Michael Jackson Christmas

Two questions:

1. Would you have wanted an adult Michael Jackson Christmas album? I would have love to have gotten one

2. Did he ever sing any of the J5 Christmas songs in concert as an adult?

Don't know the answer to number 2, although I suspect it is "no". Regarding number one, yes I would have killed for that if it were released after Thriller and before HIStory. A shame he didn't release a Christmas album. His JW affiliation may have had something to do with it. On it's own, no doubt it would have been a big seller.

Agree about the Jehovah's Witness affiliation maybe being a factor. Didn't he get flack from that very same organization about Thriller [[the song)?

I don't know if they had an issue with the song itself, but the music video was a problem, which is why he had the disclaimer added to the beginning of the "Thriller" video.
