You can tell that there is nothing else Sugarfoot would rather do than play a Michael Jackson track. He knows and plays each of them with 100% accuracy. What a legend!
He is Michael Jackson's drummer for the History tour and This is it
@@ConnorAttwood more than that man
@@ConnorAttwood he was there way before just those two.
@@ConnorAttwood dude he was Michael Jackson’s drummer for 30 years since the Jackson’s first tour pretty sure
@@ConnorAttwood He is the drummer for him in Triumph, Victory, HIStory, This is it, and the 30 year celebration in 2001. More than that, he is a life long friend of Michael and the rest of the Jackson Family.
Been following Johnathan Moffitt (Sugarfoot) for a few years now, I think he is probably the best drummer ever. Thumbs up if you agree👍👍👍👍
its so hard to say that there's a best drummer especially EVER....you have Stuart Copeland, the late taylor hawkins, buddy rich,chad smith, shoot lol even dave grohl....
@@OregonWideOut There are also John Bonham, Bernard Purdie, Jeff Porcaro, Carlos Vega, Steve Gadd, Aoyama Jun, Shuichi "Ponta" Murakami,... the list goes on.
@@trongduc8659 literally the list goes on which is why it’s too hard to say! If anything they’re all great in there own way cause they all bring something different to the kit…and are all great drummers, can’t take nothing away from any of them
@@OregonWideOutThat's why I said "probably the best ever" Did not say the best EVER is subjective to each person.
@@davebuts1921 haha chill bro it’s not that serious
I can see why Michael selected you as his drummer, he strived for perfection and you contributed to it in a big way, Thanks Sugarfoot.
Snçillamnt GNIAL❤
I’m doing this and have done this for MJ and all of you….all for the sake of love!
Here is the mp3 for this song. My gift to the fans: www.dropbox.com/s/3z7j3h3ofqtg86p/MAN%20IN%20THE%20MIRROR%20-%20MJ%20%2B%20SUGARFOOT%20%28FINAL%20MIX%29.wav?dl=0
Thank you so much for this videos!! Brazil loves you!
Thank you Sir 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
absolute gigachad here
❤️
Thank you!
Best cymbal choke style on the planet
Sup Leo any more black widow

@@moonwalker494 its australia, of course
Dude you're on every video i'm interested in wtf
For sure. It’s amazing how big a difference that it can make.
That smile near the 1:58 you can tell he actually felt like he was back playing that song on stage with Michael. made me tear up a little ngl.
Me too. Jonathan is just world class.
Totally! I thought the same thing. I had to rewind to see if it was the same spot! What a great experience he had, I'm sure
4:25 EXCUSE ME WHAT!? That cymbal flurry was god tier
You are a metronome that breathes. The pocket you lay down is deep and your cymbal work is exquisite. Exceptional!
He's where they bring all the metronomes to calibrate them.
This is the Kind of drummer you want in your band. Every single beat he plays is meant to elevate the song, to make Michael voice bright, to add to the feeling and the intention of the song. You can practice 10 hours a day, but you’ll only reach this level when you grow up as a drummer and as a musician. He could have put so many amazing fills in the song, but he has the good sense not to.
This man is highly underrated. Probably THE BEST PERCUSSIONIST in music.
There’s a reason MJ picked this guy
LOL! surely you're joking right? Even I can play this and I've only been playing for like 10 months now.
@@brandonparlee1710 oh did Michael Jackson choose you??
@@ChrisKoraltan didn't realize MJ was a drumming expert. As great as his songs are they aren't exactly super technical when it comes to drumming
@@brandonparlee1710 he never was about technique in his music he was about the soul and you can’t have music without soul, even with all the technique in the world
When I see his face playing these MJ-Songs he seems to be back on the stage in his soul. It‘s absolute heart-warming to see and feel the songs and enjoy the musicality and Skills. Thanks a lot!
I find it great he's using different brands of cymbals. Shows he goes for the sound rather than sticking to one brand. I see Soultone, Istanbul, Sabian, Zildjian, there might be others I don't see.
Doesn't this show that none of the brands sponsor him?
@@brianrichards689 or all of them do
nycolas actually hitted the mark. Guys like sugarfoot, dont need to endorse anything... he plays what he likes to ear... notice that he's using a mix of High end cymabls and mid end cymbals ( his hats are XSR's )... what ever works for him , works for him...
