Short but nice MJ story here.
I work in Tesco's on the checkouts, was working today and was a boring day as usual and suddenly this kid comes up to me with 2 albums, the kid couldn't have been more than 7 years old, and the albums he was buying? Bad and Off The Wall! I was amazed and delighted! Im 22 years old and I wasn't old enough to appreciate Mike at his peak, so this kid hasn't probably seen too much of MJ except for listening to his songs, so it really pleased me that someone so young was buying his albums. I asked him what was his favourite song and he said Thriller. His mum came to my till not long after and she said he had all of Mike's albums except Bad & OTW & he was obsessed with MJ. It made my day knowing MJ was appealing to a new generation of fans, some not even born when Vince came out.
Just thought Id share that all with you's
