It's weird you bring this up because lately I've been getting back into MJ a little bit - more so the J5 I guess, and watching his stuff on YouTube... he's an awesome performer. I remember trying to copy all his moves when I was little (like loads of people did, I'm sure) - never got
that obsessed with anyone else
When he's on stage, dancing, he's like the coolest guy in the world... even though he's so far from being the coolest guy in the world that it's not funny.
I've never gotten that "coolest guy in the world" vibe from Jon.
But to answer the OP, I don't really love either performance much. There's WAY better of both those songs.
