I think the AI special definately helped re-raise the profile of Michael's music. This coupled with the news coming in from across the pond would have pushed him top of mind again for a lot of people.

I managed to catch the show and to be honest for the most part was impressed, especially with the song choices as it actually showed MJ's diverse appeal and catalogue.

The songs performed from memory were:

The Way You Make Me Feel,
Keep The Faith,
Rockin Robin
I'll be There,
Dirty Diana
You are Not Alone,
Black or White,
Beat It,
P.Y.T.
Remember the Time,
Give In To Me,
Human Nature,
Never Can Say Goodbye.

Good to see they went a little more obscure, even in the hits stakes.

I was reading some fans' reviews and they all had the same reaction: Good to see Michael get a tribute, but they can't sing Michael's songs lol

Despite the fact that Jeffiner is obviously factually wrong, and there are pictures and testimonials to prove it?


Just like to reiterate that 'Jeffiner' wasn't factually wrong about anything because she didn't say it! The quote was 'doctored' by Markk. Thank you! I'm sure you'd all feel the same in my position, none of us like to be accused of something we haven't done, right? biggrin



Just can't believe they're doctorin' your posts Jenn!!!! Fight for your rights!!!!!

He should just ask Janet to be his support act.It's not as if she has anything better to do boxed Her own tour didn't do very well.Plus,she could come out during his set for an explosive performance of "Scream".


As much as I love Janet - I wouldn't want to see her in the support position. A guest appearance - sure - but as the support act no. She is an artist in her own right, clearly established and I think it would be a bad move - unless it was a Jacksons Family tour, which it isn't.

Swa


We're talking about the UK now, and Janet is not exactly "established" there, considering her last 2 albums didn't go higher than #63 on the charts. Being an opening act for MJ could turn out positive for her.

I will ALWAYS fight for my rights eireboy, you know me! Well, I'm sure Markk didn't mean anything by it initially, just the way he did it, it's just got a bit confused. But I'm not happy with all those nasty posts directed at ME, for something I didn't even say!!

Anyay, it was Whitnail who said it... wink He's always getting me into trouble!! lol

"Whitnail! Get back on here and explain yourself...!" lol

Annika, she messed the quote up herself if you go back and take a look at it. Marrk did not doctor a post, I don't get why she keeps saying that. If you go back and read it, it looks like she wrote everything and added 'Hi Whitnail' on the end. Marrk did nothing wrong


lol Whatever Arnotts. You accusing me of writing Whitnail's post now too?!

Markk DID take one line from that quote, edited out most of MY comments, and Whitnails, but left in my wink right? I'm not saying Markk did anything wrong, but the whole quote was still changed around and it made it look like I'd said it, whether it was accidental or not.

All I'm saying is that I did not make that comment / statement and want to put the record straight.

You really have got an issue with me haven't you? And I don't know who you are, but I don't think I've ever come across anyone quite as downright rude as you on here before, in all my time here. Are you like this in everyday life? Do you have a sense of humour at ALL? eek

Oh, and in my opinion, all quotes are 'doctored' if someone takes a line or uses certain phrases from them and cuts out the rest, not including the whole post, that's what highlighting should be used for... am I right? I think I'm right! I think you'll all agree . biggrin

Hey no, I know you didnt write whitnails post. You just deleted a quotation thingy which makes it seem like you did.I've said three times what it is that actually happened. If you go back and read your own post you will see you quoted whitnail wrong which is how Marrks post seems the way it does.I've responded three times to it becasue you havent seemed to have read any of them and kept saying Marrk doctored it.I don't have any issue with you. You see responding to several posts on the one thread as having an issue? Well I don't sorry. I have issues with your posts on this thread, but not with you.

Whatever. But the crux of the matter is that you responded to this 'statement' that I didn't actually make (however that came about), calling me 'pathetic' is that correct? And that you ALL knew that I was 'pathetic', correct? You've now had the audacity to call me 'lame', 'pathetic', said that I've 'messed up' and I've had comments from other people such as I'm 'talking shit' bla bla bla... and I've got to tell you I'm not having it! I wouldn't be treated like that in every day life, and I'm not being treated like it on here. I think I deserve an apology.

Hey Markk!

It's no problem, I know it was an accident... it's not your fault. And maybe I didn't put my quotation mark in the right place initially or whatever!! What I'm really angry about are some of the responses towards me, as I say above.

It's sweet of you to come on and say though! biggrin

I don't take back the messed up part. Because you did. And I would of taken back the lame and pathetic part, but after the last couple of posts I'm starting to think maybe they're true.

I'm definitley now officially over this whole thing.I will now not respond to any of your posts if it makes you happy. All I want to talk about is the topic at hand. And I agree with an earlier poster who said we should start a new thread and stick soley to the info.

God, what does it take? If you hadn't responded so rudely to my very first post, which was totally unnecessary, and then again in subsequent posts we would all have been very happy. But you're at it again aren't you, you are STILL being rude and abusive - I don't believe it's allowed. But as you seem to be getting away with it.... I think we all know that YOU are the really pathetic one Arnotts. And I'm sure everyone on this thread is very relieved that you're now 'officially' 'over' it, even though you can't seem to bring yourself to apologise. And, in future, I think you should take your own advice and stick to the topic at hand, instead of insulting other people on the thread.

Your damn right about that ...the US media could not stop looking over at what was happing in the UK ....no one in the US music biz is doing what mike's doing in the UK ....

The betting odds are heavy on Janet being the support act ...she be mad not to do it.... lol
Da, Da, Da....Emancipation....Free..don't think I ain't..! London 21 Nights...Clap your hands...you know the rest..
