I thought it was uncanny how much she dances like him. The only real difference I see is her smaller frame as a female, but the dancing and mannerisms themselves are eerily spot on IMO.
@@kittenonacloud1012 Michael's movements have often more "stops". He stops the moves for a small tick. Leona moves more smoothly. Both styles look great.
I feel as if their not hating on her it's just because she is being compared to the greatest dancer ever MICHAEL JACKSON but she did an amazing impersonation a little sloppy here and there but her turns are amazing very close to Michael's turns
I'm a HUGE MJ fan, and as such i can personally say, she moves exactly the same and i couldn't fathom how long learning those moves would take. Great job, Leona.
Once in a while Michael really comes through, which I find awesome. She lives Michael but dances her own style. I love it. :-) Besides that: As a real MJ Fan we know every single step of this choreography, and we know, how difficult this is to dance. Great job, great feeling, loveable to watch. :-) Thank you!
It’s really great... but three things I find lacking with most MJ dance-impressions are: 1.) MJ’s ‘aggressive’ attitude when dancing. 2.) Feeling the music instead of going through the memorised movements. 3.) And really snapping to those those moves - especially the arm movements.
WOW ,that spin !! i havent seen any dancers nail it like you did ! there is something about you... the way you feel the music not just trying to copy the moves ! that was awesome,keep practicing and you should make more MJ dance videos !
Dude, I day dream about dancing like that I wish that I could dance like that I am at a loss of words about how amazing you are keep up the good work MJ would be so happy that you are imitating his work so well. RIP Micheal Jackson you are loved ❤️
She is amazing! And yes, she IS FEELING IT, it's just that she isn't MJ and she isn't trying to be MJ and that is perfectly fine! She doesn't lack the feeling because she is doing it in her own way and the reason she is doing "just memorized" movements, well that is because she is only putting a show for these people and trying to make her performance good and without mistakes and empty phases, she isn't a 20+year old dancer or musician to know when to improvise and to go with the flow. Just that. SHE IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING AND THE VERY BEST MJ DANCER I HAVE EVER SEEN! And I've seen a lot :) I got all emotional watching this masterpiece :D
no one can move even close to jackson. this lady did a good job, but obviously jackson was a perfectionist. not even his choreographer can move like him, doing the same dance move. MJ KING OF MUSIC FOREVER
I love how people criticize videos like this, and 99% can't even conceive how much hard work goes into it. I enjoyed it. looks like she worked really hard.
I saw ur video today the 1st time. I loved ur dance.. Then I saw all ur videos. Ur are supernatural fantastic. I wish I could see ur dance in a big theater screen or big stage performance. After Maichel Jackson I will remember Leona Jackson always. God bless MJ soul. And God bless you too. I wish you good luck for ur future. Keep on dancing like MJ.
Lady, if you’re ready this, this is one of my favorite videos, for at least three reasons: 1. The dancing is excellent, unbelievable excellent, and both impressive and fun to watch. 2. We get to see the reaction of that dude in the front row, as he’s taking it all in. First is like ‘okay,’ but there comes a point where the music and the dancing suddenly steps up a notch, and he adjusts his position, starts tapping the foot, claps at the phenomenal spin, etc. 3. The music is great.
This video reminds me just how talented that man was. He not only danced and sang the song, he composed it, wrote the lyrics, and probably either solely choreographed it or contributed heavily to it, with a huge say in the mini-movie video production that this video. Truly one the greatest entertainers this world has ever known. It's not easy to mimic the king and she did a fine job, but you can feel that something is missing from her dance... feeling and precision. MJ was so crisp, sharp, and convincing with his movement, really quite remarkable.
Love this live performance from Leona! It is an absolute thrill to watch it and plus it reminds me again and again of what an impact Michael had on the world in terms of dancing. There are great, mesmerising dancers from around the world who make us awe struck with there technical and dancing skills but MJ was complete one-off. To make even non-dancers to get up and shake a leg or two.... that's simply more than just extraordinary talent!
Amazing performance. I found myself appreciating Michael Jackson even more after seeing this. I think it's your attention to detail that makes this choreography shine. I know it's been a long time, but I hope you go back dancing. Breathtaking talent!
Q: For all those who criticizing can u all do half of what she did?....Its so easy to criticize someone for trying instead encourage and show appreciation for effort..... good job @leonajackson keep doing ur thing
Can you please make more videos. I am not exagurating but i think you are the best dancer i have seen on TH-cam. Thank you for making this beautiful piece. I cant wait for more☺
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍I luv this MJ'dance, wish I was young,I would had learnt it. Sometimes, I feel, I am born in wrong era, wish I would be in MJ'time,in his group. As, childhood, I would luv dancing. Was my passion.Now,doing Political work, lord just brought me 2other side/serious field.
I respect the fact that she is showing love and respect to a Black, iconic, legendary performer named Michael Joseph Jackson. Sloppy with some of the movement, but nobody is like Mike. A for effort and B on the performance. I was entertained!
Any Micheal Jackson fan would appreciate the dedication it takes perfecting his moves. Thanks for sharing this video!
Completely agree.
He's one of the best performer I have seen so far
@@bobbukenya5806 she
😂😂😂😂😂👎🏾
Ye exactly she
People say she is exactly like MJ. But no. She does the same moves but with her own style. That doesn't mean it's any worse, but it's different.

