I once guessed what MJ 50-year-old would look like when he returned to the stage after many years. I didn't know until I watched "This Is It" that he exceeded all expectations and all his imagination!
That's just the rehearsal! This is already the case just by watching it on the screen! What if there is a formal performance, if you can go to the scene in person? Will be crazy.
Its key word:
perfection.
Knowing that MJ is a perfectionist, he did not expect that his requirements for this concert were so strict.
In fact, what does it matter? No matter what kind of performance it is, this is MJ's "Farewell Performance". This title is enough. I'm afraid that no one will join in? Tickets for the 50 games have been sold out. Are you afraid that you can't make any money? Is it necessary to make yourself so tired?
I thought it would be just an ordinary retrospective concert, and its concept would be higher than its essence. It would be difficult to reproduce the glory of MJ back then... Wrong! After watching "This Is It", I realized that it is not a reappearance, but a transcendence.
In fact, this suspicion seems to come mainly from the mentality of guessing MJ-a man and a half, a man who has not been on stage for 10 years, a man who has been constantly misunderstood, entangled in lawsuits, and destroyed by so-called scandals. It is impossible to have no shadow in the heart, and it is impossible not to be guilty and timid.
Forget that MJ is not an ordinary person, he is a king, he is a god. Although Qianfan has gone through the vicissitudes of life, "I am still me! I can do it! I am like this!"-This is the confidence of Wang Heshen, the confidence of pursuing perfection.
Physical strength is
50 years old. And so thin. I thought he would mainly sing, dance, and make two gestures in some passages, and put on a pose. wrong again.
The complete large-scale dance is not inferior to those dancers whose average age may be only half of his. Compared with those young dancers, in addition to dancing, he also has to sing, but he also has to deal with so many details such as accompaniment, chorus, process of enlightenment, and so on. He is the leader so he must do everything himself. But his energy seemed so full. When singing slowly, his voice is as clear and beautiful as before, and when dancing, his posture is as smart and wild as before, without a trace of oldness, not a trace of powerlessness.
Sadness
In fact, the film did not show the slightest sensation from beginning to end, and did not express the slightest sorrow for MJ's sudden death. It was just a faithful record and was told completely in a calm lens. However, whenever you see MJ fully engaged on the stage, you are faced with a dark and empty venue, and you can't help but feel sad. The swinging arm forest, the endless waves of sound, the resonance and admiration of thousands of people... That scene was no longer there, and that scene was about to come again, but he could not wait for that day after all! The darkness and emptiness was like a vast universe, and he was the lonely singer in it, and he sang and walked, and finally left.
Before leaving, he said, I love you, and I want to give you an unprecedented experience.
The last note came to an abrupt end, and under the shining blue follow-up light, MJ opened his arms like a sculpture.
That ended. Only keep love and dreams forever.
