The kid, wearing the yellow shirt, is dancing in front of the house MJ grew up in.
They actually spoke with Michael, and he gave him his blessing. And of course they paid homage to so many of Michael’s songs… I love this version as always, peace, love, joy, and hope to you and yours
That actually never happened.
@65cj55 actually they sent michael this video before they released it and he gave then the ok to do it. All you gotta do is do some research and you'll see
@@toniturk5556 I seen them interviewed, that never happened, when asked about what he would think, they answered they don't care.
@@65cj55 czcams.com/video/bHztNvwA7mc/video.html an interview from Michael about this.
@@65cj55 Can you link that? I would like to see it. That goes against everything I've read about this cover and how it came to be.
They recorded this without ever wanting to release it. Their management got it to MJ and he loved it and insisted they release it. This video is an homage to MJ as a show of love and respect.
Yay! You caught bubbles and he was sitting in a silver glove chair. I love this rock cover!
This song is what originally got me into Alien Ant Farm, so good
I actually like this version better than the original
The drummer has on one white glove on, just one of many Easter eggs in video respecting MJ
also when the lead singer sits with "Bubbles", he's sitting in a giant sequin glove
There is literally almost 20 references. The lean, the drummer's glove, the werewolf lady, the sidewalk lights, the kid's mask, the Asian fans, the thriller dance, the steam vent, that movie MJ was in where the car explodes, the glove chair, bubbles, and the last few I caught might be a stretch, but the gut at the end with the lizard eye, his back tat was maybe of Elizabeth Taylor, who Michael went to the Grammys with, and the lifting up of his pants to show white socks. That's off top. I did not know that that kid I'd dancing in front of MJ's childhood home.
Yes that was a Liz Taylor tattoo and the guy wearing it is Flea from Red Hot Chilli Peppers.
Also @4:44 is a reference to the pyrotechnics accident that set Jackson's hair on fire during the making of a Pepsi in 1984.
The car exploding wasn’t that a reference to the video with Maculky Culkin 🤔🤔
only time Mike ever blessed anyone with letting them do a cover. he heard it and said "Yeah, that's fire, you guys go ahead". word is that they even shot the video before approval so he could see it was a full tribute
He did give his bedding to Weird Al to do parodies of two of his songs. He even helped to get the videos just right.
@@jeanine6328I believe they also used some of the props and set pieces from the original videos
You don't need permission to cover someone's song.
@@mikewilder6390 Pretty sure you pretty much do due to copyright.
@@mikewilder6390I thought if it was a karaoke bar, or a performance at a fair or something fine. But if you’re recording and using the music whether you change the lyrics or not you need permission to sell it and make money off it? 🤔
And all the easter eggs from MJ's videos is awesome!!!!
his chair with bubbles is also MJ's Shiny Glove!!!!! Love this cover!!!!!
3:41 took me years to realize the shiny silver chair was shaped like Michael's glove.
23 years later I only now noticed that
They also did a WHAM cover Everything She Wants 🎉
The house the kid in dancing in front of is Michael Jackson's childhood home.
I didn't realize there were palms in Gary Indiana 😊
Saw these guys play this live at the big day out festival in Melbourne 20 odd years ago! They KILLED it!🥰👍One of the best days of days EVER!!!!!🤯🤣👍
Yes, Bubbles.
Love this reaction!!
Man I forgot how much fun this video was. My high school band covered this. Like me and my buddies not the marching band lol
Man, I forgot about these guys. I just got done running through ZZ Top’s catalog. You ever try them? I’d probably start with La Grange or El Diablo. Billy Gibbons is the man, beardless Frank Beard kills on the drums and God Bless our dearly departed Dusty Hill, long may he rock the pearly gates.
the bassist for aaf was friends with mjs drummer and got mj to listen to the song and he approved them himself to do the cover... fun fact..
Love this since I’m named after MJ and this cover came when I was in high school
This song is almost constant Easter eggs for MJ. Great reaction!!
Love this version!!!
200% greatness 🙌
Total tribute to the King of Pop🎉
Tons of Easter eggs
Fun fact… that little boy danced for MJ
My favorite cover of a classic song. Thank you for catching all the MJ Easter eggs. A lot of other reaction videos say they know MJ but miss some. Especially Bubbles.
