So…was Michael Jackson REALLY in the episode where Homer goes to the mental institution? I haven’t seen it in forever, so I wouldn’t know, but it doesn’t sound like him on the “Songs in the Key of Springfield” CD…
Ah. I see searching for “John Jay Smith” on IMDB, then clicking on “Actors”, “Composers”, “Directors”, and “Writers” all bring you directly to Michael Jackson’s IMDB file.
Man, do I feel stupid today. And I thought I was such a Simpsons fan!
However, Jackson did NOT sing. That was an impersonator named Kipp Lennon. For some legal reason, Jackson could speak, but not sing.

“In light of these events, would you say it’s time for our viewers to crack open the skulls of their neighbors and feast on the goo inside?”
“Yes, Kent. Yes I would.”
Aaaaaaaaah. Thank you so much. I was wondering who “Kipp Lennon” was who was listed on the back of the CD. Things have really wrapped up nicely (ooh, much quicker than usual).
