Numbers don't lie = Greatest Entertainer To Ever Live. As of today MJ fan base is almost 5 billion and is the second most know person to ever live and the most famous artist to Ever Live and in 97' was the most famous person on the Earth. Nobody is coming close to this man.
The hysteria around MJ his whole life was insane. More than any other artist. You only need to look at Munich 99 arrival moment on RU-vid or Wetten Dass 99 (where people were crying as soon as he spoke). Man, I lived through it all and he literally was the most famous person that ever lived. Serious next level shit.
Bro I love MJ too but where do yall get these outrageous 5Billion fans myth from? 🤣🤣 I wish it was true. I really do, because I believe he's the greatest ever. But 5 billion fans? Even the 4.8billion I heard before Is nonsense. There's no data to support this claim
@@ayaanbretmitchell9830 what source do you have that corroborates this 5billion fans outrageous claim as a fact? Where's the data or evidence for it? You can't just call something a fact and have nothing to show for it as proof
@@for-house-stark I can see you're emotionally charged with your confirmation bias, but being bolshy and condescending is not a good attribute. You're a MJ fan yet you know not much about him. I'm 44 and I knew this fact back in 93. Think it was printed in a paper. Not too sure if you're aware but MJ was extremely famous. Population of the world in 80s was what 6 billion? Something like that, and to everyones knowledge EVERY single person on earth was a fan. Unless you lived through it I suppose young minds can't comprehend it. Ok so nearly 3 billion watched the memorial so realistically that's 3 billion households. Chances are you'd have families at every home. That in itself answers your question. Then you have the fact the whole of Asia and the whole of India were fans that's minimum 2-3 billion. Lastly some people more brainier than me have posted up on Quora with more facts, but as I said in 93 this was the case. It'll be much more now. Everyone's but hurt cos they think Taylor swift or Beyonce is more popular than MJ then wonder why parts of the world don't even know who they are. Also I'm willing to bet a years wages if either of these two died tomo they'd never get 6 months of paparazzi coverage on TV, papers and radio nor would they get that many watching the memorial. Princess Diana had similar amount watching her funeral so she's in a similar category fan wise yet MJ was still more famous.
"Human Nature" is one of Michael's best songs. I'm glad you two reacted to this performance because he was singing live, where as, the two previous performances of his you reacted to, he was lipsynching. I've seen this many times and always get a kick out of the sound effects he makes with his mouth. Ultimate showman.
Absolutely prime MJ. Everything he did here there were cheers. He always had a fondness for London Wembley, that's why I feel his final shows were going to be held at O2. But that singing from the crowd still gives chills. The hysteria outside the venue was insane, even the police were in awe of him (all on RU-vid). An exceptional human being. The most famous and loved human being there ever was.
The Greatest & Most Natural Vocal Performance Of All Time! No vocal gymnastics or any technical singing just pure emotion and God Given Talent Long Live The King Of Music Forever! Michael Joseph Jackson😇🙌🏽👑💖🌟(And I must say alot of not only MJ fans but also casuals who’ve seen this performance have held this in the highest regard of being one of MJ’s most perfect and greatest if not the greatest performance he’s ever done it’s flawless everything you ever need is within this performance here and what separates MJ from everyone else is he was born into being a mega superstar/performer he was doing it since the tender age of 7 and MJ always let it be known the stage is where he’s thee most comfortable his exact quote is “I’m totally at home on the stage. That’s where I live. That’s where I was born. That’s where I’m safe.” ~ MJ)
Mike was 30 yrs old when he performed this at Wembley. He has done a lot of concerts, but to me this was his best one. You gotta check out Billie Jean from this concert too. But if you really wanna hear Mike sing, the Ed Sullivan Show back in 1969. Mike along with his brothers did a song that Smokey Robinson wrote called Whose Loving You. That's when the world found out that he could sing, and was gonna be a problem for years to come. The greatest of all time
A request, Micahel Jackson - Give in to me, not to spoil anything but this one is definitely on the rocker side, with a special famous guitarsist guest and thats all I'll say lol
We almost sometimes forget what an incredible singer he is. You should start at the beginning = Jackson Five at the Ed Sullivan show - "Who's loving you"
Michael Jackson was unique , brilliant, captivating, he held you in the palm of his hand and did it to all age groups . Having seen him live the excitement from everyone once he performed so many classic songs
This song was actually written by Steve Porcaro of the band Toto. Toto is an amazing band made up of session musicians, most of whom worked with Michael on Thriller. The original lyrics were a bit different then the are on Michael's version. If you guys haven't checked out TOTO, you will. Africa, Rosanna and Tow the Line are all Classics
What possessed you to comment on my post and tell me what had "better not be" my motivation? Come on man, grow up a bit. I think Michael Jackson was an immensely talented NUTCASE freak. If you don't, that's ok, not gonna fall out with you over it. It's all good - we just disagree, no prob!!
