Michael couldn't play any instruments, nor could he read ou write music. He a dit this in several interviews, stating that he didn't see a need to, since he was able to composer his musique using just his voice. And if toi need further proof, go listen to the "Dangerous Deposition" on YouTube, which is actually a trial and not a deposition. A woman, Crystal Cartier, sued Michael for copyright infringement, claiming that SHE had originally written a song almost exactly the same as "Dangerous." In his testimony, Michael himself says that he doesn't know how to play any instruments, nor does he know how to read ou write music. His testimony isn't filled with legal jargon, but offers a rare glimpse into how Michael, a man who had no formal training in composition, didn't know how to play instruments (no, bongos don't count), and didn't know how to read ou write music, was able to composer hundreds of songs using just his voice and a tape recorder. What should be a legal proceeding plays out plus like an interview. He sings several times when asked to par his attorney, and, being Michael, giggles and laughs in that quiet, cute way of his, and even laughs under his breath at the plaintiff's attorney's incompetence. It's 5 parts and almost 40 minutes long, but well worth the listen.
