It looks like "Billie Jean" was not ran through during those final 2 rehearsals. It was done at earlier stages of rehearsal.
 
wow.


it says 'songs include'. we've already seen a clip of billie jean so that is there.

mixed feelings about this film, but iv got to see it

Personally, I would've prefered not having another rendition of Thriller, Beat it, Starting Something, Earth song.

I was really hoping for songs that were not performed live before like Unbreakable, Privacy, Ghost, Cry, Speachless, The way you love me, Money or In the back.

But that just me.
 
and we have also heard him perform dirty diana..which is not on THIS list. Lol so i guess it was only for those two days
 
Oh my goodness, he was gonna do Threatened!

Man, life is so unfair!
 
JAM - That's INSANELY AWESOME
DANGEROUS - THANKGOD
OFF THE WALL - I'm in Heaven.. (he hasn't performed this fully live since BAD tour)

:yes:
 
Beautiful songs, the ''old-fashioned'' ones, LOL.
That's exactly what I was waiting for, the classics like Billie Jean, Beat it, Off the wall etc

Bless you, Mike!
 
Well we must remember that AEG only gave Sony about 100hrs worth of footage, so I assume that what Sony had to work with was just the songs listed in the first post... My guess wld be that when the DVD is released it will include more songs
 
That's an awesome set list. I would have been in heaven!
 
I wanna know which one was the openig song. I hope there will be more new songs add to it. We all know the dancesteps of these songs, i would love to see something totally new. But maybe his dance moves are different, we'll see..
 
Just because Billie Jean and Man In The Mirror werent rehearsed the last two times doesnt mean they werent in the set list.
 
Wish he would do in the closet,remember the time, scream, stranger in moscow, and you rock my world. Excited he included threatened!!
 
According to my sources,

Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' is opening track

Man In the Mirror is the closing.

I heard there are a short a cappella versions of "Speechless", a spanish version of "I Just Can't Stop Loving You" and a dance number of "Shake your body". not very sure.

THERE IS BILLIE JEAN PERFORMANCE !

No off the wall, no dangerous, no dirty diana, no rock with you.

You'll see.

I get that this wasn't the full show run-through and that more songs would be added/rehearsed performances replaced, etc. But it really seems like Vince has been largely ignored - which is a shame. I just hope the addition of Threatened amounts to more than just the 30second instrumental fans recorded through the rehearsal centre walls.

Don't get me wrong, watching this setlist at the O2 (as it now will at the cinema/on DVD) would have left me in awe, but it just seems a little similar to Dangerous and HIStory setlists.
