How I See It.....

Ok, I love Michael Jackson.  Ask anyone I know, this is not a secret and why would it be.  Ever since I was 7 I was doing MJ dance moves in the carport at my house rocking "Bad" or "Thriller" on my boom-box... on tape.  I know that lost of bands such as Fall Out Boy and Ailen Ant Farm have shown there love for the King of Pop by covering his songs and doing awesome jobs at that, I have a deal with Chris Brown's "She Ain't You"  My wife and I had this conversation today.

Wife:  I heard a song by some R&B singer yesterday and it sounded like a Michael Jackson song.
Me: Really?  Was it any good?
Wife:  Na, it was like MJ's song, like, he took hi song and changed the words and thats really that was it that was different.
Me: Hummm....  What song was it?
Wife:  *Humming a few bars"
Me:  Human Nature?
Wife:  Yeah..

As I took out my smartphone and did my googling I stated getting rather anxious since "Human Nature" is my favorite song by the King of Pop.  I don't know what it is about this song (I am misting up just listening to it) that I love, but this Chris Brown should have picked a different song.  I am glad that Mr. Brown has shown his admiration for his inspiration, but this is not the song you should be sampling for a song about a girl that ain't her.


Coming to grips on this, I don't think I will be ok with any artist no matter how much I enjoy there music incorporating Michael Jacksons music into there own.
