I was 12 years old and my whole family was sitting in front of the tv watching this. Michael pulled out that Moonwalk and our mouths fell on the floor! The next day EVERYONE was talking about it ( even segments on the National news broadcasts) and EVERYONE was trying to Moonwalk! It was a sensation and
I could only sort of do it in my socks!! Lol
Such a wonderful memory! The 80's was a fantastic time to be a kid!
I remember watching this live the next day all of us kids were moon walking at school
Trying to.... 🤣
Wow I didn't even read this and I said virtually the same thing
Nobody could dance like Michael Jackson. People were stunned by this moonwalk. Unbelievable talent.
bts could just take a look
@@STARLIGHT_KSA they could just take a look and imagine but never do it😂😤
@@phoenixthemeanix0620 they broke many records and they are considered now to be the most famous people in 2021
@@STARLIGHT_KSA nahhh bruvv bts is trash nobody could break records like the king of Pop nobody could be such a stage performer as Michael Jackson and ohh the most famous people of 2022???🤔. Let's not forget Michael Jackson was world wide big and according to Google 5.8 out of 7 billion people know who Michael Jackson is and it's just one person that is that famous so don't even start with the king of Pop😤
@@phoenixthemeanix0620 100% correct 👍
It’s important that current and future generations understand the shockwave this performance created. It not only launched Michael into super-stardom, it had a significant cultural impact. It was the first time, on a global scale, that non-black teens by the millions were idolizing a black artist. Kids in predominantly white suburbia wanted to dress like him, move like him and, most importantly, they wanted to buy his music. It was a seismic shift in the culture.
I don't think any black artists have come close since then. Whitney, Prince, Beyonce, Usher, and Janet are close, but they didn't reach the level Michael went to!
To think......this young man was 24 going on 25.....had already been performing for nearly 20 years......45 of his 50 years he gave to us. RIP MJ....the King Forever
I was 17 when this song came out. And everyone blasted this on the radio. And the moonwalk was fucking LEGENDARY. No one will EVER compare to Michael Jackson. Ever.
This was the BOMB..I remember seeing this as it happened. OMG.🙆😀😀😀❤️❤️❤️❤️
1988 ?
Me too!
The 80s. What more can be said. Greatest decade of music artists and enduring classics. That dance move at 4.50 to 5.05. Iconic.
He could dance and sing at the same time. Better than anyone else. However as this was a Motown Anniversary, he was not allowed to sing live for Billie Jean as that was not a Motown song. This was at the tail end of he and the Jackson Five did a medley of their biggest hits together and Michael sang live on those. You owe it to yourself to look for the full segment.
Watching Michael perform live is the full gift on display. He gave 110% each time. A unique and magical musical genius and an incredible stellar human being‼️❣️🌹✌️🦋🎶. Don't stop now. You have lots of live performances to get to!
Funny to think about the fact that Motown refused to even play the instrumental live, what's even funnier than that is that MJ only accepted to be in there in the first place if they let him perform his new song, Billie Jean, Motown accepted and then they pulled out the "Hah, this ain't our song so we ain't playing it live :)" lmao
Also, it was added too late for the orchestra to practise so wouldn’t have been possible anyway.
Course he was lip syncing, it was a new song...just remember celebrities in the audience. He was a celebrity to the celebrities.
With so many performances on one stage, lip sync is more than common. Sound engineers would have a nearly impossible task doing the sound of so many different artists on one night. Plus it’s very expensive to do it live.
There’s an art to lip syncing, too!
@@mariettasmith2691 no lmafo. Lip syncing is for pussies
@@whaperry11 he was going sing it live they told him to not because they wouldn’t be able to give him the full affect
@@whaperry11 stfu why you disrespecting Michael like that bruh you bitch made fr
It's lip syncing, that's why it sounds perfect, but still...
That has not been confirmed as of yet that he was lip synching.
