I always like hearing ideas from people of different music video concepts they'd like to see from MJ or live tour preformances. So i want ya'll to get creative! Really detailed with this.
so the big question is, if u were to design a concert preformance or music video for any of the songs that DON'T have music videos or that he HASN'T preformed live, how would you do it?
For me something I'd always envisioned was a live version of Morphine.
THis may sound stupid but here it goes lol
On the back drop theres a big screen ....looks like sound waves but their really colorful. THis is for that intro.
Then MJ comes through the back drop, full out energy. I sayyy he's got long hair (scream style), BLack Or White outfit (black pants, undershirt, white over top ). You got electric guitars just goin. Lots of pyro, lots of lights. full out energy. Lots of head banging. MJ's usual 'hard rock' moves....jumping in the wind vents :lol:, ripping his shirt, running around the stage, jumping up and down, interacting with the guitarist, Putting his face all in the camera, air guitaring, Grabbing his crotch...:lol: You know the usual. lol
I imagine when he does the "trust in me, trust in me" parts, at least at one point, he would stop, stand to the side in front of the stage, and do the 'remember the time' finger movement. When he points, twists it around slowly, and move his finger in a circle while bringing it down :lol: That's the best i can describe it lol.
That part. :lol:
Then at the end of the first 2 verses everything just SHUTS down. I think it should be not at the real place where the song usually shuts down, but it should be jarring. Like RIGHT in the middle of a guitar lick...so that it's really surprising. As if the power was shut off or something. So everything is dark for a second and silent. Then one spot light comes on, and there's mj in front of a microphone stand. The lighting should hit...i can't really describe it the way i see it in my head...but not so it's a regular spot light but, i dunno, i want it to be a soft, almost blue light....with a bit of fog in it...and a bit of wind blowing.
I imagine this to be really intimate and emotional of course. MJ just stands their for a good minute with his eyes closed not moving. Then when ever he's ready just start..."relax, this won't hurt you..." not opening his eyes until he says the second line. When he does open his eyes, i see him looking , performing with his eyes, rather than with his body almost. No robotic moves he just stands still. It should almost look a bit creepy, cuz i see his eyes shifting a lot and nothing else. Maybe a tilt or turn of his head here and there. THen the second part of that, "he's tried..." he start adding more and more movements, gradually. Maybe reaching for the microphone. And I imagine at this point MJ is near tears or something so it'll get more and more intense as this part goes on. I just see this as really emotional and almost disturbing/creepy/intimate moment.
Then the lights them down again. And whenever MJ's ready, "OH!" ....Lights fire up again, pyro goes of and its madness again. Bursting with energy. And it ends off that way.
Haha so thats me, what about you? LOL
