⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I just watched this and grew up in the 80’s, but I gotta tell ya, there was something dark about this. They were using wordly like otherworldly, possesed, powerful spiritual energy, started writing itself, etc. Not to mention the egos and the fake hollywood comrade. I mean, a big snake randomly shows up where Lionel Richie and Michael Jackson are writing the song. Plus the line “God turns stone to bread”, that was never in the bible. Satan tried to tempted Jesus into turning stone to bread. I think the darkness of hollywood and the music industry is a lot deeper than we ever thought.
I was in elementary school when this came out. I remember this song vividly and was blown away at how many singers were on here. Still am today with so many egos. I did not know the backstory so it was cool to hear how it was all put together. It definitely brought tears to my eyes. Lionel Ritchie nailed the ending of this with his comments.
