You know, I have listened to MJ critics for years, I'm a fan from the 60's , but because everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion, I will let the haters, hate. He was from the beginning, a stunning performer, and remained so until the end. I am so glad we have footage like this to keep those of us who appreciate his magic, and dedication to the art forms of music and dance. I, unlike some of the other's, loved the footage of the fans. It's always great to see the real reactions of the folks who were there live. The electricity of being in the moment, adds to the footage. You can't stage that. I love to see the fans in the US, going wild for a change, we always see footage of other countries. He belonged to the world, but he came from us. We can be proud, he was, and will continue to be an American Icon. I love you Michael, I have since 1969. Thank you, and I love you Jackson 5; for all the memories of my youth, thank you Michael for the music as we grew into adults, I am forever a fan!!!
I don't understand the raving reviews. While watching this concert I cringed a lot. Michael covering his mouth all the time because he was lip syncing in his solo parts. Then he 'sang' the last minute of the songs live, as if that fooled anyone. (well, reading the other reviews, apparently it did)
Then Man in the Mirror gets totally messed over by Usher and Luther. Terrible execution of a beautiful song, I hated it. The whole while I got the feeling Michael didn't really had fun, almost as if he wasn't there. Maybe he didn't feel well. He seemed embarrassed about the lip syncing also or afraid. I think I saw him smile once and look at the audience twice or something.
I enjoyed the Jackson 5 part but Michael's solo's just made me sad and I did not care for all the other messy artists.

The Michael Jackson: 30th Anniversary Celebration was a historic tv event. The music and dancing were amazing. My favorite parts of the show were with Usher and N'Sync. But the best part had to be Mike solo spot. When he came out with suit case and just started to dance my my mouth dropped. My only complaint is that Mike didn't have the bands 112, Jagged Edge or New Edition there. But all in all it was a great show. I can't wait for the DVD.
If anyone know's of where i could get this DVD please let me know,i would love 2 own this DVD. It's got way too many fond memories of the King himself, to actually see him perform with his brothers for the very last time no words can describe what that prob felt like for them it was just a very priceless moment. And to see all those many many famous people and to also see the late Luther, this is truly a gift that will always be cherished. To just watch the way he dances and sings he's truly one of a kind,he has opened up so many doors for so many people. It's still so very hard to grasp the concept that he's actually gone, but i know that his memories and what he has accomplished in this world will always live for ever in our hearts. he will forever be missed and loved so much. He will forever be the King Of Pop!
This is definately a brilliant concert which sees Michael performing again with the Jacksons and his own solo songs. I must say that the duet with Britney on The Way You Make Me Feel is brilliant along with the performance of Billie Jean. I got it on tape and I can't stop watching it, it is AWESOME. MICHAEL JACKSON TRULY IS THE KING OF MUSIC.
