Stevie Wonder performance @ Michael Jackson memorial service

[ColdHeartBreaker]

I believe this deserves a thread of it's own, no?

I feel he may have simply outclassed many of the living musicians in-attendance that day..

Enjoy/Discuss.

I think Jermaine's Smile was the best

I stopped watching it when he started talking about God.

Michael Jackson's brother doing the song "Smile" was the best one. Almost brought me to tears.

I really loved Usher's performance and Jermaine's.

[Black Sabbath]

I love the way Stevie sways all of the time.

But, I'll be honest, I laughed a little when he said "This is a moment that I wished that I didn't live to see come."

On topic: I surprisingly didn't cry during this performance (I was close). I did when Jermaine sang though.

So there was a Gospel choir and a Pastor who officiated the ceremony, but you decided to stop watching when Stevie mentioned God. Fuckwit.

It was a joke numbnuts. He mentions God about 2 seconds into his speech so turning off the video then would have completely missed the song. The song being the whole point of the video and this thread.

BS, I think for the part where your supposed to laugh, your supposed to highlight "see".

You are correct. I just did what I did to see if anyone would catch it.
