People of the newer generations might start to doubt that MJ was the most popular person in the WORLD, but we will never forget. This man was a legend, he created history with every video, every song, every concert.
I love this comment !! Though it’s a saddening realization. I think about this often . I get on tiktok and there’s a video of the wembley stadium 87 tour where people were bawling their eyes out by the sight of Michael, stretchers carrying away so many who fainted from trying to get close and the overwhelming shook of seeing him in person, yet the show barely started. Growing up with Michael, every music video release premiere was a family gathering in front of the tv with popcorn! His infamous looks from Thriller era changed the fashion industry overnight. everything he did, every appearance was so huge! artists imitating or dressing like him was so common it wasn’t criticized much. A magical time in music. He changed the trajectory of the world in so many categories. No smartphones or advanced social media, but hundreds of thousands could tell you what day his new album was going to be in out stores. Release days outside of audio stores looked like Black Friday waiting lines. I want the newer generations to comprehend this as he was the first and last. You got me hyped up I need to go listen to Dirty Diana now. 😂❤️
Well yes! If you watch any behind the scenes of his "music videos" you would see that calling them videos is taboo. Michael calls them short films and prefers everyone else to call them that too. They are masterpieces!
@@Raine_Raine - Yes, indeed! My favourite is "Remember the Time" followed closely by MJ's "Ghosts" movie (33 min version). The music movie that makes me laugh the hardest is "Speed Demon" because of the claymation & live action in it. Michael is a genius for sure!
Okay so this was practically Broadway in the form of a music video. A short film or play and I LOVED EVERY minute of it. This film will FOREVER be the GREATEST of ALL TIME AND WILL NEVER BE TOPPED BY ANY OTHER
I was not a Michael Jackson fan, but when Smooth Criminal came out, i couldn't stop watching. Dancing, costumes, make-up and story telling is superb. Everyone brought their best when this was filmed. Some of the best dance in human history.
Incredibly, some of his live shows showed case his real skills. The man sure used to put a LOT of time in to making his music more than just a song, it was an experience. Also, a lot of his music was very uplifting and had great messaging. I liked his music, but it's all kind of hard for me to separate the man from the allegations. zoinks.
@@nerdjournalHe didn’t do that crap, he was found innocent, and taken advantage of. Yes, found innocent, his trial was an absolute joke and he was under heavy investigative scrutiny for over a decade and was finally acquitted.
@@freebandz4332 I get to make up my mind about who I think is innocent and not. Otherwise, you better not DARE say OJ Simpson was guilty. By your standard, no person wrongfully convicted could EVER be deemed innocent. See as a person with my own opinions I am allowed to disagree. Which I don't know if you are stupid or just want to argue. I didn't say he was guilty, I said it was hard to separate the artist from the allegations. Which doesn't mean I think he is guilty, it means I think it's hard to actually disregard the multiple allegations, it doesn't mean I believe them or think he should have been punished. Which is literally my prerogative. So before you go trying to tell people how they are allowed to think. Make sure the person you are telling, isn't someone who has a brain. Because the only people you can tell how to think, are the people without one.
Fun fact Micheal Jackson use to call his music videos Short video films. This is why he is the king of pop. He treated his music videos as if they were films. Micheal truely was the video star that killed the radio star.
MJackson is so ICONIC in every way. The choreography is way ahead of its time. I remember this watching it when I just a kid keep on replaying the BETAMAX player until the tape got broken.The one and only KING of POP.
Me toooo. Unrelated but i'm a huge Prince fan as well and I don't think Prince ever captured something that electric in a video. That kind of pure tension release and explosion of just badassness. I think the comparisons are done when we think of moments like this
when i was younger i used to mute the weird groaning/moaning scene when my parents were around lol. but dang i've never realized how great it was, the buildup is so good
@@ericfernandez2138 wdym what does this have to do with the estate they don’t release shit or do anything with mj stuff and these people at home did more Than the estate has or will ever do
@@ericfernandez2138 first of all it is estate and the estate are the people that control all of his stuff for release copyright and all that other stuff so it is 100% there responsibility to do all this stuff I mean is fans would still do this stuff anyway but still the estate should still release more stuff
"Smooth Criminal by Michael Jackson is a thrilling song that tells the story of a mysterious and elusive figure "Annie",who is being pursued by the protagonist. The lyrics describe the protagonist's determination to catch Annie and bring her to justice for her criminal activities. The song is known for it's infectious rhythm,captivating melody, and Jackson's signature vocal style.It's also famous for its iconic music video featuring gravity-defying lean ,which has become one of his most memorable dance moves. "Smooth Criminal" is a standout track from Jacksons "Bad" album and remains a fan favorite.
