Thanks Ms.I, I’ve seen that clip in some fanvids before, but I now know where it’s from.
Anyway time Jon dances I’m a happy panda.

Hope you all managed to save a copy of the vid before it was taken down; I know I love it (but then, it always makes me happy when the Comedy Central boys salute the "King of Pop").

hihi from the cuts and decoding filter I used I’m pretty sure this is the clip I ripped and uploaded on youtube a few hours after the show.
It took Viacom only a day to get it removed but it had over 16k views by then and all, over a hundred, comments were positive. A first for youtube ;-)

Nice to see it resurface :D

Thank you thank you thank you for posting this. It’s been going through my head all day, and I’ve been back to watch it about five times. Can’t believe it hasn’t been pulled yet!

Thank you for squee-ing for another squee-ing fangirl. I concur:)I believe my fangirliness reached another level after this song.

YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY! :)

Thank you so MUCH! I could watch this clip over and over and over again … and now I will, because I just saved it and will now have it forEVAH! :)

Wow, I am usually not such a squee-ing fangirl (fangirl, but usually not quite so squeeing – 35yr old professional here!) but I just love this duet so much, everything about it – Stephen’s singing, John’s lovely singing and playing, John’s facial expressions (those *eyes*!), and of course the banter at the end. (love the premise too – fighting over lady liberty/america – cute, clever, and in character!)

I was one of the people who requested it Thursday night, after watching vids online of thriller, beat it, billie jean, etc. I was never a huge Michael Jackson fan and it’s not really my kind of music, but damn some of it is really brilliant (and his dancing was amazing); and as my age suggests, “Thriller” was in the background of my childhood. It’s neat that lots of others thought of this clip too, and cool that someone else included it in their tribute to MJ. Thanks!

“I will kick your prom king ass!”
LMAO!

This was a beautiful tribute. I grew up watching and listening to the Jackson 5. Even though Michael just got too weird for me in recent years, he was still a greatly talented man .

You know, I wonder if Stephen will re-broadcast it on Monday’s show, in MJ’s memory. The news was breaking around the time of Thursday’s taping.

Of course, the snarky Viacom lawyers will probably still keep it off the TDS site. :(
