It's weird seeing all these people dancing like he did. With all the music videos of his on here, it just doesn't seem like he's really dead. Every time I see a tribute to him, I feel like jumping inside the computer and yelling "He isn't dead, stop with the joke. It's not funny, it's sick!!". But of course, I'm wrong. He's gone. And I'm crying. I never got to meet him in life. Maybe I'll be blessed enough to meet him in heaven when i die, if it's at all possible. Goodye, Michael. I miss you...
I Love This Video.. They Did So Gud I Wasnt Worryn About The Singin..RIP MICHAEL.. Whoever The 89 Who Didnt Like This Yall Just Sum Haters I Bet Yall Couldnt Do This..
it really sucks tht no one realized how important michael was to us n pop culture til after he was gone...i especially hate all the 2 faced ppl out there sayin theyre NOW fans after he died...ive been a fan since i was 6 ive never turned my back on him but now ppl r realizing tht he was a really good person but they dont realize it til after he died which sux i wish he could of seen how much the world really loved him b4 he died..
Awesome dancing! This is a great tribute. I only consider it a close second to Janet & Stevie's. The singing isn't bad at all. The highlight of course was 3:47. Makes me miss MJ. R.I.P. Mike.
whoever it is singing, HE'S NOT SINGING THE RIGHT WORDS during Thriller! i'm not impressed with the singer at ALL! i am not a fan of Dancing With The Stars anyways
yea I noticed the same thing. He also messed up some of the words in I Want You Back . I didn't really like the singing either but I thought that the dancing was amazing.
i am sure michael jacksons brothers loved him but they where allways jealous of mj and all that crying on tv saying oh well we love and miss michael ya u love and do miss him but they r so jealous
No, no 'ittsmack' it's not over by a longshot so don't be sad:(. I have a 23y/o son who was raised on MJ as well as a 15 y/o daughter who just thinks he's the 'finest' thing she ever saw. It all started when long ago I showed her the 'Thriller' video. She was mesmerized! My son still does the moonwalk & listens to his music. My daughter just went to see 'This Is It' with me. A daughter raised on J Timberlake,Usher,& C Brown loves MJ BEST! As long as we continue to pass it on, MJ lives...FOREVER!
A unique and different tribute to Michael Jackson. I like it. The dancers and singers did a good job on creating their own version of a special tribute to The King of Pop.
I HATE the singing! If they want to honor Michael Jackson then they should let MJ sing on the music!! :( The dude sucks at it and they kind of remixed thriller and the other songs I am a BIG FAN of MJ! :)
this is a total insult. Not one black person. Don't you people know that michael jackson was a black man. This is a freakin insult to me. I'm tired of seeing white people usurp everything we do.
I'm sick and tired of seeing everyone complain about the singing ALL THE TIME! I know that it's not the best but people should realize that it's a LIVE BAND they are NOT MJ!!!! They sing the songs that they're told to sing. It's called a COVER. I'd like to see all of the complainers do a better job than the PROFESSIONALS that are hired to sing up there.
Ok look....this is a tribute and i know i cant do any better, but this thing was not that good. I mean the moonwalk and thriller dance was pretty good! But hardly any of the moves were inspired by Michael. It was too sense, too PERFECT. Michael was a perfectionist but he took risks. when i watch this show i see the same thing over and over again. It pays great tribute but.....its soo.... tense. Oh and the singing was just awful! I couldn't stand it. Dancing, i'd give it a 4 out of 10
That's the way it works here for some reason. I don't exactly agree with it either. When he was a live he was on the cover of every magazine with every bad thing anyone could say about a person, plus some. Now that he's dead, he is the greatest thing to ever happen to dance and music. He is way over-rated now and people are just being ridiculous. Like this chick that posted a comment after yours dramatizing her crying because she never met him, wtf is up with that. Haha, I hate this country.
You hit the nail on the head with that comment. I was disgusted but not surprised by the reactions of the people who were dogging him over the years as well. They should have appreciated him when he was here. I've always been an MJ fan. Never turned my back on him. I have all of his albums. When he died, my brother who was never a fan, miraculously became one. He even asked if he could download those albums. What a difference a death makes. Read into the sarcasm.
Screw Macy's! I hope all corporate empires and oligarchs on Wall Street cripple!! America needs a reset button so more people can compete fairly...level the playing field a bit!!
this made me watch the real thing thanks to the disappointment, thumbs down if you want, but this was crappy but not as bad as that mtv music awards "tribute" though
I think its funny that people act like this was all about Derek. It was an MJ tribute and all the pro's had input and participated in the dance. Derek was great but so was everyone else.
It is so sad to see how much he is still loved and him not being here to know it! :-( The Legend that is Michael Jackson will never end. A great comfort to see his mom Katherine in the audience taking this all in.
What a moving tribute. They did MJ justice! MJ would have been proud, honored & humbled! Thanks DWTS!!!!!!!! RIP Michael Jackson 1958-Forever and ever!
helllllll naw they should not have done that or did it but with someone who at least sounded like MJ like fa real
