8/10
Almost, ALMOST, perfect

I love this music video! Michael Jackson is the king of both music and dancing, and his fashion sense is brilliant as well. The dance and song are both very good, with the song being amazingly well written and the dance being really well choreographed. (But what do you expect? It's Michael Jackson!)

However, I do have some problems with the music video. First off, that weird section in which Michael shatters the ceiling or something, everything goes dark, and it turns into a sort of blues thing. I don't get the point of this part, and usually skip past it.

Additionally, the section after that isn't to great either. It's just a really long instrumental section in which Michael does some really cool, complex dance moves, but doesn't open his mouth once.

Then the video cuts to some random kids who are watching Michael through the windows of the club like stalkers or something, and this just sort of increases the time before we can hear Michael sing again. And even then, it is interrupted by the appearance of random CIA looking dudes who march around the outside of the bar, who Michael shoots with a machine gun before escaping.

So, in a nutshell, the first half of the video is brilliant, but the second half isn't as great, and maybe the video shouldn't have been as long as it was.