Michael him sel fapproved of this Cover
Damn forgot about this banger
You do you bro, People come hear to see your reaction and thoughts on the song, If they want to listen to the song all the way through they should go watch the original
Godsmack Drum Battle
Thanks for reacting! I grew up on MJ, and it feels sacrilegious to say but I like this version better😂 This is what covers should be, full support of the artists and straight homage❤
Great reaction! You should react to Mike's drummer, Sugarfoot...
5:20 I remember when this came out and it took me this long to recognize the hand gestures.
Great reaction and awesome messages - thanks!
The one easter egg I never caught until now is the drummer with the glove on his right hand!
This music video was one giant Michael Jackson easter egg factory. Arguably one of the best cover songs of all time.
Lmao Dig the positivity! 😁
If you like drums, 2 videos that will blow you away... Tool - Pneuma (drum cam video) & Phil Collins - In The Air Tonight (live)
Lots of Easter eggs in there! The dude at the end had a tattoo of Elizabeth Taylor on his back that gets missed a lot.
Hot damn!!Thank you, you got the references! Love it!!
This is a great cover. So many hidden gems.
If you're a drum guy, I suggest you check out Falling In Reverse "Ronald." Luke Holland, the drummer, kills it. The video is epic as well and lay attention as the video will sync with some of the music.
Took long enough, but yes, Bubbles reference. GREAT reaction!
If you already haven't, and love Drums, Please check out Van Halen. Alex rocks ❤😂🎉
You should react to Chris Cornell sing a phenomenal cover of Billie Jean. You really feel the lyrics
Awesome!
Great reaction!
You should check out Meshuggah Bleed for the worlds best drums. Its the heaviest matter known to man.
nice
This video is FULL of references and acknowledgments to MJ, who knew about and gave his blessing to this cover. I LOVE THE original - it’s my favorite of MJ, but I have to say that AAFs cover kicks it hard.
You could react to "TOP 10: MOST EFFECTIVE BRITISH ADVERTS" by HelloImAPizza, might encourage you to sort your smoke alarm out, maybe save your life.
Fun fact: You cannot smell during REM and Deep Sleep, you can't smell a fire coming. You won't see it, you won't taste it. That leaves hearing a functioning alarm, or feeling the heat when it's close enough.
Brilliant reaction as always mate, love the energy.
Ohhh if you like drums: Led Zeppelin- Dazed & Confused
that was the real bubbles. mj was there for the shooting
Bubbles died several years ago
@@rowanmayfair9249 Brother, this song came out over 20 years ago...I'm 95% sure it's not actually Bubbles though.
If your a drum guy then you definitely need to check out Drumeo and the Chad Smith video
First class!!!
Also check out, bullet in the head from rage against the machine!
If you want talented drummers you need to check out Band-Maid, Nemophila, and Love Bites
that "Gorillaz" part was a reference to Thriller that Gorillaz did in Clint Eastwood
Alien Ant Farm is fun 😊
I really wish you would check out Tool - The Pot. I think you'd like it!
He's sitting in a giant rhinestone glove, like MJs single glove
That was extremely busy. The more you watch it the more you see.
Good catching the lit sidewalk and the bubbles reference, but you missed the glove. You see the chair he's sitting on with the chimpanzee? That is clearly Michael Jackson's glove he's sitting in and of course the chimp is a reference to Michael's chimpanzee
Would you please do a reaction to Tommy Johansson's cover of Bohemian Rhapsody? Please, he has his covers on his CZcams channel. Until recently he was a guitarist for Sabaton and left to do his own thing. He sings all the parts, plays all the instruments, mixes and edits by himself. He also fronts his own band, Majestica for over 20 years.
React to AAF These days. You won't be disappointed. And ive never seen another reaction to it.
Bro you should check out domination by Pantera. The vid they did in Russia was epic! 🍻
They actually did a pretty solid job with this remake. A daring risk. This isnt an easy task
Man you gotta checkout some songs from the band Vampire Weekend. They just came out with a amazing album Only God Was Above Us. The band is combining a lot of sounds from rock to rap to jazz to orchestral stuff. They take a little bit of everything to make something really good. Id start with Classical, Capricorn, Prep School Gangsters or Mary Boone as right now those are the most popular on the album. I had heard their stuff in 2019 but hadn’t thought of them until I saw the new album put it on and loved it. You’ll really love this band if you give it a chance.
