LOVE YOU MICHAEL
first of all, let me just make it clear that I’m a huge fan and supporter of michael jackson, but this DVD was not worth my money, because I already have it taped from when it aired on CBS. This DVD cut out a little bit of parts that were shown on CBS, but not on this. And there is no Wanna Be Starting Something video on this, I don’t know what one of the previous reviewers is talking about. By the way, the special is completely amazing, the version on CBS anyways, I really needed to watch something like this during this hard time in michael’s life. The only thing missing was more intense footage from the Dangerous, HIStory and Invincible eras, those eras were equally as good as the previous 3. Michael Jackson is a legend and will continue making great music in the future I hope.
Being a pretty big Michael Jackson fan, I felt pretty ripped off after watching this DVD. Though the special is OK, it doesn’t hold a candle to any of Michael’s other DVDs, and is overall a pretty pointless release. The program is too short and makes no effort to portray Michael’s career in detail. All you get are video clips, some concert footage (often with spliced studio audio), and an array of celebrities dumping praise upon the King of Pop. Sometimes their commentary seems almost fake, like they’re just waiting for their compensation check and could care less about the subject at hand. Plus, do most fans really NEED to know how great Michael is?
For me, the only redeeming parts of this DVD were the live clips from the Triumph Tour (‘Don’t Stop’ and ‘Ben’) and the Bad 1988 Tour (‘Bad’). But they were really just too short to savor.
So, if you collect Michael Jackson stuff, buy this DVD. Also, if you’re on the line about being a fan, check this special out. Let Beyonce, Missy Elliot, Dick Clark, et al convince you to become one. But if you’re already a die-hard MJ freak, stay away, far away.
remember seeing this same special on CBS but couldn’t get to my vcr to tape it. I’m glad to own the dvd though because I don’t have to worry about commercials. I am a very big Michael Jackson fan. From Off the wall to now, my love is hear to stay. This dvd takes a look at what he has done through out his career. There are guest appearances by, “Beyonce, Quincy Jones, Dick Clark, & others.” If you are not a Michael Jackson fan, you might be one after you see this dvd. I have been a Michael Jackson fan from the very beginning of his solo career. I loved to see the video for “One more chance.” I wish they would play that on television more offten.
