In my opinion he was the greatest of all times!!!
jujin918 He was
@@georgia7438 He IS, duh
Not an opinion Hunty. It's a FACT
@@TheBCNetork1 big facts.
Same
We see a human being that is extremely exhausted, but is still entertaining us non stop, without stopping. I love him so much! But he seriously should have stopped the performance, he was killing himself absolutely. God bless Michael for all his hard work.
I think this is part of the reason he decided to lip sync on the history tour the next month.
***** It was around 2 months not that big of a difference.
***** Well this was a free concert so I doubt that he was paid Millions of dollars and let's not forget that this was now a middle aged Michael Jackson who's body forced him to lip sync more compared to his prime a decade ago.
***** The Royal Brunei show was a free concert, I'm not saying he wasn't paid for it but I doubt it was millions because the show was free.
***** What other kind of free is there? Of course he got paid for it but I doubt it was millions of dollars.
There will never ever be another Michael Jackson
King of Pop is no one
Forever I love you miss you
My high school is already gonna have one at the end of the month during a rally

This is probably the last time he sang Billie Jean 100% live. And I can understand that, after seeing him being exhausted like that.
he had problems with his vocal cords on the history tour or something like that.
+MrDerOutsider and he was on his 1,000 show
I don't think he was exhausted, he sweated because of the hot temperature. Don't forget Brunei have an humid equatorial climate. In fact, he sweats all long the concert. And on the brunei's history concert it's the same thing. He has less make-up too for this concert. Because if he was really tired, he wouldn't have done these technical moves at moments he has to sing in the same time. And he would have sing less during the chorus for example.
The T-10 It was the last time he sang it live
Cohen Hamilton What about This is it?
4:30 so powerful!!!!
I know this is nothing new but tbh, I think we're really lucky to have this performance in Pro footage and HD quality. It's basically HIStory Tour Billie Jean but with fully live vocals. Truly a one-of-a kind. And I absolutely love how he sang the high "me" in "people always told me" (something which he never did in the Dangerous Tour).
@P Sung Finally someone noticed and appreciated that! He never really did the high "me" in any of the tours: Victory, Bad or Dangerous (History doesn't even count with the playback).
In my opinion, the best part of this song is the pre-chorus and that high note there is the bread and butter of the ascent towards the chorus. His dancing and performing had always been on point during his live Billie Jean, but I was always missing that high "me" in "people always told me".
When you look at previous tours and previous performances, you start to see a pattern of the tempo getting lower and lower as time passed on most of the songs (more obvious in WBSS), but I feel like for some reason, Billie Jean was one of the more refined performances as he dropped the tempo. It feels like his moves are more precise, cleaner and overall classier.
That's why I think this might simply be MJ's BEST EVER live performance of Billie Jean (vocals + dancing combined).

MJ never gets old
His ad libs were the best. Just another part of his performances that made him so special.
love this live version because he actually sings live
He mostly sang this song live.

For the Billie Jean last performance live, this is truly epic. Vocals is so clean and dance is very smooth. Maybe so much better than the later History tour performances. MJ Forever and ever
this wasn't his last live 1999 and 2001 was his last performance
@@Team_Moonlightshe meant this is his last LIVE performance, the last time he sang live without playback.
@AlexanderMJJ ah right I see
6:09 Loving this One Hand Style
and the two Spins instead of one before the Moonwalk in the Enddance
Looks like he is on fire
its after the 1995 mtv performance so yeah he was on fire
Funfact: this concert was fully sponsored by His Majesty of brunei darusalam ($27mil) for his 50th birthday celebration, which means it's a free concert.
0:47 HIS EXPRESSION (he liked in bad era!)
Exactly. It changes the make-up a lot, including what is used to make it. Spreading vitiligo did a lot too. Here you can see that he's just older and that's it. It's fun to watch how the movie for "Stranger In Moscow" was made. There, Michael "loses" his make-up and there is a big difference in how he looks in the "video" and after being completely soaked.
singing and dancing in one of the hottest countries around who cares if his voice was a little out of tune that's without all the audio technology we have today he did way better than any of today's performers by far
Ronald Barnes indeed, this would of been hard. Heat, fatigue , illness, and constant dancing... and still hit the notes he did.

