I've seen on other video comments, people arguing back and forth that it was actually Jason singing, others adamant that it was Michael. After reading through a lot of back and forth and playing that scene again, I concluded it was Jason. But no one, NO ONE in those arguments who felt it was Jason, knew he sung it live. I didn't know. Now I'm blown away.
