i was just thinking this to myself watching this, that’s how you know he was truly great! he was rehearsing but it feels like he was performing for the world one last time 🙏🏾
Michael Jackson was diagnosed with butterfly disease in 1986. Maybe mj started to see the effects of her butterfly disease and was ashamed of being sick in public and left us with a secret.
@@sunnyMK69 he’s mouthing the words to a backing track. He’s not actually singing during a lot of performances. There’s some that he does, but it’s very easy to tell a lot of his performances are just the studio version of the song pumped into an arena
Not even hollywood music industry was able to replace this man. Not taylor, justin timberlake, 1D, backsteet boys, charlie, etc. None of them got close to what he was
Koushik Krishna Thiruvaipati Beyoncé is quite close. The best living and active entertainer. And before anyone tries to defeat my argument bc I know people hate that woman, who else is the better living and active performer?
Jorge Vegah I miss him to its incredible how even in 2019 he is still missed like he just died yesterday that’s how much of an impact he had on this world we love u MJ
he might just still be alive; audience needs to cool for a while; that is way high level staged deaths are exits for some high level people; so they can have a normal life with family
I still miss this guy. Billions of people went online simultaneously when news of his passing spread through out the world. The only person on planet Earth who crashed the internet. R.I.P. Michael Jackson.
He was mu+rder+ed listen to lyrics "ki_ke me...je+w me" in the original - ask yourself why those lyrics were banned and what did he know about his small+hatted overlords
To me I think it’s because no matter where I am, I still always hear his music playing, you can’t go a Halloween without hearing thriller lol which still gives a Sense of him still being here
I think a lot people will always look back to his work because he was always a source of optimism and hope. So he'll always be in recent memory. Can you say that Man In The Mirror isn't relevant today?
Man, that grin he gave before it ended just gives me chills. RIP King, you were a transcendent talent and human being, and the world is a much darker place without you.
M. Jackson was a sa* anist puppet. Same as Rock &roll that gets its name from its idea - to rock and roll living stones (us) away from Christ's temple. Why do you think the most iconic rock band was called Rolling Stones. Same as in rock, pop king Jackson taught us to worship idols. Men. His famous moonwalk - backwards is how demons walk. He molested kids.
Eu, também não me importo com o que as pessoas, invejosas, maldosas, é tudo inveja, despeito, porque sabiam do seu talento, se voltasse ia ser o r melhor artista do planeta, como sempre foi, genial .Mas infelizmente, ele, não voltou nais, faleceu, nunca esqueceremos, esse homem, o melhor artist, de todos os tempos, nosso querido Maichel Jackson.

@DerMarokkanischeAlman everyone could dance even if they're 70, but never even close to what Michael did there i once show this specific dance move to my friend and ask him if he can do the same as Michael did there and he just say no
I was 12 when Thriller was released. I would stare at his inner sleeve drawings. Kids, get the vinyl LP. I was 13 when Thriller's MTV videos were released. I was awake at 2am for the Thriller zombie premiere on TV. I danced like him. Truly. I tried. Used baby powder to throw on the floor at school to glide the moonwalk. I could flip the fedora onto my head after a 360 by 14. I waited 3 agonising years for Bad. At 18 and 22 I was 6 feet from him at the Bad and Dangerous concerts. I grew up when he was at his peak. He was part of me and millions like me. And June 2009 pushed us all away. To every kid who saluted the 1983 Michael with me, peace.
+tR Gaming I was beyond tears. I honestly thought it was all lies. I can't say I'm nearly as much of a fan as the rest of the people posting, but he was truly the kind of pop, and without him we wouldn't have a lot of the artists we have now. I can't say I know what he went thru his last years of his life, but I can say that it is sad he felt the need to deal with it the way he did. :(
When Michael passed away I was haunted by the news of his death for months and months... I was in primary school and convinced that the world was a terrible place. I still can't believe it, breaks my heart to this day. Michael is love. They say every person dies twice in their life. First is when they pass away, and the second time is when someone, somewhere in the world says their name for the last time. This man will live forever.❤
from what we know, he was coming off of some of the many medications he was taking. he was becoming a healthier guy, but unfortunately had it ripped from him by a unqualified, money hungry weirdo.
