Shamon!”
—‘Bad,’ Michael Jackson (1987)

On the title song of Michael Jackson’s album ‘Bad,’ the Man Who Would Be King of Pop gives the millions of Jackobites worldwide these immortal words: “I’m bad, I’m bad, shamon!” And while it sounds as if MJ is extolling the virtues of some sort of processed meat product, “shamon” is simply his unique way of saying “c’mon!” As an exclamation, it hasn’t exactly taken off, but indie pianoman Ben Folds, for one, has carried the flame, throwing down a “shamon” of his own on his 2001 song ‘Rockin’ the Suburbs.’

or a healer medicine man!
