so,ai probably did give it that extra push. 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. Swa "I'm not human I'm a dove, I'm ur conscience.

Swa said: SoulAlive said: He should just ask Janet to be his support act.It's not as if she has anything better to do 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... He's always getting me into trouble!! "Whitnail! Get back on here and explain yourself...!" | |

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 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? 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 . | |

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. | |

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. | |

so,ai probably did give it that extra push. 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.... Da, Da, Da....Emancipation....Free..don't think I ain't..!
