Lots of diverse and interesting comments about the choice of music over looking the fact that these talented students gave up their free time to support a fundraising event in support of the Science museum in London. For those of you kind enough to leave a positive or supportive comment - thank you.
I guess im randomly asking but does any of you know of a way to get back into an instagram account..? I somehow forgot my password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me!
These people are really good dancers! They probably already have, but they should go on Broadway! Good job to those who participated! Thank you for inspiring the children that were there and the adults! - Thank you!
Per me, stasera, una meraviglia dopo l'altra. Questa musica del grande del grande Jacko, cantata e ballata da ragazzi in mezzo alla gente stupita è un flash. Arte povera, da strada, ma con amore e tanto stile. ottimo.
... i'm... i mean... i've got my copy of "Flash Mobs for Dummies" but i can't seem to find the, the page-- hang on... no, that's not it - i mean, the page where it says it's mandatory to use only original recordings.... help a zombie out, here.
+Clivee This is the Glee Thriller/Heads Will Roll mashup, thank you... That said, very talented people putting their time and effort into something they are passionate about. (typo edit)
+Lydia Mathews - Hi Lydia, not questioning the talent at all - they all did well in the routine that they were dancing. The Thriller routine however was specifically choreographed for that music. To see it danced (nothing wrong with the moves like I say) to different music, just doesn't work for me.
Yea, I wasn't having a go, just... I'm an enormous Gleek, so... I've seen the episode it was done in too many times, I can recite the plot of it off the top of my head, and I can pick out the individual actors' voices in this clip
+Lydia Mathews haha that might be a little TMI for some. Some might be shaking their heads at that, but its all cool - to have passion for something is great. Cool to see the London Science Museum featured also. Haven't been there in donkeys years, probably due to the fact I've been living in the USA since 2003 but even then, it was quite a while before that I think since I was last there.
Could someone explain why people do flash mobs to well known songs with well known dances, but supply neither? I am actually asking, out of genuine curiosity. Here is an analogy: if someone did a flash mob to some Taylor Swift ditty, neither the particular dance nor music would be important. Being only Taylor Swift, neither element is in the least bit meaningful under normal circumstances (lol). But when they went through all of the effort to move like MJ's zombies, and it led up to Thriller, and then it was not only _not_ the actual song, but also was _not the dance_, you leave at least me confused, and mildly disappointed. Fund raising for worthy causes is important and laudable. And, of course, I recognize the immense talent and effort that went into this, and recognize I am capable of neither. But would you play the opening to the Electric Slide or the Cupid Shuffle at a wedding, and then play a "Glee" version of it, and do some other dance? That is my question, in pretentious paragraph format.
boy people sure can be cruel!!!! they worked hard so the choreograph could have been better that dont matter they realy worked hard and they did good!!!!! great job all you students keep it up!!!!1
Great song, *horrible* arrangement. If this is, indeed, a Glee version, they should really have known better. You don't mess with Michael. Ever. Regardless of anyone's opinions of him personally, MJ was a music and dance genius. Whoever the arranger was should've known better. But, for what these kids were doing - a watered down, glee-ified version of what was originally a great song/dance act - they did it well. The dancers obviously have talent. I just would've liked to have seen them do something significantly more inspired by the original.
I really disagree with you. I taught high school for 41 years and would make the following points: *This isn't Broadway. The teacher (?) is trying to do something entertaining that involves a lot of kids, lots of hours and practically no expense. These are the kind of activities that we need to offer them, now more than ever. *This is not half-time at Shea Stadium. The teacher might find three students who could pretty much replicate Michael Jackson's arrangement. As a teacher, the goal is to involve as many kids as reasonably possible - not to highlight one or two superstars. Yes, you want a good performance; no, you don't insist on perfection to the point where you can only involve 3% of the students in your group. *They were also singing loudly as a group, and quite well. This is something the average flash mob doesn't do. *Do you think Michael himself would have made the same criticisms? From what I've seen and read about him, he was a kind person who loved music, so I don't think so.
And for the above reasons, I would really like to see these groups get a little more appreciation from the crowd...people watching this and frowning, or not even clapping once convince me that there are a lot more strange people out there than we'd like to think.
NOT a horrible arrangement, it's a MASH-UP, and a brilliant one! Kevin McHale does an amazing version, and is an excellent singer, but with all the echoes and background noise you can't really appreciate his voice, I recommend watching the actual version. And MJ would be the last person to want to stifle someone's creativity! Just because no one does it LIKE MJ doesn't mean they can't do a version that is excellent. Saying only the original singer can perform an actual song correctly is absolutely a false statement. In fact, I can think of several examples of artists doing tributes to original artist that do a BETTER job! Not MJ, but other big names. Adam Lambert's version of "Believe" made Cher CRY in his tribute to her, and made me like the song again, after it got played to death when it first came out. And speaking of Adam, he does Lady Gaga's "Marry The Night" AS GOOD as the Lady herself, he performed it on Glee, and someone matched up that video with Gaga's video, and it was as if they were doing a perfect duet! And Depeche Mode's version of "Heroes" will never be as perfect as Bowie's, but it's damn close.
:/ I can only imagine what the on lookers thought. I wouldve thought they would've broke out in thriller walking around like some zombies like that. Edit: Oh this must be some cover. Thought it was some other song.
Not one of the better ones I've seen. They should've stuck with the original music and moves. No one wants to see an interpretation . . . they want to see what Michael envisioned and performed.

iuw9
wow
a1ftupper
WTF? Thought it was going to be cool until I didn't hear MJ's version. This is a song that should never be remade.
I always laugh at the end of flash mobs because after the song ends, everyone ups and walks away like nothing happened =D
That's the point of a flash mob breh
just like musicals are supposed to be haha
i thought they were gonna stick with the zombie gimmick
I guess im randomly asking but does any of you know of a way to get back into an instagram account..?

