Moscow is the site of the Moscow Kremlin, an ancient fortress that is today the residence of the Russian President and of the executive branch of the Government of Russia.

Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009) was an American recording artist, entertainer, and businessman. Often referred to as the King of Pop, or by his initials MJ, Jackson is recognized as the most successful entertainer of all time by Guinness World Records. His contribution to music, dance, and fashion, along with a much-publicized personal life, made him a global figure in popular culture for over four decades. The seventh child of the Jackson family, he debuted on the professional music scene along with his brothers as a member of The Jackson 5 in 1964, and began his solo career in 1971.
In the early 1980s, Jackson became a dominant figure in popular music. The music videos for his songs, including those of "Beat It", "Billie Jean", and "Thriller", were credited with transforming the medium into an art form and a promotional tool, and the popularity of these videos helped to bring the relatively new television channel MTV to fame. Videos such as "Black or White" and "Scream" made him a staple on MTV in the 1990s. Through stage performances and music videos, Jackson popularized a number of complicated dance techniques, such as the robot and the moonwalk, to which he gave the name. His distinctive musical sound and vocal style influenced numerous hip hop, post-disco, contemporary R&B, pop and rock artists.

The men eat babies and the boys love Elton - in Moscow
The girls are innocent and the mothers stab lovers - in Moscow
The tanks roll in and the people want more
My father was sure that my mother was a whore - in Moscow
Oh oh in Moscow
Lenin was a lover and the dogs eat each other - in Moscow
A meal ticket's a win and a laugh is a sin - in Moscow
The gutters sing and the radios bad
The sun never shines and the people are sad - in Moscow
I put my coat on inside out
So you won't see me while I hide
From all those things that lurks outside,
The pouring rain inside my mind
I wish you'd stay here by my side
Although this pounding pain I've been assigned
For these four years I've spent behind,
This inner beast I have designed
The only thing that turned me blind,
The only one I was denied
And by the time we reached Moscow
My love for this had disinclined,
With all those things that slipped my mind
You oughta know when you've gone blind
I want you here right by my side
To cease this pounding pain I've been assigned
For these six years I've spent behind,
The faces I won't recognize
The only one that turned me blind
