[@bobbithompson279]

Okay, I know this was a year ago, but I've watched at least 30 reactions to this and I get so frustrated that people who claim to love and worship MJ don't get anything but the dudes doing the Thriller moves. Thank you. How no one picks up on dude sitting in a silver glove with a monkey, I don't know. And Billie Jean. That was so iconic. I haven't seen anyone catch on to that.

[@Britton_Thompson]

Just speculation on my part, but maybe they really are legit MJ fans who aren't lying about it, but whose fandom came primarily from just his music alone (records, radio, CDs, etc.), and not so much from his music videos, perhaps?

[@JShepLord]

You can still be a fan of someone and not have seen their music videos...

[@JustIn-op6oy]

@@Britton_Thompson I think it was more of a wanting to do an homage to MJ in a way that would make sense to both die hard fans of Michael and just people who caught the highlights of his career. At least that's what I got out of the stuff from both the band and MJ that's on point. It's pretty obvious they were fanboying hard which is why this is so much fun.

[@OliveWhisperingEye]

NO ONE HAS CAUGHT THAT EVEOTHE MAILBOX LIGHTS UP WHEN HE TOUCHES IT IN THE SIDEWALK SCENE!😂 that was one big thing that made my day when I was 15 seeing the video for the first time and even at fifteen i caught all the Easter eggs of Michael Jackson video classic scenes that Alien ant farm lovingly captured in this forevermore TOP 5 best covers of a song.

[@cParman9]

the drummer had one glove like michael did

[@keithgraham8588]

Not only that but drummers like Charlie Benante from Anthrax usually use motocross type gloves when drumming. Better grip and if your hands get sweaty they won't fly out.

[@athlonen]

@@keithgraham8588 prevents calluses and blisters from the drumsticks as well. It wouldn't have been noticed if the drummer here were wearing two gloves, but since he was wearing one, and on the same hand that Michael wore his, it's an easter egg.

[@njineermike]

I can't believe he caught the obscure eastr eggs and missed the obvious one. 😂

[@echopryme]

But yeah... its also some drummer shit. You ever tried to hold your girl's hand and be romantic with open sores all over your forefingers and thumbs?! Haha! Gloves save the loves. 😎

[@kitoyobeni1]

[@unseenadventure9876]

this video in every aspect paid mad respect to the king of pop, the whole video is an easter egg if you think about it.

[@Rob_Infinity3]

Check out "Movies" by Alien Ant Farm. There's a rather special cameo by an actor from a classic 80s movie in the video.

Alien Ant Farm actually crashed the 2003 BET awards to film a video, that video is a entertaining watch! The song was called These Days

The silver diamond glove on drummer and the seat he sits in is a nod to Jackson’s glove he wore

[@addamz3277]

I love when people notice & appreciate ALL the Easter eggs!

[@charlesfitzgerald9631]

Another Easter egg was the sequined glove chair the singer & chimpanzee were sitting in

[@christophergardiner535]

One of the best covers anyone has done of a Micheal Jackson song. Anthonlogy is a great album with a couple of their songs from the album being on Tony Hawks skateboarding and Shawn Palmer Snowboarding games.

[@purplebeard1526]

@@jimwells768 I'm just not familiar with their career, I could have sworn they had an album out before this one and one after...but it seemed like they disappeared... or maybe they went back to being a small deal.

[@dano3750]

Yo you figure out all hidden stuff in the video except for the glove chair I got the chance to see MJ back in 84 at dodger stadium ain’t no one nowadays close to MJ no one!!!! Love the reaction you got a new fan much love

[@purplebeard1526]

This metal cover to the MJ original was legit. This was a major hit off their album. They had a few other good songs/hits off that album.... but in hindsight I wonder if the success of this cover hurt the band because they seemed have disappeared after this album.

[@CptSlow89]

One hit wonder, thats it.

[@purplebeard1526]

@@CptSlow89 Can't lie that Smooth Criminal was the highlight of the album and the song that did the biggest numbers for them, but the album overall was actually solid as far as having more than one good track on it.

