      @@SephPlayshe also had a bad eating disorder. Becuase he thinks if he does not eat anything or something like that the skinnier the body the better the dancing. But that’s not right. Sometimes he would eat but less or sometimes he would eat Becuase of family time. But when he’s dancing or stressed he does not eat anything. Sometimes he would get sick or collapse Becuase of that. In 2009 when he was in rehearsals before he died he was really skinny that some people were worried.

    His whole face and neck are glistening with sweat. It’s not just the lighting or the dancing, it’s his costume. He’s wearing long pants, a shirt and the jacket looks rather heavy. With all that heat wearing those clothes we would sweat till major dehydration. He’s got to have water off stage for his well being.

    In my opinion I think performance wise this was definitely his peak, now when it comes to albums I can't choose between Dangerous and Bad lol can't wait for you to get there!! But here he was really energetic and looked good physically and pshychologically, here his lupus and his health still wasn't that bad but after the 1993 allegations it all really started to get to him... but he was ALWAYS great! Even in pain he gave his all! That's admirable

    I want to do a little promotion for a song by Michael that is totally underrated and gets little attention. It's called "Be Not Always" and is a beautiful ballad by Michael. It was released in 1984 on the Victory album. Written and produced by Michael. Although it is effectively a solo cut by Michael, it featured on the Jacksons' album. It's really worth listen to it.

    Michael was really a daredevil. That cherry picker is suspended over the crowd, i doubt the fans would let him hit the ground if he fell, but then itd orobably also be a mob hed have to find his way out of.
    Alternative lyrics he sings are often part of an earlier demo. He often made so many demos for these songs but maybe he forgot what take ended up on the album, or preferred another one that didn't, who knows. He wrote the song, therefore he has whatever artistic license he wants to change it. Lol

    Regarding how the shows are put together… I honestly can’t answer that question. Best suggestion I have for you is wait until you get to the end of his discography and watch Michael Jackson’s This Is It. That film will show you how a show was put together and how involved Michael Jackson himself was in the process. I honestly can’t wait until you get to that point. Your reactions are great.

It was even on the news at the time, the tour was very long and it lasted for almost 2 years (1987-1989), 123 shows, it was exhausting, then he came out with Dangerous in 1991, he said he really didn't like to tour but he did it for the fans cause he loved to connect with them, another reason why was to raise money for his "Heal The World Foundation", all the proceeds from his concerts were given to charity! :) thought it would be a nice information!

    Correcting my comment in the previous video: I was told that the correct term would be "playback" and not "lyp sinc", with regard to the upcoming tours in which he starts not singing live. I am not an expert who can differentiate these terms. Maybe you can do that when you react. The point is: MJ could sing live very well as you're seeing on this Bad tour. When he didn't sing live on the Dangerous and History tour, it was because he was having health problems.
