They Don't Care About Us by Michael Jackson Meets Metal

Hey guys!

So here we are :) Thank you all so much for everything! It means the world. BIG ups for always rocking my casbah!

Imagine if MJ was still alive and him and Eric did this live. I think the world would explode. This sounds incredible!!

[@dakken74]

imagine seeing this version LIVE! holyshit that would be amazing$

[@clearspira]

+Luke Datema If MJ was still alive then he would be a very ill man. Honestly, I think that he would have probably died a second time by now.

[@DarialKuznetsova]

+clearspira Agreed. Then again, how many of those meds he took were actually necessary...

[@greekfreak1980]

+Luke Datema Believe or not,Michael Jackson was a big rock fan,that's why he got EVH,Steve Stevens,Steve Lukather or Slash,to work with him, back in the day.And his tour guitarists were top-noth,in the 90's he had Greg Howe & Jennifer Batten in his live band.

[@pumpkinslice1811]

You just made me cry, dammit!

[@331Erock]

You rock! Just wanted ya to know. Whooooooo!

[@Doganzaka]

Amazing job, Jackson must be dancing in his grave. Would you mind doing GG XRD's theme Django Django?

[@gallymanson8419]

+331Erock YOU rock ! i wish one day i can meet you :)

[@clearspira]

+331Erock David Bowie tribute please :-)

[@londonismylife1]

+331Erock No, YOU rock we watch in awe *_*

[@miciso666]

+331Erock no dude you fucking rock for finally doing this :D this is fucking amazeballs

[@5h007n1ck]

To continue MJ theme... Give In To Me meets metal!

[@MorenaNama]

OMG YAS

[@Wormweed]

+Евгений Коркуц (Eugene Korkuts) Yeah, this!

[@ComiicSams]

I'd like to hear "beat it meets metal".

[@CryingZombie666]

+Евгений Коркуц (Eugene Korkuts) Fuck yeah!

[@Sarwyck]

Yes fucking please!

[@GeneralMcBadass]

Those lyrics really do resemble something that would be fitting for a metal piece, never thought about it

[@samuelbrunkow7737]

Metal NEEDS to be reclaimed from the fascists permanently. Bands like Rage Against the Machine and System of a Down have helped. We need MORE.

[@pimpmyrustbucket]

This should be the BLM theme song

[@MythopoeicNavid]

No doubt!

[@zaccorpseman7366]

2:27 Those riffs are already sick in the original song and this cover just makes it fire! 🔥🔥

[@richardrackley2430]

great job man, also proves that mj had one of the most versatile voices and songwriting skills in the history of music

[@martelthebergepierre-andre6217]

Hard to beleive it wasn't a metal song originally

[@ShoubhikBanerjee]

So true.. I watched his This Is It, and there was a time when he wanted the guitar to go to crescendo.. He would surely love this cover.. And performing it live would have been orgasmic!

[@daemonfrost6151]

Man one of my favorite Michael Jackson songs and you killed it man. This might be the only version I listen to now.

[@calzvicsius]

I love the genuine joy this guy gets from playing like that.

[@Itsjustjess352]

I just knew in my heart this was a song you would cover. One of my all time faves! So awesome to keep coming back to! 🤘🏼

[@JanWikholm]

Damn! Forgot how bad-ass Michael Jackson's songs were!

[@TheMjlover206]

I love the fact that he's smiling and really into it. Most people just stare with a blank face when they do things like this but you can really tell he's enjoying it. Keep it up!

[@AllyMinten]

Wow.. amazing Eric, I love it.. and it was nice to actually hear a Uncensored version of that song!! Omg so awesome! How could people dislike this?? Thank you!

[@paulmuaddip5727]

If you released a CD with every single one of your "Meets Metal" stuff on it. I'd buy it. Just saying :)

[@namestwinkie]

I was at work (I work at a Zumiez), and I heard this being played and remember running to the back room and looking it was Erock shredding it and I smiled. Honestly, I have every single album you made so far, keep up the amazing music and quality! You rock!

[@jasonko9694]

This song was meant to be metal my boy

[@CryingZombie666]

+Jason Ko But the metal version never happened, kid.

[@aarotoivari8940]

+StygianTraveler141 what do you mean?

[@CryingZombie666]

Firemang 880 Meaning there has been no official metal version of this song 'til this vid.

[@akilasayouru6868]

Whoa! Favorite song, favorite cover artist, on my birthday. This can't be better! :) You have a very strong musical talent! Keep it up!

[@marble_wraith]

Thanks for not butchering the vocals, this is actually captures the intent of the song better then the original.