You should watch his MTV live performance. He really got with it. But this video you just played Billie Jean was the 1st black video played on MTV. Thanks Mike for everything you did for everyone.
He was awesome, but it sounds like the studio version because he was lip-syncing.
I remember watching this, after this was over with, I remember begging my mom let me go get the album that night and I did. Great memories . Forever Michael Jackson fan.
This was the first album I saved up my allowance for as a little kid. 2nd or 3rd grade? I remember my dad taking me to the record store at night on a school night to take me to buy the Thriller album the day it came out! It sold out fast everywhere!
This was great for that time, but later he enhanced this performance of this song even more. You need to check this song on some of his tours or check it out on his 30 year anniversary. Outstanding. Plus the performance with all his brothers that night was unreal.
I watched this on TV live in 1983 (10th grade.). This performance blew the minds of the American public. It is important to note that back then we only had 4 channels to choose from. So pretty-much the entire country was mind blown. 🥰
I just love your energy. It feels genuine. idk how you keep such a good vibe going all of the time, but more power to you babe! Keep it going. ❤✌
Magic, never to be repeated.
HazeBruv, in all honesty, he's probably lip-synching. They do that for these huge televised shows. No shame in it.
Yeah I was thinking this too...it sounds identical to the album version, I think he's lip syncing. The dancing is great but a lot of musicians sing AND move AND play instruments. When you add in the creepiness of his later life I just feel like Michael Jackson is really overrated...still a talent but not in my top 5 artists by a long shot.
He sang live for the medley beforehand. This song wasn’t added until too late for the orchestra to rehearse so wasn’t able to be ‘live’. But therefore meant he was able to make the overall performance ‘perfect’.
Yes he is. MJ is the one. He is a LEGEND. Love MJ. I've for all his album's. RIP MJ. You are the legend NO ONE will EVER top you.
First time America saw the new Michael Jackson image... It was so crazy...
The king 🤴 off POP THE BEST NOBODY LIKE HIM
EVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! THEAT IS TALENT GENERATION OF 2020
Check out, “Smooth Criminal,” live in Munich, 1997. You will really enjoy it.
The video features clips from Fred Astaire movies. Astaire was in the audience that night, and called Jackson the next day to tell him that his performance had blown him away. (Jackson was just as blown away to get the call!)
I remember watching this on TV when the award show was going on. His moon walk was like " I can't believe he just did that ... wait ... What did he just do? Do it again"! Everyone was like I want to do that ... wait, HOW DID HE DO THAT? IT WAS AWESOME! Michael Jackson was so HOT back then. Everybody wanted to dance like him, be like him, and definitely dress like him. I remember the sparkling silver glove he was wearing. Everybody started wearing one glove after that. What a performance! What a performer!
Haze, you really should do a reaction video to THRILLER!!!! I remember that like it was yesterday and that blew me away. Please check it out and thanks for a great reaction video once again. Love to you! 😘💕💞
i don't know who you are but already i love you the way you reacting to our Engel Michael Jackson our king
He was quite a talent. He could write, sing, and perform to perfection.
You should check out micheal Jackson Smooth Criminal
Germaine was very jealous of Mike.
Hate to burst your bubble, but Michael lip-synced this I don't know why but it kind of doesn't matter because it's still the greatest performance I ever saw IN MY LIFE!! But he did sing this live many times, and those performances can be found anywhere on YT..I saw this when it aired and I knew this was stellar!!Moonwalk..still awesome 38 years later!!! RIP!!!G.O.A.T.!!!!!!MJJ!!!!👏👏👏👏
Who cares if he lip-synced or not. The dancing alone was well worth the price of admisión. Get real, the man was one of a kind.
Yep , my mom & I watched it on tv & jammin like crazy
Watched it live, and the next day EVERYBODY was trying to do the moonwalk at school. Magical moment.
Ironically, I can't dance to save my life but I got the moonwalk down fast.