@@lucascampbell8482 I don't think that's really true. According to reports he was in such bad condition that they were seriously doubting if he would be able to do the tour at all. He suffered from really bad insomnia (which is assumed to be caused by his scalp burn, which never healed properly) and he was on several medications to try to sleep, and he was badly addicted to demerol. Reportedly he usually had trouble in rehearsals and would usually cut them short. But sometimes, like in this video, he was really sharp and energetic, and it's hypothesized that in those occasions he was high on demerol.
before he died he was no longer able to sing, he was being attacked by the press and people were accusing him of bleaching his skin. yet he still was determined to do this tour. mj is a true role model and will be remembered forever. He said that he was most exited about his kids seeing him perform for the first time on a big stage but they never did... you will forever live on in our hearts. WE LOVE YOU MICHAEL JACKSON!!
I'm trying to be a dick or disrespectful but he was a druggy, and died from an overdose so I doubt you could say role model, I see in some ways but mostly not, again trying to be 0% disrespectful
***** 1st off I don't believe he was a drug user or addicted to any substance other than his music.Secondly after seeing this I find it very hard to believe his health was not an issue. I hate to say it.but I believe he choose to leave his public life and hopefully live the remainder of his life in privacy.
henry Darkchylde I agree with Henry. It's okay to like someone but closing your eyes to their discrepencies is just silly. He wasn't accused of being on drugs with no evidence form people who wanted his money. He admitted being addicted to pain medication himself, many years before his death. There is a complete and comprehensive paper trail of the drugs he was prescribed and an army of people with evidence to show it. For the record i don't believe he was a child molester for a moment but to hold him up as some sort of perfect saint is just . . . . well - retarded. He had a strange and hard life. He used drugs to escape it at times. That doesn't make him bad or wrong in any way, it makes him human.
henry Darkchylde Yeah I hate people who comment but don't really have anything to say. I'd be interested to see what you thought of my comment though bud.
And Michael Jackson is not just a legend because of pop music he created but because of everything about him, he was the person who was so respectful towards everyone and respected all cultures make me love him even more, we miss you so much ㅠㅠ
His performance is slow because because he isn't actually performing. He's rehearsing. Jermaine's book "You Are Not Alone" clarifies that MJ usually rehearsed at a half-pace to just sort of learn the moves and the pace at which it's supposed to go. And then he'd go all out while on stage in front on an actual audience. His deliberately slower moves here aren't out of the ordinary. He rehearsed like this even in his prime.
That's exactly what I thought!! I was thinking to myself "he seems to have so little energy now, but we all know he would be fire at the actual performance!!"
The truth is he wasn’t in good shape. He was sickly skinny, and was taking 40-50 pills a day, which would instantly kill the normal human. He was a heavy heavy drug addict, and was taking lethal drugs like morphine and propofol. People who worked with him said he hardly used to eat, and would hardly turn up to for these rehearsals. He may look like he’s in good shape, but the inside was destroyed.
"Fade out" and it fades with Michael smiling. Because the stage is his happiness. And him performing is my happiness. And as long as I remember his beautiful smile, flawless dancing and angelic voice, I will never forget him. He is basically a part of me. Even though it devastates me to tears every time I think of it, it also comforts me because I know he will be laughing and smiling with everyone he loved that has passed too. And he is finally at peace :) I know he wouldn't want me to cry, so I'm going to wipe away my tears and 'smile though my heart is breaking'. I love you to the moon and back Mike. ✌️
J Davies I will never understand why fans worship celebrities so passionately. The man didn't even know you existed and you want to cry for him. I understand feeling a bit sad at his passing but crying seems a bit too much doesn't it? Especially so many years after his death. And just because he was a good musician and entertainer. You don't even know whether he was a good person or not.
People like Jackson are not just celiebrities, my friend. "Just" a celebrity is Kim Kardashian and Paris. But Michael Jackson touched A LOT of people - globally - with his music. He's on a totally different level. Mind you, I'm just a casual listener. I'm certainly not a hardcore fan. But I know very well how his fans feel, because that's how I feel about other artists. People on the level of Jackson create music with a message, they pour out their feelings into these songs. The fans realize that, they feel that, they appreciate that. There's a very strong connection between a real artist with a real talent and his/her fans. It's something that non-fans simply can't feel and can't understand.
Abraham 302 He was a good person, i think we can all agree on that, after all the great things he did for children. He never would have hurt a child. But other peoples minds were too fucked and dirty to understand that.
