1:54 when the band director emails y’all about the band camp dates
Im in tears😂😂
Omg same

Durr Burger I did to
@@DavidThePercussionist i leave tmr for band camp im in guard tho...
1:54 is when mom gets home and you and your siblings forgot to take out the trash
cheez whiz so true 😅😅😅
That was so random XD
lel
Forgot to defrost the chicken lol
When ye fail to wet the sponge properly!
This piece is always included in our concert list. I remember when I first saw the Trombone music sheet I was like, "DAMN, WHAT IS THAT?'
1:09?
@@noahk3226 yeah bro that's the one HAHAHA
@@maryrochelleanne I don't find it that hard tbh. You also have support from the tenor as well
@@noahk3226 At first I find it difficult but eventually through time I've realized that it wasn't bad and it kind of easy.
@@noahk3226 Glad that it was easy for you hahaha
That scream describes my entire life.
Bri Stewart hahahahahaha like that is so true and funny.
lol
Same
Very much so in 2020
1:54 yep can relate
My marching band plays this EVERY Halloween.
Same we pull it out every year around Halloween
We do as well Wich instrument do you play
@@Evangelionfan15 this season I was on bass drum 1. Next season I’ll likely be Drum Major
@@excitedpatsfanwx681 that is awesome
@@Evangelionfan15 I mean being the only Junior/ Senior in our HS marching band helps as well 😂
were playing this for our marching show this year! this is the only song my director didn't write himself.
This song gives me MAJOR flashbacks to middle school band when we played this every rehearsal for the Halloween parade
Our marching band is playing this for field shows, and the trombone part is awesome!!
This helped me a lot with the Trombone melody. When I first saw it I was just like: "WTF is this section supposed to be?" xD
Marshal6000 hahaha :) You are livin trombone life
me 2
Baritone and tuba for the win
Same here. We always get some weird thing thats not the melody, but still hard.
Annika Haug OH MY GAD DO YOU PLAY TROMBONE TOO?
I'm going into high school and if you're in band you are automatically in pep band too, every year as a half time show we do a tribute to an artist in the past we've done styx and fallout boy. this year it's micheal jackson and I'm super excited!
same bro were doing this for our halftime show too
@@HAWK..402 Have fun man, band brings me my favorite memories of highschool... and good luck!
For my school you're automatically in pep, marching and concert
@@Jocythegreat to me that sounds awesome. We didn't have the funding for a marching band, would have loved to.
@@p1ish were a really small school so usually most funding goes to football but we luckily still get money for the band dept since for pep rallies and games and other sprit events were the ones who are there playing so yk also it’s so cool thatt you still respond after like 7 years
your videos are so good omg. you hear no errors, no squeaks, no explosions! omg this is great
There is this one band that does this song (I don't think it is the same arrangement) that is doing an 80s theme show, in which during the drum break they do the Thriller and I get chills every time.
Memories of marching band... I'm trombone.
My band played this at our town Halloween Parade! It was so awesome! I just held the banner of my band since I'm not in drumline sadly ;~;
I was in drum line and we did it except we didn't play quarter notes the whole time and we just made up a part
I had to play this for 5th graders and they voted baby shark over this -_-
At least you tried
Kill them, literally grind their little bits of bone marrow into milk shakes and drink it in front of their families while showing them their dying children, then do a horrible fortnite dance on their graves
@@hiiexist479 geez dude
@@goldenninja1085 do you want worse?
@@hiiexist479 naw, im good. that would be evil enough for me
This is the song that my band is playing right now, and I have it memorized. (Which isn't that hard because the tuba part just repeats a whole bunch of times)
same
Aela Krubsack tuba part is so lit though. I play that part at the beginning, even though I play trombone.
anyone and everyone who plays the bass line just repeats so, as a bass clarinet, octave jumping is not your friend if you have small hands.
Aela Krubsack ikr. Playing this in my concert. I'm scared. Really one of the music pieces that I'm afraid of. Don't know why.
Oh are u a tuba, too? Ik what ya mean we needa play all the time the same it's just...😂
Trombones: the same thing *over and over again*
Same thing with the tubas so annoying
Isn't it the same though out
bass drum is literally quarter notes over and over 😭
Literally any tuba part
as a trombone i can confirm
We’re playing this at my middle school, and omg the seventh graders in my alto section need to listen to the rhythms.
