Remember the Time
This is not one of MJ’s best songs. It was around this time that MJ’s music started to follow trends instead of setting them. This probably has to do with the fact Teddy Riley wrote part of the song with MJ. That’s not to say this isn’t a fun song. It just isn’t in MJ’s best list for me.
John Singleton directed the music video. He uses a lot of rich colors to give us an Egyptian setting.
Notes
-The Melting effects aren’t that good. I’m sure they were effective at the time.
-Tommy Tiny Lister: Yes, that’s him playing the guard trying to capture MJ.
-Iman looks amazing here. She is a very pretty woman, and think she probably looks slight hotter in her Star Trek 6 role than here. But I love her busty outfit.
-The Dance Portion of the video is very impressive and it reminds me of the Coming to America dance number.
-Eddie Murphy in a non-speaking role: Having Murphy here is a kind of a joke because Murphy used to rip into MJ all the time during his stand up acts. His role kind of showed that MJ had a sense of humor.
