Here I am watching this at 1.41 am with the biggest smile on my face and a tear in my eye. What a great guy Bruce was, his love for Michael Jackson is evident here and in every video. It seems to bring him comfort when someone dances like Michael, this is the second video I have seen this happen, and where he hugs them, it's as though he feels he is hugging Michael. I can see why they were so close, with love, L. Ó. V. É., SOMETHING THEY SHARED. they are both together again and making great music and I find some sort of comfort in that. Thankyou 🙏🎶

ASK!

[@ChurchOfVenus]

question: why is this video mixed so terribly if these guys are supposed to teach mixing?

[@b00ts4ndc4ts]

I don't think it was made to watch on a phone and if you're an engineer, you will always have a bit of headroom to play with.

[@aleksik4028]

These people want to record music and I assume want to be great at it, cos' the'yre here admiring Swedien and his work with Jackson. And some of these kids have no glue who Benny Goodman is or John Lee Hooker. Yes I know they aren't current, or on the charts now but still. Should have some (alot) knowledge on music history besides Thriller. Geez....... =)
