Yes, he is/was truly legendary.
 
I remember when "Thriller" was released. It both sounded and looked (video) so different to other music at that time. And there were so many good songs on that album.

I always wondered how there could be so many excellent songs on an album.
Later I found out it was intentional; the idea was to create an album full of hits.
 
"Thriller", gosh, what a cool and excellent song... and the dancing... it is just pop mastery.

 
The piece came-up from the "Lame Jokes" section of the forum. Someobody carried a step from one of the posts and I became curious and tried a brief web search. A web page gives some justification of sorts why we can use goose(s)-geese(p), but not moose(s)-meese(p). Look for the part of the page headed with "Why isn't "meese" the correct plural?" https://languagetool.org/insights/post/plural-of-moose/
