it said on the web site that Who Is It was gonna be on the set list...i'm mad..real mad...Joe Jackson...
yeah that's what i'm wonderingHey mkgenie this is interesting info.. thanks..
Question for ya... What do you mean by "almost live" and "almost not live" for Human Nature and Smooth Criminal? I dont understand..
Also I find it weird that not ALL of the J5 medley and WBSS are live....
Any thoughts mkgenie?
I'd personally prefer stuff we've never heard before.
Thank you so much mkgenie for your info. Really appreciate it. I just have one simple question. It seems to me from the trailer and the pictures that Michael never actually performed these songs in full costume. In most of the footage, if not all..he's wearing a combination of weird outfits..(like red pants and gold jackets..) Does he ever actually perform any of the songs in the movie with full costume? Like does he wear the red beat it jacket during beat it? And does he wear the billie jean 'costume' during the song? Thanks.
They are not real stage costume, just his daily costume.
He didn't even wear billie jean 'costume'
what a pity.
Why partially live?
Most of the songs in the movie are montages from various performaces of different rehearsal dates.
They just edited them together to become a complete song performance.
Now you understand?
Excuse me but..who in the hell said Michael was not a dancer?! Have you never seen a Michael Jackson concert/performance?! he is an AMAZING dancer. Not only his choreographed stuff, he is fantastic when he just FEELS the music and lets go! When the music goes into his brain and you see it expressed through his body. His movement, his lines, his grace, his energy, his control yet his fluidity, and his AMAZING footwork is what we strive to get anywhere as good as! He is MASSIVE in the dance community. Ask any professional dancer who their inspiration was/is and they will say Michael Jackson! I GUARANTEE nobody will mention Elvis or Prince! Haven't you heard dancers and artists talking about Michael's dancing. They are in awe of him. I should know..I am around dancers. I can't believe someone would say MJ was not a dancer just because he had some ballads!! - That is laughable.
vent over.
MJ is a dancer??? Really?? Where is he dancing on songs like-You are not alone, Heal the World, Earth Song, Man in the Mirror?? LOL Beyonce is dancing like crazy and still singing live. Prince not a dancer?? He was dancing during his Lovesexy Tour more than MJ during Bad. During Bad MJ wasn´t dancing very much. Have you seen Jackie Wilson??
I don´t like the strict choreography Mike. I hate strict choreography. I love the freestyle Destiny, Triumph Victory Mike.
I don´t like strict choreography like he did on They don´t care about us. I dig freestyle dancing like Jackie Wilson James Brown did. I hate backgrounddancers-it is more for boygroups.
mkgenie: how do you know this?
Great, thans for all the info mkgenie!
-I have some more questions:
The songs that weren't live (or partially live).. did they use the original album vocals (like they did with the HIStory Tour) and then Michael playbacked to them??
-What about the documentary itself? You said it wasn't great, but... does it have any great MJ images of him talking, laughing, playing around?
I'm so excited about this.. it sounds great. But wait.. no Who Is It after all??
