@@MichaelJoseph-vb5ml yeah he didn’t live in the real world. He was naive just like the children. He had no childhood and he didn’t develop as a normal adult.
@@josephburney2283 he had to learn the hard way that people will turn on you for reasons beyond your own control. The only thing you can sometimes control, is not to put yourself in that scenario in the first place. He almost did something else stupid once. Thankfully Lisa Marie put her correct perspective onto it He was going to visit England to meet Venables and Thomson. The boys that killed Bulger. He didn't believe children would kill children that way and wanted to ask them questions around the incident. However, Lisa Marie said visiting them would be like rewarding them for killing James Bulger. If anything, go and visit the mother and family of James and send condolences is what Lisa Marie recommended. For once he took her advice. But never sent the Bulger family any letters or condolences.
He only appreciated being around them because he experienced, through their company, what he didn’t have the chance to experience himself as a child. They also wouldn’t judge him like adults would. Children are pure and they see the world in a much simpler way than we do. MJ was set up and it is truly heartbreaking.

@@AnonymousDeveloper1 We actually could not much in the context but we had quite an incredible stare at each other, like a game. We both completely forgot his own stardom within that moment.
I’m pretty sure lesser vocalists than MJ had to grind through much more comprehensive comping than this. He was a perfectionist for sure, but he was also a great singer to boot, meaning he didn’t have to do thousands of takes like some actually did back in the day. The multitrack tapes for Def Leppard’s Pyromania album famously were translucent by the time the lead vocals had been finished. For example.
Mj demo ( he used real orchestra) its happen when budget has no limit. he made vocal harmony in one take. Billie jean was mixed 92 time for take the second version. its happen when u are perfectionist
The absolute discipline and drive for perfection is why he was the greatest of all time. This kind of attention to detail would drive the average person mad😂
Imagine running back vocals on tape, just to cut & splice for the perfect audio experience. If that was the case today, a lot of artist would have gave up by now. We have it easy today. Tedious craftsmanship.
As a recording artist and a virgo (like mike) lol i feel so much better knowin that even the greats did so many takes until it felt perfected. I always thought these artist went in with one take. I used to feel bad for having to redo takes. I see now that its all apart of the process. We miss u mj 🫶🏾
That's how you get prefection (combining the best parts together) but in other times you want just one take, or maybe that one take has emotions and feels that are unique. Generally you go for more takes, but it can happen you just "kill in it" with one take.
Thanks a million for sharing this video with us. Its so priceless to watch Michael in the studio at work.The whole album is a mastrrpiece including this song. But the thing I like the most in this video is to see Michael drinking tea (or coffee) while working. This is so adorable to see him like this with a cup of tea, so adorable and so bittersweet.... Miss and love him a lot.
@@shreeharibhavik i watched it once more and now im sure that it s a cup of tea, not coffee, coz there is a string with a paper label hanging down on the side of the cup, and a spoon in the cup to hold a tea bag 🙂. Its interesting that some people prefer to take a tea bag and a spoon out of their cup before drinking tea, and some leave a tea bag and a spoon in their cup and drink their tea with the tea bag and spoon in the cup... I think the fact that Michael was drinking such simple tea with a tea bag in his cup shows that in real life he was a very humble down- to- earth man, so much immersed in creating his music... i mean, he could have a chef in the studio to make him the best and the most delicious tea possible, and he was sipping very simple tea brewed with a tea bag....
@@HGS434 Why are you saying that this video was stolen? Are you sure? Its no good to steal videos, and im really sorry if its the case here and im really sorry if it hurts somebody s feelings or violates somebody s privacy... but you know, i guess a person who did it, did not have any bad intentions towards MJ...this person just wanted everybody to know what an awsome, sweet and fantastic guy Michael was... Ive been Michaels fan since 1993, back then I used to play Dangerous album almost 24/7 in my room, and my parents used to say that MJ became our family member. Losing him in 2009 was like losing a family member... I didnt watch this video just for fun or out of mere curiosity, i watched it because Michael has always been my inspiration , i love him dearly and i appreciate him a lot for all the moments of joy, happiness and inspiration he has given to me through his music. And there are millions of people like me all over the world who love him and just wanna get an idea what kind of person he was in real life, coz for many people like me he is much more than just a singer, he is the man who changed my life... I wish people who own similar videos with Michael could share them with MJs fans and the rest of the world, because these videos show that Michael was such a sweet, kind and real man with a great sense of humour. The more people will see such videos the less they will believe in various insane rumours and allegations regarding Michael.

Before Pro Tools, plugins, compressing dynamics to crap and relying on Auto-Tune, being a mix engineer and singer took much more work, but it was greatly rewarding.
