This is a good amateur cover.
Love him or hate him...Jackson aside...this guy who performed and the guy who arranged all of the songs, did an awesome job!
YOUTUBE Description:
“This Guy is amazing.
A Yale University junior is making a name for himself by honoring the legendary Michael Jackson. Along with a buddy from school he’s created a video that appears to be an a Capella group performing a Michael Jackson medley.
You might be impressed with the vocals and even more impressed with the magical editing. Turns out they’re all the same guy! Connecticut student Sam Tsui is wearing the same jeans and sneakers but 3 different shirts.
He’s singing all the parts and his classmate, Kurt Schneider, standing off to the side did all the fancy editing to form the make believe group paying tribute to Jackson.”