When people in the comments can't even dance but feel the need to hate on such a talented young lady
Well I can dance but I didn’t Say a thing about her. She has perfect moves
I feel as if their not hating on her it's just because she is being compared to the greatest dancer ever MICHAEL JACKSON but she did an amazing impersonation a little sloppy here and there but her turns are amazing very close to Michael's turns
Toxiclegend 1026 agree
GreenGirlEats exactly! I really like her dance performance I think it’s super cool!❤️🤩
She killed it!! I don't see any hate in the comments I think you're creating that in your head
I'm a HUGE MJ fan, and as such i can personally say, she moves exactly the same and i couldn't fathom how long learning those moves would take. Great job, Leona.

Exactly the same? I mean nah she has her own style to the moves
@@giannaluva65 Still, it's pretty close. I'm glad there are people who still honour his legacy
not the same , but she is dope. I like her
3:43 One of the smoothest things I've ever seen
Sooooooo smoooooth
1:56 , that was actually one of the best spins I have ever seen.
Thank you for such a wonderful comment!
Your subscribing made my day (or week)!;)
I am glad you are a Moonwalker.
me encanto esta coreografia tuya leona jackson.
Alex Blanco Dancing Hiiii!!!😍

give this girl a big stage and dancers and big budget then you will see what she does. magical job.
Yeah
Olivia Edwards I- same???
@@oliviajames6037 You're probably bi
@@vinnidavinci3932 Did the deleted comment say that they have a lil crush on her? Cause same 😂
@@roonilwazlib5402 Yes that comment said exactly that how did you know? Are you bi too?😂
That was beautiful. Arguably, MJ’s most intricately choreographed dance routine and she absolutely nailed it. Well done.
*_4:43_**_ boy was like " dad, where can I get a girl like this? "_*
Na lie!!
Lol
Hahah
Was more like : « wait, where’s the lean gone ? »
If Micheal was alive he be so proud of what his fans are doing for him
Watching you literally brings me to tears man! R.I.P. MJ! We miss you man...
I grew up watching Mike it hurts to know he isn't here anymore I never met him that wud have been my wish
I feel you bro i would also have loved to met him he waa so kinfd loving and humble
It’s really great... but three things I find lacking with most MJ dance-impressions are:
1.) MJ’s ‘aggressive’ attitude when dancing.
2.) Feeling the music instead of going through the memorised movements.

Totally agree.
I noticed that as well
But amazing nonetheless
Excellent job but 100% correct
Totally agree,but we need to understand that maybe only Michael can do this
This brought tears to my eyes more than once… Thank You.
Wow this woman is incredible Jamaica 🇯🇲 subscribed to this chanel
That first spin was ON POINT!! YOU nailed it!!!!!!💣👏👏👏👏👏👏💥
That spin OMG!!
I like that too.
On behalf of all female MJ fans who are learning or wanting to dance like Mike, you are a pioneer!!
D-did you just say "Mike"
AveRay yeah?
doesn’t matter if you’re female or male, you can dance like MJ if you truly apply yourself
WOW ,that spin !! i havent seen any dancers nail it like you did ! there is something about you... the way you feel the music not just trying to copy the moves ! that was awesome,keep practicing and you should make more MJ dance videos !
I adore this. You deserve a stage,fans and only dance group. I respect you
*queen*
you never really realize how many moves MJ did in his MVs
You guys are the legends...Michael must be proud
He's alive
Don't start me with theries please.
What’s a therie?
In our hearts ❤️
noentiendo su pidhyfyudiwpornodhujdkgkuw

Believe me trying to dance like MJ is beyond hard and anyone who tries and comes close, gets my respect. You go girl!
I cannot even master one move, but you're dancing very much like MJ. Very smooth and crisp moves
Dude, I day dream about dancing like that I wish that I could dance like that I am at a loss of words about how amazing you are keep up the good work MJ would be so happy that you are imitating his work so well.
RIP Micheal Jackson you are loved ❤️
It was one the best Mj dance performance i’ve ever seen! Amazing! Good moves!
