      yah thats pretty shit



    4. 4

      that was the most shittastic remix ever.

      MJ would only say it's good because he was a nice person and wouldn't want to hurt the dudes feelings.

      that was a terrible remix though.



    5. 5

      Wowsa!!! Can one buy it? There's a couple of idiots out there that are putting MJ down saying that he is not as popular as the Beatles or Rolling Stones. That his songs are not as memorable as theirs. I for one cannot even name a Beatles song (never really got what their popularity was all about), but Michael, I can name at least 5 without hesitation. With all the news coverage of MJ, my 5 and 7 year olds have become "hardcore" fans. My son wants to dance like him and my daughter has a poster on her bedroom wall! Love you Michael, always have, always will!



    6. 6

      OMG….good shit. What a wonderful tribute.



    7. 7

      It sucks



    8. 8

      How is it that you think you know EVERY lyric to every MJ song, but when you hear them back you have NO idea what he is saying except the chorus but you STILL try and sing every word? Thanks for making me want to sing without words, MJ. Damn you had some hits.



    9. 9

      hmm i like the alien ant farm one better



    10. 10

      SUCKSSSS dude!



    11. 11

      Hi Perez. I think this needs more FIRE underneath it….stronger bassline. It sounds a bit weak next to the original.

      Mark my words….someone is going to come out with a dance remix album for all of MJ's hits. Most can't be touched though.



    12. 12

      Finally Perez sends me some love! Hope you guys and gals like it… can never be as great as the King, but we can certainly try! Deluxe. x



    13. 13

      loves it. :)



    14. 14

      Ugh. Why mess with perfection? I just don't get it.



    15. 15

      this super sweet. love it!



    16. 16

      That is one garbage remix. I'm all for MJ and especially remixes, but that is really shit.



    17. 17

      not much of a remiz is it?!

      The originals are always the best!

      RIP MJ!



    18. 18

      you cant remix this song, besides adding a wooden clacking sound, a boom-tish, and a air raid siren isnt much work. this sounds like the original, people sould probably stop trying to re-mix this song, its already got a beat. remix something harder, i hope they didnt waste too many hours on this as it sounds pretty close to the original.



    19. 19

      I heard better



    20. 20

      Re: angiehater1

      you dont remember the beatles, but you remember the stones dont you!!

      yayayayyayaya!!



    21. 21

      Hardly amazing. That siren reminds me of my 'rave' days circa 1994. I agree with the other poster, the Alien Ant Farm version was much more creative.

      Someone will put out something 'amazing' but you need to come up with a completely original unheard of beat…maybe Timbaland, Swizz Beats, or someone else can come up with that never been heard before sound?

      This version = not impressed at all.



    22. 22

      mj would die again to hear it



    23. 23

      Re: broke.socialite And I agree with you, as you agree with another. Alien Ant Farm made it their own and did it before MJ died. Why is it, that the JACKSONS are the greedy bastards, but this is praised? It's actually much much much worse than any of the others out there. The original beat was "remix-y" as it was. That's why no one CAN remix it right.



    24. 24

      In fact it has an 'orchestra' behind it, so no, it's not like the original… which of course is better… I try… maybe I try again, but with something else… and leave the classics to the classics… but at least I think it's good… but I must say in my defence, the audio quality is shit on the above track… not sure what Mr Hilton has done to it, oh well.



    25. 25

      wow, i love it, where can i get it?



    26. 26

      luvs it!



    27. 27

      it's really weird and creepy…



    28. 28

      Re: imsoregistered – Facts first luv. I am not set out on making money from it, I am just a producer and wanted to have a go, Perez thought it was hot and that's that. Don't get so excited over other people's greed. I certainly don't.



    29. 29

      man, that was horrible shit, totally shitted on the original, MJ would not be pleased



    30. 30

      .
      God awful!
      Not even in the same league as the original Michael Jackson



    31. 31

      Armand Deluxe…is that like Armand Van Helden?

      I, too, am a big Michael Jackson fan. Musical genius, even though lots of personal dysfunction.
      However, I feel sorry for you that you "cannot even name a Beatles song".
      .
      Honestly, do yourself a favor and LISTEN to them .. you're missing the most influential and unparalled contributions to rock music EVER.
      Definitely YOUR loss.



    33. 33

      fucking AMAZING . a TRIUMPH to mj and his EXCEPTIONALLY good songs .



    34. 34

      Very cool!



    35. 35

      I love the fact that in this picture.. it's showing off the actual invention MJ made of the "Veritcal lean" shoe… making it a US Patent… damn he was so genius.



    36. 36

      This is awesome! I tried to buy it but can't find it anywhere…??



    37. 37

      Hope you are doing okay. Ymi 46



    38. 38

      I prefer the original for sure…. I cannot really understand everything this guy is even saying… I guess now in his death everybody will try to cover his songs as a "tribute" but in truth hoping to make a few bucks.



    39. 39

      Alien Ant Farm's remix is sooo much better than that one



    40. 40

      lovin it!! :)



    41. 41

      i love the original. one of the best songs!!



    42. 42

      whooooeffenhooooooooooooo



    43. 43

      ahhh i lovee armand deluxe!! he's my fave artist ever and this remix is hot! :)



    44. 44

      ehh it's alright. nothing is better than the original though. it's untouchable.



    45. 45

      The real version is my favorite MJ song and this is essentially the same as the original except hip-hop rhythms were added which significantly took away from the song. The orignal is much better. I sure wish people would stop trying to draw attention to themselves and make money off the fact this legend died and he's now a hot commodity and any piece of crap they put out there, with his name even distantly attached, will sell. Ridiculous. I'm sticking to the authentic version.



    46. 46

      unoriginal crap. leave the original masterpiece alone.



    47. 47

      Re: mitc5152 – LMAO!!



