Michael Jackson Site: sites.google.com Play Games Online: sites.google.com “Smooth Criminal” is the seventh single from Michael Jackson’s Bad album (1988). The song contains a fast-paced beat intertwined with Jackson’s lyrics about a woman named Annie, who has been attacked in her apartment by a “smooth” assailant. It was released as a single on October 24, 1988 and peaked at 7 on the Billboard Hot 100.[1] It was re-released on April 10, 2006 as a part of the Visionary: The Video Singles box-set. The re-released Visionary single charted at #19 in the UK. In 2003, the song appeared on the Number Ones greatest hits album. “Smooth Criminal” was presented in a ten-minute long clip in which Jackson dances through a 1930s-style nightclub (known in the film as “Club 30s”). The version of the song used in the clip is different from the album version: the background beats are different, there are several new lyrics (see below), and the song is much longer overall. The version of the video that is usually aired on network television is 4 minutes long and is merely a sped up version of the clip from the film. Jackson briefly moonwalks before the famous anti-gravity lean. The ten minute long “Smooth Criminal” clip is reminiscent of the musical number known as “The Girl Hunt Ballet” which is featured as the final number in the 1952 musical film The Band Wagon starring Fred Astaire and Cyd Charisse. “The Girl Hunt Ballet” is a spoof of Mickey Spillane’s hard-boiled detective novels …
No,

Can’t take my eyes off Michael. There doesn’t need to be any other dancers on stage. To me they just get in the way.

Could someone please please please tell me where they purchased this dvd from, its such a good quality. I am very desperate to own one. I bought the Ultimate Collection 32 dvd set but it was very bad quality from China….
haha true he felt almost on the ground xD
Pause at 0:05 look at the man on the far rights shoe, you can see a cut out which helps them lean
sorry, at 4:21
At 4:23, the guy on the right… look at his feet =S Well, it’s one little mistake, it doesn’t matter, right? I don’t know how I notice that because I’m looking at Michael all the time xD
1:02-1:08 I believe that the man is straightening the white drape hanging in front of Michael. Notice it is waving until he fixed it?
at 1:02 there comes a small man (to the left of MJ)
does something and rans off at 1:08
