Michael Jackson: Live In Bucharest - The Dangerous Tour [DVD]

I am a new MJ fan who have only now started to grasp his genious. When I first watched this concert, I could not comprehend that I had never made the effort to go and see MJ's extraordinary concerts and now it is too late. Therefore this is a real keep-sake. Some readers found that this DVD can be watched sitting in an armchair. Never! MJ and his music and dancing are so dynamic and intense that one starts dancing oneself! Someone lamented that there are too many sections where only audience or screaming girls are filmed. This is partly true, but there is the forward wind button. My favourites are the 'Smooth Criminal' with its superb choreography made especially for the scene and the 'I Just Can't Stop Loving You'. The show's tracks move fluently from high beat, energetic tracks such as 'Jam' and 'Wanna Be Startin Something' to soft ballads. This concert testifies how MJ really knows how to take his audience. It is just amazing. I have watched this DVD at least 6 times already and I am sure will never tire of it. I recommend this DVD wholehartedly to everyone who wishes to see and listen to Michael Jackson at his best - performing as only he could.

I have been so pleased with my purchase. I am a big fan of the bad tour dvd and was a bit worried after seeing reviews about lots of crowd footage. This is true at the beginning of this - quite why they think we want to see up the nose of some sweaty fan when the beautiful-heaven-sent-Michael is on the stage-but this does ease off after a few songs. (I know how the fans are reacting as I would react that way myself had I been lucky enough to see him live-although I’d probably have fainted as soon as he appeared on stage...worth seeing FYI). Michael’s performance is amazing as always. I really think he blossomed during the Dangerous era, (there are not many men who can carry off a sparkly jacket and a gold leotard-but he does it) and the way he is on stage is mesmerising. (Quite how Siedah Garrett remains composed is beyond me.....) The man doesn’t put on a concert, he puts on a show. A must for your collection. You will not be disappointed

Well this in an awesome concert if you want a bit of fun and to watch MJ strut his stuff. The only issues I have are primarily with his tendency to mime. Now I know when you dance as he does it would sound very ropey if he simultaneously had to sing but I feel that he makes some poor choices when, for example, he sings 'Wanna Be Startin Somethin' where he sounds out of breath dancing and singing but he then mimes 'Heal the World' and 'Man in the Mirror' at the end. Whether or not he is such a perfectionist he wished it to sound perfect I don't know. It just seems that he can sing on songs like 'I Just Can't Stop Loving You' (despite the duet partner being the worst singer ever) and Human Nature but he has to mime 'Man in the Mirror' and 'Heal the World' which seem to be singable bearing in mind his dancing is at a minimum in these ballads. None the less it really shows you how popular he was, and still is, and the euphoria of the fans and the balls to stand in a statuesque position for so long shows his gravitas and pulling power with everyday people. Dangerous is a great album and this concert resembles him at what was probably the happiest point, and highest, of his career as after this period he received his first child abuse allegations in 1993 and although HIStory was as outstanding as anything else, he had developed issues with the press which is what most of the HIStory material consequently deals with. A great concert for MJ and non-MJ fans. You get used to the miming although you can tell at times when he consistently and rather annoyingly covers his mouth when he has a free hand. He does sing roughly 50% of the concert and the dancing and presence is all there throughout. The best performances on this DVD are definately the rarely heard 'Off the Wall' track: Workin' Day and Night, and the opening track to the 'Dangerous' album: Jam.

I am not a huge Fan of MJ but with his passing purchased the Live DVD of his Dangerous Tour. From the opening sequence I was blown away. Michael Jackson is a great Choreographer, a Fine interpreter of a Song and possesses Dancing skills that surely rank him along side the best viz: Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire. The sequence involving 'I can't stop loving you' and 'She's out of my life' was a emotional performance, and boy does he rock 'Thriller' 'Beat it' and 'Black and White' showcase this so well. If you ignore the shots of fainting Fans the Chemistry between Performer and Audience was Spine tingling. The Production was first class throughout and the Backing Band and Dancers were awesomely good. I rate this DVD with 5 Stars......but it deserves 100 Stars. Michael you are the Greatest Showman of them all. R.I.P.

brilliant artist the best. i saw this "live in bucharest - the dangerous tour" on tv, either the bbc one or itv. i enjoyed it so much..... so i thought ive seen it so i get a copy to keep as i never recorded it. BIG MISTAKE! THE SOUND WAS SO POOR ... THE BACKING MUSIC AND SINGING WERE ON TWO DIFFERENT LEVELS WITH FANS OVER HIS SINGING TOO. NO SOUND ENGENEERS ON THIS DVD TO BALANCE IT OUT. ITS RUBBISH. ITS LIKE THEY HAD A POOR RAW RECORDING THEY SOLD ON DVD. BUT ON TV THE SOUND WAS EDITED AND BALANCED TO BE PEFECT. THE VIDEO WAS THE SAME, ONLY THE SOUND WAS A HUGE DIFFERANCE- BUT THATS WHY I BOUGHT IT - I THOUGHT I HURD AND SAW THIS DVD ON TV. DONT BUY! I AM A FAN - I THOWN MINE IN THE BIN- UPSETS ME TO HEAR THIS.

This is one hell of a performance by MJ and others. His vocals are easily heard and the choreography is brilliant. He worked his socks off with the following performances for just over two hours! . Jam . Wanna Be Startin' Somethin . Human Nature . Smooth Criminal . I Just Can't Stop Loving You . She's Out Of My Life . I Want You Back/The Love You Save . I'll Be There . Thriller . Billie Jean . Working Day and Night . Beat It . Will You Be There . Black or White . Heal the World . Man In The Mirror The camera work for this performance was excellent so I cannot for the life of me think why there were negative remarks about this together with the sound quality. I am beginning to wonder whether the DVDs purchased by some, were filmed by amateurs and not at the original concert on October 1st 1992. Totally recommend this DVD.

As a avid fan, I have some 12 Jacko DVDs, from concerts to music videos. This DVD is by far the most incredible in my collection and really shows just how amazing the king of pop is when he's live on stage. I have this concert 3 times, due to buying the Ultimate Collection and another from a fansite. If you have the Ultimate Collection disc set, then you don't need to spend money on this as it is exactly the same. But for diehard fans, this is another to add to your collection. Right from the start, you know this is going to be special. From the moment Jacko, leaps out of the stage and stands there with the massive crowd cheering..... well it send shivers down my spine each time I watch it. Great dancing, great sets, great songs.... it won't disappoint. Jacko at his best!

It’s great because it’s Michael Jackson, but I fault the seller; the CD booklet wasn't included—they just sent the CD on its own.

Concerto spaziale, coinvolgente per l'intera durata, ottime le coreografie ed eccezionali e, a mio parere, ancor più emozionanti le canzoni ascoltate nella versione live. Per i veri fan ma anche per coloro che hanno semplicemente voglia di conoscere un po' di più lo straordinario artista che era Michael. Davvero ottima la qualità video, sicuramente restaurata. Dvd in condizioni perfette con spedizione puntualissima.

J'ai eu la chance de voir Michael Jackson a werchter en 1992 ,avec ce concert live in Bucarest ,j'ai l'impression de revivre le concert que j'ai vu il y a 27 ans .concert sublime ,je le conseille !

Llego en perfecto estado, me encanta
