this always gives me goosebumps, and to think when michael said he wanted quincy jones the executives in the boardrom said no Quincy is too Jazz, We almost never had Thriller!
@joejibblets How dare u insult such a great man! go on wikipedia- that bastard Chandler admitted he was lying AFTER MJ died! it's all wrong. there was no evidence or anything! go learn the truth before u judge someone
No one to date.....has ever done with music...with that movement....you know who you are! Any place..you can imitate anyone..but you can NEVER IMITATE MICHAEL JACKSON!!
ever....you know....the fans know what I mean when I say this.....there has never been and never will be another MICHAEL JACKSON!!!!
@HiroshiYamamoto123 Even "old guys" appreciate amazing talent. It happens now and then. Sinatra. Ella Fitzgerald. The Beatles. Stevie Wonder. Elton John. Michael Jackson. David Grohl. And Michael Jackson was amazing. He had his flaws, but we all do.
@bob2pac2 ok well from my understanding i think this was 82 so he was out of it or at least tried to the following yr in 83 (i wrked hard to get tht to sound smart)
What an awesome performance! This was the moment that truly marked the new Michael Jackson as a separate entity from The Jackson Five. Even Fred Astaire was impressed.
I saw so many performences of MJ an I alway back to this, it's so special and he looks like milion stars :) I think Billie Jean is the best song ever just next to Bohemian Rapsody by Queen
If this is in fact a live singing performance, he has some of the best pitch control of any singer I've ever seen live, even if some of the other vocals are taped.
@bballgmr I agree! I was 15-years-old and the time and he was smooth. My eldest sister grew up loving him and the Jackson 5. She was screaming her head off when he was performing THAT night. The BILLIE JEAN video was ground-breaking not only for MTV but for Michael and the entire music industry!
To all the young kids out there watching, this is how Michael Jackson conquered the universe. He changed the entire music scene forever with a single performance.
What a shame when he transformed into that strange creature he was when he died. He didnt know if he was Tinkerbell, Diana Ross or Elizabeth Taylor. If only we could regrow his DNA and bring him back, pre-surgery.
this guy danced like he was possessed by people like jackie wilson.. but with the agression of james brown and the street magic of the hood.. mj could def freestye
@lk90jn65 funny thing is, i remember an interview with michael he said as a kid when he used to watch james brown on tv he got pissed cause the camera didnt show his feet when he danced lol
OMG!!! My heart breaks when I remember that this very special person is lost to us forever :(
