that era, it's just wonderful
MJ's 'HISTory' was amazing....it would've sold more if it was a single disc project.
Makes no sense why History sales were reportedly low when MJ was still so popular as an artist and personality all over the world. By this point Grunge was fading and there was no one to rival MJ (I mean Pocahontas Soundtrack dominating the charts says a lot). Hootie and the Blowfish were good but never generated much excitement or mania. Boybands and Girlbands were not yet ubiquitous. How History was not Number One for the whole year is a mystery, could be some bias and sabotaging involved 🤔
@B_av8 it was that good tho next
Isn’t it the highest selling double album in history?
@Alisson Costa But Saturday Night Fever was a double album and was the biggest selling album of all time before Thriller, so the sales slump is definitely not because it was a double album. And it wasn't because it was a Greatest HITS album either because Eagles Greatest Hits is one of top selling albums of all time despite people also owning the originsl albums. Plus the History tour was sold out stadiums globally. Sales should have easily been same as Thriller.
The history album promotion was the biggest promo of an artist the album always stays up to date german bet that performance was best of earth song in my opinion I really regret that the HBO show was never caught up that would have been great
the amount of jobs MJ created is amazing 👏
I love the detail......well done, great work. We support you all the way
Oh my goodness I remember that History album commercial when it would come on television🥰😇🥰😇🥰😇🥰😇🥰
FINALLY THE HISTORY ERA AAAAA 🥺
I look forward to these videos every Thursday!!!

Thanks as always for the wonderful research and detail work you do for us MJ lovers.
I am Italian and I noticed however that the subtitles in this video were not in time with the images. Pictures flowed faster than written words. Never happened before.
I hope this problem does not arise in the future as it is difficult to understand the dialogues
YESSSSS I LOVE THE YEAR REVIEWS
