you guys, youtube is notorious for having a delay with video and audio. I don't believe he's lipsyncing at all. I think it's the youtube player that's off sync b/c the upload quality isn't HD or something. I remember watching this live when I was a kid and there wasn't this overlay like in this video.
@NakedDave2010 You're 100% right. He's lip synching the song, but it really doesn't matter. The honest reason is beacause M.J. wasn't a musician, he was an entertainer. An entertainer of the highest order. What I mean by that is this video could have no sound track at all and still get just as many hits, and people will still watch the video all the way 'till the end. There are very few entertainers, ie. James Brown, Sammy Davis Jr., Elvis to name a few, who had that kind of charisma on stage.
Michael always sang with so much passion! It's like the music just flows through his veins......it's very believable. That is why nobody cares that Michael was under 12 years old when he began singing for the Jackson 5. On the other hand, today's music is complete trash.....it's sad.
I was born 20 years too late, I want to be in the 70's generation!
@lilrockerbro Its a mixture. When Michael Jackson first went solo and became a big hit, he asked thousands and thousands of fans what they'd rather see, him dancing or singing the song. The majority said him dancing. Think about it, sure, he can do both, but eventually dancing for minutes at a time would cause him to breath heavier, meaning it would mess up the song. So yes, they would play the track over the speakers but he would also sing along with it when he could.
He was the greatest of my time and will always be to me. Say what you wanna say about his trouble life, none of us are perfect. Their will never be another Michael Jackson. May he rest in peace.
people cried when the beatles performed... I get it. People cried when Michael Jackson performed... I get that one too. But why does Justin Beiber make girls cry. WTF
at 3:40 a move that wowed the audience when i was younger i tried to do the moonwalk i could never do it haha even with a slippery floor or socks haha!
i dont mean to offend the legendary king of pop but i can moonwalk better than that. im pretty sure there r better ppl better than me. i apologize if this offends u. he will be the best. i only learned one dance so he will always be the best
Did people know he was going to do the moonwalk during this performance like he said it on the news expect a new move or anything or was it a complete secret and surprise ???
@tinylittlesoldier It Was A Complete Surprise...The First Time Most Of The World Had Seen It Done. My Mom Told Me How The Next Day Literally EVERYONE Was Talking About It, Trying To Do It At School, In The Street, On Their Hardwood Floors...Everyone Wanted To Know How He Did It. Most People Thought It Was Some Sort Of Magic Trick Or Something.
I have been watching alot of Michael Jacksin vids and i can never find another artist that can ever stand beside Michaek herelly does prove that he is the King of Pop.
Michael Jackson will ALWAYS forever be the King of Pop. No one can beat his dance moves and most of all, his music. I will long the day he left this world--June 25, 2009--forever and ever.
Wnat's to say? Unimaginable talent, superlative, compelling expression. Music, lyrics, movement, and MICHAEL. Few few indeed in humanity's long interval. Attain such unimaginable expressiveness. RPS Jersey City, NJ

Michael Jackson is the stuff of legend, an amazing dancer in his own right and a musical genius. The all round complete package, hats off to the King of Pop, RIP forever remembered, sorely missed.
its depressing that hes gone. Fuck all you haters who talked shit about him until he died then jumped bandwagon. RIP MJ your name will live on until this world ends, no joke
