Can you please tell us which songs were not sung live??
We know They Don´t cae was mimed. Which other songs were mimed. Couldn´t be to many as you said it was for the most part live. What about Jam??
If you compare Mike with Bad 88 Mike or Dangerous Tour Mike. How would you rate his performance??
If Bad 88 Mike is a 10 out of 10
And Dangerous Mike a 8 out of 10
How would you rate THIS IS IT MIke after you´ve seen the movie??

I won't tell you which songs were not sung live since this would be spoiler.
I will give Michael 10 out of 10 even though it was just rehearsal, because everything, from dance move to concept, was so fresh and electrifying, like you have never seen him before

Re: *UPDATE* True Setlist of This Is It the Movie (performances mentioned)
OK I understand. But what do you mean with the term "for the most part"??
Does for the "most part" mean more than 60% 70% 80% was live??
You don´t need to tell us which songs were not sung live I agree this would be indeed a spoiler but please tell us how many songs were not sung live without giving away names..
You posted 17 Titels. How many Titels out of the 17 were not sung live??
The information is very important. Because I must decide if I take non-fans to the screening. ANd I know two of them hate lip-syncing. I will not go to the movie with them if MJ is miming a lot of the setlist because I knwo that they would make fun of him.

I saw in the interview with the dancers one of the girls said one day Michael was just jamming by himself to Billie Jean and he took out a compact and powdered his face to the beat. She said it was one of the coolest things she ever saw!

Re: *UPDATE* True Setlist of This Is It the Movie (performances mentioned)
So Bad, Dirty Diana, Dangerous, and Who Is It aren't included in the film even though clips of Michael rehearsing Dirty Diana and Bad were in the trailers...
hopefully the DVD release has them

Re: *UPDATE* True Setlist of This Is It the Movie (performances mentioned)
Here's some loose ideals about the title,that I came up with. I know there is an org. with same name that supports different things as well as it makes complete sense that Michael would do a 'Dome Project' since he was going to do shows at the O2 arena.
I had mentioned in a few posts around here,that you can tell by the trailer that he was working on this.
Info. I found. below..(setlist is outdated but gives insight)
A 3-D mini film titlled "The Dome Project" was suppose to be unveiled during Michael Jackson's "This Is It" tour.
Jackson finished shooting the project only two weeks ago. It included recreations of the Thriller music video in which "the audience would have felt like they were visiting the Thriller experience, like they were there," according to Vince Pace, the man behind the 3D cameras used for the shoot.
SOURCE: BILLBOARD.COM
Two weeks before he died, Michael Jackson
wrapped up work on an elaborate production dubbed the "Dome Project"
that could be the final finished video piece overseen by the King of
Pop, The Associated Press has learned.
Jackson
was apparently preparing to dazzle concert audiences in London with a
high-tech show in which 3D images — some inspired by his "Thriller" era
— would flash behind him as he performed on stage.
"It was a
groundbreaking effort," said Vince Pace, whose company provided cameras
for the shoot, a 3D system he created with filmmaker James Cameron.
"To think that Michael's gone now, that's probably the last documented footage of him to be shot in that manner," Pace said.
Two
people with knowledge of the secretive project confirmed its existence
Monday to the AP on condition they not be identified because they
signed confidentiality agreements.
They said it was a five-week
project filmed at Culver Studios, which 70 years ago was the set for
the classic film "Gone With the Wind." Four sets were constructed for
Jackson's production, including a cemetery recalling his 1983
"Thriller" video.
With 3D technology "the audience would have
felt like they were visiting the 'Thriller' experience, like they were
there," Pace said.
Shooting for the project lasted from June
1-9, with Jackson on the set most days. The project was in
post-production, at the time of Jackson's death, and had been expected
to be completed next month. It was not immediately clear what would be
made of the video footage now.
Producer Robb Wagner, founder of
music-video company Stimulated Inc., did not immediately return a
message seeking comment on the project.
Michael Roth, a
spokesman for Jackson's Los Angeles-based promoter AEG Live, said he
hadn't heard about the production but did not rule that it could be
part of the company's contract with the entertainer.
According
to one of the people with knowledge of the project, a willow-thin,
pallid Jackson left a memorable impression on the crew, arriving in a
caravan of SUVs with hulking security guards in tow. The person said
Jackson introduced himself to workers on the set and walked with a
spring in his step but at one point needed assistance as he descended
steps off a stage.
Besides the cemetery, one set was draped in
black with an oversized portrait of Jackson in his "Thriller" werewolf
costume. Another set was designed to simulate a lush jungle, and a
fourth was built to replicate a construction site, with a screen in the
back to allow projection of different backgrounds.
Taping took
place in marathon sessions ending early in the morning. One scene
filmed on the construction site set included scantily clad male dancers
wearing carpenter's belts.
According to Stimulated's Web site,
the company was hired to produce screen content for Jackson's planned
comeback concerts in London. Stimulated has worked with Def Leppard and
the Pussycat Dolls, and produced content for the Academy Awards and the
Emmys.
Last year, U2 released the concert film "U2 3D," a film
of the band's 2005-06 Vertigo tour, shot at several shows in South
America with 3-D technology.
At the time, guitarist The Edge told The Associated Press the 3-D technology allowed "the songs to shine through."

