Some people just have "it" - it's a timing thing, a special, sharply accented toss of the hair or incredible physical dexterity on a turn as Brett Nichols did ..... or when singing it's effortless and mesmerising because it catches something unique & almost unattainable and seamlessly professional - you're able to relax dreamily into that performance. You have no doubt that you'd pay money to see or hear it again.
Spooky really......
He's smooth alright. Now let's see what he can do with the talent post-MJ impersonation. Good luck to him!