The first black men ho apeared on M.tv...he really change the world ,the music, the videos, our live, our perception about music and dance. Not manny words to describe this men, just say that: " in my opinion , not a king of Pop ,a god of pop music " ...😢😢 R.I.P beautiful soul
I watched this live as a kid. I remember everyone talking about it the next day this was everything.
Michael did different dance steps instead of The Moonwalk during rehearsal. He didn't want anyone to know what he was going to do. The camera man said he almost panned the camera the wrong way because he expected him to walk forward. After that he was more careful and super nervous about missing another unexpected move.
You don't hear much heavy breathing when there is lip syncing
Who cares about him lip syncing all musical artists lip sync sometimes even Elvis
@@boonee8279 Just stating a fact....include Brittney spears with that group
Best live performance EVER!!!!!!!!
The voice! The dance moves! The quality of song! Triple threat! Glad you got to feel what we felt. G.O.A.T!
Hell yeah, the KING of pop and music imo! More MJ reaction please!
No doubting Michael Jackson's talent as a dancer (copied by many artists), Great Singer but also a Great Songwriter. I know you should never go against a popular misconception. But that isn't a Moonwalk, Moonwalks are a slow stepping forward motion. What he was doing was the Mime's impression of being blown backwards by the Wind.
It’s actually known as the backslide.
@@goldencherry9033 backslide caused by being blown back by the wind
Sorry to burst your bubble but he was singing to Tracks( with a open mic ). However, when we saw this for the first time we were astonished ! We had never seen anyone move like that ! It was Michael making a statement that he was his own artist and separated himself from The Jackson 5/ Jacksons ! Then he went own to become the Legend he is !!!
I remember watching this live. Damn I'm old.
Still magic to watch and listen to. He didn't invent the move but he made it his own.
I would’ve payed my life to see this man preform live! What an aura around him🔥
now you believe what important person we lost true gentelmans true genius true human being like Engel
Check out 1988 Grammy performance.
One of my favorite songs of his; awesome performer.
Mike let 'em know that Black is Beautiful, my Brother.
I remember watching this as kid, when he did the moonwalk asking my dad, "How does he do that?!". My dad said it was a camera trick haha.
Sometimes people are so caught up watching him that they don't really listen. That's a really good song. Well sung too.
It's an amazing performance for sure, and not to take anything away from it, but Michael was lip-synching to the studio recording here.
Gives me the chills. I've loved MJ since he first started. I feel sorry for people that refuse to listen to him now. I can seperate the artist from his personal life.
He's a legend no matter what.
With MJ, there’s no need to separate the artist from his personal life. He was a great humanitarian and for anyone that thinks Leaving Neverland is so overwhelming, just check what John Ziegler had to say about it (when he was totally ready to believe the whole story).
Then take time to watch Square One. I mean if you sit through 4 hours of LN, you can also take an hour to watch Square One, right? 😊
@@NathanVeenstra I had not heard of Square One. I will check it out. Thanks
@@busterbrown446 John Ziegler is brilliant imo. All he cares about is facts, he’s not an MJ fan, but an advocate for truth.
Love MJ and all his songs 😃 HB
You are hyped young brother......glad you enjoying this.......I never get tired of watching this....
This video is what inspired me to dance….and I’ve won a talent show at my School by dancing to this
I was 2 months shy of turning 16 when this Motown 25th anniversary aired on TV. Great memories of my teens! Michael was 24 at this performance. He would have turned 25 in August.
Right before this performance, Michael and his brothers The Jacksons performed. Find that segment if you can.
He was lip-syncing, believe it or not. They did that a bit back then. You can tell because it sounds just like the studio track.
Big deal he's not the only one that lip sync all musical artists lip sync sometimes even Elvis
Pure greatness 👑⭐️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️also react to Michael Jackson scream ft Janet
THIS is a huge part of our history!! I recall watching him hit that moonwalk..my jaw dropped!!✌💗🎶🙏
PS it's totally lip synced..they did a lot of that in the 80's!