I don't think he was healthy. He weighed like only 50 kilos when he died, that's too little for a man his age. EDIT: He weighed around 62 kilos which is alot better than 50, but considering his age, 62 was just on the verge of underweight. I also want to point out that during MJ's last few shows he was taking a drug called Ephedrine, a type of stimulant, which greatly helped with his overall performance. His autopsy, however revealed that his heart was strong and completely healthy (which contradicts the saying that MJ was "a drug addict"). There were no signs of long term drug abuse. Apparently his lungs weren't exactly in great shape but that's expected. As we know, MJ had a history of Demorol usage, but there was no Demorol in his system according to his autopsy, aka he wasn't using it at the time of his death. There were no signs of MJ using or abusing painkillers or other drugs during the periods between 1993-2001 or 2003-2008.
That's why the title of it is "THIS IS IT." I miss Micheal Jackson... Rest In Peace It is good to ready your soul, 'cause we don't know our time when God calls us.. For everyone will going to face the judgement seat of Jesus Christ so you and me must be ready for it. Micheal Jackson he is in hell right now and there's no escape from it, I'm sad for his soul he didn't accept Christ before he died. He is satan worshiper that God Almighty doesn't want.. JESUS IS LORD OVER satan. For everyone that is in hell they will separate from the creator of all.. God ALMIGHTY. And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your soul? -Matthew 16:26
He was happy with his performance on this rehearsal. He probably thought to himself "hell yeah, I'm gonna nail this show! MJ's back in the house, baby!" Yes you were, King. You always have been, people just didn't see it at the time.
I still remember this being played all on tv and what not. I still become sadden whenever his music is played. Losing him and now Whitney is still devastating and I haven't fully come to terms with it.
Mocha Caramel agreed ever since michael died , the world lost its light in the darkness , now hate rules over love , when michael was here , he brought love over hate , we are fucked now
I havent too. Gone too soon! It breaks my heart everytime when i see his tb old videos on youtube and i mostly start crying. I dearly miss him so much but he is alive in our hearts. King of POP forever no mather what.
@IRIE4IPIER yeah, he was overdosed. Which means that he needed drugs in the first place because he was getting sick of all the show he had to do back to back. In fact these were his last planned shows even if he didn't die. He was anything but at peace.
I watched a performance of the king of soul, James Brown, he was almost 70 or 70 at the time, and he was a beast, for one hour he was a beast in that stage. I cannot imagine people saying Michael was sick, and skinny, and blah blah blah. Brown was alcoholic and used drugs as well, heavy drugs, he lived to be 73. He was skinny as well. Mick Jagger is skinny and he uses drugs as water, and he is alive and well. To me, personally, Michael was killed. Maybe not on purpose, but killed.
o you obviously didn't hear that the chidren he 'molested' all came forward after his death saying he didn't touch them that their parents made them do it for the money
I remember watching the snippet of this on the news the day he died :( I was 8 at the time and didn’t really know who he was (don’t hate me). My parents, who are in their 60s, were absolutely devastated. I was curious and wanted to learn more about MJ; I looked up his music and now, I’ve been a fan for over 10 years. RIP, MJ, we miss you!
If only someone could go back in time to this day and tell him his future. I wonder if he would have listened or whether he would have let it happen. He seemed so proud of this final hurrah and it's such a shame that he didn't get to see his baby through one last time.
I heard this "last phonecall" of his on UA-cam and he said "they are trying to kill me" and that maybe he'll just let them do it. So i guess he was sick of it and didnt care anymore if he's gonna die.. Im pretty sure he knew at least that something is gonna happen. So sad ...
I was quite shocked watching this to see how very tired he appears. Not as much energy as we were used to seeing him with during performances. Im hoping this was due to the fact that this was rehearsal, and the difference in his age since we last saw him perform this live, and not a sign of poor health and an inevitable death just hours later 😔
This was just a rehearsal he would of put more energy if it was a concert but your point still is true if you compare him back in the 80s and at a concert then
In rehearsals, artists don’t put in as much energy because its practice. They prepare for the real thing and get it down, then on stage, when it’s go time, they go all out and mix stuff up with their full energy. But yes you can tell he’s tired, and definitely older; however, he wasn’t as slow and immobile as I would expect at his age. 50 and moving around dancing and stuff like he did in his 20s was obviously not going to happen, but he was still energetic and such.
