In those moments, I thought I couldn't stay at more songs, because my heart was broken in pieces, in a hundred pieces; and then came Stevie, his voice cracking with emotion as he called out his friend's name during the song, and I cried, I cried like I never did before. I miss him so much, and I do know that in your heart he's still alive, with or without a God.
such a brilliant song! awww man im deviststed michael jackson is no longer with us!! he was the best entertainer of all time and a true saint. KING OF EVERYTHING if you ask me lol. but did stevie just say that michael jackson did a cover of this song???? i would literally melt in my chair if i heard MJ sing this. someone let me know please. nice one. thanks for being the best MJ.
MJ was a beautiful person..illuminati tried to destroy his image and are the ones responsible for his death..RIP Micheal Jackson for all the memorable childhood memories
my sister had an album of stevies and this track was on it. i first listened to it when i was about nine..forty years ago!!.never forgot it...beautiful..stevie a gift from god and i was very moved when he sang this for michael..shows that someone as great as stevie always believed in michael...michael jackson..the greatest of them all xxx
watching it again a year later and it seems like no time has passed. tears still fall, not as bitter perhaps, but i don't think the sadness over michael's passing will ever leave me. you're just another part of me now, michael. love you forever.
my heart still cray, cry so hard too hear this song, o ,i think people for evry year will anderstund, the meaning ,how we lost, the greates man som whas at the eart, he blow his soul too us all. all fore L.O.V.E .love you michael.j. hug
Every time this song takes my breath away. What a great but also sad moment. Stevie is the best singer. I still can't believe Michael passed away almost one year ago. It feels like yesterday. Time really flies.
Wow, Stevie's amazing voice has remained untarnished with age. Something that usually affects older legends, and some younger ones, like Mariah Carey.
Beside that Stevie Wonder is a music genious, his voice is full of energy and feelings, that brings tears in one´s eyes. His voice is "trembling" here from sadness, but he´s trying to avoid it !!
I cant watch it without crying...and Stevie re-affirms all over again why his voice should be considered a "natural resource". This song always reminds me of friends that are no longer here...and although I never knew Michael Jackson, he was embedded in my DNA like the resrt of us. He was a "friend in my head". Stevie's voice makes the hair on your arm, stand up.
Very spellbinding performance from Mr. Stevie Wonder. I was especially feeling "They Won't Go When I Go", read the lyrics. Michael Jackson is speaking from beyond the grave, I tell you and he's using Stevie as his voice. Haunting and also touching. Very wise choice of song from Mr. Wonder. I love both of these guys. RIP Michael Jackson. Wish you were still with us.
OMG.all these media stations and shows-THEYRE the ones who made michael addiceted to drugs, the ones that made fun of him, and theyre showing this memorial live?let the innocent channels air it-oh wait, THERE ARE NONE!!!
OMG I can't stop crying watchig this. Michael was so beautiful inside and out, and I am so sad that he's gone. Everybody keep saying that I should be happy that he has his new found peace. Don't get me wrong, I am happy for him, but I'm saddened because I feel that he left this earth feeling that he wasn't loved or appreciated.He didn't deserve it, it just makes me sad.
I thought that this was hands down the most powerful performance at the Jackson memorial tribute and oh so fitting. Its as though the song were written specifically for Jackson though we all know it wasn't and was created many years ago. Usher's performance of Gone Too Soon was a close second in emotional power.
Full of emotion and real meaning. In his voice you can feel his pain. A true artist showing true respect to another. Made me proud. Thank you Stevie. Peace.
by far the best performance (other than Jermaine) So touching and emotional - it made me cry on the day - what a lovely man - love u stevie -- R.I.P Michael , i love you so much xxx
Stevie, Thank you for singing this amazing song for Michael. It was a very touching moment. I agreed with what you said also. You are an amazing talent. Michael, I loved you and your music so much. We will never forget all you did to heal this world and make it a better place. Rest In Peace! We will love you forever!
How unique a song to let all the greedy........ corrupt ...bloodsucking parasites who helped contribute to MJ death know......this song was right on point.......Awesomely done Stevie!......"they will never go where u've gone".........................To all the haters ......it 's people like yall that make this world a horrible place....I will Pray for yall..."No more lying friends".."wanting tragic ends"..........they won't go when I go........taking more than they give......money is the root
My friend at school just lost her husband. The words are so fitting to her. Rupert Thorneloe left behind two very little girls who will never know their daddy. To all the children who have lost a father this is a beautiful song.
GOD DID LOVE YOU MORE WE ARE ALL AT PEACE, GOD FACE US GLORIOUS ,ANGEL I PASED U OVER THEN MARREIED YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU LOVE U FOREVER MICHAEL
