Not sure what I liked more. The fact that Michael J Fox could actually shred pretty good or that music legend Huey Lewis was so noticeably supportive and proud of him during the practices.
I love seeing Huey’s actual reaction to Michael playing the guitar. It seems he had great appreciation for how well Michael was playing his song. Quite the contrast from the character Huey played.
I love that Huey really seemed generally impressed and tickled at Michael's accuracy and insistence on getting it right and not just miming like an idiot like so many Hollywooders. I love that scene so much more as a guitar player, that was genuine!
He doesn't play, but he's acting fantastically. Even in Johnny B Goode I know thats wrong what he is playing, but it looks damn right. He plays the right rhythm.
Thats wrong, he was finger synching the whole song to the music. The visual editing may have been off but Michael could play the whole song if he wanted to. Thats also him playing at the dance auditions.
Before the scourge of the Internet. I miss dialing into BBSs. The Information Age was very short lived and quickly gave way to the Misinformation Age; and now the Echo Age.
@@springbloom5940 “Scourge of the Internet”... you can say that again, particularly mobile tech which oversaturated everything and bastardized information.
in the story Marty is a fan of Huey Lewis, so he was playing for the test at school. In the second film, in that shark ologram scene, in the original script, it was for Marty to see a Huey Lewis show and his band playing, and he was amazed, thinking he was watching his idols up close, and when Huey Lewis finished touching, Marty was approaching to compress him, but they disappeared, since it was a plot of them, Marty was disappointed. They should have kept this scene from that shark trying to devour Marty and he'd be screaming like an idiot in the middle of the street
Love this behind the scenes stuff with Huey. In this and every other thing I've seen him in, he seems totally free of ego. He's a huge music fan and loves to support other bands too. Total class act.
Michael J. Fox and "Back to the Future" brought magic to the world, made us conscious on how little actions and steps taken in life in the right moment will lead us to a destiny we create. I heard on an interview that he is trying to find answers about what has happened to him, and I deeply feel that there is a great teaching, a "Maestro" speaking to him beyond what he suffers physically. I believe still has the chance to create his destiny in good health by listening to what has happened to him and by saying the right words. Just finished watching the saga (again!), totally touched by its beauty and its magic. I believe in "The Power of Love"🎸💛
@@FreddieHg37 Steve Doocy on bass, Pete Hegseth on drums, Brian Kilmeade on lead, Sean Hannity on B3, and The Five brass section. Huey Lewis would probably slit his wrists before being a front man for that crew.
He isn't playing here for real though. At 0:50 look closely at his right hand. He isn't picking the notes (that very distinct sound is made by pinch harmonics, which require digging into the strings with hard picking, and he isn't picking at all). That's why they filmed from behind him, it was the real musician playing. Kinda weird footage actually, like part of trying to create some additional star aura for him. No doubt he could play somewhat at 0:33 it could be actually him, but at 0:50 it just isn't him soloing
I love the fact that Huey said to Robert that he was told, when he was in Marty's position, that he was 'too darn loud,' at an audition and maybe he should say that? Robert said yes and it turned out to be one of the most iconic lines in the films next to 'where we're going, we don't need roads,' which was also off script!
Jay McD surely lots of celebrities have bad attitude, i agree with you here. But it's just simply impolite for you to talk like this about passed away man, that's what i wanted to say. Don't you think so?
holy shit, i had no idea he was actually playing. I used to bomb hills on a flat nose nash with levi's jacket, walkman and the BTTF soundtrack. And certainly made me want to play guitar even more. BTTF got so many kids into guitar and skateboarding. I can't think of any mainstream movie that did more for skateboarding, you could mention thrashin or gleaming the cube but they both came out later when skateboarding was already big and not as many people watched them.
@The Saint nah scenes like these in movies are generally always overdubbed so they can get the sound mixing perfect. Even full blown musicians overdub themselves in a studio for movie scenes. They're just hired to mime convincingly. An example would be the Ramones in Rock N Roll Highschool they played the live show but it was overdubbed for the film so they could get a perfect sound mix. Recording a live show causes a lot of distortion and makes it difficult to work with plus they can't edit each instrument individually.

