All THIS IS IT Tracklist/Setlist discussion in here [Merged]

Re: Tracking list for THIS IS IT

That setlist that I posted, was taken by an insider who claims those were SOME of the songs rehearsed. Karen Faye said SPEECHLESS was rehearsed at some point, I don't know.

Will you be there was indeed part of the show, because all the numbers of the MEMORIAL (except Gone too soon and Smile) were songs that he and the band rehearsed. Kenny said it himself.

But again, this is only a POSSIBLE SET LIST, we would only get to know what songs were rehearsed when the movie is out.
 
Re: Question about the Set List for TII

DD was planned, according to Ed Alonzo (magician).

"For a splashy version of Dirty Diana, Jackson wanted a flaming bed with a pole-dancing aerialist “playing the part of the fire,” Alonzo said. For the elaborately plotted stunt, Jackson intended to be pursued around the bed by the “fire woman,” and each time she touched the stage, flames in the form of fluttering crimson fabric would shoot skyward. After she caught him, she would lash him to the bed’s tall posts with gold rope and a sheet of red fabric would billow before him, illuminating his struggling silhouette. When the sheet fell, the magic trick would be triggered - the woman would be revealed as the one ensnared, and Jackson would materialise on a stage in the centre of the arena."

If this is true then :eek:mg:

Re: Which songs live

TWYMMF was also live, if not 100% then most the song was live.
 
Re: Which songs live

Guys...Just remember that Michael would rehearse an entire set live (such as the Dangerous Tour Reheasals) but that doesn't mean come showtime, they'll all be live. During the Dangerous Tour, Jam, Smooth Criminal, Thriller, WYBT, Black Or White, Man In The Mirror, Heal The World etc were playback, However from the footage that is available from the DWT Rehearsals, they were live.

So there is a good chance that a large chunk of the TII Rehearsals will be live but that is no indication that the actual concerts would have been without playback.
 
Re: Which songs live

i understand that but i think that 6 -8 songs sung live in a live show is too dfemanding especially if theyre ballads or slower paced songs :)
 
Re: Which songs live

hope he sings/hope he does... umm, guys... come on, reformulate your sentences...
 
Re: Tracking list for THIS IS IT

michael lee bush has a photo with the provisional set list for This is it :)
 
Re: Question about the Set List for TII

Michael Bush posted a set list (looks like first page only) on his facebook. It is in a picture, upside down along with a file folder that lists other songs not on the list. Michael Bush says this is NOT the final one.

9527_1124985245038_1239341459_30384878_2445559_n.jpg


It shows:

1. Starting Something
2. Jam
3. Drill
4. TDRCAU
5. Human Nature
6. Smooth Criminal
7. TWYMMF
8. J5 Medley (I want you back, Stop the love you save, Ill be there, don't stop/shake your body)
9. Rock with You
10. I Just Can't Stop Loving You
11. Dangerous
12. Black & White
13. Dirty Diana
14. Beat It

It looks like a second page is under there or on the reverse.

The file folder next to the list shows EARTH SONG, NOT ALONE, THRILLER, BILLIE JEAN, BE THERE (Will you Be There?).

Re: Question about the Set List for TII

DIRTY DIANA @_@ I could die now.
 
Re: Question about the Set List for TII

Man in the mirror?? plus does that mean there were going to be YANA girls!?
 
Re: Question about the Set List for TII

Although it was mimed, I loved the new arrangement they did for TDCAU on the rehearsal footage. It was cool to hear a more modern interpretation of the song. I hope they did this with the other songs too.

How cool would it be for MJ to perform a more rocked-up version of Smooth Criminal ala Alien Ant Farm? After all, MJ did like the cover version. It'd sorta be like MJ covering Alien Ant Farm covering MJ.
 
Re: Question about the Set List for TII

Thanks for that pic! Amazing setlist...

Drill? New song??:bugeyed
 
Re: Question about the Set List for TII

Oh yes of course... drill in that way.
Never mind:)
 
Re: Question about the Set List for TII

well, whatever the setlist is i hope they play it all in the movie. I don't think i can wait for the DVD release of the full rehearsal.
 
Re: Question about the Set List for TII

Well, so far so good, this setlist is not much different from the one posted a few pages ago.

We have ROCK WITH YOU and the addition of DON'T STOP/SHAKE YOUR BODY on the Jacksons Medley.

What DRILL could be?...mmmm...I guess I'm going to go with some kind of MILITARY march.
 
Re: Question about the Set List for TII

cool drill. And Rock with you and dirty diana!! But where is the invincible songs?
 
Re: Which songs live

every song live apart from triller due to exhausting dance routine
 
Re: Which songs live

I think all songs would be lipsynched with his mic turned on for adlibs and the oportunity to sing live with the backing track if he felt up to it.
 
Re: Which songs live

I definitely hope he does Man In The Mirror, he did say he'll be performing the songs we all want to hear so, I imagine it will just be the most popular ones.
 
Re: Tracking list for THIS IS IT

Speechless seems like the "lighter" song - everybody takes out a little cigarette lighter and waves it to the beat...

Why did he have to go? Every day I ask myself this, and every day I just seem to feel worse.