Bus accident, look it up. Coming back stronger than ever. Love these guys.

[@kms311]

They were album of the year nominee for this album. Lost to Linkin Park that year.

[@jimwells768]

Some drummers wear gloves because they sweat and helps hold onto the sticks better.🤟🏻🤟🏻

[@Defensive_Wounds]

Also it limits the blisters that can happen.

[@DouglasJohnson.]

One other Easter egg. Dude with the "Thriller" eyes at the end also had an Elizabeth Taylor tattoo on his back. Michael Jackson and Taylor were friends in real life.

[@rsmith02]

Nice, I didn't get that one

[@AYoutubechannel1448]

[@nekane6168]

It's a really good cover, MJ would love it. I hadn't watched the video, you can see the cover has been made with love. Thank you!

[@NJCHEESE]

Thank you too!

[@joelombardi4907]

maybe MJ did like it.....this cover is from around 2000-2001....Michael was still alive and probably had to give them permission to do it.

[@stephanim2436]

He actually DID love it even better than his own👍

[@1rexrex]

I hung out with these guys a couple times before they signed with Dreamworks and after. My bff used to promote. They opened at a few of his shows.

[@TNT_0.0]

Yeah, dude you got alot of hits but Mike's signature sequined glove? Jesus I feel old when these youngsters didn't see it like I did.

[@fonzerellie3518]

Love The 90’s !!!!!!!!! Its The Michael Jackson one 🧤 glove .

[@tankeater]

"how many MJ references do you want" AAF "YES"

[@VegasYouTuberSteve]

Alien Ant Farm "Live" on Fremont Street in Las Vegas, April 12th... Free show too!

[@athlonen]

The easter eggs I found in this: 2:09 The lean.. obviously from the original video to Smooth Criminal. Everyone got that one! 2:28 The girl in the wolf head? shout back to the wolf that Michael turned into from Thriller. 2:53 the guys in the chair? small reference to "King of the Hill", as already mentioned. 2:58 note the drummer. While drummers do tend to wear gloves to not get calluses on their hands, he's only wearing one, and on his right hand; the same hand Michael wore his glove on. 3:15 a given. Bubbles the chimp that he had during the Bad/Moonwalker days. 3:23 the sidewalk lights up when they step on it. The same thing that happened with Michael during the video for Billie Jean. 3:48 grabbing his junk and screaming and breaking the windows: shout back to the solo dance part from the extended video of Black or White. 3:54 the King of the Hill guys posing like they're dancing in Thriller. 3:58 That's from Michael throwing the block down on the manhole to make the steam come up, again from Black or White. 4:21 touching everything as it lights up. Again, throwback to Billie Jean when Michael was walking down that sidewalk. And that kid though! Note he was wearing a mask.. like how Michael would back then as well..

[@MrsWishieWashy]

OMG!! AAF..... great reaction. Movies, These Days and Glow are some of my favourites.

[@bradleysuarez4]

there were so many MJ references in this cool video

[@billwayne2460]

I love covers that respect the originals but make it their own. AAF was one of best for a song that was perfect but made a different perfect with Smooth Criminal. Run DMC and Aerosmith Walk This Way was two bands helping each other. At the time, I remember as I am olde, Run DMC were new and Aerosmith were old. Gotta know Areosmith was new in 70s. Both were recording albums at same time in what I have heard same studio. Run DMC like Walk this way and Aerosmith were recording Permanent Vacation and asked if could do cover. Helped both

[@TheDeadStretch]

AAF was actually a pretty dope band for the era the came out in. You should check out some of their Original, and yes and you can tell you'll want the music videos of them. "Movies" and "Attitude" are 2 great choices.