Every brand on this planet would love to have THE sugarfoot endorsing them LOL
For my 8th birthday, I got to see MJ in concert. Today, performances like this may be impressive videos to some people but they absolutely mean the world to me. Thanks
Wow. My son just brought me my phone with this playing..👀💯💪
A legend
Besides the fact that Jonathan is playing with awesome skills / feel / musicality / technique... He is also putting his SOUL, his SPIRIT in there. Every touch is at a higher level, cannot be duplicated just by hitting on a drum. Master indeed sir.
He's showing emotions just like MJ. You can tell MJ is singing for him
So gifted
hi jonathan moffet im a big fan of yours
If Michael sang this song from the depths of his soul,
then Jonathan played it from the beats of his heart.
What a nostalgic divine masterpiece this was.
Big thank you for always being behind Michael Jackson with his music.
Great job Jonathan!
The way he hits the cymbals over his shoulder...
3:54 i feels like he was actually saying hello to Michael. Chilling. You would think it will end cringy but no, the way he gave that hand gesture and finished it wit that " i got you" "you r cool"smirk is deep respect and valuation for Michael. He sings what we all feel. So go on. 😢
Timing is absolutely impeccable. 😁
I love this song!!! Thank you so much Jonathan Moffett for this video
Same here I love it
It looks like beautiful old memories come up as the first smile flashes while playing. Thank you very much, sir! ^^
hold up hold up are those double sided drum sticks 🤯 that's insane just like your drumming this video is 100% insane RIP MJ forever king of pop
8K? This dude should have more than a BILLION Likes!
MJJ,the King, you will live in memory until the world ends, it won't be long for that
what I like about Sugarfoot is how he is feeling and living the whole scenario in his mind. You can see how he is seeing MJ in front of him .
Sugarfoot, you clearly know MJ's songs by heart... Im in awe at 4:25
The whole performance is amazing but 4:00 to the end is on another level. Those cymbal hits, that dynamic, that soul. Unreal!
Thanks for keeping MJ soul music alive.
It literally sounds like Bad Tour, And This Is It. Thank You Jonathan Moffett .
I will try this on my drums! I am a huge MJ Fan😄 Jonathan i saw you two times live in Bremen 1997 on the History World Tour🤗 good job man💪 greetings from Germany Martina😘
Ur lucky
@@stephenm.1988 extremely!
@@shadowthagreat i know, and i touched Michael at the Parkhotel in Bremen🤗
@@MG-ty9hb 😭😭😭 I never got to see Michael perform I was too young during his prime and when he passed I was in my teens and he wasn’t on tour.. The saddest thing in my life is never getting to see Michael Jackson perform in person…
@@shadowthagreat 1997 i was 15 jears old, and it was the greatest time in my life🤗 to touch michael, michaels bodyguard Wayne touched me too😂see him live sing and perform his hits, and do the moonwalk for my eyes😎, it was great, wish i could turn back time🤗 i love Michael and i miss him so much😢
I've heard this song tons of times.....and it still moves me to tears.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
A legend amongst icons, A king worthy of his crown. We will always love you Michael Jackson. God bless you Sugarfoot!
Michael Jackson is the biggest artist in the history 👑 no doubt.
He's playing like Michael is recording this today. I love it. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
still one of the greatest songs ever written.
Every part of Mr Moffett's body feels the music. I haven't ever seen such a brilliant drummer.
He's right in the pocket with Michael's snaps during that intro 💖👌
Do a show with Rodrigo Teaser, the guy is great, we from Brazil are in love with MJ, it would be great to see the team getting together like Rodrigo's tour this month in the USA.
you can just tell that MJ entertainment value still lives within Sugarfoot when hes behind the kit. very cool
Miss You Michael Jackson ❤️😔
This Man is A Legend .....
THE MOST IMPORTANT MJ SONG!❤
love the way you perform Mr. Moffett, the look in your eyes when you perform these songs you can tell you'd love nothing more than to perform alongside your friend once again.
Sou seu fã, Sugarfoot parabéns pela sua brilhante carreira. Um forte abraço aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷
Sugarfoot was a committed soul to MJ music. He loves this because this is what he is..
I just got back from seeing MJ(NY) on Broadway. I think the stage drummer there did you very proud. He's definitely been watching you. The whole thing was an ethereal experience.