This song always made me feel sad for MJ...He just wanted to be normal and he could 'Never" go out in public and never lead a normal life!! One of my favorite songs by him!
I laugh when people try to make comparisons between Michael and Elvis. They both were the most handsome star-studded performers ever, and all the ladies in their perspective eras and beyond showered both men with love and admiration only fit for a 'King'.
So fun fact: Michael Jackson choreographs each of his songs, writes his songs, and composes his music. If yall are interested in how he puts on such an awesome show, check out "This is It," this is a movie that captures MJ creativity that comes to life on Stage. It really is worth thecheckinf out if you haven't already. Great reaction!
One of my favorite things about the Nas sample is Michael told Nas that he’d let him use the sample for free under the condition that he didn’t cuss in the song. Nas kept his word.
8:06 Michael used long poses to catch his breath in order to sing and dance full out simultaneously. Also for musicians you can actually time the counts to see exactly how long he will hold the pose. Friggin Incredible 💯 I'd personally love to see you all react to Michael Jackson 'Billy Jean Victory Tour in Toronto 1984'. Hands down his best performance of Billy Jean💯 EDIT: Nope. The debut of Billy Jean at Motown 25 because it was unrehearsed. Nobody knew what he was gonna do not even Michael himself. But the other one is my immediate favorite right after.
Jon Mayer did a beautiful guitar version of this song with him just playing the song and MJ background singers singing during MJ memorial service you all should check out
I agree 💯 they always make a big deal about Elvis the man couldn't write a song They only compare them because Elvis fans are jealous of Michael Jackson big time
I am Black American, and I love Michael Jackson. But Elvis is in a category of his own. Michael Jackson would have told you that. And Elvis's voice was pure gold.
Hey guys!! Just wanted to show you some love and support. I’ve been with you guys for some time now. All the way from Montana!! Love your reactions! I’m a huge ACDC fan. But lover of all things Rock. Also am a huge MJ fan. I’m dying for anyone to do a reaction to ACDC’s RIDE ON, and DOWN PAYMENT BLUES. Both Bonn Scott songs. But both awesome blues songs, with Angus doing his thing. But will enjoy all you out out!! Chris Stone Billings Montana!💙🤗
long-time subscriber, i identify with what u said about the phrase 'the king'!! On an Elvis news story on Newsnation recently, I said the king of pop was married to Elvis' daughter off the cuff, oh my god, since then I got a barrage of Elvis nuts saying he's the king why are you saying that? Then Michael Jackson nuts afterwards chipped in saying why would you allow them to say Elvis was king!!! i was like , i dont care whos king they are both great. Loved the channel for ages guys peace and love to you both X
I think you're both fantastic! I love how you tackle so many different genres of music and comedy. Please do the Smooth Criminal music video. It's 10 minutes, but amazing.
I attended this very concert you are reacting too. 3 rows from the front stage and first time seeing him perform live. The Bad tour will forever stand out as one of his best tours in history. What i did notice was that his vocals to this song varied a lot and in my opinion his best performance of Human Nature during the Bad Tour was the 1997 Yokohama concert in Japan. RIP MJ ❤
And smooth criminal followed ❤love mj I witnessed a living legend in 88... My cousin was overcome with so much emotion on the way home in tears on the tube he was the greatest on stage there was so much love at the concert ❤I can't describe how beautiful a show he put on that day in August 😮people fainted all over the place and with Kim wilde backing him up it was just a wonderful time to be alive and see this man do his stuff ❤love mj
Like me, you are a Nas fan. Love Nas. With MJ, probably my top 2 artists of all time. It aint hard to tell is indeed sampling Human Nature. Both MJ and Nas was signed to Sony Colombia at that time, so Nas was allowed to sample Human Nature for illmatic. "Nas will prevail", the demo to it aint hard to tell, has a more lush version of Human Nature sampled. You probably know it, but check it out if not. From one Nas fan to another - much love
You need to listen Michael Jackson's "Bad" song wwhere he asked the guitar God Eddie Van Halen to write and perform the guitar solo in the song and Eddie did it for absolutely pay but as a favor for Quincy Jones. And check out Weird Al's parody of the song in his song "FAT". Both are absolutely incredible!!
Lol also, please react to MJ in Captain EO (3D movie that used to play at Disneyland)! It was so good & his song at the end of it called We are here to change the world/Another part of me. Those songs just get me hyped & bring a smile to my face!
The Thriller album is great from beginning to end. There are some treasures that do not have music videos and have never been performed live. I suggest listening to The Girl is Mine featuring Paul McCartney, Lady in My Life, PYT, and Baby Be Mine. I wish some of these wouldn't made the set list for the Bad tour since he was on his own. He could've taken out some of the Jacksons songs in exchange for these.
They're both mutually "Kings". Elvis is known as The King of Rock n Roll. Michael is known as The King of Pop. Rock n Roll has been extinct since the late 70s. A simpler form of Rock (without the Roll) took over in the 80s, and Pop became the more prominent genre.
