“All this makes me wanna shout” – Michael Jackson and the power and intent of his roar in performance and song – MJ Studies Today, January 2019

MJ Studies Today XXXVII

Abstract: In this month’s MJ Studies Today column, Kerry Hennigan looks at Michael Jackson’s shout out to his audiences in his performances, short films and songs. She also considers his recording of the 1959 Isley Brothers’ song “Shout” which contains some powerful new lyrics. She queries Jackson’s intentions with his celebrated roar and suggests the song provides a clue as to what these might have been.
