    This has got to be the most extensive cover I've seen. What a great setup! Creatively programmed with all sounds coming from one machine. Incredible job!!!

      Nothing unusual about that.
      With the proper workstation and big ears, most anyone can recreate anything musical from America to Zappa.

    The arrangement of the diller...chiller...thriller....here toniiiiiiiiiight is absolute songwriting brilliance. RIP Temperton, you were a beast of a writer.

    This is not a simple chord progression.

    Love the fact the speakers are on top of an architecture book..
    it’s like you’ve tried to design your own stand, gave up and just used the book instead

    Very nice video ... I really like all the explanations and keyboard split descriptions.
    (And the jokes in between).
    And most of all: it sounds really good.

    Don’t know when to start singing?
    This is the Time Stamp: 1:07 and this is the lyrics:
    [Verse 1]
    Its close to midnight and something evils lurking in 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 paralyzed
    [Chorus]
    ‘Cause this is thriller, thriller night! And no ones gonna save you from the beast about strike. You know its thriller, thriller night! You’re fighting for your life inside a killer, thriller tonight! Ooh! ooh!
    [2nd verse]
    You hear the door slam and realize theres 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 the creature creepin up behind, you’re out of time.
    [Chorus]
    ‘Cause this is thriller, thriller night!
    There aint no second chance against the thing with forty eyes!
    You know its thriller, thriller night!
    Youre fighting for your life inside of killer, thriller tonight
    [Bridge]
    Night creatures call and the dead start to walk in their masquerade. Theres no escapin the jaws of the alien this time.
    (they’re open wide)
    This is the end of your life! Oh!
    [3rd verse]
    They’re out to get you, there’s demons closing in on every side. They will possess you unless you change the number on your dial. Now is the time for you and I to cuddle close together. All thru the night I’ll save you from the terror on the screen, I’ll make you see.
    [Chorus]
    That this is thriller, thriller night!
    ‘Cause I can thrill you more than any ghost would dare to try! Thriller, (Woo hoo) thriller night. So let me hold you tight and share a killer, diller, chiller
    Thriller here tonight! That this is thriller, thriller night! Girl I can thrill you more than any ghost would dare to try! Thriller, (Woo Hoo) thriller night. So let me hold you tight and share a killer Thriller, Ow!
    [Instrumental.]

      Do check out Uptown Funk: Korg Kronos Demonstration by David Champagne running time on video is 19:47 you'll love it! And sooner or later you'll want to by it! This video and that video now makes me want to get a Korg Kronos 2 88 keys. I'm buying one next week! I'm so excited already, sorry Kurzweil PC3K8 your just so hard to program. This would be my upgrade from Korg M1. Peace everyone!

    I also have the Yamaha Motif XF7, and I love it's ease of use.

    • @dynamitekid8967
      @dynamitekid8967 8 років тому

      You have the same setup rig like the keyboard at Westlife boy band, he has the Korg Kronos 88 keys and Yamaha on top of it! Which is a very good combination! Take a lot of practice and patience you'll learn the Korg Kronos in no time. As the saying goes, if you build it, it will come! Take care and God bless you Sir! Peace everyone!

    @GreNadeMusicNL 6 років тому +10

    There is one mistake, in the intro the instrumental bit that you write down as C#m7 - E - E - F# - C#m is incorrect. That C#m should be a E with a C# in the base. It's played as an inversion, so B E G# with the C# note in the base. So a C# m7. Great work otherwise! Very, very nice