It's a shame that fans makes better job with enhancing MJ's legacy for future generations than Estate is doing. Don't get me wrong, you guys did incredible work but the Estate should be doing it. Just as many other projects. Nevertheless it's wonderful to see that MJ will never die. He truly loved his fans and for sure now he is so proud of them. God bless you guys ✌️
@@ouss4real Film can be scanned into HD and even 4K, my guy. They did it with the entirety of Star Trek and The Next Generation, Friends, Seinfeld, but also movies from Laurel and Hardy, Charlie Chaplin and so on. If it's shot on film, it can be rescanned in HD and beyond. ^_^
@@ouss4real They certainly can. As mentioned in the comments above mine. Maybe they don't do it yet because of a question of expected profits from the releases or maybe it can be a legal question, purely a question of legal rights. As in the case of The Beatles's video material. There is a lot of filmed material that can be restored to a really exorbitant quality but they have decided not to do it because they can't yet define who owns the rights.
MJ was such an icon. The best performer ever. His videos weren't just videos. They were mini movies that provided a theatrical experience. He was simply a perfectonist and was poetry in motion.
This was in huge parts also why i became a fan of his works. Because i just loved how great his music worked in the movie format and to me it's hard to separate both. His music and motion pictures simply go hand in hand as one fusion.
The best section in this song is when the song just blasts to the main riff after a long instrumental break with gospel-like atmosphere. MJ would say that was to capture the whole visceral mood of all the frustrations, angst, tensions of this world and then blasting it out when the song kind of restarts again. Pure brilliance! An extraordinary artist who also created a visual masterpiece.
He was an absolute legend in every sense. People today forget how huge of a popstar he was. Ahead of the times he rose to this before the internet was even a thing. That's real star power not these internet famous people who were born yesterday.
Holy F******* this is INCREDIBLE!!!! I have been watching / listening to this short film for over 30+ years and this is the most cleanest, sharpest …. I just dont even have the words. The audio alone!!!!!!! I love how outdoors sounds like outdoors. The added touch of crickets - genius. How the music sounds as if you were listening from outside in… The extra added vocals on MJ were masterfully executed and placed in the right places (Thank you). The visuals.. Ugh Jesus take the wheel… 🔥👍🏽 outstanding.
This is the best example to showcase how the fans are the ones who have been doing an actual proper job in taking care of MJs legacy. Looks gorgeous, guys. Thanks!
At 8:16, you can just see the tops of the silver bolts in the floor near the feet of the two dancers to the immediate left and right of MJ and this is how they performed that massive lean over section, as their shoes were latched onto the bolts, anchoring them to the floor. Brilliantly done !!
The Choreography alone in this video must have been crazy. I wasn't crazy myself, but I was a fan of his music. He was a visionary, well ahead of his time. May he Rest in Peace. I thank you for making this, and preserving his musical, and dance history. Fantastic job. Update; Thanks much for the likes. This was my first, or second favorite song of his. Hands down. Just know that I've been coming back to this many times to get my MJ Fix. Best version of Smooth Criminal, End of story.
Understated Fact: At 7:56, in this video, Michael does what is probably his (and the world's) smoothest moonwalk ever. And aaah the way he swaps backup dancers at 7:57???? Simply Legendary.
I’ve been thinking that for the longest! It’s just so damn SMOOTH the way he just moonwalks into the switch of the dancers Then the synergy between him and the dancers after the lean 8:09 all the way until the circle walk 8:23 (I don’t know what it is😂) SO CLEANNNNNN
Por favor seamos honestos estamos en pleno 2023 y esta canción todavía eriza la piel es increíble Michael Jackson es el artista más grande que existe no solo del pop del género musical en general este hombre es increíble la música de este hombre es como el vino
Totalmente en 2024 vi el musical de mj en Hollywood. Y la gente reaccionaba a un actor que hacia de Michael. Eso es la magic que dejo este hombre inegualable
This is part of the MJ music movie. The CGI later on where he becomes a robot cost millions of dollars and was the best computer rendering you could buy at the time. The budget for the whole movie was tens of millions of dollars but he got every penny’s worth. The dancing and choreography here is astounding and not seen anything alike since then.
