After the King of Pop’s sudden death in June of 2009, documentary footage of his rehearsals for his upcoming This Is It Tour was pieced together to create the documentary of the same name. Spike Lee has now revealed his music video for the song “This Is It.” Originally played during the credits of the documentary, Lee decided to compile a mini-documentary, using archival footage from Jackson’s life.
Michael Jackson – This Is It – Directed by Spike Lee from 40 Acres and a Mule Filmworks on Vimeo.
The song was written by Jackson and Paul Anka.
The documentary This Is It will be released via DVD on January 26th.
