    I had a teacher that would always say your first idea is your worst idea. I've found quite often the opposite is true.
  • This reminds me of MJ face too. It was perfect the way it was but being a perfectionist he couldn't leave it alone. Always making changes to reach the unattainable perfection in his mind, but often the original and unplanned was the best Mike already. He never felt good enough. That's why I love all of MJ faces because it's all apart of what brought us the best music. He was a perfectionist in every artistic way ❤️👑🐐
  • 91 mixes later decides to go with the 2nd one😂 Mad respect to you Mr. Swedien🔥🤞

  • @MJPamuru20
    Haha MJ records it 91 times and releases the second recording! No wonder it took him 5 years or so to release an album! :P Love to Sweden! Gotta love that guy, such a humble, genuine person!
