  • DANG! I wish he were still here with us!

  • This is when he broke his foot?

  • He injured his ankle. That is why he was sitting down.

  • Sadly this is video proof that also verifies that this was when he started taking pain medication and eventually became addicted to them, along with sleep medication.

  • He had broke his foot

    Rip king of music!

  • Mike twisted his ankle really bad doing a spin. He still rocked it!

  • I would like to be there then

  • He jumped up out that chair like OOOOOH and sat down like ooooooh sh*t i forgot @ my dam ankle! ...Love You Mike! LOL...best laugh i had all day! 

  • Aww i remember this show! I felt so bad because you can tell that he wanted to just get up and dance so bad! You can see it's taking everything inside of him to stay in that chair!!! But amazing how he was in the chair the whole time and this is still a better live performance than any now of days from anybody!!! He was such a great artist!!! And so humble regardless!!! Gotta love that...R.I.P. MJ

R.I.P. MICHAEL...

  • he was obviously injured from a previous rehearsal or something

  • figures the 1 time he performed it live on tv he was hurt and couldn't dance.

    Remember The Time = 1 of his best videos as far as dancing goes

  • I HATE it when people say that MJ never lip synched even when they have full evidence right in front of them. He was a fucking human being for God's sake, not a super hero. There's nothing shameful about lip synching when you're under such a pressure and that you have to sing AND dance every fucking night during a tour. Yes, Michael DID lip synch from time to time, this didn't prevent him from being an amazing artist and an awesome performer.

  • He didn't lip sync through the history tour. It does look like he's lip syncing here because he's forced to sit down, SOMTHING MJ isn't used to. He even dances when he's recording the songs onto his album. he needs the full use of his diaphragm and can't get that sitting down, I suppose. But during concerts, he doesn't lip sync even when he had a throat and lung infection. He will forever be the consummate performer.

  • if hes sitting down why was he still lip syncing the song? thats one thing i wish he hadnt done, he mimes during almost the whole history world tour concerts.... why ??? coz this guy could really sing!

  • so wait if he didnt dance why didnt he sing live?

  • Growing up this man was GOD to me!!!! He maybe gone, but I can honestly say he will NEVER BE forgotten. He is THE BEST!!!!

  • Did his name REALLY have to be up on the screen...? Like they were introducing us to someone we didn't know? He needs no introduction, I don't know anyone who doesn't know who he is :)

    We all know he wanted to get up and dance around though :|

    R.I.P MJ

  • dear and sweet michael ...all is unique only with your presence

  • dear michael .....

  • I knew Michael this was when I first met him and I was backstage and when he got off he told me he was dying to get up and dance. I said I could tell.

  • its bout time he relaxed lol who cares bout the lipsync we know he can sing

  • @laffy

    He never Lipsynced I hate it when people say that. I love you .Michael!!

  • @xenaslave69 He did, couldnt be more obvious, why does it matter its not like hes mariah carey, he could perform live

  • i loved how they jhus kept sayinq go michael .i kno he wanted to jhus get up

  • Michael Jackson ,The King Of Pop,Amazing!! All I could think of is, I've done alot of chair dancing, Now I've seen "The Man",doing his version of chair dancing!! Doesn't matter whether He's doing his amazing moves on his two legs, or in this case,in a chair, he STILL IS THE MAN!! R I P Michael!

    We Miss You

    Respectfully.

    BabyBlackRose

    @-{---

  • Wow Mike still looks just as amazing sitting down!!

  • He was jammin in dat chair!!! XPPi bet he wanted to dance so bahd :l But he was still ballin =D

  • he killing it while he in the chair! lol, i wonder y he's lip syncing???

  • EVERYBODY CHAIR DANCE!

  • Michael cuda done that performance sittin on a toilet and he still wuda been the highlight of the night!

    Oh God he's beautiful

  • damn he still pwns justin bvers dancing.He's just that good,cause he's the KING!(of pop,God is THEE KING)

  • I remember watching him that day. MJJ was nursing an injured leg. The reason was not stated but I think it is now apparently clear why. He looked like he wanted to jump out of that chair.  He never let us down. The show must go on. K

  • amazing..... is there nothing MJ couldn't do?