Such a nice work.! Loved how they acted like zombies at first and two of them were still playing the role.. Nice dancing skills, everyone!
Per me, stasera, una meraviglia dopo l'altra.
Questa musica del grande del grande Jacko, cantata e ballata da ragazzi in mezzo alla gente stupita è un flash.
Arte povera, da strada, ma con amore e tanto stile. ottimo.
Sorry, no, only Michael can sing Thriller.
This wouldve been awesome if it wasnt the glee version >:-|
I love watching videos like this. Refreshing change from politics. I also love to dance.
For the love of pete, stop hating! ITS JUST THE GLEE VERSION. -.-
exactly, glees shit
Alicia Maynard -.-
flash mobs are so funny because at the end they walk away like nothin happened
Tigger75184_AJ
The song is a mashup done on the show Glee. The song is Thriller/Heads will roll.
They did a great job. Just wish I could here the music a little better. But great job.
Perfect, and the fact of not using the original song, you guys got it. Loved.
They were all great! Really entertaining...:)
it should have been the original song not a sorry ass remake
frankly, i'm past the original song. flash mobs to michael jackson are getting old. time for fresh blood.
dude i want to go to this museum
U guys r brilliant, well done! Very talented dancers, hope u make more vids :)x
Glee thriller? I have this in my watch later.
The sound is bad and THAT'S WHAT MAKES THIS VIDEO AUTHENTIC !!!!!
This was awesome dancing by them.✌✌✌✌✌✌🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
the guy in the I think violrt hoodie had a lot put in it good job!
also everyone else did amazingly
It is the Glee mashup,but it's the Glee cast singing it here.
Cool! Love the Idea and everything!
Were doing a flash mob to thriller duriing lunch at school. Halloween lands on a mondsy so it would be a good way to make mondsy more exiting
no go. That's not the real Thriller song so this is lame.
... i'm... i mean... i've got my copy of "Flash Mobs for Dummies" but i can't seem to find the, the page-- hang on... no, that's not it - i mean, the page where it says it's mandatory to use only original recordings.... help a zombie out, here.
Brilliant job by The Brighton Academy students
This was cheezie
This may be the glee version of the song, but this isn't the cast of glee singing. Just thought I'd put that out there before people dis glee.
Unfortunately the audio SUCKS !!! Takes all the fun out what could have been a GREAT video.
Its the Glee mash-up version of the song but the singing is live - not pre-recorded or by glee!
if the music hade been better i would have really loved it. like if the music hade been put in later.
This is Freedom - not Thriller.....you can't do the classic Thriller routine to Freedom, it doesn't work - still, glad to see they had fun
+Clivee This is the Glee Thriller/Heads Will Roll mashup, thank you... That said, very talented people putting their time and effort into something they are passionate about.

They did the Glee version!

are you kidding me though? this flash mob happened a couple of days after my school trip there!
? I guess I don't get your point.
loved it!
boy people sure can be cruel!!!! they worked hard so the choreograph could have been better that dont matter they realy worked hard and they did good!!!!! great job all you students keep it up!!!!1
The one awkward bald guy at the back not doing anything.
It's such a shame they used the Glee version. This could have been so much better.
this doesn't sound like Michael Jackson but still cool.
Sounding not good.. But great effort for the dance and making someone smile..
Класс!
Love it
Awesome!
I would exit the mall immediately after seeing them walk like zombies loool
I meant not the Glee cast singing it here.
if you cant do the mj version right dont do it.. hes just one of those artists who shouldnt be covered or copied ..... ehhh glee.. noooo
smile. the clock is ticking
Absolutely not

Where's this at?
Needed to practice in front of a mirror first.
its not the Real Thriller but its still fun
Can't you guys use the REAL version of this song! ugh please! -_-
Are they singing and dancing?!
no
I've been there
This the Glee version
tomschmit 😊
this song is not M.C it glee
Glee version
:/ I can only imagine what the on lookers thought. I wouldve thought they would've broke out in thriller walking around like some zombies like that. Edit: Oh this must be some cover. Thought it was some other song.
Utilizan la canción original, así no se ve tan "wow":(
Filmé de trop loin, dommage, et le son ho là là
wathing this flashmob remind me with the walking death
Falla la música..muy baja. Y una versión más sosa sin casi música de fondo
Haha, I flagged ALL the comments.
Batman shirt. :)
dumb funny how they get ignored
enouffffffffffffff strickland's
Shuddap zezzily altamirano
hey many people agree with my opinion. its not my fault you don't.
هاي بً المنصور😂
Pareceu o chaves quando tava cagado kkkkkk
this is horrable the fuck where they thinking not useing thriller by mj
the girl (zombie) at the front in the cream shirt sort of spoils it by singing along to the songs lol :)
I think everyone is singing? I think it's a chorus group who added the dancing.
Freedom? WTF! lol
this is terrible
umm actually really bad
what?
?!
A group of suckers :)
What in the world does that mean? Maybe you're confusing the meaning of "sucker" with something else?
eajjjj..
.
Crap, no moves at all from Thriller
BOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
This version is ass, looks VHS recorded Americans always do it better🇺🇸
shit, its not even the thriller dance
Awful sound system
A hot mess
wack...
what a bad clip...some even dont look like a zombie
awkward to see
Quality sucks
That was awful
Not one of the better ones I've seen. They should've stuck with the original music and moves. No one wants to see an interpretation . . . they want to see what Michael envisioned and performed.
Poor.
