1989, Sammy Davis jr . 60TH Anniversary ,
songwriter:Michael Jackson ,
Michael expressed his utmost respect and gratitude to his great predecessor who paved the way for him, and he sang ,
when the Sammy heard that song ,
he cried ,
and my cheeks got wet as i watched that touching song and Sammy staring at Michael's singing,
and , Stevie was encouraged by this song 🎵I've gotta be me ’he sang ,
Sammy Davis jr , he could sing , tap dance , talk , skit , and do it all , and he was top-notch at it all ,
there is no singer who is better suited to the word ‘entertainer’ then him ,
〜🌿 at that time , racism in american was probably beyond my imagination,
at first, he wasn't even allowed to stand on stage , and when he was finally able to perform on stage , he was not even allowed to stay at the hotel where he was performing ,
he continued to fight against various forms of discrimination against him and achieved glory ,
this is no ordinary matter,
☘️ my memory〜 , he appeared in a commercial for japanese whiskey maker and was very well received ,
and i like this soulful song 🎵time to ride🎤
he is a Great entertainer🎩

サミー デイビス ジュニアの60周年記念パーティでの、マイケル ジャクソンが歌った、you were there に涙が溢れました。
日本では、サントリーウィスキー、ホワイトのCMでお馴染みの、世界のエンターテイナー、サミー デイビス ジュニアです。
彼の活躍した時代は、ショービジネスの世界でも、人種差別がはげしく、自身が出演したホテルでの、宿泊さえも許してもらえなかったそうです。
彼は、逆境を乗り越えて、一流のエンタテイナーの地位を手に入れました。
彼が切り開いた道により、その後の黒人ア−ティスト達が、活躍できる様になった事は、言うまでもありません。
マイケルは歌いました、僕達がステージで活躍できる様になったのは、そこに、
あなたが居てくれたから。
