[集體回憶] 米高積遜死前演唱會綵排片段曝光

Michael Jackson - "This Is It" Rehearsal




Michael Jackson's last dance


流行天王米高積遜逝世前兩天最後一次為演唱會綵排的片段首次公開,片中米高雖然身段消瘦,但動作俐落,不似病重。

這段影片由演唱會主辦單位AEG Live提供,影片是在6月23日、即米高突然離世之前兩天攝錄的。當中可見米高積遜為倫敦演唱會綵排的情況,地點在洛杉磯地區的大型體育館斯台普斯中心(Staples Center)。

在這段一分多鐘的短片當中,米高積遜排練的歌曲是《They Don't Really Care About Us》。片段顯示他在舞台上活力十足,邊唱邊跳,重現天王架勢,風采不減當年,一點病態也沒有,令到連日來指他死前瘦得像骷髏骨、質疑他無法承擔演唱會的傳聞不攻自破。

在片段中所見,已屆50歲的米高身型明顯消瘦,跳起舞時當然沒有20、30歲時那麼勁,但活力一點兒也不比身邊的年輕舞蹈員遜色。在舞蹈藝員襯托下,他一邊跳著,一邊演唱《They Don't Really Care About Us》,並與台上人員說笑。

米高身穿黑色長褲、深色外套,內裏穿上紅色襯衣,紮著頭髮的米高積遜,頭上戴著無線米高峰演唱,與由八名男性伴舞組成的舞群一起在台上表演。開始時,他與多名舞蹈藝員起舞,接著走到一名主音結他手前面,隨著強勁的節奏瘋狂地跳,並向台下豎起右手食指,有型有款。

當日,他一口氣排練了一個半小時,深夜才結束,演唱會主辦單位保留了合共一百小時米高排練的高清片段,今次公開的只有一分鐘左右。其他片段,打算日後以紀錄片、特輯或大碟等形式發售。

《They Don't Really Care About Us》一曲引入hip hop元素,是米高其中一首最具爭議性的作品之一。今次演唱此曲,米高與舞蹈藝員配以步操式的舞步,唱了數句之後,米高還故意掀開了上衣,露出裏面的紅色襯衣。

當天有份參加綵排、負責替米高拍照的攝影師馬蘇爾接受《紐約郵報》訪問時透露,米高的狀態很好,回復昔日的光采。

馬蘇爾稱:「當他在台上進行綵排時,我感到激動萬分,充滿魔力的米高積遜回來了。我感受到腎上腺素湧上來的那種感覺,像我第一次拍攝他跳moonwalk舞蹈時一樣。每唱完一首歌後,他都大笑,與舞蹈員和導演說笑,我從來未見過他這樣開心。」

原訂倫敦的演唱會已經花了大約二千五百萬美元籌備相信該些產品,加上保險金可以抵銷演唱會成本開支。

They Don't Care About Us

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, aggravation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
Bang bang, shot dead
Everybody's gone mad

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us

Beat me, hate me
You can never break me
Will me, thrill me
You can never kill me
Jew me, sue me
Everybody do me
Kick me, kick me
Don't you black or white me

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us

Tell me what has become of my life
I have a wife and two children who love me
I am the victim of police brutality, now
I'm tired of bein' the victim of hate
You're rapin' me of my pride
Oh, for God's sake
I look to heaven to fulfill its prophecy...
Set me free

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
trepidation, speculation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
black man, black male
Throw your brother in jail

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us

Tell me what has become of my rights
Am I invisible because you ignore me?
Your proclamation promised me free liberty, now
I'm tired of bein' the victim of shame
They're throwing me in a class with a bad name
I can't believe this is the land from which I came
You know I do really hate to say it
The government don't wanna see
But if Roosevelt was livin'
He wouldn't let this be, no, no

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, speculation
Everybody litigation
Beat me, bash me
You can never trash me
Hit me, kick me
You can never get me

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us

Some things in life they just don't wanna see
But if Martin Luther was livin'
He wouldn't let this be

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, segregation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
Kick me, strike me
Don't you wrong or right me

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
