The king of pop goes metal!
Hell Yes🤟🏻
And you're the king of metal :D
Even though you made a small mistake with the line: You've been hit by, you've been struck by, a smooth criminal (or was it intentional?)
Frog Leap Studios You Are Best!
Buenisimo Leo! Un genio Michael tambien.
That's cool
LOVE the silent hat tip to Dimebag in this Leo... you are so creative I LOVE IT!!!
Epic as usual.
Keith Drummond epic pile of shit
Great job man! I appreciate how you made a large effort to be sure it did not resemble the Alien Ant Farm version of the song. I do like yours better.
Sorry John i am not following you here. All i did was compliment Leo on the job he did on this song. So i am not sure what your comment has to do with that. I said nothing about someone else' opinion nor have a seen another opinion regarding my comment. So i am just not sure what it is you are referring too.
John Osborne
dafuq are you talking about?
Are you okay?
John Osborne Taking about yourself in random posts? Crazy man
John Osborne Johnny are you okay, are you okay Johnny?
Nice touch setting your self-advertising to music.
Hail to the king.
ㅤGrinfinório tonight the world dies would be better
It really bothers me how it's not "You've been hit by, you've been STRUCK by" :D
After googling it, it seems to be more of an Alient Ant Farm to say STRUCK. Just how I have always known the song.
Perkele Itse bit of a Mandela Effect? Lol
MJ does indeed sing "you've been hit by, you've been STRUCK by" in the second chorus.
He has to change some words for him to post without them pulling for copyright
I'm pretty sure the remixes and covers are covered by some kind of fair use.
You're correct, anyone can create a cover of a song. Industry standard royalties are owed to the owner of the song if the cover makes any money, of course.
Love the fact that he's nailing this cover while wearing those crocs 😂🤘
I've just become a fan,your doing something awesome.id love to hear pumped up kicks,or Baker street
great job.
Nice one😁
Greetings from Germany
From someone who works in a jail: few criminals are smooth.
right!
great cover, but I absolutely loved the outro
Crazy dude :-D
Can you please cover Gary Numan Cars.?
I'm headbanging and moonwalking at the same time🤘
Dwight Schrute LMFAO.thats a good one.
THRASH METAL & FUN RIFFS and?
No you're ignorant(southpark reference)
Hah, beautiful. I'd love to see that.
Dwight Schrute Im curious to see that. Please post a video... Lol that would be great to watch! *waiting patiently*
I don't think Annie will be okay after this...
😂😂😂😂I guess too...😆😆😆
Mocne :D Great comment, bro! :)
Agree to This xDDD
Annie is now deaf.
@@FullCanoe muahmuah :D made may day :)
Too much talent for one man to possess. You may spontaneously combust due to all the awesomeness.
A cover band, too much talent??
@@TJ-lu8gm its one guy
If theres better. Its yet to be seen/heard/felt. O the groove.
We were blinded by pure awesomeness
I would definitely tend to agree with that
I didn't think anybody could top Alien Ant Farm for a cover of this... Kudos Leo well done
Si broth AAF ya hizo algo como esto pero bueno
Thanks to Alien Ant Farm I had no trouble imagining a metal cover of this song.
i was thinking us a way to sum this up and then i realized you said it perfectly. its alient and farm with a twist and that solo is a masterpiece,
Nar alien ant farms way better then this this song kinda ruins it
Naaah, AAF is way worst. Anyway none AAF song on their album can come close even though album in complete is one (cover) wonder. Second album was disaster, creativity zero, hits zero. They where doomed at very beginining.
When you're a metalhead and you love Michael Jackson
INDEED
You should listen to Morphine-Michael Jackson
Michael was a talent that spans over many music genres and will always be missed 🥺
Absolutely :)
Many of Michael Jackson's Songs are very good being covered into Metal.
as long as Leo doesn't have sex with apes in the videos . . . YEAH ! :-)
@@andystone6777 Woooow......
WALKING ON SUNSHINE - METAL COVER !!!
I never knew I wanted to hear that. Thanks. I'm gonna have an imaginary version going in my head for the next month.
that would be one wicked record
I’m literally going to have to jam that out on my own guitar to get it out of my head now. Are you some kinda Katrina and the Waves secret agent!😂 awesome idea.
Yes
Do pretty fly for a white guy by the offspring next
Yes! Give it to me, baby!