  • He wants to get up and dance so bad i could see it in his eyes...<3 it

    R.I.P. MJ

  • i thought it was so cute at the end he stands up. aww he fucking cute .

  • i love it I love you Michael

  • What's the point if he is lip singing here. So what!! The whole world knows that Michael is one of the best singers and dancers in whole world. So what's the problem! Get over it...Michael is and was special! Plz stop criticizing him! Let the man finally rest in peace!!!

  • only Michael Jackson could get a standing ovation for sitting in a chair for an entire performance lol

  • @prettyyoungthing89 You forgot to add even while lip-syncing! So incredible!

  • he can dance better in a chair than anyone else can standing up cuz he just that good and the crowd loved every second of it and he was still killing it in that chair im so glad he didnt just sit there he actually did some moving he even got up a few times but sat back down when he realized his condition but he still had it. i love you mikey always and forever :)

  • lolz he itchen to get outta that seat nd strt dancing hehe ily mike !!

  • He claimed that he hurt himself during rehearsals, but I read in the book "Michael Jackson, the Magic, the Madness, the Whole Story" that he didn't really hurt himself at all and when he got home, he threw his crutches aside and said "It's a miracle! I can walk!" --It was a publicity gimmick..and look how it worked for him...I bet we all felt sorry for "poor Michael" because he was hurt. He's a genious when it comes to public relations, thats what helped make him a star! RIP, MJ--Luv4-eva!

  • @Preciouslr whatever

  • Only Michael Jackson could sit in a chair, lip-sync, mess up, and still put on a jaw-dropping live performance.

  • he had got something wrong with his right leg..... i think, but as usually he always wnated to enjoy with his fans, he loved so much his fans. Also he did not feel good he had always performed for his fans.

    much MJJ love to all!!

  • love that part where people go 'GO MICHAEL! GO MICHAEL! GO MICHAEL!' if i was there, i would do the same... Oh no wait, not only gonna do that but also scream.. wahaha! wow michael... even the beatles and elvis can't do this.. sit down and still spread magic to the people watching...

    love you michael...

  • Comment removed

  • work it, Michael!!! :P I love this video, but I'm sad because he can't dance...

  • Now what artist would do this today? This is why Michael is so beloved, even with a twisted ankle he still came out and performed. Now that's the mark of a true artist.

  • @utterbullspit yup. thats the reason he died too. pleasing the demanding fans who wanted him to do those shows despite of his health problems.. because they say, they have already paid for the ticket.

  • @xxpinay17xx Don't ever reply to another comment I post again, Thank You!

  • @utterbullspit I agree with you! No body has done that and that shows that no matter what the situation, he's a true entertainer! I love how he didn't let his ankle stopped him cause he's in the chair jammin! Most artist will just sit there! You could tell that the music was jammin and that he wasnt gonna let the chair slow him down! He's awesome!

  • lol he really did want to get up nd dance. poor thing. bt he still movin lol. he's unstoppable :D

  • Aw I feel for him he wanted to get up and dance so badly. You could tell.

  • I have never seen this before..and I've never seen someone sit through a whole performance and still look so damn sexy! The way he moves his upper body is sexy.

  • Bigger thing is that he still is there most would just say i am not comming forget it. And he is showing up! A true fan lover!

  • His Majesty the Pharao.

  • love him....

  • THIS WILL ALWAYS BE THE JAM!!!!

  • He must of felt so much better about his performance when the audience started chanting "Go Michael-Go Michael!" I'm sure he felt bad about not being able to dance for everyone. I still loved it. :)

  • i kant imagine how hard it must have beenfor him to stay seated as much as he LOVED dancing hes an amazing performer even while sitting I love you MJ

  • He is amazing ... adorable!!! :)

  • :) I love him...!!! :)

  • i can seehe wanted to get up and dance soooooooo bad poor thing if i could i woud have given him my feet so he could dance. I ♥ MJ !!

  • hahaha. Poor him, he just couldn't sit still !!

  • uh, ok

  • I know he wanted to get up and dance so bad!!! Poor baby

  • mj wobbles but he don't fall down! haha sorry baby your hurt I still loved it! :) see you in heaven

  • Sprained his ankle during re-hearsals the day before for this show. So in less than 24 hours he re-did the dance routines so that he was able to participate from the chair, now, how many performers do you know who could do that? Most others would cancel.

