As much as he was influenced by all the different ballroom dances, he became so original that he created a his own categoric style to be studied by dancers forever.
I wasn't a rabid Dancing With the Stars fan, but I found this on a search of MJ tribute performances...and it completely blew me away. These folks are excellent in their dedication to their crafts, and they deserve all the applause they get.
I think you meant Mark Ballas. I always thought Mark Ballas was an even better dancer than Derek Hough. But that's just my opinion. Dancing with the Stars hasn't been the same since he left.
@@newman8180 This! I remember when this 1st aired, and was so disappointed that Mark was not in the front at the end. Seeing Mark behind Derek, you can see his dancing was the best.
If they used the original music, i don't think they can alter the song to make it continuous and smooth....bsides, they had to change the rhythm a little to fit the latin and ballroom.
What salsa? This routine incorporates Samba, rumba bolero, and paso doble, with some of Michael Jackson's moves thrown in here and there (especially in the Thriller segment). No salsa to be found.

Shamone ✌️✌️✌️
Michael Jackson would be so proud of them for doing his dance
Amazing and beautiful tribute to the king of pop.
Love you Michael. Long live the king !!!!
love this so much. RIP mj will be forever missed 😌
Great tribute....... love the Thriller group formation near the end with Derek out front. I love Derek, will really miss him when season 20 starts ;((
I remember watching this over and over again
Nice tribute, wish they had played the actual songs though...
I wish they played the actual songs too, but they would have had to pay a ton of money for the rights. That's why they didn't do that.
It sounded like a Jackson singing
Classic dwts! Derek was so good in this! 😍🔥 Miss him

He made thriller. Thriller.
lol that was kick-ass :D
Michael’s Family was in the audience
it’s a crime that they don’t have the band on dancing with the stars anymore
I really like when they did the Wizard of Oz skip. I thought that was cool. I think Mark did it best.

That's Latoya
They always dance salsa to everything lol

How is this a tribute if it’s not him singing ? Disgraceful.
WRONG JACKET!
