Trivia

The video received controversy for its final four minutes, in which Jackson performs suggestive dance moves (including grabbing his crotch and unzipping his pants) and breaks windows. He apologized for the video. See more »

Goofs

When Michael sings on the Statue of Liberty torch, he wears a sleeveless tank top and a white long-sleeved outer tee-shirt. In one shot the white tee-shirt is hanging down by his elbow so part of his arm is exposed, yet in the next shot the shirt is pulled up on his shoulder so the arm is no longer visible. See more »

Cool Music Video
10 July 2001 | by (Surrey, B.C.) – See all my reviews

I like this music video because it is one of my favorite songs and the choreography is great. Michael Jackson is one of my favorite singers and he is the best. Hope Michael has cool music videos coming up because he is the coolest singer on earth and he is THE KING OF POP!
