If I were a Michael Jackson fan I would probably give this 10 out of 10. This isn't my kind of music, and Jackson wasn't my kind of person, but this video released three years after his premature death and uploaded recently to YouTube in the wake of yet more long debunked lies about his private life is a fitting tribute to an enormous talent.
The show is not all Jackson, and features Sheryl Crow, who launched her own career as a singer-songwriter on the strength of acting as one of his backing singers. There is a fairly long instrumental set while he takes a break, and there are the male dancers. In fact, this performance is as much visual as audio, spectacularly choreographed. Clearly there was little room for improvisation, so it beggars belief how many hours of rehearsals were put into it.
This is the way the world should remember Michael Jackson when not only the child sexual abuse allegations but the plastic surgery and all the other bizarre idiosyncrasies have been long forgotten.