  • i think we all know that MJ had died earlier than 25 Jube 2009

  • If any other artist would have said that they needed to sit down, the people would have told them to stay home. Nope,not Michael ya'll. ha ha He could have said he was performing while eating dinner.

  • it was an awesome performance ,even without him getting up! I love this man 4ever

  • MJ YOU are so amazing and I LOVE THE WAY HE Laughs- so beautiful.

    He so wanted to get up and dance

  • He can't stay still!! And STILL, in the chair, chillin...he's damn amazing.....wow.....

  • it was soul train 1993 i believe.

  • HAHA i love your little annotations in the middle going "work it!!!" hahah

    and damnn, this man stirs up a crowd even while SITTING DOWN. no one can ever or will ever be like him; he sets the bar a little too high. gah i miss him =(

  • Michael is like so amazing! <3 :)

  • Man, most dancers/singers don't do shit when they get hurt. they'll be like "Oh my, i twisted my ankle, I cant dance". But MJ's like: "Pfft, Its a bad ankle. That wont stop me from dancing. Its not my ENTIRE body thats hurt. Fuck it, Ima go dance"

    :D

  • i can dance exactly like michael jackson i cant wait to put a vid up! and show u guys!

  • i feel so bad for him, he wanted to dance so badly but he had to stay sitting the hole show and even when he got up he had to sit down right away.you could tell the fans were just waiting for him to get up and start dancing,especially when when he stood up. but they loved him anyway.Gosh,you could tell his ankle on his left foot was hurting at the end.poor michael<3 but still,his voice was PERFECT!!!!

  • I LOVE U MJJ

  • dam no matter what he does he is good at it what a great performer, no one will ever be as good as he

  • damn michael can f**kin dance

  • Yeah okm he doesn't know how to dance. Are you on acid? Because you are really stupid. That is the dumbest thing i think I ever heard. what are you breathing?? fumes??? just plain and simple dumb

  • @kira1443...

    prolly drinkin' the hatorade....

  • awesome, but what do you expect from the king. nothing less!

  • lol I have never seen this!! kind of reminds me of my act LOL

  • did you see how he stood up at the end lol he still did good even doe he wanted 2 dance n couldnt love him always

  • FUCKING HOOOOOOT!

  • I"m sure MJ/his handlers had their reasons for him lip synching. He messes up a couple of times doing it (hands cover mouth) so maybe it was a last minute decision to go on despite the foot injury and he didn't have time to sing it live because of that.

  • This is the Soul Train Music Awards, and for what ever reason they have always had the artist lip sync on their show. Even on their weekly series they did that.

  • @manipool i dont think h elipsynced..dont look like it..u sure?

  • Why he sat down? For his leg or something?

  • twisted ankle.

  • @MichaelJacksonsTube idk but he sure does belong on that throne

  • @MichaelJacksonsTube yeah he injured his leg

  • michael i just gotta say great performance and ily...

  • Wow ... passionate performance in spite of everything. Perfect!!

  • 5:00 GO MICHAEL, GO MICHAEL!!! :D

    Anyone else would look stupid doing that :P lol

  • Comment removed

  • the whole time hes just like

    "shxt...i dont need to dance.

    i got dancers to do that for me."

    lol. i luv him. soo much swagg. :]

  • its awesome no matter what happends!... he'll be the best!... and i know that he would get up and dance but he couldn't!

  • whoo! MJ rox! he sat for da whole thing,and ppl still went crazy! he's just da BEST! u can really tell he wanted to get up and dance! oh,my poor baby!

    any other artist,if they were hurt,they would just cancel their performance,but Michael didn't! one of the things dat makes him the greatest artist ever!

  • Aw, you can just see he wants to get up there and dance so badly! Michael, ur the best!

  • this is crazy! only michael jackson could sit for the whole performance and still have the audience mesmerized. True example of an amazing artist.

  • For those who don't know, this is when he twisted his ankle or something in rehearsal that's why he's sitting down.

  • This is the ultimate example of chair dancing! :)

  • hehehehheh yes!

