"I played Michael Jackson Thriller in public at the piano in St Pancras Train Station. Love creating this arrangement as it has so many classic parts, and a brilliant bass line. Played before the Arsenal Brentford game back in February - check out the little kid bopping to the rhythm at the end!"

From Instagram:
"Tiger Shroff, an actor known for his dance moves, posted a video of himself dancing, not to an MJ hit but to a rather more unexpected pick - Ranveer Shingh's Khalibali from "Padmaavat," as a tribute to the dance legend."

Watch The Struts play unplugged versions of Oasis and Michael Jackson classics

The tracks come from new Struts EP Unplugged At EastWest - as the band also announce a limited edition timepiece

www.loudersound.com

"We loved teaming up with Taylor Guitars to play this intimate, unplugged set at the legendary EastWest Studios in LA," says Struts frontman Luke Spiller. "Not only did we get to play a few new originals, but myself and Adam both chose a special cover that embodies our individual introductions to music."

@Hot_Street just posted this video but I think it needs to be on this thread, also.

Not sure about this one. The mega mix is too fast, imo. Otoh, the skill on display here is fabulously impressive.

Cool swim suits.

@hope I guess you've seen this already?

"The gold medal winning Russian duet of Natalia Ishchenko and Svetlana Romashina not only impressed the world with their incredible technique but also offered a beautiful homage to the King of Pop Michael Jackson in their "They Don't Care About Us" technical routine at the London 2012 Synchronised Swimming competition."
