Hmm, not really a secret message this one. But sometimes evil hides in plain sight. Look at Rolling Stones gigs.
Okay, have you noticed it yet? Do you think it is the excessive use of buckles in Michael Jackson black suit. When you think about it, only one form of clothing actually uses buckles like this. A strait jacket. That this album cover is hinting to us is that Jacko is actually mad. Well who’d have thought? But not, that’s not it. Look again…
White, black and red are the predominant colours. JUST LIKE A TABLOID NEWSPAPER. Michael is trying to tell us that from this moment on his life will be lived as some sort of ghastly soap opera in the British tabloid press, and thus is pleading with us to not be complicit in this cruelty. Again a fine theory, but one which credits the so called King Of Pop with too much intelligence. Would that there was a Bastille Day of Pop and I could decapitate him.
Maybe a little bit of work on the album cover will stress what this secret hidden meaning is. Lets fade out Michael a touch:
There, see the secret meaning now?
THIS ALBUM IS BAD. DO NOT BUY IT.
This time you can’t say you weren’t warned.