[@billtmarchi4320]

My understanding was that this band used to do this song as a warm up song for their gigs. And people were tell I g them that they need to record it and release it. They called Michael Jackson who of course have them a green light to do a cover of His song and release it. Shout out to Michael Jackson to allow other people to do his songs. And entertain everyone even more

[@jonathanmol4489]

You caught more MJ references than any other reaction

[@RebornLeveller]

Great reaction. I always loved this band. They did some nice emotional stuff, but also a lotof fun stuff like this. I'd recommend reacting to the official music video for their song "Movies" (one of my favourites). It includes a lot of fun movie Easter eggs and a special appearance from a classic character from a classic 80's movie. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gnuVpWegm7uHn7c

[@joshuabalko4578]

This was basically a “punk” band paying homage to MJ. They said he was an inspiration for music. He created moves that no one could replicate

[@brennanthabault9449]

There's so many reference's in this video love it

[@josephberg1586]

It's like the 20th reaction Video this morning :-\ The Drummer is wearing a White glove like Michael Jackson did, and not 1 person who watches this song talks about Mikes one-handed drum roll. and yes he does that Live in concert. Just... I mean... god I use to Moonwalk, how do You guys not know this Cover. The drum roll is hard to do, like Mike Cosgrove. Drum Nerd stuff I guess

[@GageTheCannon]

The dude that was shaky with the lean was also holding a guitar that is easily 12 pounds, so I cut him some slack. He'd fall on his face for sure. My guitar is about 9 pounds and that's around average. Dude's guitar has some weight.

[@turdeaugottago114]

drummer wearing 1 glove just like mj used to. white smoke thing from a song i cant think the name of. jumping on car and grabbing crotch and windows blow out from yet another. so many mj references!

[@ultimateninjaboi]

My favorite touch has always been the singer lighting up the mailbox, cuz its also a Billie Jean reference, cuz at some point in the video, Michael props his foot up on a trashcan to tie his shoe, and the trashcan lights up.

I can’t believe the most famous glove from Michael Jackson went right over your head!!

[@lasciethiesing2219]

I love seeing all the nu metal era reactions. Reminds me of my late teens early 20's years. Every rock album that came out for about 10 years was amazing. Definitely a very nich time in music. I remember seeing these guys play this song live as an opening band. So original at the time.

5:49 Elizabeth Taylor.... ex-girlfriend of MJ

[@marisolgonzalez3918]

This video brings so many memories

[@smittyroch6761]

yours is the third reaction to Alien Ant Farm's cover and you are the first to catch most of the spoofs they did on Michael. the drummer had one glove like Michael wore and the chair he is sitting in is also the glitter glove. There is also the liz taylor tattoo for his relationship with Liz. But I loved watching you catch the little spoofs! great reaction!

[@Lestat13]

The drummer’s glove is reminiscent of Michael’s glove...Easter egg😸

[@JayG666]

Understand Jackson was considered lame when this came out, a relic of the decadent 80s.

[@ericevans370]

And when he jumped on the car, notice the Flag on the house... Thank You

the lead singer "Dryden Mitchell" was in a accident back in 2002 and suffered a fractured C2 vertebra and thats probably why he dances like that .

Notice the seat the singer say on with the chimp was also a glove exactly like MJs

[@stevehuhn7096]

Nobody ever mentions the Elizabeth Taylor tattoo.

[@KhawChing]

I just loved how "true" to the sound of the original the song was and how it paid so much homage to MJ with the video. They weren't trying to belittle MJ. I can't remember where I read it but it was a interview with AAF where they said that MJ is iconic (MJ was still alive at the time).

[@adgato75]

MJ himself liked it. He got on stage at one of their shows for it

[@rsmith02]

You have snake sake from Japan in the background!

[@GT.Bugger]

the couch that the singer was sitting in (with the chimp) was Michael's glove

[@johngardner4096]

Seems to me that covers can go to two extremes - the cover artist tries too hard to emulate the original, and loses their own voice, or the artist tries too hard to keep their own sound/look/style, and comes off as snarky. This cover threaded the needle very neatly, keeping their own approach, but paying respectful tribute to the King of Pop.

[@thop1984]

If you look closely at the lead singer's feet when he pulls up his pants 5:36, he either has prosthetic legs or something similar. Maybe that's why he moves differently? I am not familiar with the group, only that they killed this remake. Awesome!
