A really good quote that ties up why Michael is one of a kind

[Mister_Jay_Tee]

From French Dancing Duo Les Twins:

...We love Michael.

And even though we love him, he is not seen in our dancing.

There are a lot of people we appreciate but did not influence us as dancers.

It is more about how mentally we connected with them and the power to actually want to become who we were meant to be (like they did).

That is exactly the attitude MJ had.

Michael's impact on people's lives has always seemed incredible to me. Some he inspired to sing, dance, engage in social activities. Others just become happier. Experienced it for myself.

I can't remember who said it but they said that Michael Jackson isn't someone who comes around once in a lifetime. Michael Jackson is someone who comes around once and only once.

As musician worldclass, as singer one of a kind, as a dancer the best.

Kenny Ortega in the AEG-trial asked how he would decribe Michael in short words.

Michael Jackson also inspired others in the way they walk.

For example, @filmandmusic walks to the fridge in the same way Michael Jackson walks on stage.

It’s not as philosophical as all the rest of them but

“let it simmer”

Firstly I say it on a regular basis about random things but I also think it sums him up to a T - he knows what his audience wants, he knows how to build them up and then give it to them at the right time. He knew he was the shit.

Yes!

Firstly I say it on a regular basis about random things but I also think it sums him up to a T [...]

Exactly so.

I would add in the rest of it - 'Let it bathe in the moonlight'. For me it's kinda spiritual, a bit whimsical, also romantic, quite funny, wise, visionary, beautiful ...

Not too sure if this qualifies based on your thread title but I love it anyway.
