Reviews Customer Reviews for Michael Jackson The One      GIVE IN TO ME      Rating:      YOU JUST HAVE TO GIVE IN TO MJ. YOU'LL SEE THINGS THAT YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE IN THIS VIDEO. I WANNO ROCK WITH YOU MICHAEL!!!     Customer Reviews for Michael Jackson The One Cd      Not really worth it.      Rating:      Being a pretty big Michael Jackson fan, I felt pretty ripped off after watching this DVD. Though the special is OK, it doesn't hold a candle to any of Michael's other DVDs, and is overall a pretty pointless release. The program is too short and makes no effort to portray Michael's career in detail. All you get are video clips, some concert footage (often with spliced studio audio), and an array of celebrities dumping praise upon the King of Pop. Sometimes their commentary seems almost fake, like they're just waiting for their compensation check and could care less about the subject at hand. Plus, do most fans really NEED to know how great Michael is? For me, the only redeeming parts of this DVD were the live clips from the Triumph Tour ('Don't Stop' and 'Ben') and the Bad 1988 Tour ('Bad'). But they were really just too short to savor. So, if you collect Michael Jackson stuff, buy this DVD. Also, if you're on the line about being a fan, check this special out. Let Beyonce, Missy Elliot, Dick Clark, et al convince you to become one. But if you're already a die-hard MJ freak, stay away, far away. Editorial Reviews for Michael Jackson The One Audio Cd      Amazon.com      Michael Jackson: The One is a persuasive summary of the Gloved One's career highlights. Jackson appears only in old clips, but the case for his status as an innovative and dominant artist in the 1980s and early '90s is made by an impressive array of witnesses: Beyonce Knowles, Isaac Hayes, Dick Clark, Wyclef Jean, Missy Elliot, and others. Clark recalls meeting child-star Michael and realizing he had a natural drive to be in charge, underscored by Jackson's decision to push "Ben" (technically a ballad sung to a rat from the movie Ben) as a single. Quincy Jones talks about partnering with Jackson despite objections by the Epic record label; his tale of a superhuman push to mix Thriller in 24 hours is fascinating. Also discussed is Jackson's pivotal appearance on the Motown 25 TV special, and his penchant for musical and stylish re-invention on Bad and subsequent albums and tours. --Tom Keogh
