Until I was like 15 or so and heard this on the radio I thought this was how Michael Jackson sounded, and I fuckin love it!This is how my cousin first showed it to me and he never bothered to tell me they were supposed to be played at 45 XD
Nice to see someone hears this the way I do. I just posted after finding this and then scrolled down to find you'd come to the same conclusion 3 years ago.
It still sounds so good when slowed down fidelity-wise. That’s what I love about vinyl, because it’s completely analogue you can slow it down without loss of audio quality.
I can only imagine some teenagers back in 1982 taking their single of Billie Jean and slowed it down on the record player and just laughing hysterically
Did you know that if you lower the tone and speed of Michael Jackson, he continues to sing with a black voice ??? The difference is that he looks more like Marvin Gaye than Michael Jackson. 12 RPM less and the song even looks like soul.
![Journey - Don't Stop Believin' [Slowed 25% to 33 1/3 RPM]](/img/n.gif)
We are all here just after we finished listening to Jolene 33 rpm
Damn, you got me.
Me too
I also rick rolled myself at 78 RPM
No, I heard the Pepsi jingle at 100/135 speed
Damnit boys he got me
1.25x is basically true tempo with Deep voice Michael. Pretty dope. Lol
Never thought of that. Thanks for that! :)
Great discovery!
this is amazing 🔥
🫥😂
thanks for that!
That baseline is 33% more funky.
Yes.
Damn right
california236 yep!
so Dolly Parton sounds like a black dude when slowed down
and so does Michael Jackson apparently
*wooosh*
You sir, are today's winner. Thank you.
Savage
Not bad.
Fuck man... +1 to you, you savage!
Jolene brought me here (I'm addicted to songs 33rpmed now)
the 60fps really does it justice
🤣🤣🤣
I’m imagining Terry Crews singing lol
Lol
100% agree.
Terry is way more in touch with his feminine side then I thought he was.
best comment hahaha
Laken Antonio 😂😂😂

3:15 this version shows off his incredible vocal control. Makes me appreciate both versions more
This is far better than i expected, not knowing it's slowed down this could pass as a remake.
A cheap remake indeed.
Micheal Jackson is rolling over in his grave...slowly.
At 33rpm
Is this what Barry white sounds like before he hit puberty.. lol jk since I've heard Jolene at 33rpm I can't help but to find more songs slowed down..
😂
Same here. It's my new affliction.
Same..so far this one and "take on me" are my favorites
@@lewiswood9286 there's a playlist of this kind of stuff: th-cam.com/video/CMrfM711vXI/w-d-xo.html&start_radio=1
natokaitado Wai-
Great cover by Billy ocean

Best way ever to listen Michael Jackson
From pop to R&B,..actually like it way better then the original!

You sound just like my dad when you talk this passionately about vinyl. 😂
The world needs this stuff, thank you.
The world needs people that needs this stuff, thank you!
been listening to it like this in Houston Texas for decades.
the heeeEEEE gets me every time when its slowed
Read this comment right on queue
@@dannyjones1942 love it when that happens
Listening to Michael McJackson here.
Just like being on shrooms and listening to the Chipmunks.
Gunna have to give that a shot
Topher Knows 😂😂
If youve not tried it Chipmunks 16 rpm..
He sounds bluesy, even a bit of Michael McDonald in that tone. Sounds darker than his skin. I like it
Wow...This sounds SO much better.
Oh the joys of TH-cam’s playback speed spawning whole genres and providing endless entertainment for stoners
This is SMOKING HOT!!
At 1.25x speed it sounds better than this and the original
But then it wouldn't be 33 bpm :(

Thank you for this comment
OmarSaletovicPrins 1.5 even better
@@niukid89 1.5 sounds like Cher
4:40 to 5:00 is so dope
King Lucy HEE he hueeee
Sounds like the Law and Order guitar.
So much soul out of this
**solemnly hee hees**
I didn’t know Barry White covered this song.
does anyone have recommendations for singers/songs similar to this one in style? i am unironically obsessed with this right now and need more
I didn't know Shaq sang Billie Jean!
It's like Teddy Pendergrass doing a cover!
Is this the guy who sings Caribbean Queen?
Weathered Memories 😂 hilarious
Is this V A P O R W A V E ?
What even is vaporwave I'm too old
NO FUCK OFF WITH THAT VAPORWAVE SHIT

