I guess i'm showing my age but he will always be Doogie Howser MD to me no matter how many other awesome roles and broadway shows he does he's just Doogie performing on broadway! lol
It doesn't like that. Just like the musicians don't get famous for performing the music in the track. Extras don't get fame performing in a movie. It's just the way it is.
I get a kick out of these comments of people criticizing Neil's performance, claiming it doesn't quite match up to Michael Jackson's level. Really? Are you kidding me people? Michael Jackson, easily one of history's most insanely talented and uniquely gifted performers, along with one of his most memorable performances.......and you're wondering why Neil Patrick Harris isn't matching MJ's intensity in this lip sync show? I think NPH is an extremely talented performer. But he's not MJ! And there are few people on this planet who could hope to match what Michael Jackson was able to do. Perhaps some of you people's expectation's are a little unreasonable.
Neil doesn't need to be MJ because no one can be MJ but he did a phenomenal job with this performance. I'm sure MJ would've been proud if he saw this. This is Neil's tribute to MJ and he knocked it outta the park

As much as i love this song, i prefer the other version because it rushes my blood more with the volume, the tempo, instruments, and the singing. That is why i keep both in hand.
My goodness, this video is the epitome of why I have adored Neil Patrick Harris for over half my life. As a young girl it was because of Doogie Howser. As an adult, I have highly respected everything that he does. He is such an amazing person through and through, and I absolutely love seeing him do what he does. This is my favorite lip sync battle now!
Yaaaaas! I'm so happy they were able to do the lean mechanism. I love that part of the song so much. Michael Jackson was a true original. Each one of his videos/ songs has something entirely unique to them.
I have to say, Neil Patrick Harris is one of my heroes. Damn awesome job. Also, I'm totally in love with Loverne Cox... prolly misspelled, but she's so amazing inside and out!
Great job! Incredible. I was even about to start crying. It always happens to me when I hear the song. It makes me wanna dance and cry at the same time.
Holy Jesus that's what I call tribute I am crying with love an Joy what a beautiful picture of love thank you no one will ever top that love you put in that because that's all I seen beautiful Mon aime what a blessing Chow
Ma'Halious Walker dude shut up like really just because he’s this ‘king of pop’ NPH really did a great job for a dude in his mid 40’s en its not disrespectful just leave if you’re gonna haye you’re bumming me out
Joost Ensink Everyone is praising him and saying “oh it was a good” simply because its NPH doing it and it simple favouritism.If it was a nobody doing this impersonation everyone would call it out on what it really was.A terrible performance.
Nobody can be Michael I get it. But he did a great job!!!! One of the best performances on the show period. I liked that he didn’t over do it nor underperform. He stuck to what he knew he can do. And nailed some poses. And honestly That works!
I'M Brazil! and have Michael is Rodrigo Teaser. I love very good it's performance more beautiful. Thank you for keeping the memory of Michael Jackson Alive.
This is literally one of the best lip synchs. His face the entire time was completely in character (and he weirdly looked like he could sound like that???)
I think he is so stiff and having some trouble syncing correctly because someone needed to attend more rehearsals. Love Neil though and know he can bring it...like Broadway level bring it. Just think he could have used some more practice before performing.
*MICHAEL JACKSON IS THE KING OF POP* Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery that mediocrity can pay to greatness.”- Oscar Wilde People should appreciate entertainers are keeping MJ's legendary music alive. (As long as they do acknowledge that is what they are doing)
A L Just my opinion. As a dancer, I really enjoyed the performance as a whole. The dancers, background, wardrobe, etc all fit together pretty well and it was a great representation of Smooth Criminal and Micheal.
+Ashley The set, background dancers, costumes and choreo in general were intense and simply amazing! I hardly ever clicked on a video so fast since I knew NPH (as a musical performer) from Glee and absolutely loved his performance on the show. But in this Lipsync Battle he did not mediate any energy or fun... basically he did not mediate anything to me apart from stiff dance moves. Sort of frustrating to watch because I know that he can do way better than that!
Superwholock Potterhead Oh I know he can too. But you also have to look at the choreographer as well. They have alot of power. That's probably why Micheal was also his own choreographer, now that I think of it.
A L There's no reason to be so hateful about it. If you didn't like the performance, then click off of the video. I'm not going to argue with someone who came into the comment section just to insult others.
The fact that NPH didn’t quite reach MJ’s level at dancing just speaks to how spectacular MJ was. NPH is primarily known for his singing, although he is a great all around performer, and he did great!
Gets a call: Hey, how's it going?! We want you to be on Lip Syc Battle Live! Me (as any actor): Oh, cool! I can't wait! Guy on phone: Yeah, and you'll be competing against Neil Patrick Harris! Me (as any actor): ...You know what, I actually don't think this competition is for me.
Prepare to get your mind blown if you didn't know this before, "Annie" is actually the CPR training doll "Resusci Anne" and from what I heard she still needs help with her breathing almost daily at first aid courses around the world. (look it up if you do not believe me)
That's happened to me b4 too u just reminded me. :/ I forgot that happened. It's not that I'm always annoyed w/ ppl it's sometimes just like stop yall. I'm bashful 🙈. & bc my names Annie sometimes I'll be taking sh personal. If ppl got jokes, it's cool, bc I can switch charectors & get my gun too if ud like 🤗
PiazzaGurl Iwas thinking the same, for me he was a bit stiff in the dancing and moving around but nevertheless still a great performance and fun to watch!
He wasn't half bad, although the one person I would love to see do a Michael Jackson Lip Sync Battle is Justin Timberlake. I remember he performed in a concert with Michael at one point and his moves were pretty solid compared to Michael's.
@@damnright1766 pfff get your facts straight , pop was invented by swing groups in the 80s and 90s and popularized by frank Sinatra, bing crosby and elvis and the name pop music came from Britain, so Michael isn't doing black music the same as eminem isn't doing white music.
i love neil patrick harris, i think he is one of the best performers ever. His Tony opening, 'Bigger'' is the greatest opening to show ever. but that being said, watching him do this performance just makes you appreciate how good MJ actually was.
Sergio Argüello I know right. But the last time I saw him was in HIMYM and like just compare his movements there to his movements here. I initially thought it was just age or something like that. Like, ik ppl r adding some excuses, but u don't have to be a dancer to have some fluid movements. He has also done live performances where ppl could pick him apart many times before so I don't think that was it either.
i know what you're saying - Neil was far too stiff and the MJ moves he did do were too slight and weak - but MJ definitely DID stand still onstage during his Superbowl Halftime Show for a full four minutes as the stadium went insane. Check out the video.
He isn’t a professional dancer or anything, and a lot of people have trouble copying mj’s moves perfectly, it’s better to play to your strengths than to attempt something extremely new to you
Kids, in the beginning of 2018, your Uncle Barney was a Michael Jackson impersonator.
Ferrell Kang I thought the same thing. Lol.
Ferrell Kang you the king for that :)
I read that in his voice ahaha
Ferrell Kang OHHH MY GOD I LOVE YOU 😂
LMAOOOO I LOVE YOU FOR THIS
Ted: "There's no way anyone could pick up a girl by lip syncing Smooth Criminal."
Barney: "CHALLENGE ACCEPTED."
CV Anims I’m gonna suit up!
CV Anims MJ suit up
MAN THIS WOULD BE A GREAT CHALLENGE RIGHT NOW!!! BE SO DOPE
I guess i'm showing my age but he will always be Doogie Howser MD to me no matter how many other awesome roles and broadway shows he does he's just Doogie performing on broadway! lol
lol love the reference, but who couldnt pick up a girl with a convincing smooth criminal performance
This one makes you really appreciate the backup dancers. These people deserve way more fame and recognition than they are getting
That, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt's "Rhythm Nation"
The backup singers are forever the bridesmaid, never the bride.
Jesus Christ loves us unconditionally+eternally!He cares for us so much that He sacrificed Himself on the cross for our sins!God is so good!💗✝️❤
Neil and Madonna are horrible. Backup dancers only entertainment
It doesn't like that. Just like the musicians don't get famous for performing the music in the track. Extras don't get fame performing in a movie. It's just the way it is.
I love all this how I met your mother comments. Makes me feel everybody low key knows what the best sitcom was 🙏

