i just thought thought of something it would be so cute if he let his kids sing with him at the concerts. not alot, but like maybe every night for the first 9 nights each kid could take turns going out singing a song, and they could each have 3 days and on the last day they could all come out together and sing a song

George michael deserves more appreciation, but the reason people tend to forget the man is due to his limited impact comparing to other cats in the 80's like MJ and prince.

I dig george michael music and im a big fan, listening to the song "one more try", what a great song music


George Michael, Bruce Springsteen, Billy Idol, Tina Turner, Whitney Houston, Lionel Richie and Phil Collins all had big runs in the 1980s too.



I know,And cyndi lapuer lol ,what i have said could be applied to the artists you have mentioned, sometimes one single artist overshadows other artists during a ceratin decade.

i think it's safe to say mj will tear that stage up, you have to remeber it's personal for him this time cause his kids will bethere, the last time he performed prince and paris were just toddlers and blanket easn;t even born, Their all older now and will understand whats going on , this will be the first time they really get to see him in action so i really doubt he will lip sing or do something else to make a full out of himself in front of them

That´s true. I haven´t thought about that. Mike will have to show his kids what he´s capable of.


I think they allraedy know.

Yep.....

He said the singer would earn close to £50 million for the London shows alone. Should they prove successful, future tours will be arranged to cities such as New York, Paris and Bombay.

And the signs were good for the star yesterday. More than 540,000 fans had registered on his official website in the first 24-hours following the announcement of his comeback, in the hope that they could get tickets when they go on sale next Friday

Who's Bad....

I would like that. But who knows whether or not he'll play these songs. I doubt it...

Anyway, why do so many folks want to see the Jacksons? His broters are boring, even in the 70s people only cared for Mj (and Jermaine probably).
He would perform the J5-Medley with them, how boring.


No ..No...No... the Jackson Family holds the key to MJ success younger MJ fans have no idea how big these guys where and the effect they had on music history...it's like saying Paul and Ringo should not play or Sam and Dave should not play ...its a big deal ...if you ever get the chance to see them live do it....you will then understand ....I think mike will get his brothers over for a few dates ....then you'll see JACKSONS take over the WORLD ..it will be on every news report around the world it's that big a deal... biggrin


are you being ironic???

Today, Ryan Seacrest confirmed on his radio show that next week's American Idol Top 13 special will be Michael Jackson themed (this was also reported by various Idol sources). Each contestant will have to perform a cover of one of Michael Jackson's hits. This is the first time that there has been an entire show dedicated to Michael Jackson music, although contestants have regularly done covers of his famous songs (usually to the dismay of judges, who consider Michael Jackson songs to be some of the most difficult to cover well). Americans are encouraged to tune in next Tuesday night for 13 unique covers of Michael Jackson favorites!

Look at what they said here

http://www.eonline.com/ub..._will.html

As far as the Gloved One—who announced on Thursday that he'll do his last 10 concerts in London in July—making an appearance on the show, Fox reps claim it's a no-go. However, with Jackson, you never really know.

Michael Jackson adds 10 more dates to comeback tour

6/03/2009

Jackomania gripped the world again yesterday, and we can reveal the comeback star is to stage a further 10 London concerts.
The dates, in addition to the 10 already confirmed by the singer this week, will be announced to fans imminently.
The news comes after nearly a million people registered for tickets – enough to fill the 20,000-capacity O2 arena at the former Millennium Dome 50 times over.
And the website to register for pre-sale tickets is reporting 14,000 hits a minute.
A source said: “There is no question Jackson has still got what it takes. The fact that he has been away for so long has only added to the clamour for tickets.”
Meanwhile friend and business manager Dr Tohme Tohme has spoken about the star’s planned comeback.
Tohme, who is staying with ***** at the Lanesborough Hotel, West London, said: “He has come back to put an end to all the bulls**t rumours about his health. I think he has answered his critics.
“He is back to his old self – he’s fine, and couldn’t be in better shape. He was away for all this time because he was dedicating his life to his children and being a single parent. This is the reason he took a break from music.
“It was his idea to make a comeback because he misses his fans and his fans have missed him.”
*****, rumoured to have caught MRSA and have respiratory problems, has always denied that he is in poor health. Last night, he was set to go to the theatre with friend Mark Lester to see Oliver!
Lester, 50, played the title role the 1969 film adaptation of the Lionel Bart musical.
At the launch on Thursday ***** vowed: “The Moonwalk is coming back.” His O2 residency begins on July 8 for 10 nights. The 10 extra shows are expected to run soon afterwards.
Randy Phillips of promoter AEG Live said that the dates are the first step of a three-year tour with plans for concerts in New York, Mumbai and Paris.
It is estimated the London shows and merchandise could net ***** up to £50million, and with a tour to follow this could rise to £280million. Tickets go on sale at 7am on March 13

His PR people are smart they know the US is watching what's going on in the UK .after Prince did 21 Nights ...they know that Brit bands and Girls like AMY rock at the moment ... hip-hop is dying in the US...Chris Brown is Finished for now...and Ne-Yo is just starting out....that leaves alot of room for MJ to comeback and lets face it the music industry want him back because it's dead in the US ...but not that bad in the UK ....

.....The Masterplan may just work..... lol lol lol

MJ mania has officially started.

I'm sure the demand for him will spread like wildfire in the US, Canada, and elsewhere.

The music scene is kind of dead at the moment. Screw the newbies, U2 and Madonna at the moment, I wanna see Michael sing again. biggrin

Michael Jackson does quite well during economic recessions.
