Too bad it killed the band though. Word of advice: if your band makes the mainstream through a cover, break up the band now. This is the fastest way to be a one hit wonder.
I’m glad they didn’t butcher a classic by Michael Jackson but simply made it even more awesome! Good job Alien Ant Farm! Keeping a legend alive from the 80’s to the beginning of a new century.
Just today, I don't usually bond with my dad over stuff like this. But in the car this came on the radio and we were able to sing along and talk about music we enjoy. It was a wonderful time and I wanna thank you for posting this because I went to find it as soon as I got home. To healthy father/daughter relationships!
In season 1 of all grown up in some scenes has alien ant farm smooth criminal references on all grown up season 1 from 2003 to 2004 @michaeliannelli7725
HOW'D they actually think they could do a legit sendup to MJ's version is just ridiculous... lol xD Yeah, just keep bobbing your heads up & down---- I'm just gonna stick with the REAL adult talent, the King of Pop
Tbh i love both the versions equally they're both sick and im a total mj fan. Usually covers tend to be worse or better but for me its the same quality. Anyone feel the same???
This is one of those rare situations where i actually love the cover quite a bit more than the original. I guess it helps that I heard this a few years before I heard MJ’s original, so this has more nostalgia for me! Both versions are great though!

I love both version but believe it or not this was actually the first one I heard as a kid so it's my favorite of the two. I love both version. I think it's often the case with people they prefer the version they were first introduced to.
@@MichaelD8393 because to “Remake” implies that you are building some from the ground up again, I think you just have a prefrence for “Faithful” remakes that don’t deviate too far from the original, because of ether your satisfaction with the original, or your dissatisfaction with a given remake I’m kind of simmaler, I can’t stand remix’s, not so much because I want them to be more like the orginal, but more offten because they just don’t sound great, like they land inside of musical Uncanny valley, that or the aproach made isn’t my style, everything boils down to perspective and preference
This is literally the song version of those images that change depending on how you look at them. It literally has two different rhythms depending on how I listen to it, at least for me.
@@PattyTheAutisticCreature At least for me it happens that if Istart the song from a different point it can adopt a different rhythm, it's quite hard to explain without humming the song.
Randomly thought of this version out of nowhere and I remembered the name of the band off the top of my head the last time I listened to this was like middle school on pandora

This is probably one of the best covers I've heard. Definitely in my top 10.
So true
This is my number 1.
Probably my number 6

Tbh i love both the versions equally they're both sick and im a total mj fan. Usually covers tend to be worse or better but for me its the same quality. Anyone feel the same???
Yeah
as a metal head myself I prefer this version, but they are both similar to the same quality in my opinion
yup
You can tell Michael helped them with this cover, that's why it shines the way it does.
I feel the same way about Aerosmith's cover of Come Together
If micheal Jackson drank monster energy and was named Kyle.
Good one 😂
Самая большая мешал давал а вот же она потому что женская

Even though it’s a cover of a great classic, this song itself is a classic in its own right.
This song was on my iPod 3 from when I was 7. This takes me back
Its 2024 and we still dont know if Anie's okay 😢
Listen to the band annisokay, annie is doing just fine. They have a dope cover of beat it.
This made me laugh out loud jesus thank you for making my day.
sry but did I miss something with Anakin about this song ? :i
@@HCI1stH4rtG3il Anakin Skywalker?
@@belabear yeah cause other comments said his name as well I ask myself if I miss something Anie is still a shortcut for anakin for me at least
still one of my favorite covers ever!!

Me too
I have also heard this one first, only found out a few years ago that it was originally by Michael Jackson.
Oh wow that’s wild 😂
Bruh people can’t just rate which is better based off which one they heard first
@@dafan-uv8vfActually, you probably can. It would make a lot of sense to like the version you heard first more
This is what a cover should be: make the song your own rather than remake it as a tribute to the original.
All covers are a tribute to the original
@@submissions72 Good point, though not all covers sound the same as the original.
@@MichaelD8393 because to “Remake” implies that you are building some from the ground up again, I think you just have a prefrence for “Faithful” remakes that don’t deviate too far from the original, because of ether your satisfaction with the original, or your dissatisfaction with a given remake

