After the VH1 premiere of the TII “They Don’t Care About Us” video, the channel began playing a string of music videos afterwards (Which is weird, because what music channel even PLAYS music videos anymore? Certainly not Mtv or Vh1). So….upon entering the chat room last evening, speculation began that these songs had a particular meaning relating to the hoax. With Souza, I believe (reading some of the chat transcript) being the initial one thinking something was up, I began reading the lyrics to some of these songs and found strange connections after picking up what was going on, and I began writing the songs down.
I am not saying that every single line written in each song is relevant, but more like tiny sections of each lyric is a clue, Or even the visual of the video (Like Tom Petty’s “Don’t come around here no more” with the Alice in Wonderland theme/black and white checkered flooring in others) or is very strange in relating to what the media has been saying about Michael Jackson’s “death”….There were other members of the chat room helping and getting what was going on….one theory is that M.J himself picked these particular songs/videos to play to give clues to those who believe in the hoax to “get it”, sending messages. Who knows? But one thing is for certain, at least I believe to be so, is that these songs were very, very weird that gave me chills and I am sure others felt the same way that were in the chat room. Most of the songs, I gathered are about death, drug addicts, missing someone/love/childhood.
And yes, I know that every song on the planet deals with these issues, (sex drugs and rock’n roll, ya’ll) that’s what music is about….but these particular songs have a context that I feel are important and are a setting about the hoax that may have/have been picked for us “clue searchers” to pick up on, and all of the songs are just flat out eerie in what is being divulged.
One thing, is that several Bands/Artists were played twice, including:
U2, Janet Jackson, Aerosmith, Texas, Madonna and Ash.
But George “Michael” was played the most, playing 3 of his videos, which I find to be very strange.
Another quirk, was that The Smashing Pumpkins’ song “1979’ was played twice, and not just a different song by them, but the SAME song (1979).
I think that at the beginning, some videos weren’t written down, or missing. The first that was mentioned by the time this theory was beginning to form was Wyclef Jean. The first Janet Jackson video, I did not catch the title of (But will search for because I know it was in Black and White, from the early/mid-90’s, and I remember what she was wearing…jeans and a black hat…so if anyone thinks they might know it, post a link/mention it?).
There is also one song by a band between the Billy Idol and Def Leopard (or in that general area of the beginning) song that I did not catch. I never heard of the band, or seen them before/had no idea who they were, so unless someone knows or remembers a music video with a guy singing(brown hair), then a girl singing(short black hair), wearing green suits/blue clothing in the video (The guy singer kind of reminded me of Steven Fry a little) then that song is missing from this list.
Here is the list of songs that are in order to the best of my knowledge:
Wyclef Jean – Gone Til November
George Michael – Faith
U2 – Sunday Bloody Sunday

That is where the songs ended, or when the songs weren’t written down anymore. I believe that at some point that videos/songs weren’t relevant anymore, but were still included (in my opinion…as I am not sure when they stopped playing videos).
So. There is it. Take it or leave it. But I think that the artists that were played twice or more, or the same song may have hardcore clues, or the videos with the imagery (such as the checkered floors, as there were quite a few with that design in them) are important.
Thank you.
Special thanks to Souza, for the transcript, and to those of you in the chat helping out and understanding what was going on
