There's a new carousel over at the Chelsea Piers sports & entertainment complex in lower Manhattan that plays only Michael Jackson music. My sister told me about it so I took a walk over there on my lunch hour (my office is just a few blocks away) and took a few videos and pictures. This was noon time so it was kind of slow with the mom's and nanny's taking the kiddies for a ride.

Playing PYT (the ride operator was waiting for more kids)...

Here it plays a piece of the Vincent Price part of Thriller and then a slower tempo version of Billie Jean...

I'm embarrassed to admit I don't know what this song is. Someone help me out please...

Thanks for the invitation. I've searched and the articles I come up with don't mention that the carousel only plays MJ music (I mean, like anything else matters, lol). It's located in Pier 62 in Hudson River Park (22nd St).

Looks like they were playing Thriller 25 as all of those songs come from it.
 
You're welcome guys. Aww I know it's a painful time now (this entire year has been) and everyone is missing Michael. Well, this is just a small way that his music is still making people and children happy.
