Just for accuracy - Scream / TDCAU / ITC were all individual songs not a medley.


alot of fans see it as a medley. They were somewhat connected

I'm still mad that he would start She Drives Me Wild then cut it off
mad lol


I don't count it as a medley as they were the full songs. He just went from one song into the next.

As for "She Drives Me Wild" yeah I was like Oh Wow when it started then bam it stopped and went into In The Closet.

Looking back on it now - it was a musical sting to allow the other dancers to exit the stage and then move into the next song.

That's weird - the opening I saw the 5 of them stepped up from under the stage into the wall of lights, then if wend down behind them. Here it seems they appear behind it.

what show did you go to?

The whole setup was different from the 87 and 88-89 shows


87 show - Melbourne Australia. Right after the Japan opening gigs. It was pretty much the same show as the one that was televised in Japan and has since been bootlegged onto VHS and DVD.

Cool. I know the one in Sydney, he performed Just Good Friends with Stevie Wonder.

One of the Brisbane shows leaked back 2007, and it's better than the Yokohama concert

50 shows - will he won't he?

There seems to be a lot of neysayers out there who want to think he can't do it.
That MJ is past his prime.
They said he didn't have the fan base to sell out 10 shows.
And now he has sold out 50.

I knew he COULD do it. What else would you expect from a LIVING LEGEND?

For me I have my eyes open on this one.
I am "cautiously optimistic" that MJ will deliver the goods.
I have seen his shows since the Bad tour, and each time was blown away.
Does he still have it?
Will he still have it for show 20, show 40?
There is a lot of speculation, and to be honest no one knows until opening night.

I just hope, and it may be foolish, people give him a fair chance. As we have seen time and time again with many artists, people love to build them up just to cut them back to size.

It may be a no win situation in all honesty. If he does a brilliant job there will still be those who say it isn't enough.

At the end of the day the only person to prove them wrong is Michael. It's make or break time in his career. I trust he can use this to rise to the occasion and deliver a wonderful show.

Blast from the MJ press conference past:




Michael Jackson
Heal the World Press Conference
Romania, 1992

I'm still trying to figure out what it is that makes him look so much different now than from this. You can still see in this clip that under the extremely long hair and truckload of makeup he has a beautiful face. It's not the skin colour or nose because his skin looks flawless and his nose is still miniture but it doesnt look unnatural. Now both his skin and nose looks weird but they dont seem to have changed. I really cant figure it out. Maybe it really is just the hairstyle and the way he gets his make up done, both are now atrocious rather than just a bit excessive like it used to be.


I'd say the ageing process is the most likely reason.

This photo is a few days after the press conference. He actually looks much better on this day, compared to the press conference day.

The best way to judge is to see him in person. Some people are photogenic, some are not, and when you see them, it's like
eek

Whenever I saw Mike, he always looked better in person then in the pictures.

Same here. I saw him in person at the WMAs 2006, and in person he looked vibrant, strong and healthy. I couldn't hardly believe how bad he looked in comparison on the photos I saw the next day. eek

He still doesn't look like Michael Jackson. It doesn't matter whether he looks better in real life, that ain't his natural face at all.

MJ has always been the subject of jokes and ridicue. I have learned to just analyze things for myself. I believed that he was dying last year sad but does a dying man shop up a storm in Beverly Hills? confused All lies and hype. Love him, anyway.

Yeah, let's continue to harp on something that's been the same way for over 20 years now, and that nothing in the world will ever be able to change. That's productive!

His natural face has been gone for 23 years now lol

Honestly when you look at these pictures. You can still see that its the same guy- just the skin, hairstyle, and nose is different.His eyes don't look any different now then they did back then.

To those who have ever been to O2 Arena: Where is Seat location: section BK 416, row J, seats 822-823

http://www.albemarle-lond...tre_No=175

Is it in the blue B section in the middle or is it the yellow section number 415 the furthest from the stage?

I am still happy that I am going, but I wanted to be nearer for a change..... neutral
