It was the certainty of “ Off the Wall“ and its sequel“Thriller“ that this was the music we wanted to hear. He knew, too, that this was a music we wanted to (52) ( visual), to see formalised and set loo

In a sense, he was loosing his transformation upon the rest of us, expecting us to be caught up in the excite (53) the music caused in him, and we were.Michael Jackson came to be synonymous with transformation-ultimately, with an eerie stasis that comes from seeking transformation all t

Yet somehow all the changes always take us (55) to the album in which Michael Jackson grew up.（分数：20.00）填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1
