Love Never Felt So Good, and neither has bringing back the sounds and moves of pop music legend Michael Jackson. Along with the release of the deluxe version of Xscape, the second post-humous compliation album of previously unreleased MJ tracks, has come the music video for “Love Never Felt So Good,” a song written, originally recorded, ad produced by Jackson and Paul Anka in 1983.
The video is jam packed with the smooth original moves of the moonwalking king himself, blended with the modern and uplifting efforts of Justin Timberlake and his back-up dancers to remember and honor famous iconic scenes from hits like “Bilile Jean,” “Thriller,” and other fan favorites.
Timberlake and Jackson have a notable past relationship, as they performed N’Syncs hit “Pop” together at the 2011 MTV Music Video Awards, and it is rumored that much of JT’s album “Justified” originally began as songs for an undisclosed Jackson project, according to Pharrel Williams. It is nice to see this kind of relationship and celebratory respect continue long after Jackson’s untimely death in 2009.