This is what it sounds like if you are a dog.
Eat Chicken how do you know you're not;)?
Kevin Russell holy shit
It sounds more like Barry White than Michael Jackson.
Sounds like something Sade would sing...smooooothhh
Mike McDonald?
Especially the chorus!
Good reference point for how fast the original Jolene is.
Haunting. Closer to what he would have sounded like if ...... Now I want to hear it at 16rmp.
Try watching without sound
No
Try sounding without watch
God damn! Why is there not a commercial release of this?!?
Holy fuck this is golden!
damn good!
6:33 isn't too far off the runtime of the extended version
Michael finally hit puberty!!
Bloody amazing.Thanks for the share :)
nice...MJ sounds great...Midas touch
This is fucking NASTY! it's like a 90's R&B cover. I love it.
>plays at 1.5x
>wat
Soulful!
Since when did Michael Jackson make Soulful slowjamz
Everything hit harder slowed that rhythm is nasty
Played at 1.25x speed is MJ after puberty hits
dope
Aka The Nina Simone version
pretty good
Listen in 1.25x
You've heard of Vapourwave... This is Michaelwave!
* Moonman/ TikTok
The drums remind of me Ice Cube's You Know How We Do It
it sounds like satans pop voice
Israel Mata hahaha for real. the Satan off southpark
yea or the krampus from american dad
Israel Mata or even CeeLo Green as the hot tub lol
Israel Mata well when your from hell, you gotta have a dream..you know what I'm sayin?
So this is what MJ would've sounded like as a baritone!
1.25 speed sounds a whole lot better
The gruv on this . .
a e s t h e t i c
I've listened to a few of these now; the really good singers' voices still resonate nicely at a different pitch. Madonna not so much.
Shit...now this is perfect pitch for me....
OMG, play it at .25X speed. It sounds like it's going to shatter the fabric of reality and open a portal into a different dimension. Lol
If you play it at 1.25X speed, it sounds like Idris Elba's cover of Billie Jean.
if you not feeling this I wish God give you a soul a good soul at that
Groovy!
Play this back at 1.35x speed for the original tempo
Did you know that if you lower the tone and speed of Michael Jackson, he continues to sing with a black voice ???
The difference is that he looks more like Marvin Gaye than Michael Jackson. 12 RPM less and the song even looks like soul.
Play back speed, 1.25... nice
sounds fine with the right weed
That's what happens when you forget to set the jukebox speed to play American 7-inch vinyl! ;-)
"CHEEKU CHA CHA cha"
It puts the needle on the record!!!!!
Who in the hellnwould enjoy this slowed down?
Drunk as I am right now, this how it sounds normal.
Wait, this is slowed down? Sounds like I need to go lay down and sleep it off.
Michael Jackson finally sounds like a black man here.
My dog was chilling in my lap. Singing started and she ran away.
Apparently he had a low spoken voice when he was in private.
1:43
If biggie ever sang micheal Jackson
So, the chid is not Johnny Gill's son either?
before the bass kicked in at the beginning my brain started playing the bass in Superstition... Huh
It’s like they invented vapor wave before vapor wave existed
Anyone else watching this on 1.5 playback speed
This one's kinda creepy 😨
Intro sounds like Devil's Dance by Metallica till the synth hits
N O T M Y L O V E R : ' (
This is what happens when Teddy Pendergrass, Billy Ocean, and Dr. Dre create a song togther.
If Isaac Hayes covered Billie Jean
The Temptations
put a 2 speed its funny
dont ask me why i think about Kobe because it just happened. sadness.
This isn’t even close to being accurate. Double the playback speed and you’ll hear what I’m talking about.
audio is a bit clipped but its cool
*it's (not possessive)