I have been a Michael Jackson fan for nearly my entire life and I have never seen ‘smooth criminal’ this clearly ever, I noticed things in the short video that I haven’t noticed in over 30 years. I am mesmerised
I've watched this video maybe 20x since this 4k version has been released and I still can't grasp the intricate dance sequences. This man was a marvel to behold and Thank You for uploading this.
There will always be another Drake, another Taylor Swift, another singer/rapper to represent ones generation. But there will never be another one of this man. There will never be another King of Pop.
I can not.. I've been obsessed with this video for 2 days now, and it's just a masterpiece, really. This musical film makes me feel joy. Thanks to the team for this real 4k! Dear Michael, this world needed you 🙏🏻💙
for me this clip is really a masterpiece, between the decoration, the characters, the camera plan, the systems used, all dancers , all these ideas at that time it's incredible

MJ was in another level of creativity and performing. Compare to his peers at that time. Today's performers are not even in close to his Greatness. It will probably be decades before people see another genius & talent las MJ was. But most likely..there will never anyone that can match what He did. We miss MJ so much. May He Eternally Rest be in Peace.
The creativity and storytelling MJ put in his songs and videos are just so inspiring. Literally in awe, because nowadays people do it to be likable or to just make a catchy hook but the adventure and message MJ pull you through, just beyond legendary.
This is UNBELIEVABLE!! I downloaded it and all I can say is WOW! The incredible visual quality, the insane audio remaster, WELL DONE! BS the estate can't do anything like this! You just did and knocked it out of the park!!!!
Pela granulação perceptível na imagem, é bem provável que ele tenha tido acesso ao rolo do filme original ou a um vídeo de alta definição extraído do mesmo. Ao final, a comparação parece ter sido feita entre este vídeo de alta definição e o vídeo "oficial" do Canal Michael Jackson, que está em 480p.
The fact this man gets compared to anyone shows how undeserving the world was of him...some things are just common sense, like innocence! Hope this man gets his justice one way or another
Increíble, la coreografía, la calidad del vídeo, obvio Michael tiene una voz increíble. La música. Hoy en día no tenemos videos de esa calidad. Arte definitivamente arte
The ending reminds me of the demo version found in one of his rare and obscure rehearsal videos dated 1986. Not only this video looks stunning in 4K, but you even managed to retain some of the grains in this video, just like some of the 4K rescans of Star Wars I've seen! Add to that the remix of the sound from scratch which makes this look like a massive live rehearsal, impressive work I must say!
As a fan of nearly 50 plus years of Michael, I've got to say I'm so proud of you for what you've done to this masterclass of art and you've rejuvenated it. Hats off to you
I cried and I'm still crying after seeing this, while typing this comment. I wanted you to know that you guys are really really talented, you did a great job and made my day... ♥️ Michael is so proud of you... ♥️♥️♥️ You are literally the best! 😭😭♥️♥️
He wanted to let the world know something and he did it.He informed us through his songs before anything happened in the future..Before comes social media Michael shaked the world,after Michael dies(Michael fans) will shake the social media in all over the world..he deserves billions of views...if he is alive all TH-cam records will be under his hands,no any other songs comes closer to his records..we have to keep his songs on high level..(MJ)watching us from heaven..🙌🏿(1958 - 2009)🙌🏿..
Imagine if prime MJ (my opinion anything between 1983-1989) was in his prime in this day and age with all the technology? Imagine what a prime Michael Jackson could have created in 2022. Crazy. Having said that, its 2022, this video was 1988 and I’ve still never seen a better video even nowadays. King 👑

A masterpiece. Greatest Choreography I’ve ever seen. Greatest music video I’ve ever seen. When it builds and builds and builds when it’s silent saying Annie are you ok, then it explodes back into song. It gives me goosebumps. Incredible artistry.