In addition:
The Dome Project would consist seven works: Smooth Criminal
(Jackson inserted into classic 2D black-and-white film noir chase
sequence); Thriller (3-D movie starting in a haunted house with a
ghostly image of Vincent Price, then moving into a graveyard where the
dead awaken); Earth Song (3D short film featuring little girl who
wanders through rain forest, takes a nap and dreams of the splendor of
nature, and awakens to find the natural world has been devastated);
They Don't Care About Us (a/k/a Drill, 2D film in which a sea of
soldiers march in unison; 10 male dancers replicated hundreds of
times); MJ Air (3-D movie in which a 707 jet pulls into the frame; hole
was to open in screen for Michael Jackson to enter; jet flies away);
The Final Message (3-D movie of little girl from rain forest embracing
the earth); and The Way You Make Me Feel (2D theatrical background
featuring male dancers fashioned as historical construction workers).
The setlist includes among others: Wanne Be Startin' Somethin', Jam,
They Don't Care About Us/Drill medley, Human Nature, Smooth Criminal,
The Way You Make Me Feel, Black or White, Jackson 5 Medley, Off the
Wall, I Just Can't Stop Loving You, Dangerous, Thriller/Threatened
medley, Beat It, We are the World and Earth Song.
Other video sequences for the background Chaos LED screen to be set
onstage behind him would include the following: Flashes and Glimpses
(historical timeline of last century in 90 seconds); Startin' Somethin'
(animation with letters MJ and words This Is It); Jackson 5 Medley
(graphic animation featuring Jackson 5 logo); I Just Can't Stop Loving
You (animation of a baroque hall of mirrors); Dangerous (graphic
animation replicating brainwaves); Dirty Diana (graphic animation
replicating fire); We are the World (graphic animation containing
religious icons); and Heal the World (stock footage of children).
So guys, can you imagine how grand and beautiful that concert was
suppose to be? Imagine a concert with 3D effects with all the new
technology and to add to that are illusions and some magic? I know it's
going to be breathtaking as Mike would have always wanted it. It really
was going to be the most amazing production in history, again breaking
all barriers and creating a concert experience like no other. Mikey was
really a genius! He authored his concert and nobody can pull that
off...no one....ONLY MICHAEL JACKSON!

I´m not hating. I just want to know which songs he was singing live thats all.
I ´ve never heard him sing Smooth Criminal live(even on Bad Tour but on one show he was singing live btw.) It was always a dream for me to see him sing Smooth Criminal live.