You can see that he is pretty tired here. The vocals were still pretty good
@BugiBow#60 yes. Tour prep for his HIStory Tour were pretty much going along nicely and Jackson had enough time to conserve his voice for that night. By far his last great concert.
Yeah because billie Jean is normally one of the last songs of the concert
@@gamer-_-games3555 Normally Billie Jean is in the middle of the set list. The only time he did it near the end was the Victory Tour.
Mike Drölf it was also near the end during bad tour
But i like this bille jean live compare with another live history..
*_4:39_**_ He sounds exactly like the studio version because he never used autotune in his life_*
Cause autotune wasn't a thing just yet
Autotune isn’t the devil loool it’s bad if ppl use it to smooth out their voice or give a false impression that they can actually sing, but every musical artist uses it to perfect how the song sounds, we think the world of Michael but he’d hate himself if a song went out w a key or a tune or a chord in the wrong place instead of auto tuning it
MJJ4K oh no lol I know that if you reply to a comment all the other replies get a notif but I was responding to OP, you’re right though
Thomas he used playback quite often not auto tune. Dancing while singing is extremely difficult which is why he did it
Thomas it’s called playback
I am in love with his vocals in this performance. You can tell that he’s feeling every word.
2:55 I love his energy here
This is the best billie jean Performance ever performed live
Yep
@@darkbiddy511 better than the History Tour Ones
@@thekingofpopproductions4877 yes, it's like a transition from Dangerous to History... Long end dance with robot moves like in History tour combined with Dangerous Tour's 100% live.
And what can I say, the result is amazing
@@darkbiddy511 the best of both tour
@@thekingofpopproductions4877 yep
What a star he was...I miss Micheal Jackson
One of the best live version of Billie Jean by far by MJ.
I’ve always loved it when he said “DOGGONE LOVER”. He says it a lot during this performance. It sounds so damn cool.
06:43 Gratest side moonwalk ever !!!
Looking at the moonwalk from front and back is what you see is him moving just backwards, the SIDE view however looks like he IS sliding which my case brings the crowd in awe
Smooth
Amazing performance! There will never be anyone that can match MJ's talent.
He definitely has the best dance no moves: best beat : best out fits. Definitely the most beautiful voice ever
0:17 I Love That Sound Of The Bass Or What Ever That Low Instrument Is
Piano, you can tune ir ro make ir sound lile that
Yes, Bass
The bass sound comes from the band's bassist synthesizer, billie jean's bass is already programmed on it, so he presses a key and the bass line starts playing, but he has to repeat the key press for the line to restart.
@@Lucas_Alencar1 kinda makes sense but how do you know?
@@Lucas_Alencar1yea his name is Freddie Washington btw
wtf!!!!! That dude just got HIS fedora and he is just cool with it?????? I'd be freaking the f out!!!!
That's my reaction. Like normally I see fans killing each other to get that hat.
????????l
Valentina P I think the Royal family of Brunei were there and had to behave because this show was for the king of Brunei.........I think.
I know the guy who caught the hat!
Really? What did he do with it? Was it autographed by MJ? I remember seeing some hats allegedly from HIStory Tour sold on eBay and they were autographed on the back side.
4:50 I love when he says “dawg gone luva” 😂
he just rocked it at chorus lines with the perfect amount contrast in ever bit of word. just amazing man no words!!!
*_The best HIStory era Performance_*
Also, Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' live in Copenhagen '97
ro ziko *_Yep_*
To every singer in this earth ..get lost.. this is MJ God of music 😏
Despite sweating his posterior off, he looks really handsome here!
I agree, Michael looks very handsome here, even when he's sweating so much. Less makeup and you can immediately see how handsome he was/ is.
This is one of the best live performances of Billie Jean IMO.
in my country too 😱
I disagree
@M7keSonic I get how huge Mowtown 25 was. I know how much that music and that brand has inspired others. The first ever moonwalk. I get it, but I like this performance because although he was much older by this point and started getting sick, he still gave it his all and sang live and not lipsync.
@@PaulJackson729 I'm not talking about Motown 25, despite that being a better performance than this one, I was talking about many other Billie Jean performances being better than Royal Brunei, heck, the best Billie Jean performances happen to take place after this show
@M7keSonic Most of those he was lip syncing and not singing live. I know for some that doesn't matter quite as much but it matters to me.
How the hell can he turn even without moving his feet? He is the god of dance and music
junior valenxia basically he's spinning on 1 point.
its easy, i can do it
junior valenxia what do u mean turn without moving his feet?
junior valenxia oh never mind I see it now..easy.
Just turn your body
One thing I love about the royal brunei concert is how calm and formal the audience is, like when the guy in the seat catches Michael's hat at 7:30 , they don't all surround him and try grabbing the hat themselves or from him, they just look and start clapping for him once he picks it up.
Oh, and the guy in the audience putting it on and tipping it was amazing too.
Me encanta Michael Jackson el mejor de todos los tiempos!!!!
Mj his bast bille jeen ever
Obvio el mejor del mundo por siempre
@@pablothegamer7975 Yesss
This is one of my Fav Billie Jean Performance! EPIC! you know he's tired, but he's just so in sync with the music with his whole being! and his ad libs.. LEGEND!👑.. l miss him still..😢💔RIP King 13 years gone..
Without a doubt the best Bille Jean performance on Michael Jacksons HIStory World Tour vocally.
This isn't part of the HIStory Tour, and if it was, it wouldn't be the best
This concert was practically a History tour concert but without all the playback and stiff moonwalks, he seems tired here though, but that makes sense since it's a very hot country and there was a lot of smoke on the stage making it hard to breathe, especially when it's a 2 hour long concert full of live singing and dancing, even with all of that MJ was still capable of performing amazingly here, incredible vocals and dance moves
edit: yeah no my opinion on this performance has drastically changed
La ultima vez que MJ canto 100% en vivo Billie Jean...
One of the last times Billie Jean was ever sung live
In my opinion one of the best.
This Is It 2009

Rei da música! 💕💕💕
This was Michael's best moonwalk of all his tours, and anyone who says otherwise is willing to debate it.
He's got a lot of great ones, but good lord this one is CLEAN.
Edit: Seoul 1999's after the robot is INSANE though. Not sure this one beats that. It's like his upper body's on a gimbal, just completely still, and his feet are gliding so smoothly and cleanly. It's a marvel of human movement. Also, it's a rare left to right moonwalk.

