How Michael Jackson Made A Song
Despite dying just before his 51st birthday, Michael Jackson had a long career in music. After headlining The Jackson Five as a child, he became an even bigger superstar ten years later -without ever having left the stage. The transformation was due to a confluence of music trends, Quincy Jones' work, and Jackson's depth of talent. Nerdwriter1 illustrates that transformation by taking a deep dive into the song that signaled what was to come: "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough." It was the first single in which Jackson had creative control. (via Digg)

Very interesting and entertaining. However, not being a music aficionado, it's way over my head. It kind of reminds me of how I feel these days when I read my doctoral dissertation from 25 years ago. In 1993, I was full of scientific zest and a desire to prove I knew what I was talking about. And 25 years ago, I met those goals. These days however, when I read my dissertation, I don't understand half of what I wrote. It's not that my research means less, it's just that my critical eye for what I wrote has diminished, as has my appreciation for what I wrote. These days, I find my personal experiences are much more influential in terms of helping people, than are my past strictly academic pursuits. And if anybody reads this and understands it, it would be nice to hear from you. Kevin J. Roby, Ph.D., LasVegasSportPsychology.com.
