Billie Jean its one of Michael's greatest songs if not his greatest it appeared on the setlist on each tour from Victory up to and including This Is It. But which tour has the best live version of Billie Jean I don't just mean in terms of Michaels vocals but the complete arrangement of the song, I personally think its better on the Bad Tour Second Leg Which version do you think is best



 
Bad Tour second leg. It just sounds the best to me. Dangerous Tour Billie Jean is great performance from Michael but I don't really like how the song sounds on Bucharest dvd.
 
This Is It would have been the best, see those sick popping waving? Holy cow...

WOO.
 
Dangerous Tour, LIVE Vocals and impeccable dancing, truly legendary...
 
If Only Michael Didn't Passed Away. Billie Jean In The This Is It Tour Would Be Amazing
 
Bad Tour BJ. Ofcourse the Dangerous version starts spectacular, and the HIStory tour plays up the theatrical aspects, but I prefer Bad Tour because it was focused on the song and performance itself. No further ornaments required.
 
I'd go with the Dangerous Tour performance - best opening and dancing, in my opinion. His singing on the Bad Tour might be slightly better, but I like the instrumentation on the Dangerous Tour a bit more. I also prefer the fact that it is not played as fast as on the Bad Tour (and that it is a bit faster than the HIStory Tour version). From the performances that we have, I like the one in Cologne the most.

Of course Motown 25 will always be special. Gotta mention the MJ & Friends in Korea concert as well, where the ending of the performance is absolutely brilliant. Finally, I always enjoyed the abbreviated version at the Superbowl a lot.
 
really? u mean it 's fake? they mix the audio wt video?!!

It was live at the rehearsals but they added demo version vocals to the movie. Some parts are live thought but most are not. Watch This Is It trailer and Billie Jean tv spot. That is the real Billie Jean.
 
Dangerous and Bad are tied i reckon.
But my personal fav is the 30th anniversary :) i fell in love with Mike after it his performance is epic!!
 
yah .. BJ on Dangerous .. at any point int the tour is on point!
 
BJ at Royal Brunei Concert is amazing!
Good compromise between sang and dance :)

I havent seen enough Bad Tour performances. I'm sure Billie Jean 89 is awesome
 
History tour:D
especially last of song. MJ's vocal Percussion ;)
I love it
