We already have this "conversation" here, but i can´t found the topic... :roll: i found so strange this part too... btw, i love this part of the movie! but yesterday i was watching one music channel and i saw a video from a latin singer and something got my atention: they are at studio recording and the video was filmed there, like an inside look of the recording studio... and all the band members and the singer have this thing in the ears. i will make my point now, we know for sure that michael never use this ears thing at live performances, and why use it in rehearsals? this was a recording sesion (i think) because this latin singer never use this ear thing at live either...
Has there been a discussion here about the J5 bit in TII where MJ doesn't sing because he's 'adjusting to the situation' of being unable to hear because it feels like a fist in his ear? This part bugs me, it seemed odd and a lot of time was spent on it with his conversation with Kenny. But I don't want to go over it all again if it's already been dissected!
It's perfectly normal to use in-ears during gigs, especially in closed venues. In case no in-ears are used, you will see monitors on the stage in front of each musician.I'm not sure whether Mike never used in-ears during live performances, he can very well have been using them as he always had a transmitter attached to his waist band.The thing that has always bothered me about this particular scene in TII is that Mike calls them inner-ears, while every musician knows they are called in-ears.

Damage to the human earQuoteInner ear traumaThere are two principal damage mechanisms to the inner ear in industrialized society, and both injure hair cells. The first is exposure to elevated sound levels (noise trauma), and the second is exposure to drugs and other substances (ototoxicity).QuoteInner ear: cochlea, vestibule, and semi-circular canalsThe inner ear includes both the organ of hearing (the cochlea) and a sense organ that is attuned to the effects of both gravity and motion (labyrinth or vestibular apparatus). The balance portion of the inner ear consists of three semi-circular canals and the vestibule. The inner ear is encased in the hardest bone of the body. Within this ivory hard bone, there are fluid-filled hollows. Within the cochlea are three fluid filled spaces: the tympanic canal, the vestibular canal, and the middle canal. The eighth cranial nerve comes from the brain stem to enter the inner ear. When sound strikes the ear drum, the movement is transferred to the footplate of the stapes, which presses into one of the fluid-filled ducts of the cochlea. The fluid inside this duct is moved, flowing against the receptor cells of the Organ of Corti, which fire. These stimulate the spiral ganglion, which sends information through the auditory portion of the eighth cranial nerve to the brain.Hair cells are also the receptor cells involved in balance, although the hair cells of the auditory and vestibular systems of the ear are not identical. Vestibular hair cells are stimulated by movement of fluid in the semicircular canals and the utricle and saccule. Firing of vestibular hair cells stimulates the Vestibular portion of the eighth cranial nerve.[7]...

Quote from: "*Mo*"The thing that has always bothered me about this particular scene in TII is that Mike calls them inner-ears, while every musician knows they are called in-ears.While watching TII, I never had the impression that Michael complained about the technical device only but that he was really concerned about his hearing capabilities being disturbed or in worst case harmed by the impact of the technical devices.Artists are always concerned about their instruments of expression.Singers fear for their voice and many musicians are blessed with the talent of absolute pitch which requires much ear training and comes down to an individual tonal memory.Technical devices in many cases indeed do disturb perception and expression of sounds.QuoteDamage to the human earQuoteInner ear traumaThere are two principal damage mechanisms to the inner ear in industrialized society, and both injure hair cells.

I have been looking out for them, but did not see them.Just to make sure we're talking about the same kind of monitor - I mean stage PA monitors, not to be confused with the autocue we saw in This Is It.