Wow, it was layers upon layers of subtle, nearly undetectable differences or nuances that he could pick up on & separate, & then stack up that made his music sound so rich, & much better than every one else!!! Pure genius #forevermissed
Comping each little vocal part piece by piece, to assemble the perfect edit of all those takes. Painstakingly tedious process. He said "take 43." I wonder how many there were.
Apparently there were a total of 50 takes, because that was the maximum amount of tapes they could record. It was very expensive to record all 50 tho, so they would often say to michael that the maximum was 10 to spend less money
I always wondered if he got tired of his own songs especially after having to sing them for years straight on tour. I kinda get now why he always switched up his style each album. He probly got tired of disco funk rnb after off the sall and thriller and victory and victory tour
@@erenyeeagah204 sure he does, like any human, but the only difference is the level of professionalism, so he always kept the same level. Sadly these days but even then, some singers just started to give up after years of singing the same songs, so they didn't even tried anymore.
It means Michael had at least 44 takes of the lead vocals. The admiration I have for him and for this team couldn't be greater. Bruce was a master at vocal comping.
Vi um vídeo em que Michael Jackson falava, mostrava e replicava o som em tudo o que se movia: o andar, o tocar no chão, uma folha de uma árvore que sai e a que fica, do pó, do respirar, etc. O amar, viver, revolucionar e criar música. Ele respirava música, seu corpo é a própria dança. Até me emociono em lembrar desse talentoso raro. Preciosidade. Criação do Divino.
This guy was obsessed with crafting perfection. A maniac in the studio. In a way it's a shame that his discography is so small, but in another way it's probably a blessing because he worked so hard on every single song, it took him a long time to be ready to put it out into the world.
The thing about MJ that still stands true to this day is the amazing production quality of all his music. The mix is just on point, and a big reason is certainly that MJ himself was in the studio during the entire process.
I love you Michael. Also Bruce, what a great guy! RIP to both of them! Thank you for the work of art you gifted humanity. You will both be remembered and studied for thousands of years as some of the greeatest to ever live!
Imagine being in that studio next to MJ? Michael was definitely the biggest name in music, maybe the most famous person in the world. He was on top of the world and being able to work with 1 on 1 is crazy.
Thats in studio One at Larrabee North in Studio City, CA. That place was my home first when Giorgio Moroder owned it in 1987. Then years later when I worked at Larrabee studios. I knew Bruce Swedien very well. Was once at his home on his ranch miles north on the 101 freeway. My sense of humor was a little too much for old Bruce,...LOL.
Omg coming across videos like this makes me feel 11 years old again 😅 I was so in love with Michael in middle school and wanted to be a singer. All I did was try to find rare videos like this and just study him lol you learn so much watching the greats.
I feel like Bruce Swedien was a godfather for Michael in the studio. Michael loved Bruce's talent so much and it showed. I read Bruce's interview the other day and he said Michael never used autotune/pitch correction. Other engineer/mixer, Dave Way said Michael didn't allow anyone to remove his clapping hands sound, his breath, every shit you hear through his mouth. He knew what he's doing 😂
Crazy to think that those digital Sony PCM DASH things were state of the art back then and probably worth a quarter of a million or more. Now you can literally pick one up for less than a 16 track analog machine
C’est quoi ce travail de titan c’est un truc de malade 🥵 MJ ne laissait rien au hasard , il a fait combien de prise pour un cour passage énorme titanesque ❤ kop ❤
The crazy part is, because it's MJ all of them sound almost identicalal but the fact that he's checking for the right nuance is genius..
Such a perfectionist but that's why he's the GOAT musician like Da Vinci was the goat painter every stroke every last detail mattered

MJ could put a cup of tea over the 1M dollar console. No problem.
Current rappers are throwing whole parties in those studios and you’re amazed by a cup of tea 😭

Vi um vídeo em que Michael Jackson falava, mostrava e replicava o som em tudo o que se movia: o andar, o tocar no chão, uma folha de uma árvore que sai e a que fica, do pó, do respirar, etc. O amar, viver, revolucionar e criar música. Ele respirava música, seu corpo é a própria dança. Até me emociono em lembrar desse talentoso raro. Preciosidade. Criação do Divino.
For every line, he recorded well over a dozen takes. This is why his lyrics flowed a certain way on the dangerous album.