Well dang! Just seeing this now, in 2021, and this is sooooo coool!! Never knew Michael J. Fox was actually playing that... legit. Never had a clue. So cool - and so is the video in general. A piece of Americana. That was a great movie, and a great time!
I love how funny and ironic it is that Huey Lewis is the guy that tells them to stop, they’re “just too darn loud.” When it’s his own song! This was a brilliant cameo appearance.
You realize how many guitar players started playing guitar because of this movie? Marty McFly was definitely an influential guitar player although not much is written about it.
Exactly. They fired him for being way too serious and having no comedic timing. Have to wonder if they even filmed this scene with him before MJF came aboard?
Ok so am I the ONLY person who hasn't realised until 2022 the Michael was ACTUALLY playing the guitar and that Huey Lewis had a cameo in the film whilst they played HIS song ??? 😂
Nope. I first saw Back To The Future in 1986 when it first went to video. I was only 4. Now I’m also 43 in 2024. I did not know that Michael J. Fox actually played.
This whole time I thought he was just miming, every article ever said so. This is the first time I ever saw this, how did I miss this for nearly 40 years?
Yep, I spotted that guitar too! I also still have a red one. I got in '86 when I was 16 years old, and still play it proudly today. Did you notice that the back of his guitar neck was finished in black? Our Roadstar 2 models have unfinished necks.
@@studiobcproductions I purchased a white one with black pick guard and a sealed wood-grain neck back in 86 as well. I past it onto my son who still plays it today.
Вот это я понимаю подход к созданию фильма! Талант виден сразу же! Люди даже в мелочах старались сделать великолепно и собственно по итогу мы и имеем шедевр!
My father lived down the street from where Hilldale was in the second and third film was back in 1989 he saw the third film being filmed during the scene with the drag race at the end of the third film he has some pictures
@@timetheory84 I thought of Back to the Future when I bought my first skateboard.. also when I started playing guitar. I guess I thought the Marty character was really cool.. still do.
It was dubbed in, but it doesn't change the fact that MJF learned to play this part note for note. What you hear in the movie was a full track recorded in the studio but MJF mimed the hell out of it.
You guys want to see MJF in another movie where he really plays (and sings) check out "Light Of Day (1987)." Joan Jett co-stars as his sister and they play in a band together. Party on, dude.
Not sure what I liked more. The fact that Michael J Fox could actually shred pretty good or that music legend Huey Lewis was so noticeably supportive and proud of him during the practices.
Huey is like that tbh. A great guy that's as down-to-earth as a celeb can get
Guys, anybody pls I want this full music guitar plays.... Guitar 🎸
They’re both immaculate things to see 😂
And this is AFTER Eric Stoltz was fired, and they had to reshoot a ton of the film. Michael was barely getting any sleep and still gave 110%.
He didn't play any of it he was miming
I love seeing Huey’s actual reaction to Michael playing the guitar. It seems he had great appreciation for how well Michael was playing his song. Quite the contrast from the character Huey played.
Nice to see, he actual can play guitar...
Hes not playing hes miming
Didn't realize Michael J Fox was actually playing! Makes me love this movie even more
No...He has NOT played...
Its for marketing purposes and to add some spice to the movie
But still he was just darn too loud. Lols XD
He was miming. The guitar coach was helping him make it look more realistic.
Boom! Legend, one of the greatest actors in the 80s. Also enjoyed his sitcoms!
@@marshallmathers2740 Yes but he could obviously play a barre chord. They're really hard if you've never played before.
Didn't realise Michael J Fox was actually playing that Van Halen style lead on Power of Love. Damn Cool Dude!
He's syncing to playback here. Just doing it really well, because he's a guitarist.
@DaveDexterMusic did you even watch the video? He's actually playing at 00:30
he wasn't

Oh my goodness. Now I realized how much love and efforts he gave for that film. A legend. Must absolutely watch all the three parts again.
I cracked up like hell the first time I saw this. Huey Lewis himself making a cameo, trashing his own song, LOL
Nice avatar...haha
I never realized that was him until watching this.
That's what he wanted. If the movie bombed he didn't want to be associated with it.
The guy who is sitting next to him in the actual scene is Eric Stolz who was originally cast as Marty
You’re just too darn loud
I like how Huey is just hanging out enjoying Michael's guitar playing... Dude was genuinely thrilled

you don't need to dig in to get good harmonics, you just need to pick and dampen the string a bit with your thumb.

Amazing, Michael really played the guitar, that's why music sounds so alive in that scene.
It would have been better if they let him sing and play at the dance scenes.

I was so sure that music was dubbed in. To my suprise Micheal J Fox was actually playing and playing very well.
It was dubbed in, but it doesn't change the fact that MJF learned to play this part note for note. What you hear in the movie was a full track recorded in the studio but MJF mimed the hell out of it.
Awesome footage

That one's hard to find...I always wanted to see it because I'm a Paul Schrader fan.
