why do people chat shit ... Ian brown is a genius ... he makes what he wants to listen too .... not a sell out artist .. you either like it or not ... but respect the work ... :)))
I went to school with Ian and he's from Timperley which is in Altrincham. It's in the old county of Cheshire, but is in the modern borough of Trafford in Greater Manchester. It's definitely suburban Manchester and only a few miles from the city. However, it's on the posh side of the city and the people don't have such a strong Manchester accent. They're definitely not Gallagher type accents.
I almost this was a joke when I saw this but then I clicked on it......one musical genius adding his unique touch to the work to the work of another musical genius. I never thought in a million years that Brown could not only cover Jackson but also do him some justice but I think he does. I think Micheal would have liked this.
I have never understood why people just get on and say a general comment like "this is rubbish". If you dont like it either dont comment or make a constructive criticism that will in some way actually help the artist. I like it bro,creative and different.
A clear sign of true genius is when one genius recognizes the genius of another! I have no idea what that says about me though! *cheeky giggles* MJ + IB = BOSS! x x x x x
who even has the balls to cover jackson? not a big fan of ian brown, but this is sooooo good! kudos to brown, anyone who doesn't like google madonna ya jerks!
Best cover i've heard. This is why I respect Brownie so much cos he had the balls to cover this iconic tune and he pulled it off. This is pure poetry in motion.
It's your opinion that you don't like it...I really like it, it's not as good as the original I grant you but it's not bad and I'm a huge fan of Ian Brown. Just because you don't like doesn't mean that everyone else shouldn't like it.
That is perhaps the poorest comment ever made on youtube. Apart from the fact that Reni is the best drummer of all time, John Squire is in the top 20 greatest guitarists, and Mani is in the top 10 best bassists, coupled with the brillaint song-writing of ian and john PROVING they have talent, this is a great tune. People are missing the point, this is not a tribute rendition of Thriller. Cover does not mean exactly the same, Ian has made this song his own in only a way he can.
Thriller was good. At least Ian gives this song some credit. Besides, how many people do you know who could pull of a decent cover of this song. It's not horrible but at the same time it it isn't the most amazing song you've ever heard. It's in the middle, and it's, again, kick-ass.
ha! didn't know ian brown did a cover of this song :) came across it by pure chance. hes managed to take a brilliant song and make it his own :) i love it :) can defo hear his northern accent too :D hehehe
FALL OUT BOY SHOULD NEVER ALLOWED TO COVER ANY CLASSIC EVER. DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THEIR COVER OF LOVE WILL TEAR US APART. anyway, great cover. ian brown>mj
I don't see how anyone who is serious about their music can talk trash about some one like Michael Jackson, people like Ian Brown and Slash wouldn't, we know that for sure. To say someone you don't know needs 'shooting' is abit out of order too I think.
ok, this isn't bad but not my kind of music.all i want to know is why the heck was this suggested to me after i watched a metal version of the original.my guess is youtube doesn't differ music styles.still,good work in this
he he....texaspete...yuouve made my day, im leaving the internet now cos i have had my fill of stupidity..... .......Its the one road, it may be the wrong road, its the road to god knows where...la la la la la la la la la...
Clever, I'm suprised you could come up with such a "witty" retort with Ian browns mid section in your way While you service him with your mouth. Ps. You might not want to spit his load out, I heard it can be good for the skin.
i heard The Light Speed Champion cover of Thiller. All I can say is HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. Now that is shit.
The fact that you've wrote such a long reply tells me you have alot of time on your hands! You need to chill out, you started this confrontation (inter-web-trolling) Cheer up and put some make up on and make up.
i like it I hate michael jacsons thriller its to noisy I wasnt able to sleep......haha now Im sleepy......NOT! Im more sleepy to your thriller and you force me to do my home work WHILE IM TIRED!........I like michael jacksons thirller because im to energenic to do my homework and i can do my homework ERLIER but to you I CANT DO IT EARLY!
why do people chat shit ...
Ian brown is a genius ... he makes what he wants to listen too .... not a sell out artist .. you either like it or not ... but respect the work ... :)))
Did u like this
His billie jean is good and this is too. He knows a good song and brings a realism to music that is rare these days. Big up Ian Brown
I can just imagine a zombie dancing like bez listening to this.
Brilliant 👏 RIP 🙏 Michael xx
This is the way any cover should be done: you take the material and tailor it to your own style. Awesome.
Ian brown is in it for the music not the money
What a fucking version. Well played Ian.
Anyone on here slagging this tune doesn't know anything about this great great man.
Go on ian
I wish King MJ still alive just so I can ask him his thoughts about this great cover.
RIP Machael
Fantastic job Ian