see his Dangerous rehearsals.. it's quite the same energy in dancing.. though in this clip, he'd put more power on the adlib vocals in Dangerous, that powerful shouting-like adlibs(microphone volume was low) would just be a falsetto / whispers. to me, michael looked fine in this clip... i guess he'd got an energy boost? or maybe he's just really enjoying the moment that he disregards his tired body? maybe... cos i do disregard my body, even if it's tired when i'm doing something that is enjoyable. for example: marathon sex, playing tag, basketball, soccer, hardcore paintball, extreme lasertag, and things like that... i bet there are a lot of secrets still hidden. who knows what that doctor, those from Sony and the people around him had done to him... if only there's some way to resurrect the dead and make them tell their tales
I keep watching this video and I can't help but feel really sad because when he used to perform I was too young to go to one of his concerts no matter how bad I wanted to, and I really, really wanted to. And when I heard that he is doing one last show I was so excited ! No one goes above and beyond like he does, no one does it as good as he does. I wonder how amazing his performance and show would've been, guess we will never know. RIP MJ.
I was sad when he died ...even after 10 yrs , I miss ur dance ,ur voice ,ur smile & everything michael. I loved it when he smile at the end of the vid.U r a true''King of Pop Music'' rip😢😢😭😭💔💔
I was 46 when he died. He was a gifted artist. He had many many problems from the trauma he experienced while growing up. He was "raised right" by his father. Today it would be identified as child abuse. He began performing non stop from the time he was 7. He stopped in 2009 when he was 51. He was constantly hounded by the press and the fans. He was so famous EVERYONE knew him. He held the Guinness World's Record for his Thriller sales. He won the Diamond World Award for selling over 100,000,000 Million Records. He had inspired so many people around the world, musicians everywhere acclaim his talent. He had given over $300,000,000.00 to charity in his lifetime. In the early 80's he shared his time, fame and resources to help make a teenage boy dying from an illness from the blood (AIDS) He needed the blood to survive because he had hemophilia. Then " We are the World". Repeating in song and action that action repeatedly before he was gone. Yet he had only a few close friends. Lisa Presley (who hung with him when her Dad Elvis was doing a show in Vegas and the Jackson Five were doing one also.) Brooke Shields and those "leaving neverland" friends who had a chance at fame but got messed up with drugs and they spend the rest of their lives chasing fame and turning to or against everyone because you care more for their own. So to all who are "sure" he did, I say that Michael was proven not guilty. There is no physical evidence. He was not perfect. He had problems as we all do. But before you post as some of you did, just believe what you want but he has 3 children who love him, family that love him & fans who love him... LOVE not loved. We need to try harder to be nicer. Thanks
No way in this world would MJ have performed 50 concerts, he would have 100 percent collapsed into the first few concerts, still the King of pop and always will be.
I’ll literally never forget coming home from school watching the news with my mom and brother in the living room seeing the hospital on the news from the helicopter view and hearing Michael Jackson may has or may have overdosed and I wasn’t really comprehending it at the time I was like wow but really didn’t understand it until now when I’m 21 I see how much he impacted the world and me because my parents showed me his music and now I understand how much he meant to the world and I wish the world let him live like a normal person but he was literally the most famous person in the world since pretty much he was a kid I don’t even know how much weight that put on him I just hope he’s free now
Michael Jackson was really talking to us with in this last rehearsal performance of his. 'All i wanna say is they don't really care about us...' Indeed they NEVER cared about you Apple Head when they wanted you to do all those shows...😔😔😔
The quality that makes him so so so so special is that he was not just a PHENOMENAL artist but also a very KIND , GENEROUS human being ! He was so pure , so divine ! That what makes him a king !! I have never seen a beautiful human like him!
Makes you wanna climb into the screen and warn him.

He looks good but malnourished, definitely doesn’t look 50 that’s for sure
from what we know, he was coming off of some of the many medications he was taking. he was becoming a healthier guy, but unfortunately had it ripped from him by a unqualified, money hungry weirdo.
@@lucascampbell8482 I don't think that's really true. According to reports he was in such bad condition that they were seriously doubting if he would be able to do the tour at all. He suffered from really bad insomnia (which is assumed to be caused by his scalp burn, which never healed properly) and he was on several medications to try to sleep, and he was badly addicted to demerol. Reportedly he usually had trouble in rehearsals and would usually cut them short. But sometimes, like in this video, he was really sharp and energetic, and it's hypothesized that in those occasions he was high on demerol.
king of pop, you will always be missed :(
lisa bradford forever

RIP Michael
River Gibbs wasn't tho

Right
Even the people who ended up thinking he was a child molester?