Fantastic…. Michaels masterpiece shines through Jonathans drums… absolutely fantastic… If Michael would hear this he would be stunned…👍🏻
The look on his face tell all on how he was bonding perfectly with Mikel all watch the concerts and just mind blowing keep on man and thanks for the great talent
Michael isn't dead. Cheers 💪💪💪
He looks like a kid in a candy store...pure joy. 😊
One of my favorite songs by the greatest entertainer of all time!!!!! And I have to say that I appreciate watching Mr. Moffett perform MJ's music through the perspective and talent of a drummer such as these performances given here.
This is like a spiritual experience filled with magic, and love...♥️ Thank you so much mister, for honoring our hero, our King.🌟🌟
I close my eyes and i am at the concert live with the Goat on stage .
JM is a blessing
You are the best drummer in the world!!! I love you Jonathan!!!
I find it emotional watching you play. All those years Michael's music was such a big part of my life. Thanks for all the great music.
To this day I just can't believe that Michael Jackson is gone. ♥️
Greatest drummer on planet Earth
13 anos sem o Michael Jackson👑😢😢😢🇧🇷👑❤
Pra ser baterista do MJ, o profissional tem que ser brilhante e com certeza é o caso do Sugarfoot! Parabéns, obrigado por compartilhar esses vídeos, dessa forma mantemos a memória do imortal MJ sempre viva em nossos corações! Que Deus te abençoe sempre Sugarfoot! Excelente pessoa e excelente baterista! Abs do Brasil
R.i.p Mike 😭❤👍
RIP michael jackson king of pop
You can tell Jonathan loves this song. What a pleasure to listen, watch, and dwell on fond memories. Thank you!
RIP Michael Jackson. 🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤You are still sorely missed. Perfect drumming as always Jonathan. God bless 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
😭😭😭😭I miss MJ ❤️ soooo much
I came to watch sugerfoot play one of my favorite MJ songs, but never did I expect to be emotional man. This really made a grown man cry
My son started drumming this year. He's got "it". You were on the list of drummers I gave him to study! Your speed during your cymbal shots for alot of Michael's songs threw him for a serious loop! He was like, "How is this possible? How does he hit those shots so fast and settle back into the groove like his cymbals are right next to the snare?!?! He managed to play green day's "basketcase" with full strokes like a champ but still couldn't match your arm speed on the shots on some of Michael's tracks that weren't near as fast! When he realized that you were still that fast after all these years, it really motivated him to push harder! Thank you for all the great music over the years!
I'm in tears this is so beautiful you did so great 🥰🥺❤️
I don't think I've ever seen someone use cymbals so musically.
Thank u sugarfoot RIP MJ🙏🏾
Love you Maicol!!😰😰😰 Gracias por hacerlo posible, Jonathan 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
Obrigado por manter viva a memória de Michael Jackson.
🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻💙💙💙💙 Moffitt is legend and great teacher if drumms ever
God Level! MJ will be in Peace!
What an amazing performance man. That song is always one of my favorites to listen to, and it’s sweet seeing you play the drums to that song. Can’t wait to see what other songs you’ll play to considering you did that in a studio. God bless you Sugarfoot, and god bless MJ. 13 years may have passed without you, but you’re always here with us in spirit forevermore. Thank you MJ, and thank you for being amazing in what you do too Sugarfoot
One of the best drummers EVER. Thanks for all you do!
Wish I could share a dining time,
With him,Can’t imagine all the memories with the king 👑
Very good RIP to Micheal Jackson 1958-2009
We need an album of Sugarfoot playing drums to all of Michaels songs. Just the drums - Like call it Sugarfoots Percussion Dreams !!!
Thank you , i need this in that's moment sad
Such a great feel. So many drummers overplay for clicks and everyone, musician or not should just listen to what Jonathan does, and really feel what he is playing. ❤
I just got hooked on your shorts today and my screen reader is showing me your videos that you are also, Michael Jackson's drummer, what a bonus. Thank you so much for your videos. I am blind but I'm loving the beats. I hear keep them coming.
Is this the most underrated drummer in history? Solid performance.
For sure is!
An absolute legend, even so many don't know it. i am so glad that I have come along your YT videos. I've been an MJ fan since I was incredibly young and I absolutely love ALL of your videos!
Sugarfoot metronome machine. Smooth and precise. Beatiful!
Man knows his cymbals!
I could watch him play for hours. Beautiful playing with such an awesome touch. Truely top draw playing. 👍
Just Wooow 😍
I love watching sugarfoot play....always in the groove. So much feeling when he is jamming.
Iis an absolute pleasure to hear this man playing those drums. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Leyenda👋