love this cover

OMG! this is so amazing, first time i hear it. Great cover (and I hate most covers).
I have never understood why people just get on and say a general comment like "this is rubbish". If you dont like it either dont comment or make a constructive criticism that will in some way actually help the artist. I like it bro,creative and different.
The best song of all time.......SURELY
takes me into a different world
a great cover
i love this, Ian is a God
Great version. Brown is a genius.
Ian brow is cool as fuck but this just makes me laugh I really mean it I can't stop laughing
and that picture at 1.43 tipped me over the edge
Yeah what the fucks Barry White doing in there ! ??
i love ian brown and the roses, but i can't say i'm liking this
at all
It shouldn't work but it does! Ian is a magician...I love it.

A clear sign of true genius is when one genius recognizes the genius of another! I have no idea what that says about me though! *cheeky giggles* MJ + IB = BOSS! x x x x x
Now there's a cover I wasn't expecting. This is interesting.
i usally hate covers, but this ones fucking amazing.
thank god for ian brown
Little gem.
Sounds groovey Man!
Get In !!!! Ian brown does thriller, what a man.
I saw a butterfly do the moonwalk today!!!!
who even has the balls to cover jackson? not a big fan of ian brown, but this is sooooo good! kudos to brown, anyone who doesn't like google madonna ya jerks!

It's your opinion that you don't like it...I really like it, it's not as good as the original I grant you but it's not bad and I'm a huge fan of Ian Brown. Just because you don't like doesn't mean that everyone else shouldn't like it.
If people knew who Ian Brown and The Stone Roses are/were, they would 'understand' what he's done with this cover.
I like it a lot.
Go listen to "Fool's Gold" by the Roses, and then come back to this.
agreed
gotta love ian brown
ian brown = LEGEND
mmmmmmmmmmm...what can I say....Unusual!
Exactly....you confirmed my point !
this is hilarious, imagine ian at home completely fucked when thriller comes on and he has the idea to cover it.
COULD PROB RAVE TO THIS !! U KNW XX
Ian Brown is awesome. This is gash.
Good evening from Singapore! I wish you'd have a amazing week =)
sound mate
I.B. messiah!!!!!! go see john and reform the Roses..... a generation needs you
Agreed. I'm not even a fan of Michael Jackson, but his is definitely better in my opinion.
I wonder how it would sound live :D
Ian brown and thriller are meant to each other.
That is perhaps the poorest comment ever made on youtube. Apart from the fact that Reni is the best drummer of all time, John Squire is in the top 20 greatest guitarists, and Mani is in the top 10 best bassists, coupled with the brillaint song-writing of ian and john PROVING they have talent, this is a great tune.
People are missing the point, this is not a tribute rendition of Thriller. Cover does not mean exactly the same, Ian has made this song his own in only a way he can.
@bobbitt187 Burnage is only about 4 miles away from the town centre.
I'd like to see you all say that to Ian Brown's face that would be funny seeing you in so much pain dying on the floor hahah xD
awsome cover
Love it when it passes your expectations. Great job Ian Brown.
whatever he sings sounds gr8
I can dig it.
genius!
anyboy knows in what album is this song???

Thriller was good. At least Ian gives this song some credit. Besides, how many people do you know who could pull of a decent cover of this song. It's not horrible but at the same time it it isn't the most amazing song you've ever heard. It's in the middle, and it's, again, kick-ass.

In its own way, this is brilliant. Love Ian's vocals.

You was dropped on your head mate!!!
my comment is 2 years old... but not as late as your reply.
i really hope you come back to your account and notice this comment
Clever, I'm suprised you could come up with such a "witty" retort with Ian browns mid section in your way While you service him with your mouth.
Ps. You might not want to spit his load out, I heard it can be good for the skin.
psh this is way better than mj
original!!!
First heard this on Sirius Chill bout 5 years ago, such a brilliant remix.........if you thumb this down.......well.....you just suck.
Relax people your opinion means nothing anyhow!!!!
the most ridiculous comment ever award goes to you mate
thats easy for you to say
It's weird how different it sounds compared to the original. A lot less cheese. Part of it may be the way he changes the vocal rhythm a little.
@MrShadow675 Well duh
This is kick-ass. I think its better than Jackson's. Jackson's sucked, sorry but that's the way I feel.
i heard The Light Speed Champion cover of Thiller. All I can say is HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. Now that is shit.
