He is larger than life

The “THIS IS IT” rehearsal video is amazing!
An adventure, showing people excerpts of Mj's life that we had never seen before.

The large crowd that walked into Cineplex seemed anxious, like they were going to watch a live concert. The silence was deafening, no phone’s going off as they usually do, and everyone’s eyes were glued to the screen.

Michael’s passion is such an inspiration. The manner with which he swerved his body and wiggled his toes seemed like music was literally flowing through his veins. His rehearsals were like the actual presentation, he poured out his life. He was very articulate as to how every note should sound, when he wanted a loud bang and when he wanted the music to simmer. As though he’d seen the concert before.

It was great to see Jackson unveiled, a side to him that had always been shielded. To listen to him talk, rebuke and guide his crew in a cool manner. The words “I love you” and “God bless you” flowed steadily from his lips.

His talent was truly out of this world. He wrote his own songs, created his signature dance moves. How is it that my 5 year old son who had never heard of MJ before his death can with ease, Identify his songs as they play on the radio? That just blows my mind.

His director and the team he worked with were in awe of him, how is that possible after several sleepless nights, grueling rehearsals and clashes which come with the package of any serious production?

I loved the show, I loved the amazing young talent, I loved seeing Jackson uncut.

There were occasional jeers of pity (Ugandan style), by the end, a wave of satisfaction swept through the crowd as they had drunk deeply and their thirst was quenched. Like at last funeral rites, they were happy to finally lay him to rest, to close the door and say goodbye.
