Get Crafty Crossword Vol. 7- The Words of a Real Artist - Michael Jackson 1958-2009
June 28, 2009 | By
Today's crossword is a tribute to Michael Jackson because he was an artist in every sense of the word. His influence permeated music, video, television, dance, cartoons, clothing design, hairstyles, and philanthropy. I'm sure I'm missing some. I was one of those teenagers who came from school every day and put my VHS tape of Thriller in the VCR and practiced that dance, and it wasn't easy for me to do that because that video terrified me; it gave me nightmares. But I was so fascinated with the spectacle, I watched it anyway. The crossword clues below are all song lyrics from Jackson's songs; the answers are all names of his songs. Pictured left is Michael Jackson limited edition art print by lakeillustratiion on Etsy. Key to last week's puzzle is below as well.
