近日YOUTUBE官方发布了已故天王 MICHAEL JACKSON的遗作"BEHIND THE MASK"的全新音乐录音带。此次发布的录音带是由新老影像及MICHAEL JACKSON的生前片段交叉剪辑而成的，所以在其中还能看到我们熟悉的舞蹈天团JABBAWOCKEEZ的身影。

https://v.qq.com/txp/iframe/player.html?vid=l03428yll9m&width=500&height=375&auto=0MJ善于乔装打扮已经是他的一大个人标志，2002年在接受《黄金杂志》的采访时他还提到“我的确经常乔装，但人们太了解我了，所以很难很难，变肥装、龅牙装、各种眼镜、易容装等等我都尝试过。”
其实"BEHIND THE MASK"这首歌原计划收录在他1982年发行的第六张个人大碟"THRILLER"，中，但因为版权的原因而被“雪藏”，之后收录发行于2010年的他是时候的第一张遗作专辑"MICHAEL"中。

众所周知，"THRILLER"不仅将MICHAEL JACKSON送上了流行音乐的神坛，稳固了他天王的位置，其销量也让人咋舌，至今保持着最高销量的记录。我们耳熟能像的"Beat It", "Billie Jean","Human Nature", "Baby Be Mine", and"WannaBe Startin’ Somethin"，正是出自这张专辑，其影响力甚至于辐射到了十几年后的中国，影响了一批年轻人，其中不乏我们熟悉的众多舞者，譬如杨文昊和胡浩亮在接受HHI记者采访的时候都提到，他们的街舞启发人正是MJ。
是你或许不知道的是，其实这首歌并非MICHAEL JACKSON的原创歌曲，而是翻唱自一个日本电子乐队Yellow Magic Orchestra的作品，而这首歌的作者，也就是YellowMagic Orchestra的主要成员之一正是著名的日本配乐大师、演员坂本龙一。坂本龙一曾在1988年凭借他为《末代皇帝》所做的配乐而获得了奥斯卡最佳原创电影配乐奖[注1]，去年大热的奥斯卡提名作品"CALL ME BY YOUR NAME"的配乐也出自他之手。那么MICHAEL JACKSON的版本和原唱有什么不同呢？不如我们来听听看原唱。
除了MICHAEL JACKSON外，"BEHIND THEMASK"还受到不少知名歌手的青睐，比如ERIC CLAPTON就曾经改编并作为单曲发行过这首歌，最高曾攀升到英国单曲排行版第15名的位置。
看完这版音乐录影带，来跟我们聊聊关于MICHAEL JACKSON的话题吧，你是否是他的粉丝？你在MV中发现了哪些彩蛋？你最喜欢他的哪首歌？你又尝试为他的哪首歌做过编舞呢？
"BEHIND THE MASK" 歌词
All along I had to talk about it
But like a two edged sword,
He touched you and it stabs
All along I knew you were
A phony girl
You sit behind the mask
And you control your world
You sit around and I watch your face
I try to find the truth but that's your hiding place
You say you love me but its hard to see
Cause when he's in your arms,
Your throwing rocks at me
Who do you love?
Is it me?
Well, I don't know
Who do you love?
That I want
If you had
If you knew me
There is nothing in your eyes
(But that's the way you cry)
But that's the way you cry, girl (cry, girl)
(All is grand, all is bright)
All is grand, all is bright
(You're just steady in my mind)
I walk around I'm sufferin'
In my doom
When I come to you,
You're sittin' in your room
You sit around in the strangest place
So take off the mask
So I can see your face
Who do you love?
Is it me?
Well, I don't know
Who do you love?
That I want ya
If you had
I know you
Heaven must be weary
(Your smile is scary)
You got me scared, girl
(Insincere, empty tears)
You got me scared, girl
Heaven must be weary
(Your smile is scary)
You know ooh, babe
(Insincere, empty tears)
Na na na
(Where's your soul? Where did it go?)
I walk around, I'm suffering in my doom
When I come to you, you're sitting in your room
You sit around in the strangest place
So take off the mask, so I can see your face
Who do you love?
Is it me?
Well, I don't know
Who do you love?
Gotta want ya
If he had
I know you
Who do you love?
Is it me?
Well,
I don't know
Who do you love?
God I want ya
If he can
I don't know
I don't wanna talk about it (let's talk about it)
I don't wanna talk about it (let's talk about it)
I don't wanna talk about it (let's talk about it)
