i have so much to say... i have been studying my teacher for a number of years now, in ways michael studied his teachers... just... the nuances still amaze me to this day... nuances that only belong to him. like when he speaks about the 'close-up'...
wow... to be in the presence of your teacher... that has GOT to be a life-changing experience... i could only imagine the conversations they could be having on the plane they're on now...
this is a wonderful tribute... james brown was a teacher to michael; he loved his teacher immensely, and mr. brown loved michael like a son. and i consider michael to be my own life's teacher. thank you for your lovely film.
@TheStarceyn100 it was his perception that made him do it..and then his dad told him bad things about his looks so I think that will hurt anyone ...and then MJ is so shy all his life..
@DrOmega yes... prince's main influence (according to him) is ike turner, but also mr. brown, sly stone and others. michael's influences were everyone from mr. brown to mavis staples to jackie wilson to fred astaire to diana ross... james brown was inspired by louis jordan...
Reaaly apreciate this and i'm stuck with trying to remember the name of the tune that ki cks in when you introduce your self.....What tune is that man ? Groove and once again really appreciate your effort on this one ...God Bless:O)
@MiJJack1 it's on disc 1 of the 'ultimate collection' boxed set... the credits say it was recorded in 1982, but i am wondering if this is a typo, as it's located in the section of 'pre-thriller' tracks. it also sounds as if it's an outtake from the 'triumph' sessions. this is a great song to dance to; it's one of michael's many dance-able moral tales...
WOW, from 0:52 to 0:59, classic James dancing to the beat on the GOOD FOOT! Amazing this guy was still able to dance at his age! R.I.P James Brown and Michael Jackson!
wow i bet u if u was 2 tell m.j hez betta den james brown m.j would smack da shyt outta u lmaoo..he learned from dat man and u cant compare them its a different time james brown was out way b4 m.j
i wouldn't say mj is better than james brown i would say hes half way up there but both are really good entertainers but james brown is more experiance than mike.
@strawberryiesable james is great but Mj was better James said it him self Mj could dance to so many different styles but man do i love james but no one compares to the king of pop
@paulusmagirl no he was drawing sketches of Elvis Presley face instead! XD true mike was goodlookin as he was meant to be but you guys all know what materialism did to the poor man! Atleast James Brown didn't change for no man! :)
MJ lucky he got to meet the people who inspired him! MJ & James Brown were probably pretty close. MJ studied James. I will never get to meet Aaliyah or Michael Jackson & those are people who inspired me.
the song playing at 1:20 is an awesome outtake from the Thriller or Off the Wall sessions called "Sunset Driver". It is AWESOME, you will love it...just type it in on youtube..SUNSET DRIVER. It should be released now.
The song is "Sunset Driver" a demo from the Off The Wall period. The track eventually was issued on Disc 1 of the Ultimate Collection in '04. Good song.
