Michael Jackson - Remember The Time (Allure Remix)


Je précise que ce remix a été terminé quelque jour avant sa mort, et que le clin d'oeil s'est transformé malgrès moi en hommage... J'en ai été très affecté.


Vous trouverez une photo "hommage" par Gauthier Amano dans mon album photo.

A bientôt


--------------------------------------------------------------



Please listen to my tribute remix of Michael Jackson.
I have completed it a few days before his death...
MJ will stay in my heart and my music forverer.

A tribute photo by Gauthier Amano is online too in my photo album.
Hope you enjoy it.

See you