All right
before he died he was no longer able to sing, he was being attacked by the press and people were accusing him of bleaching his skin. yet he still was determined to do this tour. mj is a true role model and will be remembered forever. He said that he was most exited about his kids seeing him perform for the first time on a big stage but they never did... you will forever live on in our hearts. WE LOVE YOU MICHAEL JACKSON!!
I'm trying to be a dick or disrespectful but he was a druggy, and died from an overdose so I doubt you could say role model, I see in some ways but mostly not, again trying to be 0% disrespectful
***** 1st off I don't believe he was a drug user or addicted to any substance other than his music.Secondly after seeing this I find it very hard to believe his health was not an issue. I hate to say it.but I believe he choose to leave his public life and hopefully live the remainder of his life in privacy.
henry Darkchylde I agree with Henry. It's okay to like someone but closing your eyes to their discrepencies is just silly. He wasn't accused of being on drugs with no evidence form people who wanted his money.
He admitted being addicted to pain medication himself, many years before his death. There is a complete and comprehensive paper trail of the drugs he was prescribed and an army of people with evidence to show it.
For the record i don't believe he was a child molester for a moment but to hold him up as some sort of perfect saint is just . . . . well - retarded.
He had a strange and hard life. He used drugs to escape it at times. That doesn't make him bad or wrong in any way, it makes him human.
henry Darkchylde Yeah I hate people who comment but don't really have anything to say.
I'd be interested to see what you thought of my comment though bud.
MJ bleached his skin, thats not an accusation, its a fact.
The greatest pain is too see how active Michael was and to know that two days after he has gone... I cry.
And Michael Jackson is not just a legend because of pop music he created but because of everything about him, he was the person who was so respectful towards everyone and respected all cultures make me love him even more, we miss you so much ㅠㅠ
His performance is slow because because he isn't actually performing. He's rehearsing. Jermaine's book "You Are Not Alone" clarifies that MJ usually rehearsed at a half-pace to just sort of learn the moves and the pace at which it's supposed to go. And then he'd go all out while on stage in front on an actual audience.
His deliberately slower moves here aren't out of the ordinary. He rehearsed like this even in his prime.
Many people don't seem to understand the difference between rehearsal and an actual concert.
That's exactly what I thought!! I was thinking to myself "he seems to have so little energy now, but we all know he would be fire at the actual performance!!"
I still find it hard to believe he is gone. Even almost ten years later on.
The truth is he wasn’t in good shape. He was sickly skinny, and was taking 40-50 pills a day, which would instantly kill the normal human. He was a heavy heavy drug addict, and was taking lethal drugs like morphine and propofol. People who worked with him said he hardly used to eat, and would hardly turn up to for these rehearsals. He may look like he’s in good shape, but the inside was destroyed.
@@Imkicelee the truth is the mafia got to him
They literally took this legend away from us too soon 💔
13 years, and the King remains unbreakable. In 2022 we still love U, Michael.
💯❤️
BRIH MREVERSTRUCKED YOU COPIEF IT JUST CHANGE DATE
"Fade out" and it fades with Michael smiling. Because the stage is his happiness. And him performing is my happiness. And as long as I remember his beautiful smile, flawless dancing and angelic voice, I will never forget him. He is basically a part of me. Even though it devastates me to tears every time I think of it, it also comforts me because I know he will be laughing and smiling with everyone he loved that has passed too. And he is finally at peace :) I know he wouldn't want me to cry, so I'm going to wipe away my tears and 'smile though my heart is breaking'. I love you to the moon and back Mike. ✌️
J Davies I will never understand why fans worship celebrities so passionately. The man didn't even know you existed and you want to cry for him. I understand feeling a bit sad at his passing but crying seems a bit too much doesn't it? Especially so many years after his death. And just because he was a good musician and entertainer. You don't even know whether he was a good person or not.
People like Jackson are not just celiebrities, my friend. "Just" a celebrity is Kim Kardashian and Paris. But Michael Jackson touched A LOT of people - globally - with his music. He's on a totally different level. Mind you, I'm just a casual listener. I'm certainly not a hardcore fan. But I know very well how his fans feel, because that's how I feel about other artists. People on the level of Jackson create music with a message, they pour out their feelings into these songs. The fans realize that, they feel that, they appreciate that. There's a very strong connection between a real artist with a real talent and his/her fans. It's something that non-fans simply can't feel and can't understand.
That was deep J.
Abraham 302 He was a good person, i think we can all agree on that, after all the great things he did for children. He never would have hurt a child. But other peoples minds were too fucked and dirty to understand that.
this is deep
He was a perfectly healthy man when he died. Damn drugs did him in.