This is an absolutely phenomenal remaster - thank you. I was 14 and already a fan when this video came out but when it saw a clip I remember running upstairs and leaping around my room! I went from a casual fan to being obsessed! It was just on another level. I’d never seen anything so cool in my life. Sadly I had no idea how to buy concert tickets at that age so missed out on the Bad tour and had to wait until the Dangerous tour to see him live (three times!) and twice on the History tour. Thank you Michael - we miss you.
This is beautiful. I'm speechless as to how you and Azura took a legendary short film and made it just a little bit better hence making it a masterpiece.
Oh no! Can't believe you didn't include the sound of the clap when MJ high 5s himself at 4:03! Always been my favourite part of the video. Nonetheless, great work buddy
I remember when I watched this every day in my old Michael Jackson History VHS and looking for evety detail, like that the white pool ball doesnt bounce on the edge of the table, but it floats mid travel, or that the pool cue is already broken before the dude actually breaks it. MJ videos are little movies.
I have to laugh when ppl compare Drake, Beyonce or Taylor Swift to MJ😂 MJ was lightyears ahead of all the artists existing!
😂😂😂😂👏👏👏👏👏👏
number 1 Michael Jackson
number 2 Other
Do you have any idea what a fuckin lightyear is? He was about 10 years ahead.

Totalmente en 2024 vi el musical de mj en Hollywood. Y la gente reaccionaba a un actor que hacia de Michael. Eso es la magic que dejo este hombre inegualable
Music, dance and filming: undoubtedly a masterpiece, the TOP PERFORMANCE of the entartainment industry
This is part of the MJ music movie. The CGI later on where he becomes a robot cost millions of dollars and was the best computer rendering you could buy at the time. The budget for the whole movie was tens of millions of dollars but he got every penny’s worth. The dancing and choreography here is astounding and not seen anything alike since then.
I have been a Michael Jackson fan for nearly my entire life and I have never seen ‘smooth criminal’ this clearly ever, I noticed things in the short video that I haven’t noticed in over 30 years. I am mesmerised
Oh to have been on that set 😍 to have been one his dancers 👯🎶
Smooth Criminal is the greatest music video ever made. Bite me.
In 4k it shows how the music video ages so well with over 25 years passing us showing mj was a true visionary talented and way ahead of his time
I watched this version of the video on VHS hundreds of times as a child, but I never really WATCHED it until now. Wow wow wow.
Smooth Criminal was ahead of it's time.
MJ really set the bar high.
Funny - looks like a lot of 1940s musicals to me

Facts
Michael Jackson não fazia por dinheiro...e sim por arte...por prazer... satisfação...coisa natural....por isso foi o melhor... indiscutível.
A mi criterio, el mejor de todos los videoclips que hizo Michael Jackson. Es simplemente una obra de arte.
Thriller marcó un antes y un después, pero Smooth Criminal sencillamente es lo mejor que hizo MJ en cuestión de videos musicales se refiere.
@@GuillermoDelgado97 En eso tienes toda la razón!
Fact !
Los pasos michael, la combinación de sonidos fusion de pasos y voz cantando es lo mejor me emociono cuando veo a micheal lloro de emoción
4:17 my favorite part. the angle the spin the moves.. just perfection
8:13 greatest performer in history
7:35 never ceases to give me chills, absolutely incredible
Same...🙌
I've watched this video maybe 20x since this 4k version has been released and I still can't grasp the intricate dance sequences. This man was a marvel to behold and Thank You for uploading this.
Do you call that dancing?

There will always be another Drake, another Taylor Swift, another singer/rapper to represent ones generation. But there will never be another one of this man. There will never be another King of Pop.
WHAT JOB! PERFECT

WTF, O JhonTv, tendi foi nd
60fps would be perfect.
I was 300 like and that makes me happy
Yes
LOVED the added gunfire at the end! Always looked strange with him just pointing it haha. Amazing work!
Thank you! Was a very clever idea that was pitched in by Azura, and I'm glad he suggested such a cool idea! ~ R
Wait wdym in the official there's gunfire. Go look at the original and u will see :)
@@applehead7090 At the end, when he’s near the door
@@AshtonNanke oh right ok, sorry :)
@@MJJ4K I noticed the added effect! Really like it makes it less awkward from the original
I can not.. I've been obsessed with this video for 2 days now, and it's just a masterpiece, really. This musical film makes me feel joy. Thanks to the team for this real 4k!
