Il y a dix ans aujourd'hui, l'inimitable Michael Jackson quittait la guenille qui le faisait tant souffrir. Quel qu'il fut à la ville, on en dit tant de mal... il fut et demeure un monstre de la scène jamais égalé.
Un hommage mérité avec Billie Jean, dans une première version, une performance léchée jusqu'au bout des ongles, sans jamais faire semblant, comme il aimait se produire, à fond ! C'est sa chanson que je préfère.
Rien à jeter ! RIP King of Pop !
She was more like a beauty queen
From a movie scene
I said,
"Don't mind, but what do you mean / I am the one
Who will dance, on the floor, in the round"
She said / I am the one
Who will dance, on the floor, in the round
She told me her name was Billie Jean
As she caused a scene
Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one
Who will dance, on the floor, in the round
People always told me, "Be careful of what you do.
And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts."
And mother always told me, "A-be careful of who you love,
And be careful of what you do
'Cause the lie becomes the truth."
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that / I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one
But the kid is not my son
For forty days and for forty nights
Law was on her side
But who can stand
When she's in demand
Her schemes and plans
'Cause we danced, on the floor, in the round
So take my strong advice
Just remember to always think twice
(Do think twice, do think twice.)
She told,
"My baby, we'd danced 'til three."
Then she looked at me
Then showed a photo of a baby cry
His eyes looked like mine, oh, no
Do a dance, on the floor, in the round, baby
A-people always told me :
"Be careful of what you do and don't go around breaking young girls' hearts."
(Don't break no heart)
A-but she came and stood right by me
And just the smell of sweet perfume
And this happened much too soon
And she called me to her room
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that / I am the one
But the kid is not my son
(No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.)
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that / I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says / I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one
But the kid is not my son
No, no, no
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that / I am the one
(No, there's not me, baby.)
But the kid is not my son
(No, no, no, no, no, no, no.)
She says / I am the one (No, babe.)
But the kid is not my son, no, no, no
She says I am the one
You know what you did
She says he is my son
Breaking my heart, babe
She says I am the one
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
She is the one
Billie Jean is not my lover
She is the one
Don't call me Billie Jean
Billie Jean is not my lover
She is the one
She stumbled onto the scene
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