Yes.
Yass
this is a must!!!
“Give it to me baby!””
“Uh huh uh huh!!!”
Leo's immense musical talent can dismantle any song... and make it his own.
We are watching a Master at work!
Love from Australia 🇦🇺
I was 6 when this song same out for first time and to this day I still don't know if Annie is okay...
When Alien Ant Farm wasn’t metal enough...
@xRegulator37x I love me sum AAF, I have a signed poster of them. But tbh I like this version a bit better.
Oh Hell yes!!! Been waiting for this one.
"Hell Yes!"
Capp00 thriller would be cool to hear
so long
Yeah yeah!!!
Me toooo 😎😎👊💗
wow this is amazing, normally you have musicians who are talented, but dont know how to mix. or great mixers but dont know crap about video. You got everything, with great energy. GIMME MORE
this video is a also a advertisement for Norwegian dentists.
An, not a.
Lmao!
I think you mean Norwegian djentists
I was about too say that... nice teeth
and crocks
Proof that you can still be badass while wearing crocs and socks.
The excitement as this notification came through.... HELL YES LEO
"Hell Yes!"
This is good stuff, Leo!
...socks and Crocs?
lol nothing says metal like crocs!
Socks, Crocs, and no f*cks :)
d a d a e s t h e t i c
Kyle Maxwell don't judge..lol I do too..hahaha
You see a man walking down the street wearing those, you know he ain't afraid of anything.
Who dislikes these??? seriously...wtf? LOVE THEM ALL! Thank you Leo!
Frog eat ant?
Damian Damian lol
alien frog farm?
I guess only 73 people get this? I'm old.....
No
Damian Damian ahhhhhhhhh
So what are your thoughts on a metal cover of Dragostea Din Tei?
Yes! Please Please Please! Amazing cover of Smooth Criminal by the way!!
Oh Hell Yeah !
Back to your cave, vile beast.
CountDoucheula Your name suits the comment
1:09 and 2:08 I love the little “Bleh” that he throws in. 😆
Саня, ты в порядке?! Ты в порядке, САНЯ?!! ))
What did we do to deserve this???? I love your covers so much. Not to mention the humour in the videos
I never thought Michael Jackson needed to be metal, but this is a really good cover of one of my favorite songs by him.
Leo - Before i forget... :-D
This video is like the Before I Forget by Slipknot one
I knew, it reminded me of something :D
*Literally drops mic*
Its just like it almost
not this video is like 5 minute alone by pantera
Ramwill Farias not even close dude.... O.. U mean the VIDEO... IC. YAH .. LEO DEF INFLUENCED BY. THE GREAT DIME!!
Did you have cramp at the end and were trying to shake it off? lol
no cuz the haters gunna hate hate hate..
Very good cover! But could you please cover Fleetwood mac - The chain?
God of Guitar good call mate!!
I'm going to listen to it right after Leo's Africa :)
Not bad, this was probably not an easy one, hard to keep the song legit to it;s roots...well done though... always beautiful music...
Wait isn't the lyric supposed to be "You've been hit by, You've been STRUCK by, A Smooth Criminal..."
Yes it is. But do not question the great metal overlord's reasoning.
It is for the /second/ time it comes up in the original song. Leo is just using the first iteration throughout.
Ayuwoki pero metal :v
ayuwoki mas satanico que antes :v
sabía que alguien diría esto sos un kpo amigo naic para ti
When la ayugoki empieza a evolucionar :v
Eni ayuwoki
Jaja. Se oye de la puta madre.
Smooth Criminal is my all time favorite MJ song and while I am a heavy metal fan, I also like a lot of the stuff he did throughout his career. Leo absolutely made this great song even better. I didn't think that was possible. Thanks Leo
damn, that end thing was AWESOME!
yep... and how did you do that effect?
Olivier Levent the effect is called timelapse, there are many tutorials on yt
Indeed. Was I the only one here that felt the music had a "wherever I may roam" by metallica touch?
DeGeeno SAAAAME!!!
No Name, thx... i'll look into it.. .
Smooth criminal Lyrics by Leo
As he came into the window
Was the sound of a crescendo
He came into her apartment
He left the bloodstains on the carpet
She ran underneath the table
He could see she was unable
So she ran into the bedroom
She was struck down, it was her doom
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
Will you tell us that you're okay?
