Countdown to Oscars: When a young Michael Jackson sang theme song to ‘Ben’ at Academy Awards
Am going to post videos from past Oscars all week as we count down to Sunday’s Academy Awards. Today we kick off with Michael Jackson performing Original Song nominee Ben from the film Ben at the 45th Annual Academy Awards in 1973.
In case you didn’t know, Ben is a rat!
He sounds superb and it would be nine years later that the release of Thriller would change everything – and not for the better it turns out.
Anyway, Michael is introduced by, of all people, Charlton Heston.