@@jordanmoody2502 was that quack doctor of his ever convicted
FYI, not only the doctor. There are many people involved😭😭
@@intannurfatihah7896 yeah it's literally known as a homicide
I don't think he was healthy. He weighed like only 50 kilos when he died, that's too little for a man his age.
EDIT: He weighed around 62 kilos which is alot better than 50, but considering his age, 62 was just on the verge of underweight.
I also want to point out that during MJ's last few shows he was taking a drug called Ephedrine, a type of stimulant, which greatly helped with his overall performance. His autopsy, however revealed that his heart was strong and completely healthy (which contradicts the saying that MJ was "a drug addict"). There were no signs of long term drug abuse. Apparently his lungs weren't exactly in great shape but that's expected. As we know, MJ had a history of Demorol usage, but there was no Demorol in his system according to his autopsy, aka he wasn't using it at the time of his death. There were no signs of MJ using or abusing painkillers or other drugs during the periods between 1993-2001 or 2003-2008.
I HATE MURRY HE GAVE HIM DRUGS IN 2009 DID PEOPLE NOT KNOW U DIE WHEN U GET DRUGS HOMICIDE
I wish you were with us.
You were great. A true legend in every sense. MICHAEL JACKSON IS WAS AND FOREVER WILL BE THE BEST.
I sometimes can’t help but to think what he would say about the things that go on today both musically and just in the world.
If he didn’t die. The world will be changed

Everyone who's ever around Michael Jackson was so lucky to be a part of his life
he died physically, but he still alive spiritually in our hearts
That smile at the end was him being happy . For the thought of millions of fans screaming for him. That was his pleasure
Michael will always be in our hearts.. God bless his legendary soul... Hurts seeing him go and then smile before leaving 😔😔
that smile at the end though
and the damn doctor drugged him to death...
its like he knew he was gonna die :(
It gets me every time
That smile looks like he knew it's his last performance and after that it's it
That's why the title of it is "THIS IS IT."
I miss Micheal Jackson... Rest In Peace
It is good to ready your soul, 'cause we don't know our time when God calls us.. For everyone will going to face the judgement seat of Jesus Christ so you and me must be ready for it. Micheal Jackson he is in hell right now and there's no escape from it, I'm sad for his soul he didn't accept Christ before he died. He is satan worshiper that God Almighty doesn't want.. JESUS IS LORD OVER satan. For everyone that is in hell they will separate from the creator of all.. God ALMIGHTY.
And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your soul?
-Matthew 16:26
I miss him, he brought me and my dad closer over the years with his music and I WISH I COULD THANK HIM FOR THAT
That's Beautiful x
Who’s still watching this in 2019?
Hope not childs....ih ih
I watching....watching....am big fan of Jackson......
Who's watching in 2020?
I talk to him.
I am the biggest fan of Michael Jackson
His smile at the end though...Michael Joseph Jackson, always with us 🙌❤
Have you guys noticed, the days before his death, he rehearsed songs that would've impacted the world.
Fuck the press,Michael you are the best
R.I.P Michael Jackson..
Your music last for ever.
You were the best!!!!!
1:47 he smiled!🥺😔
Miss that smile 😥😩
:(
that smile was like "good bye!"🥺🥺💔💔😭😭
He was happy with his performance on this rehearsal. He probably thought to himself "hell yeah, I'm gonna nail this show! MJ's back in the house, baby!"
Yes you were, King. You always have been, people just didn't see it at the time.
I still remember this being played all on tv and what not. I still become sadden whenever his music is played. Losing him and now Whitney is still devastating and I haven't fully come to terms with it.
Me too
Paul Jr Rivera We're losing all the good ones and getting stuck with all the bad 😢
Mocha Caramel agreed ever since michael died , the world lost its light in the darkness , now hate rules over love , when michael was here , he brought love over hate , we are fucked now
Sheshasena Reddy ooh ok
I havent too. Gone too soon! It breaks my heart everytime when i see his tb old videos on youtube and i mostly start crying. I dearly miss him so much but he is alive in our hearts. King of POP forever no mather what.
I was 5 when he passed and i still remember how it was in every new channel even the Spanish ones that my mom used to watch
that smile at the end. MJ FOREVER💗
look at his smile at 1:45, his at peace
His face didn’t move lol 😂 plastic don’t
@IRIE4IPIER yeah, he was overdosed. Which means that he needed drugs in the first place because he was getting sick of all the show he had to do back to back. In fact these were his last planned shows even if he didn't die. He was anything but at peace.
