Omaggio a Michael Jackson

Do You Remember The Time?

Directed by John Singleton, and featuring an all-star cast, "Do You Remember the Time?" is set against an ancient Egyptian backdrop. The King of Pop serenades an Egyptian Queen (Somali former model Iman) in front of a pharoah (Eddie Murphy) and a bare chested announcer (Magic Johnson).

At the end, he disappears from the chasing guards and turns into dust.

Perhaps inspired by the ancient Egyptian quest for immortality, Jackson admitted he wanted that song -- and the entire “Dangerous” album -- to live forever.

“I wanted to do an album that was like Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite,” he said in a 1992 interview. “So that in a thousand years from now, people would still be listening to it. Something that would live forever.”
