While doing a little late night surfing of my many favorite topics, I randomly came across the following. Perhaps some of you in the US have seen it already?

My brother first saw MJ perform it at the Motown Awards Ceremony (1981?).
He was so mesmerized by the dance that he learned every move!
At the time, MJ was at not even at the height of his already stellar fame. My brother's 'imitation' dance was such a hit, the audience, thinking this was the Real MJ, ran to the stage asking for his autograph when he was finished! Despite the tragedy of his life and death, the true talent of Michael Jackson has never gone unnoticed or unappreciated. Imitation is the highest form of flattery:
