His influence on music / dance / video graphics in Tamil (why, all Indian) movies has been remarkable during late 80's and early 90's.

The first number that comes to my mind is the Vani Jayaram song 'sorgaththin vAsal ingE' which was a thazhuval of 'billie jean'. Initially adopted by Bappi Lahiri for a Hindi song and borrowed by Shankar Ganesh later for this Thamizh number.

Hubbers should be able to recall 100's of such MJ influences in TF at this time when people around the world are saddened by his death (though his falling into controversies for the last many years was even sadder).