There's a sound at the window
Then he struck you, a crescendo Annie
He came into your apartment
He left the bloodstains on the carpet
And then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down
It was your doom
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
You've been hit by-
You've been hit by-
A smooth criminal
So they came in to the outway
It was Sunday, what a black day
Mouth-to-mouth resuscitation
Sounding heartbeats, intimidation
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
Will you tell us that you're okay?
There's a sound at the window
That he struck you a crescendo Annie
He came into your apartment
He left the bloodstains on the carpet
Then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down
It was your doom
Annie, are you okay? So, Annie, are you okay?
Are you okay, Annie?
You've been hit by-
You've been struck by-
A smooth criminal
Okay, I want everybody to clear the area right now
Annie, are you okay? (I don't know)
Will you tell us, that you're okay? (I don't know)
There's a sound at the window (I don't know)
Then he struck you, a crescendo Annie (I don't know)
He came into your apartment (I don't know)
Left bloodstains on the carpet (I don't know why, baby)
And then you ran into the bedroom (help me)
You were struck down
It was your doom, Annie (dag gone it)
Annie, are you okay? (Dag gone it-baby)
Will you tell us that you're okay? (Dag gone it-baby)
There's a sound at the window (dag gone it-baby)
Then he struck you, a crescendo Annie
He came into your apartment (dag gone it)
Left bloodstains on the carpet (hoo, hoo, hoo)
And then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down (dag gone it)
It was your doom Annie
I have one humble request leo, my buddy is deployed overseas with the army national guard. He picked Iron Maiden - The trooper, as his deployment song. If you could take that song and do what you did to Adele - hello and make it into a even more asskicking monstrosity I would be forever grateful
iron maiden is already metal how do you make it more metal... fuck it turn it up to 11!!!
Leo can do it!
What's a deployment song?
D3Mp5 a song that can remind you of home and keep you happy and hopeful
Currently deployed overseas right now. Leo has made it much less agonizing by creating this great content.
This one would have been good for the show in Stavanger! Definitely one for the setlist in the future 🤘
4:19 Wow catchy tune dude. For a second "wherever I my roam" but then original. I had listen to that for a few times. Awesome!!! Alice in chains feel maybe...…..idk
My thoughts exactly!!
Creed
That solo was awesome! Nice job, Leo!
Amazing Leo, Crocs for the double bass, it doesn't get more metal!
You've been hit by you've been STRUCK by a smooth criminal.
Oh no.
I can't think of anything else but that ONE mistake now.
DAMNIT
The appeal segment at the end is the best thing in this video! The cover song is great, too, but that melody on the appeal bit is awesome!
It's a slightly modified Metallica riff
Had an Alice in Chains feel to it, specially the song dirt
Agreed
Holy Friday... ^^ \m/
I think annie is more than okay XD
Ayuwoki metalero \,,/,
THIS is the version I wanted for so long.
Lurv
Home boy wearing Crocs playing drums. Proof Crocs are metal!
Your fantastic. Been listening/watching for sometime now. Consider doing Leader of The Pack by The Shengri-lahs.
Oh man! Alien Ant Farm wishes their version was as metal as this!
no way, Alien ant farm is way better than this one. Singing like batman doesn't make you heavy.
@@justinconstant2218 I never said otherwise
@@FerF123 AAF is a rock cover while Leo is metal cover. He sounds nothing like Batmetal
67k views in 5 hours... awesome
227k now!!!
and all of this for a copy of Alien Ant Farm.
RJJ Greg Alien Ant Farm copied the late great Micheal Jackson so what's your point ?
Damn , does this mean all cover of Smooth Criminal are copy of Alien Ant Farm ? Dumbass ...
"Dumbass" ? Whouahou...
Who said that all cover of Smooth Criminal are copy of AAA ?
How's your brain ?
did he after the bloodstains on a carpet sang BLAH!!!? GENIUS keep up the good work
Мужик, ты нереально крут!!! А соляки вообще космос!!!
Cover “You’re The Best” by Joe Esposito!!
RC Gusto yeah.. That would be nice..
damn, I love this cover.. that Dean from hell just makes the dropped d sound so badass, and dude, you got the skills to play it. good song, good cover!
