Very underrated song and visuals from MJ here as it all holds up so well in so many aspects. The art direction and effects are wildly understated and subtle but thats what makes them so good as this is the equal opposite of Thriller in that respect. Lyrics still stand strong. A+ would listen again. Prompt dispatch. Good seller.
Bonus fact:
MJ is so petty that he tried to turn Janets vocals down in the mix so his voice would appear more powerful but she caught it and wasn't having it.