Dear Michael, this world needed you 🙏🏻💙
Michael Jackson The White Archangel
for me this clip is really a masterpiece, between the decoration, the characters, the camera plan, the systems used, all dancers , all these ideas at that time it's incredible
8:00 I love this audio effect!
Though I don't like the Crash Cymbals sound, but It's the best version of Smooth Criminal on TH-cam!!

No one on Earth can do a great impersonation of Michael singing songs like smooth criminal. His harmonic distortions are just too unique.
omg ! HD yeahhhhh
tnx for amazing job🎉
This MV is my absolute favorite of all time ❤
Imagine writing your own music, being able to sing and dance like this all at the same time. Puts modern artists to shame.
There is noone like him. Noone.
Он легенда из легенд всей современности. Будь ты жив! Ты до сих пор был бы королём поп музыки! Царствие небесное!
令和の今見ても、というか今見てこそ凄さが伝わる。偉大な音楽
MJ was in another level of creativity and performing. Compare to his peers at that time. Today's performers are not even in close to his Greatness. It will probably be decades before people see another genius & talent las MJ was.
But most likely..there will never anyone that can match what He did. We miss MJ so much. May He Eternally Rest be in Peace.
The creativity and storytelling MJ put in his songs and videos are just so inspiring. Literally in awe, because nowadays people do it to be likable or to just make a catchy hook but the adventure and message MJ pull you through, just beyond legendary.
I have 'Moonwalker' on VHS. Played it to death. Thank you for restoring this fantastic piece of history. Awesome job!
😍😍😍😍😍
This is UNBELIEVABLE!! I downloaded it and all I can say is WOW! The incredible visual quality, the insane audio remaster, WELL DONE! BS the estate can't do anything like this! You just did and knocked it out of the park!!!!
They can but they choose not to
Michael was not just the greatest singer and dancer, he was a damn good actor. His music videos are short movies.
Smoooooooooooooth 4k video! Great Job! I like this one better than the original
Not any smoother than ur pancakes chief
Me too!!
This is the Original
@@JamesBrown-zb9zn It’s the original but in amazing 4K

Es impresionante el trabajo que han logrado, amo a Michael Jackson. Realmente tiene un nivel de detalles increíble y el sonido también fantástico.
Siii..me encanta el sonido ...Impresionante 🔥
La calidad y el sonido más o menos
Antes se escuchaba muy fuerte
Pela granulação perceptível na imagem, é bem provável que ele tenha tido acesso ao rolo do filme original ou a um vídeo de alta definição extraído do mesmo. Ao final, a comparação parece ter sido feita entre este vídeo de alta definição e o vídeo "oficial" do Canal Michael Jackson, que está em 480p.
The fact this man gets compared to anyone shows how undeserving the world was of him...some things are just common sense, like innocence! Hope this man gets his justice one way or another
Justin bieber better

Absolutely agree 💯 Michael Jackson should never get compared to anyone
@@datfacenigga lmfao
Increíble, la coreografía, la calidad del vídeo, obvio Michael tiene una voz increíble. La música. Hoy en día no tenemos videos de esa calidad. Arte definitivamente arte
The ending reminds me of the demo version found in one of his rare and obscure rehearsal videos dated 1986. Not only this video looks stunning in 4K, but you even managed to retain some of the grains in this video, just like some of the 4K rescans of Star Wars I've seen! Add to that the remix of the sound from scratch which makes this look like a massive live rehearsal, impressive work I must say!
Good ears! I based this sound mix on the demo version. :D
That little section where he walks up to the pool table, catches the cue ball and spins gets me every time. So cool
world best ever made coreo.... nothing gonna ever beat this
I've loved this video since I was 3 or 4. I've always been an MJ fan and will always be. Thank you for posting this masterpiece
I loved the effects on the video, especially the demo vocals! 9:42
Goldy Music Video, dancing preformance & Song! MJ the GOAT 😎🔈🙏the 4k quality is flawless!
Rip micheal jackson king of pop 💯
It's 2021 and this is still one the coolest things you'll ever watch.
How you reached that video quality, is amazing!!!