Smokin' hot. 🔥
I love the ending dance.
This is one of the only performances where the hat wasn't torn apart.

Everything sings exactly well.
Simply the greatest ever in the world

These are the best Billie Jean vocals from the 90s imo
his vocals in the Dangerous tour concerts were better than this one, but considering his condition in this time, its still reallty good

I putted this on my ipad at max volume and i felt like in that Concert
Great performance, no playback, no autotune
Omg ive never seen this one yet it looks and sounds so unique and cool!!!!
Michael jackson is the best in world
Indeed, in the History tour, Biliie jean was lip-syncking , but not here in Brunei , it is so so abvious , just listen , it sounds different than the other Billie Jean performances ! Here is 100% live, it's so abvious !
+Gabriel Istrate Even though he sounded older than his previous tours, I didn't think he sounded that bad at this concert. I'd rather hear him sing live like this than her him lip sync
+Paul8820. It didn't sound bad at all ( i never said that ). In fact , even here is 100 % live , it is even better than any Billie Jean performances from the Dangerous tour !

This was the last time he ever sung this live (excluding This is It) Probably sang the best here as well. HIStory warm up here, saying goodbye to Dangerous, the best tour ✌
He just oozes presence. Truly one of the best.
He’s the one who can sing & perform that’s why is king of all times
i really hope if he was Steel alive
The whole idea of him lip syncing the entire tour due to illness is kinda outrageous if you ask me. Even when he was sick, he still sang a lot of the songs live, and by the time he was well again, he didn't sing any of the other songs live. Throughout the years, he sang less and less, and it's simply because he got older, and there is nothing wrong with that at all, especially when he was able to dance like a professional and sing at the same time.
***** But at his age singing high notes isn't the easiest thing.... You are not alone is a high pitch song.
***** He had laryngitis during SOME PARTS of the tour, but in my opinion I believe it was more like an OCD sorta thing he had with perfection. A playback voice sounds more "perfect". He only sung live the things that he didn't bother re-recording eg WBSS and J5 Medley. The only thing he re-recorded was Janet's verses in Scream.
Frank Lin The thing is, people don't want to admit that as he got older, his singing got worse when he performed live. Just look at the Brunei concert in 1996 just before the History tour.. He seemed so fatigued and his singing wasn't great at all.
Josh Ochs this is the royal Brunei concert in 96 and he sounded great to me, he didn't sound as good as he used to and seemed like he was fatigued but he still sounded good. I would much rather hear a Live Michael that doesn't sound perfect then a playback voice. I loved Michaels live voice including his imperfections.
83jdc1 You misunderstand me. I totally agree with you on preferring to hear him sing live no matter what, it makes the performance so much more magical. I'm just trying to defend him lip syncing, simply because most of his performances in the earlier days did not feature him lip syncing unless if it was an encore performance or it was really hard song to sing and dance to at the same time, like Smooth Criminal.
Hes so tired. At 1:25 he doesnt even do the kick hes ao exhausted..
He already kicked before that part so he doesn't usually kick at that part
This is such an interesting performance of Billie Jean. It’s the first time and only time he performs the song with fully live vocals closer to the original pace of the song.
And he was singing it under the playback to sync his mouth with the song.
4:30 That Scream😆😏😏😏
😂😂😂
Now imagine what he was expelling in bed
Con audífonos se escucha súper bien
Michael Jackson never die
been looking for a live version where he actually was singing! thanks for this vid! Doing billie jean along with his other songs would be extremely tiring, understand why he was skipping some lines. RIP!
Every Billie Jean performance up until this one was live.
every billie jean concert performance from 1984's victory tour up until THIS CONCERT(Royal Brunei) in 1996 was live vocals, btw this video was the LAST time he performed live singing for this song/

By the way, the audioquality is breathtaking. Sounds natural and pure on my Sennheiser 363D in 5.1 Dolby. First time I hear it in "real" sorround. The new editing really gets the best out of that show. Do you have some uncompressed audioexamples of this concert? I don't want the whole show, just some examples to get a feel of it if I was one of the visitors. The new videoediting doesn't seem to be that better, the close ups are a bit more crisp. Great JOB dude!
PLEASE MAKE A FULL HFR VERSION OF THIS CONCERT ! (obviously without the headphones logo)
WE ALL NEED THIS !

Hola soy Mexicano de Tabasco del municipio de Nacajuca, me gusta esta cancion con el moonwalk
Everyone saying here that he sounded bad but this def in my top 5 billie jean concerts
Imo he sounded way better than the 1993 concerts in the dangerous tour and its still better than playback
I don't see anyone saying he sounded bad, just seen some guys saying he's exhausted and sweating. His vocals were fantastic imo
especially 2:46-2:50
