Unfortunately, it appears his dance is not worshiping The God, perhaps just a god.........

He's just trying to get it across finally that Billie Jean is not his lover.

ARRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

I've had that song stuck in my head for DAYS. Ever since he died and I heard it on the radio.

:banghead

I wasn't a fan, I don't like his music, and I can't get that bloomin' song out of my head!!!!

(and now you had to bring it up, again, thanks RW! :D )

Honestly, I really liked his Thriller album and even some of the songs off of Bad -but virtually nothing since.

(By the way, I have the video of Captain EO if anyone is interesed! "We are here to saaaaavvveeee the world.......!")

Renda,

I had noticed the same thing. For all of his health issues he still had the moves! The rehearsal was a walk through and it is reported that MJ did not fully engage in the vocals and dance moves as he would in a performance except for just a few times like the clip they released.

I believe they will try to cobble together the best moments from this rehearsal that was never supposed to be seen by the public and produce a DVD. I felt sorry for all of the dancers and everybody else who had been working so hard on this production to not even get to perform it a single time.

How would you like to be the promoter having to refund $85 million dollars in ticket sales! They had sold 750,000 tickets in just four hours for the 50 London shows.

I thought Janice was going to step in and do the shows?

If they're smart, they'll turn these shows into MJ tributes.

LOL! Renda! I saw that clip before you posted it here and I thought the same thing!!! LOL!

Well, he never could beat the Eagles, but I did have his music - back in the day! LOL!

LOL! I don't listen to them anymore. I also loved Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band, Phil Collins, Fleetwood Mac, Journey, Lionel Richie, Jackson Browne, Linda Ronstadt, Marshall Tucker Band and Ronnie Milsap.

Bob Seger's 'Old Time Rock & Roll' was my favorite song ever. (of the secular variety)

That's quite a bit of pelvic action. Renda, what kind of campmeeting have you been going to? :ursofunny

Janice? Did you mean Janet?

At first they talked about having someboy or multiple people doing that but I think then decided that 50 shows was way too many to get big time stars to commit to so they are refunding the money or sending a souvineer in place of the concert for fans who desire that.

It will be interesting to see if the promoters insurance company will pay for at least part of the $85 million dollars in tickets being refunded.

Of course now there is talk they will be able to use the audio and video recordings of the last rehearsals as the basis for possibly a record / DVD. Which is kind of a shame because it was walk throughs of the performance and MJ was not giving it his all most of the time.

I thought that didn't look right. Yeah, Janet. :)

Unless they want to turn the stage over to Sis. Alvear? I'm sure she'd love the opportunity to address a crowd that size. ;)