As a fan of nearly 50 plus years of Michael, I've got to say I'm so proud of you for what you've done to this masterclass of art and you've rejuvenated it. Hats off to you
Still one of the best music videos ever made. Best part is I can see every verbose detail of MJ's original image. It's basically just pure art.
I cried and I'm still crying after seeing this, while typing this comment. I wanted you to know that you guys are really really talented, you did a great job and made my day... ♥️
Michael is so proud of you... ♥️♥️♥️
You are literally the best! 😭😭♥️♥️
Hola señorita estás preciosa lindos labios de caramelo saludos
"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened."
Truly 5 stars vdo.
Picture quality, sound quality Wowwwww
Thank you you guys so much🙏🙏🙏🙏
A masterpiece in choreography! No one has even come close to MJ. RIP
He wanted to let the world know something and he did it.He informed us through his songs before anything happened in the future..Before comes social media Michael shaked the world,after Michael dies(Michael fans) will shake the social media in all over the world..he deserves billions of views...if he is alive all TH-cam records will be under his hands,no any other songs comes closer to his records..we have to keep his songs on high level..(MJ)watching us from heaven..🙌🏿(1958 - 2009)🙌🏿..
Gives me goosebumps. I don’t think there will ever be another who put so much effort Into every aspect of his art . Goat
man this song still give me goose bumps after 30 years...
Imagine if prime MJ (my opinion anything between 1983-1989) was in his prime in this day and age with all the technology? Imagine what a prime Michael Jackson could have created in 2022. Crazy. Having said that, its 2022, this video was 1988 and I’ve still never seen a better video even nowadays. King 👑

Michael's videos are always made with a lot of money, a lot of choreography and a lot of thought!
And a lot of Love
My God; the choreography, the athleticism of these dancers is terrific. I haven’t watched these in decades and I’m still in awe! Fantastic!
Video: quality.
Audio: quality.
Channel: quality.
Mom I found the perfect channel!
A masterpiece. Greatest Choreography I’ve ever seen. Greatest music video I’ve ever seen.
When it builds and builds and builds when it’s silent saying Annie are you ok, then it explodes back into song. It gives me goosebumps. Incredible artistry.
I don't like dance videos but this is the best I've ever seen,MJ dancers are the best ever.
7:55...that moonwalk is just SO CLEAN LORD HAVE MERCY
is hypnotic, I can't stop watching it. Your work is absolutely great! Well done guys!
This is the reason why AI wont destroy us. The whole video is magic and cant be broken down into algorithms.
The best Smooth Criminal video I've seen, hell yeah!! The fans are doing the job and his legacy while the Estate doesn't.
Around 8:10, i cant really move away from this scene, he looks so good ugh !!!!!!!
This is an absolutely phenomenal remaster - thank you. I was 14 and already a fan when this video came out but when it saw a clip I remember running upstairs and leaping around my room! I went from a casual fan to being obsessed! It was just on another level. I’d never seen anything so cool in my life. Sadly I had no idea how to buy concert tickets at that age so missed out on the Bad tour and had to wait until the Dangerous tour to see him live (three times!) and twice on the History tour. Thank you Michael - we miss you.
THIS song and man other MJ sings will never get old or ever irrelevant, they’re timeless thank you Michael ❤️❤️❤️
This is beautiful. I'm speechless as to how you and Azura took a legendary short film and made it just a little bit better hence making it a masterpiece.
This is simply THE BEST video clip on history of music and you have just improved!!! FOREVER Thanks!!!
Watching this in HDR (thanks to the RTX Video HDR) was a real treat! You did an amazing job :D
Oh no! Can't believe you didn't include the sound of the clap when MJ high 5s himself at 4:03! Always been my favourite part of the video. Nonetheless, great work buddy
I remember when I watched this every day in my old Michael Jackson History VHS and looking for evety detail, like that the white pool ball doesnt bounce on the edge of the table, but it floats mid travel, or that the pool cue is already broken before the dude actually breaks it. MJ videos are little movies.
this was part of a movie btw
So is nobody is gonna talk abou how they edited the music at 8:29 so the music sounds like it's from inside the building?
It's amazing.
Yeah it was phenomenal..
Genius , Genius , Genius Love MJ
