@Super3259 i tried waiting for it and it just takes too long! whats the problem, can you tell me?!
@XxMo0nWaLkxX To be fair, Michael did laugh a bit when he said that. There was a rapport between the two of them before the documentary aired and THEN all became clear.

Now thanks to Michael, I know what im doing wrong.. i`m getting in the way of the music, i have to let it write itself. /,,
What a great talent MJ was! What a loss for the world… The King of Pop loved his fans so much that he got on camera (after admitting to be shy and embarrassed) and DANCED HIS ASS OFF! He tore it up freestyle. I’ve seen this whole interview several times. Brashir and his crew manipulated the whole sha-bam, from his distasteful and ugly line of questioning, down to the lighting, making Mike look sick And cuckoo. Shame on you, Brashir. RIP MJ
Thanks to A.R.Rahman for posting this to ur facebook wall… or else I mi8 hav missed it….

Martin Bashir dislike the video
God, he’s so honest, innocent, he’s very kind
It is big loss
who was tht fuckin’ cameraman.? was nly showing mikaeel’s face, othr thn his legs.!!
_|_ U Martin Bashir..!!
Treat evil person with kindnes. Love you MJ.
That Martin Bashir not a god person at all.
I remember seeing this interview in 2003, Martin Bashir was trying to bring down Michael.
@Super3259 Do you write your songs in capital letters too…?
WHAT MARTIN BASHIR DON’T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND IS, THERE IS NO SET WAY ON WRITING A SONG. I AM A SONGWRITER MYSELF. AS A SONGWRITER, YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN YOU WILL COME UP WITH ONE AND HOW YOU ARE GOING TO WRITE IT OUT. MICHAEL MADE SOME GOOD POINTS. ONE HE SAID, ” LET THE MUSIC COME TO YOU.” WHEN I COME UP WITH A SONG, MOST OF THE TIME THE MELODY AND LYRICS COME WITH IT. THEY WON’T BE THE, WHAT I CALL THE CONCRETE LYRICS, BUT THEY WILL BE ABOUT THE SUJECT I WILL BE TALKING ABOUT.
This is how you “kill them with kindness” thanks for the lesson Michael!
@frozencactus101 Bashir was a representative of the haters in the public. He never acknowledges the genius of Jackson.
that interviewer is an a……….hole
Aww he was shy ! But it was good to see him so alive and dancing like he was in his 20s !!
This was a nice conversation–insightful and good for a person just beginning to think about marketing music for any type of broadcast.