Just got this piece today for MB, as a first picc I'm very excited. Especially for that scream
yoo we were playing this song (King of Pop) in band for 7th grade and i still remember when the drum had a solo and we’d always look at each other because the beats were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! great song
Dat scream doe
Ikr
Toboto for my band we had scream auditions it was bad
I have to scream win the day every single day
Toboto lol
lol
Flutes for life
We played this last night and it was a banger like always
Playing in band right now! Imma flutieeeeee
im trumpet 😛
More of Dr.Muffin I'm Sousa!!!
Im a Sousa!!!
Quinn McMath that was my other choice
There both good but drums are the best
I’ve played many instruments in band, can’t say I have a favorite.
Trumpets FTW!!!
Arthur está evoluindo demais, está decorada já!!
I played this during halftime at my hs's football senior night
it was so FUN 🤩
We did dances on the football field, and when the tubas did that "BUM BUM" thing we did zombie walks and stuff and it was fun
Same in in 6th and we have to play this oct 6 at a football game with the 8,9,10,11,12 graders😢 I’m so nervous
That scream is me when I see how much homework I have
We are playing this for marching band and I’m honestly so exited
Just played this in 8th grade for a parade, was so much fun with 250+ of us
One of the reasons that I PERSONALLY think that band is better (just an opinion, please don't reply saying 'OMG ORCH IS WAY BETTER') is that we get to dance when we play! During this song and many others, the entire saxophone section (me too!) in the top band in middle school dance randomly! Us four like to plan it out, but it's so much fun and when we played for the elementary kids, we were dancing all over the place! My little sister said that everyone was talking about us.
Band is soo much better I agree
Especially if your a sousaphone you get to dance
In our school band even we trombones shake our instruments in the rhythm while playing:D So much fun playing this
I'm in both (trumpet and violin)and I agree
same
I was practicing this version instead of the other one and I like this one 10x better
We playing this for marching band rn for our Halloween parade
Same
I love playing this song...I'm a tenor saxaphone player and it's a lot of fun
Tenor sax gang
Trombone player here, cheers to you because trombones and tenor sax's have a lot in common :D
The base is so awesome it's good to be a baritone player
+Brickbuster Films agreed ;)
Bass
+Hector Hernandez clarinet
+Hector Hernandez me and my friend Carl Humphreys did this song for marching band
+Hector Hernandez my friend he played the brass
I enjoyed playing this song it was so much fun
I'm marching to this song this year in band 😄
The other middle school in my town got to play this for their spring concert
that scream tho im dying
This was part of my half time show last year with Hempfield Area Marching band
Tuba and baritone part SLAPS
I love playing this in marching band
IM. IT EVEN IN MARCHING BAND AND IM PLAYING THIS IT IS SO STRSSFULLLLL
Help my spelling-
yall are lucky getting to play cool stuff like this. my family always asks me what songs we're playing for concert season and i always have to say "i dont know some shit written by some guy no one has ever heard of before?" my aunt played the et flying theme. what i wouldnt give to play that at a concert
That scream
I am doing this right now actually this is one of my fav michel Jackson songs ❤❤
I can’t wait to play this for 3 and a half hours
Beautiful!!!
If you're not out of breath and you're a trombone are you playing this correct
My band is going to a parade and playing this
I so wanna play next school year and I will be a senior!
Last year we were supposed to play this for the game that was on halloween, but we didn't. The rival band did instead
Through the form of a marching band, it sounds like it should the theme for an early-70s spy movie.
I’m totally recommending this song with another couple of Halloween songs for a marching show for next year. This song is too good to not play.