[@GGDrummer]

Fantastic Eric!! You could make a meeting of "Speed ​​Racer " also called " Mach Go Go Go" in Japan and the Metal. The song is " Go Speed ​​Racer Go"

[@Chadagon_of_the_Swolen_Order]

You should do a Smooth Criminal cover. Loved this one c:

[@noahmiller6193]

This has got to be my favorite Michael Jackson song. It goes great with a Power Metal vibe.

[@TrashMojo]

most fucking triumphant dude! you gotta do up speed demon one of these days. ive never heard anyone do just to that song, and if anyone can do it, its you. many cheers dude

[@Leo619858]

Those lyrics tho, what a perfect song for what's going on nowadays.

[@Madblaster6]

Because it never ends.... :(

[@MrHankTango]

+Leo 619 These lyrics are timeless..... sadly.

[@GT-wj3gl]

Truth.

[@331Erock]

+Leo 619 Sad but true

[@GabryyLG]

Leo 619 Whats always been on.

[@ApolloJ14]

Oh man, this live with Michael Jackson would be absolutely amazing!!!!! The audience would be melting hahaha. I've only just found your channel & after one song have subbed. Amazing gift you have there amigo

[@jameslrbrand2002uk]

One of my favourite MJ songs next to Smooth Criminal and Jam and this is epic

[@revanx73]

good profile photo :D

[@jameslrbrand2002uk]

likewise serrah

[@MorenaNama]

YAS!

[@maxek46]

This is definitely one of the coolest covers yet. Gonna see if I can get this played at my local metal club. Now to put the song on repeat a few times...

[@jedipoodoo]

Speaking of the 1980's, how about Knight Rider? Interestingly enough I didn't see it on your video list, I think you could really do it justice!

[@NerveSalad]

This was pretty awesome, man. Careful with that shirt, or Metallica's perfect team of music-loving, metalhead lawyers will send you a Cease and Desist letter.

[@331Erock]

+TelephobicLens Already got one haha

[@ibriselric2]

+331Erock Seriously man? What for? Hahaha

[@BovinaSancta79]

+331Erock Please tell me that was a joke?!

[@Ninjacat72]

PelleK covered this song and it was amazing. You two should collaborate on this one it would be EPIC!

[@JDawgss]

i always love when you cover MJ.....awesome, loved it so much, brings me back every time

[@dark_lyrics_channel]

This kicks ass. You should do either "Give In To Me" or "You Rock My World" next (:

[@Gosumoni]

Great job as always Erick! By the way, you should totally introduce John Cena's theme (My time is now) to metal. :) Another personal dream of mine would be to hear either a Piano black (From Cowboy bebop) meets metal, or even a full cowboy bebop medley as that show has tons of sick songs that I would love to hear your versions of. :)

[@xXlNesTlXx]

Dislikes in this kind of videos only can have a reason....HATERS.....nobody dislikes the talent

[@RichyJam2011]

Hope you don't mind, I've ripped this audio on to CD. and currently got it playing in my car. The subs are going mental, sounds fucking awesome, perfectly mastered and shit

[@Daslicey]

so i havent listened this song for awhile and started listening to it again since yesterday and no you post this..... illuminati confirmed

[@kratosgamer141]

i love you ( michael jackson would be proud of the cover i love you)

[@deinemuddr1234]

man im from germany... missing your stuff:'(... good work! makes a cool song even better

[@ChrisUlrich]

Some of your licks are absolutely unreal... the sound is amazing. It's like you're writing this music for my ears. Absolutely fantastic writing.

[@UnveiledShadows]

Have you thought about covering one of the openings from RWBY? Possibly in a manner similar to the Avengers cover? Four guitar parts would probably hold the same flare the original openings from Casey Lee Williams have, but still hold that same ERock style we keep coming back to, wanting more.

[@vladgodoroja]

Wowwwwww, it is one of my favourite Michael's songs!!

[@Hakkis109]

You absolutely nailed it this time. i found this song just 6 months ago and always thought that it has potential to be a very good song for metal covers. I never searched it and now I don't need to. Thank you very much! Still waiting for that BMFM cover!

[@Wangti0027]

Its very very cool, thank U This giutar solo was awesome. Michael will love this

[@shedman7306]

i love how you are so happy and you just play without some dancing and other douche stuff

[@reikoshea]

My favorite MJ song. Well done sir.

[@lowbow9028]

You made it look so easy. I can see how you enjoy playing guitar. Thank you for this!

[@i.c.y.]

brilliant arrangement. kudos!

[@Wolfbane382]

I love it! Its so wicked sweet to see this as metal version. Wonderful work!

