Stranger in Moscow Appreciation Thread

Stunning. I love every aspect of this song, the lyrics, the vocals, the rawness.
The short film was so well suited to the song as well. It's a crime more people don't know about this masterpiece.
It's simply 5 minutes and 44 seconds of utter perfection
 
I hate how badly it performed in America on the top 100. It deserves to be at least a top 10 hit.
 
It's a true 'masterpiece'. But sometimes masterpieces take a long time to be truly appreciated by the wider public.

For me, it's work like this that cement Michael's genius as a writer and creator.

The whole package surrounding SIM - the lyrics, the music, the production, the video, the way it is delivered - makes it more than 'just music'. For me it takes it into the realms of high art.
