Over the Christmas holiday, director Spike Lee premiered the official video for Michael Jackson's posthumous single "This Is It," a clip that pays tribute to the life and career of the King of Pop. The moving video mixes images culled from the late singer's life with footage shot in Jackson's hometown of Gary, Indiana and fan tributes following his June 25 death.

 


 

Jackson's "This Is It" soundtrack topped the Billboard 200 chart when it debuted on November 4, 2009. The DVD for the record-breaking concert film is set to be released on January 26, 2010.