I think they commentor meant that he was at his peace (singing and practicing for his fans)
Louisa Bailey shut up because you don’t know sh’t
Breaks your heart...that smile x
Listen to the lyrics. That's why he was killed.
Dat Boi ?
Dat boi ?
Dat Boi ?
Dat Boi ?
Imagine in 2020s he’d still be going strong. Way too young, I remember that day.
I watched a performance of the king of soul, James Brown, he was almost 70 or 70 at the time, and he was a beast, for one hour he was a beast in that stage. I cannot imagine people saying Michael was sick, and skinny, and blah blah blah. Brown was alcoholic and used drugs as well, heavy drugs, he lived to be 73. He was skinny as well. Mick Jagger is skinny and he uses drugs as water, and he is alive and well. To me, personally, Michael was killed. Maybe not on purpose, but killed.
No he wouldn’t be performing anymore that was his last tour
I'm sad he died. He was a great man and the true king of pop. And most of all I'm glad he dint see anaconda by Nikki. 😭
true 😭
o you obviously didn't hear that the chidren he 'molested' all came forward after his death saying he didn't touch them that their parents made them do it for the money
+jaleshashae b. Lol yeah
+beanzie34 omg I hate their parents! I would just kill my perants if they tried to make me do that
+MspPerfectionists I know, sick right?
Destroyed someones life for money, so wrong
I remember watching the snippet of this on the news the day he died :( I was 8 at the time and didn’t really know who he was (don’t hate me). My parents, who are in their 60s, were absolutely devastated. I was curious and wanted to learn more about MJ; I looked up his music and now, I’ve been a fan for over 10 years. RIP, MJ, we miss you!
MJ is legend. I’m so jaloux at my father, he has experinced MJ live on stage
If only someone could go back in time to this day and tell him his future. I wonder if he would have listened or whether he would have let it happen. He seemed so proud of this final hurrah and it's such a shame that he didn't get to see his baby through one last time.
Yeah
I heard this "last phonecall" of his on UA-cam and he said "they are trying to kill me" and that maybe he'll just let them do it. So i guess he was sick of it and didnt care anymore if he's gonna die.. Im pretty sure he knew at least that something is gonna happen. So sad ...
I was quite shocked watching this to see how very tired he appears. Not as much energy as we were used to seeing him with during performances. Im hoping this was due to the fact that this was rehearsal, and the difference in his age since we last saw him perform this live, and not a sign of poor health and an inevitable death just hours later 😔
This was just a rehearsal he would of put more energy if it was a concert but your point still is true if you compare him back in the 80s and at a concert then
In rehearsals, artists don’t put in as much energy because its practice. They prepare for the real thing and get it down, then on stage, when it’s go time, they go all out and mix stuff up with their full energy.
But yes you can tell he’s tired, and definitely older; however, he wasn’t as slow and immobile as I would expect at his age. 50 and moving around dancing and stuff like he did in his 20s was obviously not going to happen, but he was still energetic and such.
see his Dangerous rehearsals.. it's quite the same energy in dancing..
though in this clip, he'd put more power on the adlib vocals
in Dangerous, that powerful shouting-like adlibs(microphone volume was low) would just be a falsetto / whispers.
to me, michael looked fine in this clip... i guess he'd got an energy boost?
or maybe he's just really enjoying the moment that he disregards his tired body?
maybe... cos i do disregard my body, even if it's tired when i'm doing something that is enjoyable. for example: marathon sex, playing tag, basketball, soccer, hardcore paintball, extreme lasertag, and things like that...
i bet there are a lot of secrets still hidden. who knows what that doctor, those from Sony and the people around him had done to him... if only there's some way to resurrect the dead and make them tell their tales
Misskeeley
Amazing
The saddest part of this performance is that it was 2 days, 2 days, right before he died, It was right before he died which is what makes it so sad.
I cant believe that he died :(
Too sad 😔😣
We love you Michael!! 😘😘❤️❤️❤️
He always gives 100% even if it’s rehearsals a true performer and a king. Missing you MJ
I stood by Michael, and I stand by him today. Greatest ever.
I keep watching this video and I can't help but feel really sad because when he used to perform I was too young to go to one of his concerts no matter how bad I wanted to, and I really, really wanted to. And when I heard that he is doing one last show I was so excited ! No one goes above and beyond like he does, no one does it as good as he does.
