Everyone will know the wonderful song by the King of Pop Michael Jackson "Billie Jean", the song that many of us sing, and we get to dance when they play it, well, this song as many will know has a very deep story, a story that Michael himself tells. If you are one of those people who have no idea of the complex and crazy story that hides this song, I invite you to read this post:
◎Historia/History◎
Billie Jean ha sido compuesta por Michael en los años 80, para este entonces Michael ya tenia una gigantesca popularidad como solista, por lo cual tenia varios fanáticos. Aquel mismo año Michael recibió la carta de una adolescente Fan en la que mencionaba "-Que él es el papá de su hijo-".
Al inicio Michael se lo tomo en broma y desconocía las cartas de dicha fanática loca, sin embargo las cartas comenzaron a llegar mas constante, en la que muchas mencionaban cosas como "Te amo mucho Michael", "Nuestro hijo tiene los mismo ojos que tú", "Vuelve, deseo estar a tu lado", evidentemente dichos mensajes de la seguidora intranquilo al vocalista frecuentemente.
Sin embargo... El caso se puso mucho peor una vez que a Michael le llego una carta con fotos de se graduación (Fotos que solo tiene el núcleo familiar de Michael), hasta recibió una arma de fuego en la que al lado de la carta mencionaba "Michael por favor toma esta arma y suicídate, matare a nuestro hijo y además lo hare yo, de esta forma nos reuniremos en el cielo", sin lugar a dudas este caso asusto y preocupo mucho al Sr. Michael, pero nada de que preocuparse mi amigo lector, al tiempo Michael se entero que esta "Fan" padecía de desórdenes psicológicos, y dichos inconvenientes causaba imaginaciones en la chica.
Michael por tener dicha vivencia extraña, y perturbadora, los inspira producir una canción con el nombre de "Billie Jean", música que la integro en su álbum "Thriller".
Billie Jean was composed by Michael in the 80's, by this time Michael already had a huge popularity as a soloist, so he had many fans. That same year Michael received a letter from a teenage fan in which she mentioned "-that he is the father of her child-".
At the beginning Michael took it as a joke and was unaware of the letters from this crazy fan, however the letters began to arrive more and more constantly, in which many mentioned things like "I love you very much Michael", "Our son has the same eyes as you", "Come back, I want to be by your side", evidently these messages from the follower made the vocalist uneasy frequently.
However... The case got much worse once Michael received a letter with pictures of his graduation (pictures that only Michael's family has), he even received a firearm in which next to the letter he mentioned "Michael please take this gun and kill yourself, I will kill our son and I will do it too, this way we will meet in heaven", without a doubt this case scared and worried Mr. Michael a lot, but nothing to worry about, he was very worried. Michael, but nothing to worry about my friend reader, after a while Michael found out that this "Fan" suffered from psychological disorders, and these problems caused the girl's imaginations.
Michael for having this strange and disturbing experience, inspires them to produce a song with the name of "Billie Jean", music that he integrated in his album "Thriller".
Billie Jean llego en el puesto 58° de las 500 mejores canciones que han existido, y gracias al Álbum Thriller, obtuvo un Grammy.
Aunque Michael siempre intento ocultar la verdadera historia, el cuenta que su inspiración de Billie Jean viene por su infancia "Es un poco anónima. Representa a muchas chicas, a las que solían llamar 'groupies' en los años 60. Ellas se colocaban alrededor de las puertas del backstage, y tenían una relación con cualquier banda que viniese a su ciudad. Creo que escribí esto por experiencia con mis hermanos cuando yo era pequeño. Había un montón de 'Billie Jeans', cada muchacha afirmó que su hijo estaba relacionado con uno de mis hermanos". Esas fueron las palabras del Cantante.
Y se estarán preguntando, ¿Qué es Groupie"? Pues aquí te lo respondo.
Groupie es un término slang que hace referencia al fan de un músico, celebridad o grupo de música en especial que sigue a esta persona o banda a medida que está de gira o que asiste a tantas apariciones públicas como le es viable, principalmente con la esperanza de llegar a conocerlos.
Billie Jean reached the 58th position of the 500 greatest songs ever, and thanks to the album Thriller, she won a Grammy.
Although Michael always tried to hide the real story, he says that his inspiration for Billie Jean comes from his childhood "She's a bit anonymous. She represents a lot of girls, who used to be called 'groupies' in the '60s. They would hang around backstage doors, and have a relationship with any band that came to their town. I think I wrote this from experience with my brothers when I was growing up. There were a lot of 'Billie Jeans', every girl claimed that her son was related to one of my brothers." Those were the Singer's words.
And you maybe wondering, what is Groupie"? Well, here's the answer.
Groupie is a slang term that refers to a fan of a particular musician, celebrity or music group who follows that person or band as they tour or attends as many public appearances as is feasible, mainly in the hope of getting to know them.
♫Canción Y letra/Song & lyrics♫
She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene
I said don't mind, but what do you mean, I am the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round?
She said I am the one, who will dance on the floor in the round
She told me her name was Billie Jean, as she caused a scene
Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round
People always told me be careful of what you do
And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
And mother always told me be careful of who you love
And be careful of what you do 'cause the lie becomes the truth
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son
For forty days and forty nights
The law was on her side
But who can stand when she's in demand
Her schemes and plans
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round
So take my strong advice, just remember to always think twice
(Do think twice, do think twice)
She told my baby we'd danced 'til three, then she looked at me
Then showed a photo my baby cried his eyes were like mine (oh, no)
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round, baby
People always told me be careful of what you do
And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
She came and stood right by me
Just the smell of sweet perfume
This happened much too soon
She called me to her room
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son
She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son
She says I am the one
You know what you did, (she says he is my son) breaking my heart babe
She says I am the one
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover (don't Billie Jean)
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover.