    48. 48

      awsome picture.
      the remix was horrible but i def love the original wayyyy better



    49. 49

      gah I hate remixes. havent found the exception yet.



    50. 50

      Re: angiehater1 – he couldnt sing after his voice change in the early 80s then he concentrated soley on the dance moves..He knew that was his only chance of people still giving a shit…The voice changed and SUCKED from when he was a kid..Go back and listen if you doubt that…shumppponnnn



    51. 51

      Re: ArmandDeluxe I didn't say you (if it's actually you) were actually greedy - I'm saying Perez has been quick to talk about how greedy so many of the artists and family are, but yet - if it's something HE likes, it's "amazing". Secondly, your link, has been removed from the original source so we can't hear the "better quality". In the very post, said you would be "remaking some of the King's originals", but he wasn't good enough in life and you aren't good enough without it? Aside from that, if this is really you and those MySpace songs are yours - they are EXTREMELY dated in sound, the tracks and the remixes are identical to backing tracks of remixes in the 90's. A mediocre attempt at best at those mixes as well. They lack a concise bassline beat, the mixing quality is off in more than one song and several of those sounds should be on a L to R fader. Without it, they sound like noise.



    52. 52

      Good booty shaker!

      Thanks Perez & Armand

      Hot remix and a great tribute.



    54. 54

      Re: imsoregistered – wow.. you mustn't know much about this genre of music of then.. the remix that is



    55. 55

      Re: SkippM – shiteous! awful!!! and i thought perez has a good taste for music, hahahah. don't think perez's should ever make his own label/recording. *lmao*



    56. 56

      ZzzZzzz



    57. 57

      That was horrible. Perez, your taste is in your mouth. You have no ear for music.



    58. 58

      wow. well that sucks.



    59. 59

      you shouldn't mess with perfection.



    60. 60

      Pfft. This is a horrible version.



    61. 61

      boring. not enough bass. needs more umph to dance to.

      how dare he, Smooth Criminal is UNTOUCHABLE!



    63. 63

      Love this. How ’bout some Gaga?



    64. 64

      i think it sux.. shouldnt remake something that was great to begin with…



    65. 65

      sucks.



    66. 66

      Re: o.p.i. – no, he shouldn't. he forces terrible music on us. they're not performers like MJ, they're attention whores. Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, all of them.
      MJ at least had class. He never went around with what amounts to a "LOOK AT ME." sign plastered too him. He did his thing and that was that.
      music died a little the day Perez announced he was getting his own record label. :(



    67. 67

      well. is not totally horrible but I think Mj is a god and I think is good that you try to offer something new but thats all it is just new…congrats!



    68. 68

      Badass!



    69. 69

      Loves it!!!



    70. 70

      Are you crazy that is not a good remix - and you are going to have a record label, why would anyone give you a record label. fuck off perez you fat ugly fuck REST IN PEACE MJ I MISS YOU

      are you kidding me?
      this must be some sort of promotion for money, because this remix is probably one of the shittest i've ever heard

    80. opkl says – reply to this


      80

      only good dance remix of MJ's tracks is the "Rock With You" freemasons remix



    81. 81

      originals are always the best
      but its ok



    82. 82

      Re: seriouslycgi – I totally agree. I can't say it's good or bad because it sounds the same except for a few extra sounds thrown in.

      look at that pic. in one pic this man can elicit the emotion of entertainment in one photo. most artists can't do that with all their albums and performances **cough rhianna** combined. he gives us excitement and fabulousness in one picture. love u mj.

    86. 86

      Re: blahblah12 – ummmm… that is Michael Jackson singing in the new version above!



    92. 92

      and sorry, I do need to clear this up, it's not a remix, it's a remake… the remix I am sure would be more clubby… anwyay, thanks for the comments, good and bad… opinion is important. In fact the more varied the better.



    93. 93

      I LOVE MICHAEL JACKSON*** AND THE BEATLES*** AND ELVIS*** AND CURT COBAIN** AND FREDDIE MERCURY ** YOU KNOW WHY??? BECAUSE THEY ALL DID SOMETHING DIFFERENT TO MUSIC. AND THEY WERE FIRST AT EVERYTHING** AND THEY CANT BE REPLACED BY NOONEE.**MICHAEL JACKSON WAS DIFFERENT NOONE DID WHAT HE DID BEFORE HIM..THEY TRY AFTER HIM BUT FAIL…THE BEATLES WERE DIFFERENT THATS WHY PEOPLE GET ANGRY WEN THEY COMPARE THE JONAS SISTERS TO THE BEATLES ..BECAUSE PEOPLE KNOW NOONE CAN EVER BE LIKE THEM..ELVIS WAS DIFFERENT HE WAS THE FIRST WHITE GUY TO EVER DO WHAT HE DID AND HE SUCCEEDED AND CREATED ROCK N ROLL.CURT COBAIN WAS DIFFERENT BECAUSE HE STARTED GRUNDGE AND CREATED A TOTALLY DIFFERENT SOUND OF MUSIC..FREDDIE MERCURY WAS DIFFERENT BECAUSE OF HIS STAGE APPEARANCE ,,HIS SOUND,etc..!!!

      THE REASON WHY I SAY ALL OF THAT IS BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE COMPARING MICHAEL JACKSON THE BEATLES ,ELVIS etc.! BUT YOU CANT COMPARE NONE OF THEM TO EACHOTHER!
      THERE ALLL LEGENDS! NOONE WILL BE LIEK THEM!



    94. 94

      Re: ArmandDeluxe – I KNOWWW!!! BUT I MEANT THEY CANT REMAKE IT OR SING IT BETTER THAN HIM BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL WILL ALWAYS BE BETTER ! NO MATTER HOW GREAT THE REMIX'S SOUND!
