This Is It - 03-13-2010, 06:23 PM


Well since I've found you people to talk "at" - Im curious of what you thought of Michael Jackson. Just watched This Is It, I think he was a really talented performer. He sure could freakin dance! Kinda grew up watchin him as a child, he was only a few years older than I am. Grew out of his music a bit in the rockin 80's, but watchin this show brought back alot of old good memories. Pretty good lookin show too on HD. Guess I just wanted to talk about how talented this man was. RIP Michael. Thanks for listening

In keeping with my Mom's admonition not to say anything about a person if I couldn't say anything good, yeah he was a good dancer......Ben

Rudolf Nureyev was a great dancer.

I agree with you.

I also grew up listening to his music - and aside from all the freaking 'wierdness' that the guy seemed to attract/put off - on 'just' the merits of his singing/dancing - he was definitely the 'King'.

Like it or not....but his music influenced generations.

My 2.5 year old and I were at Wal-mart the other night and this was on, and she was just enthralled....I haven't seen it...so I may have to put it on my Netflix Q - we are all music junkies around here...;-)

Donna it was really good. I don't guess it was finished because of what happened last year, it's just like a continual rehearsal of this new show, I just thought it was real good. It's definitely worth a look :)

I was ok with him back in the days of "Thriller" and stuff he did during that time.

When he started with the freaking 'weirdness', as Donna put it, is when I stopped listening and watching.