[@Zekrom134]

this sont was born to meet metal

[@maiqtheliar789]

+Wolfs Bane I think he should do beat it next.

[@Wolfbane382]

M'aiqThe Liar agreed ^^

[@dakken74]

+M'aiqThe Liar you should check out Raintime's cover of beat it.

[@horrormovieprimetime4977]

Bro I've been watching your vidz for a few years now man, you got some real F'N talent I think you could be as big as Ozzy is, Rob Zombie, Dio etc. You truly are a God of metal dude keep rockin' out for all eternity God gave you something special.

[@thebroskeez]

Wow. Iv been rocking this MJ song, and your songs, for the past 2 weeks. Every day all day. Now I see you make this song. Am I psychic? Yes, yes I am.

[@Hansruedi00mc]

the song already is,amazing, you made it better, and you always look so happy... we need more ppl like you

[@Flameblade69]

So, at this point I am convinced Eric can change any song into an amazing metal version. My question is how about a series of random sounds, like someone farting and burping?

[@theantemon6720]

i really love how you do the mixing you do with rock+any other songs. it's definitly 'rock' but not.... overpowering enough that it no longer resembles the original

[@cuckoodemon5472]

I love MJ, dubstep, and metal! Thank you so much for making this!

[@TheLunnyBear]

Love to hear your take on Speed Demon by Michael Jackson

[@richardjohnson2650]

every original solo is so damn good. it's not just noises it's art man I can't get enough

[@BlueSeaShark]

Awesome, bro! I really love and enjoy your rock version of this MJ song. Especially that moment: 2:25 E.Rock, you literally rock! 🎸 Keep up that great stuff and God bless!

[@clownbasher2911]

I love how you stay away from easy choices and elevate and respect the original songs!

[@spydebergskrens]

Just have to keep looking at his face when his playing, pure joy and real satisfaction. Keep on playing! Thanks!

[@theskomax]

One of my favorite songs from MJ :) Thanks

[@Dudeonwheels]

I've always liked this song. It's cool to see a metal version of it.

[@gdomjan83]

Wow, I knew this will be good, but it turned out even better than expected. You rock Eric!

[@pecha3796]

David Bowie now!

[@DrakinStormHeart]

+Tiger Chirp Seconded, Bowie needs a metal tribute, I'm thinking Space Oddity or, you could go balls out and do Dance Magic.

[@mackenziehmusic]

Yes, please

[@Certifiable]

+Drakin StormHeart Thirded! Could even ask Cmdr. Hadfield if you can borrow his vocals from his ACTUAL OUTER SPACE performance!

[@JoelSmidt]

+Drakin StormHeart changes is good too!! ;D

[@silatguy]

+Tiger Chirp Im afraid of America

[@rmdcade1717]

Talk about a badass surprise. Of all the MJ songs to do, this is probably the best choice.

[@WillNina1]

The Elevator Down- Cadillacs and Dinosaurs, this track make me wanna cry :')

[@BuckyBison13]

Thank you so much for doing this, this is my favourite MJ song, and to hear it converted to my favourite genre makes it better.

[@zlymaciek]

NICE! Please do Banjo-Kazooie Meets Metal :)

[@Choyx13]

Awesome man! BTW you Rocked @NAMM16, amazing! \m/ Didn't expect to see you there :D !!

[@stelvis1984ify]

[@IRNatman]

Sounds better this way to me. :)

[@Skanderbeg99]

Funny thing is, you uploaded it 1 day aftrr MLK day, thank you for this Erock

[@scufflingboogaloo5006]

I love what you did with this song! Is fits metal perfectly! It does sound a little echoey though, not sure if that's just my headphones or what

[@BlueRat]

[@anaygupta3512]

[@MsBanana15]

Your videos always cheer me up when I'm down. I just love watching you shred. :D

[@aamu9559]

I must have listened to this about... 30 times already? Another awesome cover! Quite topical with the current state of things too!

[@krzysiekkapera6622]

Eric, you should totally do Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends theme :D

[@Ciclopea2]

Michael Jackson was very metal, glad you saw that, awesome rendition.

[@GavriliuStefan]

This is pure joy! *Really* good job, monsieur!

[@mozgotron12]

Парень отжигает! Если б у Майкла Джексона был ТАКОЙ Музыкант, то любителей его музыки было бы раза в два больше!

[@temjinAMG]

10/10 as always

[@themediaangel7413]

Great job, as always! I'd like to see you do "Super Smash Bros. Meets Metal" and "How to Train Your Dragon Meets Metal". That'd be awesome!!
