firstdreamwalker I like her better than Orianthi. Not putting down Orianthi. Batten nails that Van Halen solo!

discouraged audience!

Eres un suertudo.

She had a concert in small town where I live! I couldn't belive it!

Yeah, but I think playing for Micheal was an even better honor. Glad she took that opportunity as well

Mark Scherer (Battlezone) told me about Jennifer Batten as my daughter Marlo Zemartis is a fabulous violinist.

literally she is

You got that right

True. 👏

The thing with eddie is that he barely plays his solos the same way every shows, he always improvise something

IF Orianthi was a male she'd still be playing in her bedroom

Batten is on Vai and Petruccis level. There’s a reason she was an instructor at the Guitar Institute.

Bollocks. It's mainly backing tracks and the stupid audience lap it up. Batten at least plays....

@@youjoker9647 How do you know? Are you an expert? Michael told in interviews that if he cannot perform he will cancel the performance. 🤔

​@@bjishernamefunny that you said that considering the actual audio is available now 😭

D++++

There are a billion and one rumours about that solo. They range from it being one take by Van Halen to what you said. Nobody seems to know the truth.

Jay , no man no

@@AlexOjideagu2 Actually there were 2 from EVH... But Eddie forgot the first one...so he did it again...And THAT one was recorded

It dumbfounds me how she has not been more successful!!!

You're absolutely correct. Michael is singing this is U Tube.

SeerTrulth so by pop cartoon, you mean you don't think Michael was as good of a musician as Jennifer?

+clinke2007 No, I just think the vocal is slightly out of sync. Bit more than slightly actually

It's not the sync. It's the fact that his vocal sounds identical to the studio track. The backing vocals do, as well.

The answer is that it IS live towards the end!

He was a human. He needed a little rest in between songs. If you had to move like Michael non-stop throughout the concert, then of course it will take up a huge amount of energy which he needed keeping throughout the concert, especially for his dance moves and the other concerts to come. I also think that without the breaks in between it would've taken a dangerous toll on his voice later on. However, this way you get to see him dance to the best of his ability. Songs like 'The Way You Make Me Feel' are not easy songs to sing and take up a lot of energy to the point where he can barely breath. So on top of him dancing and bouncing plus focusing on the sequence of the song and dance choreography, it makes it extremely difficult. However, he did manage this in some concerts, like at Wembley in 1988 when he sang 'Billie Jean' - his breathing technique in that performance was amazing but that is an extremely difficult skill to master. This just comes to show that the lip-sync wasn't a question of covering up his voice, as everybody already knows how much of a talented singer Michael was, to the point of him sounding just as good as the album. Unlike many artists out there who just lip-sync to cover up their natural voices. I'd rather him do this in a couple of songs in order to see him dance to the best of his ability, rather than just standing and singing like most artists today. With Michael, you don't just come to hear him sing his songs, but you get a full-blown concert, which includes his dancing as one of the main aspects. Additionally, with the amount of concerts he had, he needed to save his voice, so he could be just as amazing for the next concerts to come. Most artists would struggle to last even one song if they managed to do what Michael did.

No he did it for free

Michael is michael

C'est bien ce que je disais

It is LIVE towards the end!

No it's not!

Le Garage De Jey And? What's the problem?

But it IS live towards the end!!! And he is singing! I don't get it!
