Jackson, whose album 'Thriller' won eight Grammy in 1984, saw his follow-up LP, 'Bad,' win only one this time around, for best-produced non-classical recording. Unlike 4 years prior, despite being nominated for 4 awards, Jackson unfortunately won zero awards that night. He was visibly sad, as he intended Bad to beat all records Thriller set in mind. All in all, the GRAMMYs’ 30th anniversary party in Radio City turned out to be something Bono would approve of a pretty soulful night of music. 0:00 The Way You Make Me Feel 3:20 Man In the Mirror Michael Jackson at the 30th annual Grammy Awards performing The Way You Make Me Feel and Man In The Mirror. On March 2, 1988, the GRAMMY Awards returned for the first time in seven years to New York City for its 30th birthday party. “This is a historic building,” host Billy Crystal explained, talking about Radio City Music Hall. “Because it’s the only building Donald Trump doesn’t own...yet.” No single star owned the night of the 30th Annual GRAMMY Awards show, but in terms of both awards and performances, this proved to be a very good night for many of music’s elite. Take U2: The Irish rock gods won Album Of The Year and Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal for The Joshua Tree. Accepting the latter award, U2 guitarist The Edge offered the most memorable run of thank yous in GRAMMY history, proclaiming, “I’d like to thank Desmond Tutu for his courage, Martin Luther King, Bob Dylan for ‘Tangled Up In Blue,’ Flannery O’Connor, Jimi Hendrix, Walt Disney, John the Baptist, Georgie Best, Gregory Peck, James T. Kirk, Morris Pratt, Dr. Ruth, Fawn Hall, Batman and Robin, Lucky the Dog, Pee Wee Herman, the YMCA, Eddie the Eagle, sumo wrestlers throughout the world, and, of course, Ronald Reagan.” The same night, Jackson performed two of his new songs: "The Way You Make Me Feel" followed by "Man in the Mirror". The first track featured a never heard before, slow, minute and a half long intro, while the latter featured a choir singing alongside Jackson. Album of the Year went to U2 for The Joshua Tree, and Song of the Year went to Barry Mann, Cynthia Weil and James Horner for "Somewhere Out There". ✔ COPYRIGHT © Michael Jackson: Grammy Awards (1988) New York City - Live Restored & MJJ Productions Inc.