2 Legends together recorded and their spirits captured for life amazing footage. Thank you for sharing ,,, R.I.P. Bruce and MJ xx
This guy was obsessed with crafting perfection. A maniac in the studio. In a way it's a shame that his discography is so small, but in another way it's probably a blessing because he worked so hard on every single song, it took him a long time to be ready to put it out into the world.
small discography? which Michael Jackson you talkin about? cant be the one from Gary
@@JaeRocReactshe literally has one of the smallest discography’s from a artist ever, move along mj stan
@@TheLocalPeoples nah he doesnt 😂😂 go troll elsewhere
@@JaeRocReacts nah bud, I ain’t lying
Bro he released two albums per decade. His discography is small. Go count how much his contemporaries released in that time.@@JaeRocReacts
"that was 12... it was 17 to me" amazing a reconstruction of a song thats already amazing
Genious's at work 👑🌻❤️
The thing about MJ that still stands true to this day is the amazing production quality of all his music. The mix is just on point, and a big reason is certainly that MJ himself was in the studio during the entire process.
ABSOLUTE Genius, we know.
As a artist myself I love watching other artists create their art such as music
0:30 Bruce calls this take "doo-doo" and Mike looks at the camera, shocked, that someone is there filming his imperfections LOL
Michael Jackson ❤
This dude was so meticulous! Watching him and Kobe has truly spoiled me. It's no wonder I'm such a perfectionist! This stuff rubs off.
He’s the best
Great full for sharing this precious document!
Michael on duty!!!!!!
I love you Michael. Also Bruce, what a great guy! RIP to both of them! Thank you for the work of art you gifted humanity. You will both be remembered and studied for thousands of years as some of the greeatest to ever live!
Only Michael could hear the difference between each take of that track. King Of Pop Forever❤❤❤❤
Context: Go with it, go with it, JAM
Priceless footage
That desk drum beat at 2:58 was ✅
Serious Effect if you listen closely
Watch his hand
Perfectionist
RIP GOAT! RIP HEAVY D!
If you here him at 3:00 mark tapping his pencil ✏️ it sounds like he was making the beat for the song “ they don’t care about us”.
It’s not. It’s the beat to Serious Effect with LL Cool J
very calme but perfectionist
The sound on this song was unmatched at the time.
Imagine being in that studio next to MJ? Michael was definitely the biggest name in music, maybe the most famous person in the world. He was on top of the world and being able to work with 1 on 1 is crazy.
Awesome! A tru master🙏🏾
King of Pop @ his Best! Jam! I miss this dude 💯💪🏾🔥
I kept watching that mug! Well done Mike, show 'em who's boss!
We had our Mozart, it a was privileged to have lived those times
Mj a legend fr he will forever be the best his music is timeless rip 😢🎉😮🔥💪🔥💪🔥😊
Dos maestros en su salsa💯👍
The man is a legend
Майкл Легенда! Навечно!
こんな感じでレコーディングをしていたなんて初めて見ました！普通の人と同じ環境であの天才的なdangerousアルバムが創られていたんですね。本当に普通の歌手と同じですね
Wow, this is great material! You see Michael was really cooperative and a great guy with huge interest in details.
Now this whole studio can be replicated on a cell phone - but not the talent that michael brought into it 💖
Thats in studio One at Larrabee North in Studio City, CA. That place was my home first when Giorgio Moroder owned it in 1987. Then years later when I worked at Larrabee studios. I knew Bruce Swedien very well. Was once at his home on his ranch miles north on the 101 freeway. My sense of humor was a little too much for old Bruce,...LOL.
Omg coming across videos like this makes me feel 11 years old again 😅 I was so in love with Michael in middle school and wanted to be a singer. All I did was try to find rare videos like this and just study him lol you learn so much watching the greats.
I feel like Bruce Swedien was a godfather for Michael in the studio. Michael loved Bruce's talent so much and it showed.
I read Bruce's interview the other day and he said Michael never used autotune/pitch correction.
Other engineer/mixer, Dave Way said Michael didn't allow anyone to remove his clapping hands sound, his breath, every shit you hear through his mouth. He knew what he's doing 😂
Su expresión cuando mira a cámara es encantadora.
Crazy to think that those digital Sony PCM DASH things were state of the art back then and probably worth a quarter of a million or more. Now you can literally pick one up for less than a 16 track analog machine
Man even Mike was camera shy! Now everyone is so quick to pull out the camera and you can tell the difference in the world 😢
God at work....
C’est quoi ce travail de titan c’est un truc de malade 🥵 MJ ne laissait rien au hasard , il a fait combien de prise pour un cour passage énorme titanesque ❤ kop ❤
Pra mim Dangerous é o melhor álbum do Michael Jackson, a essência do Rei do Pop está nele. MJ Forever!
hefefefefe u wot?
Dangerous is my favourite album as well. I think its the best album of all times an nations, its just a masterpice.
That was so fun.