It was funny how MJ gradually crept up on all the big-time Artists during this time period, and this is the performance when he 'floored' it, and left EVERYBODY in the dust!! Even the legions before him had to 'bow down'. Facts!
Yep. I remember when this happened. It WAS magical!!✌️😎
Mj king of music
He sounds the same dancing live, as on the Album, because he's miming. Can't believe you can't see it 🙃
You gotta react to Michael Jackson Smooth Criminal Munich 1997
I`m sooo glad I`ve seen him twice in Germany ! Great Show....never seen anything better !!!
Hey. Can you please react to two Songs (Wolf! + Falco) ? Find it in my playlist Thank you very much
I remember watching this on TV live... Man all we did was try to moonwalk the next day. It was so freaking huge
I remember watching Micheal it was Amazing one of favorite memories as a kid thanks Michael 👍
Love Michael.
In his concert ,he sings live and dance like that at the same time ,that was something that amazed me to, and the hole world, just like Elvis, Frank Sinatra..😢👏👏
In an instance, this performance shoot Michael from legendary to kingdom hood.
Tenía 16 años, cuando vi esta presentación en TV, y fue pura Magia! Ver a Michael Jackson casi bailando en el aire, levitando. Gran tiempo!
You can clearly see and hear that it's playback if you're really familiar with the studio recording but I certainly won't fault you for trusting Mike to be able to sound like that while on stage XD
imagine being in the audience that day or seeing this on tv the first time you didn't know on that day that history was being made but you sure could feel it that day! all the more Michael Jacksons death hit the fans so badly. in addition the executives had To BEG mmichale to this one (and only) television spot. this one appearance gained him millions of fans more at the time.
Lip syncing..what we called miming back in the 60's..
Legendary talent, 200 years from now this video will still come up when we are dead and gone
mj forever please react i just cant stop loving you wembly please more mj
there's story behind the night on the show he song and dance black people at that time they've not aloud to be on MTV they wanted Michael to open the show Michael say in one case that he song and dance by himself he really was fighting for black people
Fred Astaire called him after the show to compliment him!
Only one MJ. RIP .....
Great performance.
Live lip-syncing
sorry but he was lip syncing, he wasnt singing live.
I watched this live and it changed my life forever @
That sound 1 million percent lip synced
Watched it as it happened. Love to see others watch it now! ❤️
He would've loved to hear you call this magic! Ironically he hated this performance because he didn't stand on his toes for long enough!
I love to hear you laugh. Be cool. 9-4-2021
Sorry to burst your bubble that was being sung live
I was a Rocker into Van Halen when that came out and even being 180° from my genre of music, his talent was undeniable.
No doubt a G.O.A.T. And he even got Eddie Van Halen to do the solo in Beat It. MJ was the Prince of Pop and I doubt we will ever see anything like that again.
R.I.P. Michael
KING OF POP you mean!? 😎👑
He was lip sinking but.... he's still the king
FIRST!
I'm 99.99% sure he's just lip syncing to the studio version. This was my senior year of high school.
Yeah, he is lip syncing but I do not blame him. Dancing while singing at the same time is tough and can easily run out of breath.
It makes me so happy that you love this video.
Whoo hoo! So I should ask my kids if watching this was their "Beatles on Ed Sullivan" moment. Amazing. Dang Fame and Drugs that did the man in.
I was just a kid at the time but still remember seeing a clip of that performance on the 6pm news here in Australia. What a massive moment in music!
Your reaction is so good!!! Look at the joy he brings. I was the same watching it for the first time, I had to keep pausing. Imagine this is your first TV performance to seal your place in the industry.... nah. He is the GOAT. You should watch Billie Jean Bad Tour Wembley as that was actually sang live and he was incredible.
My favorite Michael Jackson song by far, you did a great job God rest in peace
That crowd is way too mellow! 😂
This was Michael at the absolute pinnacle of his career.
No, not pinnacle. After this he went stratospheric.
Facts, breh!