I wonder how amazing his performance and show would've been, guess we will never know.
RIP MJ.
yeah, i was 6 when he died. Same with George Michael and Prince, but I was 12. Guess I'll never know.
I'm watching this 11 years later😭😭😭miss him
Still watching 2019 love u Michael Jackson..my king of pop..
I was sad when he died ...even after 10 yrs , I miss ur dance ,ur voice ,ur smile & everything michael. I loved it when he smile at the end of the vid.U r a true''King of Pop Music'' rip😢😢😭😭💔💔
He served his purpose on this planet till the end. Such a legend!!! 😭❤️❤️❤️❤️ He'll forever remain the king of pop. ❤️
I was 46 when he died. He was a gifted artist. He had many many problems from the trauma he experienced while growing up. He was "raised right" by his father. Today it would be identified as child abuse. He began performing non stop from the time he was 7. He stopped in 2009 when he was 51. He was constantly hounded by the press and the fans. He was so famous EVERYONE knew him. He held the Guinness World's Record for his Thriller sales. He won the Diamond World Award for selling over 100,000,000 Million Records. He had inspired so many people around the world, musicians everywhere acclaim his talent. He had given over $300,000,000.00 to charity in his lifetime. In the early 80's he shared his time, fame and resources to help make a teenage boy dying from an illness from the blood (AIDS) He needed the blood to survive because he had hemophilia. Then " We are the World". Repeating in song and action that action repeatedly before he was gone. Yet he had only a few close friends. Lisa Presley (who hung with him when her Dad Elvis was doing a show in Vegas and the Jackson Five were doing one also.) Brooke Shields and those "leaving neverland" friends who had a chance at fame but got messed up with drugs and they spend the rest of their lives chasing fame and turning to or against everyone because you care more for their own.
So to all who are "sure" he did, I say that Michael was proven not guilty. There is no physical evidence. He was not perfect. He had problems as we all do. But before you post as some of you did, just believe what you want but he has 3 children who love him, family that love him & fans who love him... LOVE not loved. We need to try harder to be nicer.
Thanks
Just when 1:00 starts, Michael seems tired, yet he keeps on with his moves. I don't know what, when or how, all I know is that he was just great
Who’s here in 2023 ! King of Pop will never die !! As long as we keep him in our ❤
I can't believe that I'm crying 😭
After he died. Things really went to shit
I just turned 31. But I know how you feel
They did. The world felt like there was a void. A hole after he passed. The world didn't feel the same.
No one can come close to Michael's performances. Truly Magical! Rest in Eternal Peace! ❤
I can't believe after this he died. I shocked in the day and i suffered in the economic crisis at the time in japan.
No way in this world would MJ have performed 50 concerts, he would have 100 percent collapsed into the first few concerts, still the King of pop and always will be.
I’ll literally never forget coming home from school watching the news with my mom and brother in the living room seeing the hospital on the news from the helicopter view and hearing Michael Jackson may has or may have overdosed and I wasn’t really comprehending it at the time I was like wow but really didn’t understand it until now when I’m 21 I see how much he impacted the world and me because my parents showed me his music and now I understand how much he meant to the world and I wish the world let him live like a normal person but he was literally the most famous person in the world since pretty much he was a kid I don’t even know how much weight that put on him I just hope he’s free now
Michael Jackson was really talking to us with in this last rehearsal performance of his. 'All i wanna say is they don't really care about us...' Indeed they NEVER cared about you Apple Head when they wanted you to do all those shows...😔😔😔
The quality that makes him so so so so special is that he was not just a PHENOMENAL artist but also a very KIND , GENEROUS human being ! He was so pure , so divine ! That what makes him a king !! I have never seen a beautiful human like him!
That smile it feel like a bow for his audience from an artist after he finished his show
It wasn’t a coincidence
His final performance was actually in the 24th when he sang the earth song
Yeah, this is from the 23rd. On the 24th he peformed Thriller and Earth Song.
He gave this world 45 years or greatness. Rip MJ. Love ya man
2009 a day we never forgot. The whole block played his music all night
i am his new fan,, and i really love his voice
P.S. I loved the smile at the end it brought tears to my eyes
2023, I’m almost 30 years old and still remember this man so dearly and close to my heart thanks to my dad. ❤
Long live, Michael Jackson. 🔥🫶🏼
I love that song R.I.P. king
