  • btl4life, did David say anything about mj before starting this tribute? I heard the bit at the end about mj probably laughing etc but am curious if he introduced that he was singing this song as a tribute.....

  • the night before in denver he said he received emails and requests to do the song but he didnt want to because he wanted to do it right and he didnt remember all of the words. so when in aspen the next night it was again requested, he said he'd try it but for us not to boo if he didnt get all of the words. thats where my vid starts and me yelling we'll help u sing it.

  • Thanks for posting this..

    However, imho, it's really unfortunate that all those people weren't quiet and respectful in the beginning and throughout this beautiful performance in memory of Michael Jackson..

  • i completly agree. it pissed me off really. there was a couple drunk girls behind us who were lifting our arms trying to make us wave them and kept bopping us in the head as they jumped and frailed around all night!

  • That was, by far, the SEXIEST Billy Jean ever. God, his FACE is so beautiful.

  • I can't wait for some random Chris "I-need-Timbaland-to-sell-my-a­lbums" Cornell fan to come here and say that he did it first. David's singing is better word for word, note for note. He's got a much better voice

  • LOVE IT!!! ...and on my b day thanks dave!!!!

  • I absolutely love this version of the great "Billie Jean." By slowing the song down and making it an almost haunting ballad, the true beauty of the lyrics is revealed. In doing this, Cook (and Chris Cornell) made such a stellar tribute to a legend by showing the true beauty of the historical song. <3 you David. But, most importantly, may you rest in peace Michael Jackson, you were truly an influence in the musical world that will never been seen. You will be missed.

  • DAVID THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE TO MICHAEL JACKSON ~ YOU ARE A CLASS ACT ~ NyCArole

  • rest in peace Michael. Nice tribute David . You look so gorgeous !

  • This is such a beautiful and moving tribute I am so glad you captured it. He really captures the mood of the song in a way that none other has.
