According to the YouTube page, the event was held for her 65th B-Day. So, since she was born in 1932, I am guessing this was in 1997. Hope this helps. | |

Welcome to Hollywood
That's what they told you A child star in Hollywood That's what they sold you Grace with beauty, charm and talent You would do what you were told But they robbed you of childhood Took your youth and sold it for gold Elizabeth, I love you You're every star that shines in the world to me Elizabeth can't you see that it's true Elizabeth, I love you You're more than just a star to me Lovely Elizabeth You have surpassed them all My friend Elizabeth Learned to outlast them all Many started back when you did Lost their way and now they're gone But look at you, a true survivor Full of life and carrying on This is your life You seem to have it all You reached your peak They wanted you to fall It's very sad, this world can be so bad But though all the heartaches When they put you down You know you were the victor And you earned the crown It's like walking through the fire Determined to win You were beating life's battles Again and again Elizabeth, I love you You're every star that shines in the world to me Elizabeth can't you see that it's true Remember the time I was alone You stood by my side and said: "Let's be strong" You did all these things That only a true friend can do Elizabeth, I love you The world knows your work now Of all the things on Earth now I pray one day I'll be just like... you. | |

This is a difficult one to tell whether its live or lip synced!
sounds like it was live in parts with ad libs as live, but the performance was at least a live 'recording' fantastic song and stunning performance, think i remember madonna jumping up to applaud him at the time! | |

This song and performance remind me of his tribute to Sammy Davis, Jr. (I think) sometime in the '80s. I believe it is available to watch on YouTube. | |

I love the performance and the song. I wish someone (Mike) wrote something like that for me. "When Michael Jackson is just singing and dancing, you just think this is an astonishing talent. And he has had this astounding talent all his life, but we want him to be floored as well. We really donĀ“t like the idea that he could have it all." | |

it aired on tv in early 1997, a few weeks after it was filmed. I remember taping it and being so excited about it that night, one of his best ever!!! that note he held at the end, WOW!!!! | |

This actually was live "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." | |

yes it's from 1997 You're right, it is '97. I have a tape of Stern goofing on this event, specifically this song and all the cats telling Liz how beautiful she looked. | |

Both MJ and Elizabeth have both spoken of the paralellism of their lives, which is why they said they became such close friends. I tell ya, some of you are sure desperate for Mike not to be able to sing anymore,lol. You need to ask yourself - why? | |

MJ has stage presence like none other. It's hard to explain, but that one simple performance was filled with such feeling and expression. He's just amazing to me. | |