Lyrics
It's close to midnight
Something evil's lurking from the dark
Under the moonlight
You see a sight that almost stops your heart
You try to scream
But terror takes the sound before you make it
You start to freeze
As horror looks you right between the eyes
You're paralysed
'Cause this is thriller
Thriller night
And no-one's gonna save you
From the beast about to strike
You know it's thriller
Thriller night
You're fighting for your life
Inside a killer
Thriller tonight, yeah
You hear the door slam
And realise there's nowhere left to run
You feel the cold hand
And wonder if you'll ever see the sun
You close your eyes
And hope that this is just imagination
(Girl)
But all the while
You hear a creature creeping up behind
You're outta time
'Cause this is thriller
Thriller night
There ain't no second chance
Against the thing with the forty eyes, girl
Thriller (ooh, ooh)
Thriller night
You're fighting for your life
Inside a killer
Thriller tonight
Night creatures calling
The dead start to walk in their masquerade
There's no escaping the jaws of the alien this time (they're open wide)
This is the end of your life
They're out to get you
There's demons closing in on every side
They will possess you
Unless you change that number on your dial
Now is the time
For you and I to cuddle close together, yeah
All through the night
I'll save you from the terror on the screen
I'll make you see
That this is thriller
Thriller night
'Cause I can thrill you more
Than any ghoul could ever dare try
(Thriller) Ooh, ooh
(Thriller night)
So let me hold you tight
And share a
(Killer, diller, chiller)
(Thriller here tonight)
'Cause this is thriller
Thriller night
Girl, I can thrill you more
Than any ghoul could ever dare try
(Thriller) Ooh, ooh
(Thriller night)
So let me hold you tight
And share a
(Killer, thriller) Oh
I'm gonna thrill you tonight
Darkness falls across the land
The midnight hour is close at hand
Creatures crawl in search of blood
To terrorise y'alls neighborhood
And whosoever shall be found
Without the soul for getting down
Must stand and face the Hounds of Hell
And rot inside a corpse's shell
I'm gonna thrill you tonight
(Thriller, ooh, ooh, yeah)
I'm gonna thrill you tonight
(Thriller, oh, darling)
I'm gonna thrill you tonight
(Thriller)
Ooh, ooh, babe
I'm gonna thrill you tonight
(Thriller) Oh, darling
Thriller night
Ooh
The foulest stench is in the air
The funk of forty-thousand years
And grizzly ghouls from every tomb
Are closing in to seal your doom
And though you fight to stay alive
Your body starts to shiver
For no mere mortal can resist
The evil of the thriller
This years marching season wya?
Meagyn Franklin here
Playing this in band!!! #ilovetuba
Right there with ya. We just got the music last week for it and I pretty much have it down. It's so easy.
Can’t wait to play this in our October parade!
U Mansfield
The amount of nostalgia from when I played this in 6th grade omg
The marching Band memories as a clarinet player
Oh, Paul must have fun arranging this. 😊
gotta love dem stock drum parts baby
I played this in my band class in 6th grade
Favorite thing to play! The drumline gets to "zombie march" and scream!
This is one song that we're playing this year lets do this trumpets
BEST SONG EVERRRRR TENORS FOR LIFE!!!
as a baritone it's just Eb,F,Ab, and Bb over and over again.. but i love playing this so it's alright lol
Were playing this on Friday!!
I don't have this, but I'm in 8th grade so that explains everything
This sounds amazing, I don't know how you pulled this off, but I certainly couldn't, at least not at my current level of playing skill.
AMAZING!!
Our high school band only has like 30 people total with only 1 trombone and he did such a great job with every bit of this song lol
LETS GO BOTTOM BASS DRUMS! GOTTA LOVE THAT BEAT I PLAYED SO MANY TIMES

Ack that pick up note for tuba. It’s so good

Trumpets where you at?
CUZ THIS IS THRILLER THRILLER YEAA
we are playing this for halftime show this year and don't stop believing to. and, i play the alto sax and alto recorder, recorder, Keyboard/Piano to . so, yeah. and, i in Middle school and 7th grader but going into the 8th grade so yeah. so, yeah. well, by !
Young thug ALTO SAX HELL YEA
Hayden Hudspeth aye yes well, not saxaphone player but that is tru
We played this for my Halloween halftime show
i remember doing this for my 8th grade year in marching band for halloween
I played this and Ghostbusters for a Halloween event for band and I was on the drum set for the first time any other people in percussion?
At 1:30 to the whole notes the whole band except for the bass clef parts do the dance and we don't scream which is a good thing
helps me out with the tuba alot cuz i get an idea of how much air i need to use
piccolos for life !
me and my Carl Humphreys did this song in
marching band🎼🎵🎼🎵🎼🎵 this thriller night
Michael Jackson
I love when baritone and tuba get melody
0:05 oh the lotte world?!... What?! Come?!
This makes me sad I was only in band for my senior year.
drum major is a lot of fun for me
The claim that this could even be played by a smaller band is completely unrealistic. i am arranging this for my band of about 30 and i have to move parts around constantly to ensure that everything is played.
Playing this tm I'm in 8th grade and I play drums I like this alot it is fun
