take note of his hairstyle...his hair at the top of his head is quite high up...Karen Faye (his makeup and hair stylist) later in a court testimony and also in a rebuttal clip to the bashir special explained that during all these touring and headshaking and dancing like a maniac he continously had surgeries on his scalp as an aftermath from his pepsi burn... and at some point during the Dangerous tour they used baloons underneath his scar tissue to stretch his skin which was so tight bc of the scared tissue. The procedure was very painful and caused the pain meds dependency which he addressed in the strip search statement.

He never stopped singing the Jackson Five on his tours and crediting his brothers.

Michaels child mannerisms and bubbly self from back in the days always shines through when he does the J5 medley.💜💜💜💜

Golden suit + that black jacket = 🔥🎉😻❤️💕

Just wait, because when he performed this in 2001, it was even better. Possibly my favorite performance. He even outdid himself with the Billie Jean performance in 2001. It’s like the older he got, the more he amazed me with his legendary performances.

Micheal doesn’t normally wear a jacket during “I’ll be there” in the dangerous tour 1992 but it’s so cool. As for me it’s rare

Vocals here were still great... and more importantly mostly live. The History tour had alot more playback due to his age/health and energy levels. The BAD tour will forever be Michael Jacksons apex! From vocals to performance ability and energy he was at his peak. If you watch any tour montages, the majority of the footage is from BAD.... and for good reason

Yes I agree, thank God he decided to go on his own in his career and we had Michael Jackson!!!!!

Looking forward to the next song. 🙌🏻🧟

I really appreciate you man for recognizing the greatness of Dangerous Tour vocals. Only a few people appreciate this Tour's vocals; the vast majority prefer Bad Tour vocals to this Tour and utterly overlook how excellent Michael's vocals are on this Tour. Yes, the Bad Tour vocals are without a doubt the best, but I personally like the gritty and raw intensity of Dangerous Tour.

They speed up songs in concerts to get thru them faster so they can go on with the show bc it’s already gonna be like 2 hours so they try to get thru them as quick as possible

I feel that also, he for like ofa better wording, " He bloomed '

I love your reactions to Michael's videos, they are very contagious. 👏🏻🤩

Lol your reaction when Joseph appeared on the scream 😂😂😂 we all feel the same!

I love this Medley here in Bucharest, one of my favorites, Michael always moves me when he sings it. 😢🤩❤️

awwww love this michaels adorable and i just wanna squish his cheeks lmao As for vocal progression it's fascinating i definitely like his later stuff in terms of songs because his voice is deeper and grittier and it just really suits him (Bad, Dangerous, History & Blood on the Dance Floor are my fave albums because of this) vs his older stuff that i still love but he sounds so much younger and it doesn't have as much UMPH if you get me? Obviously it's a style/genre switch too but i just think he aged well in that respect. As for performance for me i much preferred his Bad Tour Era, i feel like he just had so much more energy to give on stage, it was almost inhuman and he was so happy and his voice (like on human nature or rock with you) was just STUNNING it was a good mix of extremely powerful no holds barred live vocals and constant movement were as he got older he got more controlled both in his voice and in his dance which isn't a bad thing because it helped him to maintain over long periods of time and multiple shows with a better technique especially as he aged and it got far more difficult to keep up the same pace but to me he sounded more hoarse and inconsistent as he got into the 90's, more specific in his movements and less spontaneous/energetic. It makes for great dance routines though as you'll see on his History Tour you'll see by that point he's truly mastered dance beyond comprehension and is SO PRECISE it's INSANE like you have ALOT to look forward to with his dancing that's for sure. Obvs by that point in time he was really suffering vocally from exhaustion/over use/laryngitis/lupus so it's unfair to comment on his vocal ability when he had such big health struggles but on the bits you do hear live it's not great which is sad but when you look at This is it in 2009 he was sounding freshhhh so we know he NEVER EVER lost any of his magic and i know he really wanted to do more fully live at that point in time it's just a shame it went how it did. Anyways great vid as always!!

Nice reaction Seph. I love these Jackson 5 medley and do you know how many times Michael performed these medley?? It's crazy!!! And you are right. People who grew up during the Jackson 5 era, love these songs better. I was born in 1993 and grew up mostly listening to the dangerous album. So it's my favourite album. I think people like specific songs coz they have attached some memorable times with them. It's just personal.

Great to go through this medley again with you. Great reaction vid!

Personally, I love the gritty, raw intense and imperfectly perfect vocals during this tour. During the Bad Tour he was younger and had more control of his vocals. But, pound for pound, I prefer his vocals on this tour.

More gritty vocals and he seems out of breath more but the dancing is much better imo

It was Michael's own choice to speed up songs when doing them live. I assume he made the faster to be more dancable for him.

He sang I'll Be There especially beautifully ❤

btw, i do hope you will watch the Motown 25 performance - 1st of all a History was made there, but i think his I'll Be There performance there is perfect!

I'd love to see you react to Jackson American Dream movie that takes you from MJ's birth to the start of the victory tour. Maybe for MJ's Birthday (August 29)

I'm with you, again, brother. The sped up live versions of these bum me out. And I don't buy, as other commenters have suggested, that the purpose was to shorten the duration in order to fit more songs into the show. Michael does plenty of dramatic breaks and interludes that extend the performances. These could easily be cut or trimmed if the intention was to fit in more material. I think Michael just wanted to inject more energy and thought that speeding up the songs was the way to accomplish that. It's an interesting thought exercise, as you mentioned, to imagine if Michael had never left the Jackson 5. I wonder if their mass appeal would have eventually been what Michael's solo career became. I love when you sing briefly here. Only wished it was at normal speed. Btw, that shirt adjustment you did at the very beginning made my heart skip a beat.

and his voice is most def better here than Bad, and i am NOT dissing Bad, but like i said this show in particular is my ALL time favorite, i can never get tired of it

For me, his voice matured to perfection there. Unfortunately, it didn't get any better after that. However, the subsequent History album was another masterpiece and (on the album) he was back on top form.

3:10 that’s the James brown footwork of course :)

Se marchó demasiado pronto 😭😭

😂😂❤👍

it was Michael who decided to speed up the songs - for lives, you need to make some songs faster, to create more energy

G

4:23 You really hate joe jackson lol. Seph HATES Joseph jackson