HELLO LEO WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOU MAKE A VERSION OF ENYA'S SONG "ORINOCO FLOW" IN NU METAL.
that solo is way too cool 😎 awesome cover ✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻
Саня ты в порядке?
Daridy Аню съели волки (((
"тебя ёбнул, тебя ёбнул, гладкий криминал" XD
Неее...алиен энд фарм не переплюнул))))
Он вошел через окошко, что-бы анус потрепать немножко .
Он проник в его квартиру с настроением не мирным
Если честно то приболел, вот в отпуске лечусь, надеюсь всё будет ок )
Like from Russia
Still prefer Alien Ant Farms version it's more melodic and flows better plus I'm more of a nu metal fan than groove metal fan and more of a metalcore fan than a deathcore fan so this version just makes me want to listen to theirs instead.
Leo, thank you so much for making these awesome videos. I love your covers but I also really like the musical ideas of all your short outro songs about where to get your music! Have you considered recording a full course about how you do your recording and mixing? Your talent and hard work is super inspiring! Thanks again!
Lol the end where he's asking for follows reminds me of a tool video.
Holy Shit I Kno right!!!!
PERFECCTTTTTT👌👌🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💥💥💥💥
Саня, ты в порядке?
Саня ты в порядке?
Саня ты в порядке, САНЯ!!!!
Он вошёл через окошко
Анус потрепать хотел немножко
он вошёл через квартиру, с настроением не мирным
Ты с локтя хотел ответить, но битцуха была против, САНЯ
Саня ты в порядке?
За себя и за Сашку!!
Андрей Сударенко ёбнул*
Аню волки ели )))
И сюда просочился мем от Евгена. xD
Alex Mitrofanov а Евген причём?
you the best!!! very good!!!
could do Rag'n'Bone Man - Human ???
Rubiane&Rodolfo Motta
This month, MJ leaved us...
But will live in our hearts forever 😢😢😢
R.I.P Michael Jackson
Take that outro song and make an original out of it. Jesus, that's good.
This is by far one of your best covers ever Leo, really impresive what you did with this great song, greetings
David Gómez the cover of alien ant farm is better. This seems like a copy except of the guitar solo
homero glockner I was thinking in exactly the same thing, I knew It was familiar for me
I feel like it isn't. He brought his own style. It is way heavier and he also changed the riff a little bit by times. But beside that I think it's very hard to cover this song in a metal/rock way without sounding like Alien Ant Farm
zero fucks given.
CoMod Productions glad to see someone else already explained it better than I could've. My husband and I have played this together for fun a lot to warm up, and it is ridiculously hard for us not to sound just like Alien Ant Farm, even with me on vocals!
Video reminds me of slipknot's before I forget. Good shit
no is like 5 minute along of pantera
Ramwill Farias dude..im talking about the videography. Check out slipknots before I forget video .
I m talking about the videography too. check out 5 minutes along and you ll see that i have the reason
you can't get Intro the Micheal, unless you understand
You just made an awesome song sound even better! 🤘
Nah
Is Anny okay?
michi9955 no, no she not. She's been hit by a smooth criminal and now she is on the way to the emergency room. She will be pressing charges.
My girl & I are big fans. This is possibly my favorite. I would never have believed that Smooth Criminal could have been a metal tune. Most epic. Thank you, Leo! 🙏
Well Alien Ant Farm did already make it into a ska/alternative tune so the jump to metal is not that big of a leap
that's the best version of this song period! and the outro was pretty freaking sweet too man!
I literally was growling at the stop light while I was jammin to this...dude next to me was like "Yeah Man That's Fire!" A train came through, and this dude and I were jammin together! Epic!
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Аню ели волки
I loved the cover. But why is the plug/outro a thousand times more EPIC than the song? What is that tune!?! Is it original!?! I want THAT song!!!
FIVE MINUTES ALONE on a Dimebag Dean !!! I love how you integrate all these concepts that you like in a subtle way! Respect!
Love the “5 Minutes Alone” style of the video. Keep it going Leo!
Ani are you okey? Ani are you okey?
He is not okey he joined The dark side 😂
It is an absolutely amazing performance. I really love it. Thanks!
My LORD this KICKS THE EVER LOVING SHIT out of Alien Ant Farms version.
04:34 Leo in The Flash mode on!
He's polishing the cymbals
damn you really killed it man!!
I wish this dude had videos of guitar lessons on u-tube
