I saw This is it on Thursday. I was a little hesitant to see this movie, because I knew how much of a bittersweet moment it would be. Yes, we get to see a great performer in action, but at the same time, we will never get to see the final product. But I saw it, and I loved it. It was a wonderful way to cap off a bad day I had.
Memorable Points
The spider from the Thriller sequence (and hearing the Threatened instrumental!). I want that spider so bad.
Orianthi (Michael: “I want to hear WAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!”)
Him singing Speechless. My jaw dropped when I heard it. I later relayed to mom that he was singing songs from Invincible (she loves that album).
The chemistry between him and Judith Hill during I Just Can’t Stop Loving You.
Just hearing his singing voice instead of the lip sync-a-thon that was the HIStory Tour.
This was not exploitation, this was celebration of a complex person who gave so much to a world that takes exceptional people for granted, then act shocked when they forever leave us.
Most of all, I’m glad to see a man who was happy and seemed to be living, not existing.

(RIP) Aaliyah Are You That Somebody? Remember when this song was all over the place?
One in a Million “Love it babe, love it babe, love it babe…”
Sarah McLachlan Building a Mystery “You’re so beautiful, a beautiful fucked up man…”
Sweet Surrender (The opening tune and chorus is perfect.)
Tori Amos God (The background vocal during “Why you always when the wind blows?” always gets me.)

I’ve been watching these videos over and over on youtube for the past week. What is it about them that I like so much? Is it the quiet sensuality of each song? Or is it the strength? All three of them approach love, relationships, and adultery in very strong ways.
Meredith Brooks What Would Happen
Toni Braxton You’re Makin’ Me High
Sheryl Crow My Favorite Mistake

I finally saw the Phantom of the Opera live with Tim Martin Gleason as the Phantom. It was even more beautiful than I expected.
Hugh Panaro and John Owen Jones, my two favorite phantoms. Hugh was the sexy, dirty, and playful Phantom (See his version of Music of the Night? Total tease) I mean, that smug look he has when after pulling Christine in for a kiss and faking her out. Especially when he moves his hands down his body while he sings “Softly, deftly, music shall caress you, hear it, feel it, secretly possess you,” Simply dirty.
John was the sublime Phantom. During his version of Music of the Night, his “Soar” leaves me speechless. In my opinion, there is no middle ground when you sing that part, you either fail or succeed, and John succeeds.
Yes, and Tim Martin Gleason succeeded in that part. Trista Moldovan was very good too.

Whenever I do a belly dance for friends, all the guys would ask me afterwards, “Um, can guys *looks around* bellydance?”
Yes, they can.
A dancer from Turkey