@@Sleepy_Musethat's pretty much exactly the opposite of what they said they like in a cover
"This has been a good day son" American Pie 2 classic
That's where I heard it originally, Jim on the roof with his hands glued to his crotch. American pie 2 got me lmao 👍 ✌️
I binged all three movies this weekend and went back to those days
Fuckin finally, someone knows.
I loved that funny scene
And to think that tiny ants can make such a big sound.
Why do think they’re tiny? They’re aliens after all, they could be twice the size of us humans. Have you never seen the Simpsons?
@@joeymadstoned Good point.
One of the best covers of smooth criminal
One of the best covers ever. 🔥
I can remember when this album came out and to this day still appslutly love the guitar solo and the video was awsome
Here is the question that will last centuries: which version of smooth criminal Michael Jackson or alien ant farm is better
did we ever find out if annies okay ?
On the actual Michael Jackson video, there was an Annie something so I asked if she was ok, am currently awaiting a response
She ded
Naa she got hit by a truck
He got clemita
They've been struck by a smooth kitchen gun.
The guitar riff is sick on this song.
Never gets old love it 💕💕💯💯💯
One of the greatest covers of all time
Vocal harmony at the end is amazing ❤ ❤
Llevaba buscándola mucho tiempo.
Gracias me hace sentir como un miura desbocado
When ever I'm on road trips I find this song on the radio
This is amazing ive been listening to it for years!!!

Damn good cover. Brings me back to when I was told who this was Singing the remake of this epic song....
LEGENDS!!!!!
I remember coming across this song back in Xbox 360 days back when Xbox allow you to buy music videos.
I LOVE ALIEN ANT FARM! I AM SO HAPPY THATTHEY KEPT A LEGEND ALIVE.
My neck hurts from head banging to this
Everything is original still just with some rock flavor, I love it
This is literally the song version of those images that change depending on how you look at them. It literally has two different rhythms depending on how I listen to it, at least for me.
How do you listen to it differently?
@@PattyTheAutisticCreature At least for me it happens that if Istart the song from a different point it can adopt a different rhythm, it's quite hard to explain without humming the song.
I only noticed that with Crono Trigger's Corridors of time.

INCREDIBLE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
They did an awesome job on this song 👍😎💯
Always great, never ages.
I remember when they played live on MAD TV, great times.
The drummer is a GOAT!!!
After all these years everyone hasn't found out if Annie's ok
Stick the puck you the most brutally honest . 🍻
She is lol
This song takes me back
Love this song

Makes me sad I don't know any other Alien Ant Farm songs
You could literally search for more instead of writing this comment
I did not do this.
You're not missing much, don't worry.
This is by far their best song
Check out their song Movies that was another well known song of theirs though it wasn't as popular as this cover
Found this from an old video named Croyt's rage, best way to rediscover this song.

[Intro]
(Oh no)
[Verse 1]
As he came into the window
Was a sound of a crescendo
He came into her apartment
He left the bloodstains on the carpet
She was sitting at the table
He could see she was unable
So she ran into the bedroom
She was struck down
It was her doom
[Break]
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
[Chorus]
Annie, are you okay
Will you tell us that you’re okay
There’s a sign at the window
That he struck you
A crescendo, Annie
He came into your apartment
Left the bloodstains on the carpet
And then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down
It was your doom
[Break]
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
You’ve been hit by, you’ve been struck by a smooth criminal
[Verse 2]
So they came into the outway
It was Sunday, but a black day
I could make a salutation
Sounding heartbeats, intimidation
[Break]
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
[Chorus]
Annie, are you okay
Will you tell us that you’re okay
There’s a sign at the window
That he struck you
A crescendo, Annie
He came into your apartment
Left the bloodstains on the carpet
And then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down
It was your doom
[Break]
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
You’ve been hit by, you’ve been struck by a smooth criminal
[Short Instrumental]
[Chorus]
Annie, are you okay (oh no)
Will you tell us that you’re okay (oh no)
There’s a sign at the window (oh no)
That he struck you (oh no)
A crescendo, Annie (oh no)
He came into your apartment (oh no)
Left the bloodstains on the carpet (oh no)
And then you ran into the bedroom (oh no)
You were struck down
It was your doom
[Break]
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay, you okay, you okay, Annie?