  • ha ha no other entertainer would have gotten away with this. This proves that Mike was the best of all time. Poor Baby, he is trying to still dance. I remember he did hurt his ankle I think. I miss this cat.

  • Michael you can sit with me, anytime... GOD! Michael is like the most awesome person ever, his music is timeless!

  • He cant sit with out work when he hear music he start dancing anyway)))

  • dang...he made that work! lol. luv MJ.

  • i Do not like the beginning when the lady is talking, because she said probably the greatest entertainer in the WORLD, is she crazy or something????

    HE IS THE BEST, THE ONLY ONE, THE UNIQUE ENTERTAINER IN THE WHOLE WORLD!!!!!

    GOD BLESS YOU MICHAEL, LOVE YA!!!

  • @mjestrella1

    the lady is patti labelle in the beginning... dont knock her... these are my two favorite singers.

  • I'm not saying it in a bad way !!!

  • @mjestrella1 How can you never have heard of Patti LaBelle??

  • because i am not from the U.S and i wasn't related to the u.s music or stars. now am learning about them!!!!

  • Ah OK. :-) She's amazing. I hope you are able to see a lot of Patti LaBelle's videos on here. Check out the video she did for Sesame Street where she sings the alphabet. It's really cute! =)

  • thank you for the info. i'll check it!!

    :D

  • that was amaziiing. eventhough he was sitting and dancing i think it was HOT and when  he got up the first time at 3:24 it was amazing. i LOVE it because he was SMILING and i could see that he wanted to dance but he couldn't, but it was PERFECT LOVED IT !!!!

    GOD BLESS YOU MICHAEL!!!!

  • Soooo dedicated. Any other artist would cancel....I love Michael Jackson!!!!!!!R.I.P. Michael.

  • i agree with you. HE IS ( i say is because for me he's not dead, for me his body is not here but his spirit and love is here) INCREDIBLE. LOVE HIM!!!

    GOD BLESS You

  • at the end when he gets up you see him go down holding his leg so yea and on google i say a picture of him and he had this bad cut and it was big so that could be it

  • He was dying to get up and dance!!! lolol...I love him for that!!! I would've done the same thing! That song is hot!!!

  • MJ sprain his ankle while rehearsing and speaking as a dancer who has done the same thing....once you sprain your ankle & the doc says stay off of it..even if you can move..YOU HAVE TO STAY OFF IT for the days the Doc says! It sucks when you really want to dance!!! But MJ is forever the man!!! Sitting down standing up...who gives...MJ is the greatest talent in the world PAST PRESENT & FUTURE!!..just my opinion!

  • totally agree. whatever he does is amazing. AND HE LOOKS GREAT IN ALL ANGLES.

  • EXACTLY!!!!!!! he wanted to dance so bad i felt it!..LMAO!! but he still had a great time and he's still the KING of Pop!! :-)

  • FUK dat!!! Mike is the shit!!! Who the hell sits in a chair and PERFORMS!! MJ FOR EVER BABY!!!!! love u MIKE!!!

  • um dont hate me for this ok as you know hes siting and well he doesnt have any microphone on him or in his hand and there cant be hidden microphones because of everyones screaming

  • Dude, he got up around like 3:00 minutes before the final chorus. And also, he was dancing, in his chair. While sitting in his chair, his feet were moving around in every direction. Watch this performance again and watch his feet. I noticed that his left foot was the one that was suppose to be sprained, or twisted. But yet he moves it without any sign of pain on his face.

  • He sprained his RIGHT ankle (the one without a shoe)...doesn't mean he can't move it and whether he was hurting or not, he doesn't have to show it...the music is in him...no way he could hold himself from moving...maybe it was a light injury and didn't want to risk making it worse...and if you notice you'll see that when he gets up his weight is on his left foot..and while dancing he doesn't move his right foot the way he does with his left...

  • doubt it

  • doudt what? that his right foot was the one that hurt and not the left as you said? The fact that he hopped and frowned a little at the end cause he did hurt? or are you just bitter for him being a predictable dancer?While all the others are full of imagination?( i saw your video "I hate MJ")Please!!! Since you are no longer an MJ fan why would you see his videos and comment? You're right fans like you are also to blame for his death.you made him feel he should always be explaining himself.