The kid wearing the mask was way ahead of his time.
All MJ Tribute!!
on kinda of a funny note, the boy popping and locking in the beginning is probably older then you are.😃😃
Ok, here we go. All references if you're watching original video with time stamps.
0:12 Kid dancing like Michael Jackson, using a mask that he usually wore.
0:30 The lean he did in Smooth Criminal with Gravity Boots.
0:34 Japanese girls. In Asia, girls lost their collective shit over him.
0:52 The wolf in video of Thriller.
1:20 One of the more iconic moves from MJ, also hard left turn but King Of The Hill?
1:38 Silver glove chair, and Bubbles, his pet chimpanzee.
1:48 Sidewalks glowing a la Billy Jean video.
2:12 Car windows blowing out with lead singer doing the iconic crotch grab. In background there's a flag of MJ.
2:19 The thriller iconic zombie move. Two guys wearing a silver glove.
2:23 Another thing that MJ usually did in his shows. Smoke and wind coming from under him.
2:37 Sidewalk glowing again, and the screen splitting like in Billy Jean clip. (My personal fave is the mailbox)
3:12 Pulling up pants to look like MJ's iconic socks, they were white because your eye naturally go to light and away from dark. He wanted his feet to be highlighted.
3:16 Jesus F'ing Christ, this kid can dance...
3:28 Elizabeth Taylor tattoo, someone that was very close to him.
3:30 The end of Thriller video.
Misc: Drummers sticks, one is silver. Also white glove.
If I missed any, let me know?
If you like drums, listen to Sleep Token. The best drummer on the planet.
There was 15 or 16 ref s for mj
The Easter eggs of MJ all throughout to pay homage to the King of Pop. Me personally I like this one better because I’m a metal head. Even MJ gave his blessing on this cover.
Isn't this about the cpr doll annie , annie you ok is what you say in cpr class
too many people just react to this.. react to more of their videos, that whole album is banging.
Their version is pretty good. Not sure if I've heard a Michael Jackson cover that I felt was better than the original. I saw him in Philly years ago. It was the reunion tour. The old jfk stadium.
There are over a dozen references to MJ.
Drummer killin it sure, but bass player nailing all those falsettos and improvs is easily equal!
MJ is the master we are the ants
How did you miss the Michael Jackson glove chair
If you like this kind of MJ covers, give "Billie Jean" by "The Bates" a listen! :)
Wanna see how its Done... how a True Artist does justice to a classic from Michael Jackson....
See Ren doing "Fire"!!!
Anyone can "Copy" anorher artist! But a Real One will show the respect of making it their own!!!
I LOVE it!!
"...man, suck it up...this is MY channel and this is a reaction video...!!" lol .. good stuff. I haven't heard this song in a looooong time. Please consider checking out Alien Ant Farm "Movies" -- that's another fantastic, fun song.
Check out fallout boy beat it. I'd say it's on par if not better as this cover.
❤ michael jackson.
Drummer, one glove. They sent the h camp the video and he didn’t like the kid wearing a mask, they went back, bunch of, recorded it with no mask, and sent it to him. He said he liked it better with the mask so…
A) Your channel, your rules! You stop, you comment, you replay - no one can tell you no!
B) I am glad that their tribute moved you as well. They could have easily done this badly, and they did not.
C) Subscribed!
See that the drummer is wearing 1 white glove?
This is a cover I've always found better than the original
If you are a drum guy - humble it and watch “Tool - Pneuma - drum cam” - 13 minutes of reasons to give up on drums. ;0)
7 string bass.
Naw man. Pause if u like whenever u like. I listen to reaction videos to share the comradery with the people because it can be lonely AF to enjoy something like this alone. Keep going man.
Drum fan? Sleep Token, Avenged Sevenfold Tool. Est drummers goin
Yes, better
Not better than Michael Jackson, but still great and a lot of fun.
Never understand why people complain about pausing. I want to hear your thoughts when they come up instead of taking in the rest of the song and forgetting what you wanted to say 5 mins earlier. Also, copyright. Pause away my, brotha, pause away. Pauses = less content being blocked.
Not better by any means, but at least they stay away from kids.
I forgot to ask you to PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE consider making a reaction video for Tool -- "The Pot" -- if you don't like that one, hmm... You have never heard drumming like Danny Carey. Trust.
Much love and good vibes!!
