How does he keep getting better on these songs? I didn’t think there could be a better-then I see another clip! Fantastic!
Thank you for posting these, I was at the concert but of course I was so excited I feel like I can’t remember a thing :-/
He looks like he’s really enjoying himself up there. Keep it going Michael . Only a month & a half to go before your real career begins!!
WOW! The audience reactions were awesome! love it!!!!
i usually say OMG that was amazing! but this time im going to say OMG that was totally awesomely fantasticly amazing!! Keep rockin michael!
The audience absolutely adored Michael. The screams started with the first beat, as Michael was ascending up on stage and it was nonstop adoration. I was on the main floor in the middle. We were all singing along and rockin reacting. He did responded by the love, and that is why you can see that he totally was energized by the audience. I do not think he was disappointed by Detroit.
The videos were not perfect however, they captured the essence of Michael’s performance in Detroit.
I say these videos are great….they have the feel of some old R & R films from the 50’s & 60’s such as the up angle shot makes you feel like UR there. They pick up details ( ex: the guitar solo) and the face zoom is the best so far. You can sense the connection between MJ and the audience. Also the editing…apparently there was more than one camera almost like a TV production. Good Job!
These vids are so great! Michael is such a natural performer, and the crowd was going crazy from the moment he appeared onstage. It is not hard to see why he is winning over so many new fans with each show. Michael you are a total rockstar!
Wow… Thanks so much for these videos!
Michael is definitely a true rock star..
Oh man, when I watch videos like these ones, I still can’t believe no one is willing to sign him on a major label. I still hope that after he is done with his record someone takes interest in him. He has everything to become a big star.
I hope a deal that’s he’s interested in, surfaces soon.
Go MJ!
He is just consistently good – no two ways about it, Michael was born to entertain.
Can’t wait to see where he’s at in twelve months!
Thanks so much for posting the videos and to whoever recorded them – THANKYOU !
dream on is cute …at 1:28 you can see him bite his lip….it’s hot! This is what happens when you watch to many of his performances…it’s the little things you notice that he does different.
He is by far the best one of the bunch. He’s amazing.
He’s “burnishes like a supernova”!!
Sorry this is a bit off topic but i met michael on the 23rd and i have a picture of michael and i but its on my friends camera so when she gives me the picture i will post it. sorry for the totally off topic post. lol
Just can’t get enough of Michael. Looking forward to more pictures and videos of him. Thanks!
Oh, I loved when he pointed (at the ladies) and sang “‘Pretty Mamma’s. This boy has just got ” IT” Good Lord get this boy making records, for pete sakes.
This, is one of his best!– I have watched them all in the past few months–he is really coming into being a great artist!!
Your passion is coming in LOUD and CLEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MJ is getting better and better with each performance, really strong and powerful, Dream On is amazing, his interaction with the crowd is so good and you can tell
how much the audience appreciates the connection,
BTW, the “ladies in the audience” would probably faint if he decided to play a bit more with IAWBIAR….very hot, lol.
Love this post from mjsbigblog – she’s right, the only thing I noticed in the entire song was Michael.
Then Michael goddamn Australian Johns and the American Idol Backup Singers did “Pride.” Which I keep hearing on the radio, when I’d not heard it since. You know. The 90’s. He just sounds amazing when he’s singing Bono. Maybe it’s the accent. I don’t know.
Well now I will pick my jaw up off the floor….Michael you never seem to amaze me anymore….I know when I click it, it’s gonna be perfect!!!
TOTAL ROCKSTAR PERFORMANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mike…you put Steven Tyler to shame!! You are the next SUPERSTAR…NO DOUBT!
