My Top 300 Songs of All Time 174. Quiny Jones feat. Tamia “ You Put a Move on my Heart”

edit isn’t mine, credits to the creator! saw this on tiktok and had to share it cause it’s such a gem. ALSO CAN WE TALK ABOUT QUINCY JONES IN THIS MOVIE?! HOLD ME THE FUCK BACK

I’m reading this Michael Jackson magazine cause I’m trying to cut down on screen time a little bit but I think we as a fandom…which I don’t even know if I should consider myself a part of this fandom considering I listened to thriller and had a lot as a kid and only just now listened to Off The Wall-Invincible but I think we underestimate just how big of a deal the Wiz was to Michael’s career in retrospect Cause I would argue Off the Wall, Thriller and Bad would’ve never happened or at least would’ve been very different without Quincy Jones, and those albums MADE Michael Jackson. When you think of Michael Jackson you probably think of “Beat It” “Smooth Criminal” “Rock With You” “Billie Jean” or “Bad”. Those songs would’ve been different without Quincy Jones. He met Quincy Jones when he was the Wiz’s musical director. Michael Jackson’s solo career would’ve look different imo if he never played The Scarecrow.

**Listen on the Spotiy app to hear custom transitions. Use headphones for an optimum listening experience.* Since seeing the Michael film I’ve been hyperfixating HARD, especially on his music! My introduction to MJ was The Wiz, and I’ve always loved that film’s impeccably produced soundtrack by Quincy Jones. Thus, I decided to try my hand at mixing songs from Michael’s first three Quincy produced albums with tracks from the Wiz, and this is the result! The Spotify Mix feature has become my best friend and I’m excited to make more custom MJ playlists!

through the lens April 14th, 1983, you graduated yesterday Your diploma sits on your table you started sending your portfolio to studios and labels you were planning on continue to do so today the house is quiet….way too quiet……you sit bored until the phone rings once twice you were about to brush it off until you remeber the portolios you sent out the day before you go to to answer it “hello?” there’s a pause “is this y/n” his tone is calm “yes this is y/n who is this?” “this is quincy jones we saw your portfolio” your heart feels like it’s out of your chest silence “we’d like you on the set.”