i know it,, and agree with you 100%,,, so stupid,,, go do it if you can do better morons,,, really this was amazing to watch,,, love it... :)
This is show is just for fun idk why ppl take it so seriously
Also they are comparing a 9 minute video that most likely had multiple takes versus a 3.5 minute one take lip sync.battle
It was simply that Neil was stiff. I’ve seen people who had a little more flow. Neil just stroke poses.
@@bdhu2001 come on, the poses get the point, fits great
He nailed the anti-gravity lean and dance moves
MJ would be proud
Totally. They did a really clever cutaway so they could lock in their shoes for the lean.
너무 늙었다.........
Well, with the parented shoes and all, it’s easy.😉
Honestly the fact that he did the lean is insane. That takes hella muscle control, even with the shoes.
My mom passed away, but if she was alive, she’d absolutely love this. She was a big fan of NPH and a bigger fan of MJ
I'm sorry for your loss❤
Sorry for your loss. Maybe she’ll see Michael in heaven.
R.I.P. ❤️
rip
Im a huge MJ fan and i came to this to see what Neil could do. In no way am i comparing him to MJ. But Neil is having fun and I’m loving this!
it is barney amk
I mean, why wouldn't you love this 😍😍
Ain’t nobody Michael but Patrick nailed this ❤
Neil doesn't need to be MJ because no one can be MJ but he did a phenomenal job with this performance. I'm sure MJ would've been proud if he saw this. This is Neil's tribute to MJ and he knocked it outta the park
@@ErasureeraserI can be MJ
Michael Jackson's music and sweet movies never get old
Neither do Blowjobs, my friend. Neither do Blowjobs!
What the hell do blowjobs have to do with Michael Jackson?
They're both awesome and will be loved by many until the end of time.

Really does pay tribute to the legend and help keep his name alive and flowing with todays generations.
Yes turns out that Im from Ecuador. My brother and his friends always played his music. Disco too and funk. Ect..
This makes me happy because Michael’s legacy is still living :”) Miss him a lot
Neil Patrick Harris's was my favorite and beat it was my second favorite
Shinirama uchiha Same!😊
Yaaaaas! I'm so happy they were able to do the lean mechanism. I love that part of the song so much. Michael Jackson was a true original. Each one of his videos/ songs has something entirely unique to them.
that performance was..wait for it..legendary
naaaaa...muy tieso el men
God Michael was such legend
Edit: Michael *IS* such a legend
LongLiveSteelo I guess you could say he was legen-wait for it- DARY
When he wasn't diddling little kids I guess.
AND HE STILL IS A LEGEND. Because legends never die!
Lawren Downing except he didn’t. You look like you do occasionally though
HE IS THE KING OF POP 👑💎
I loved that performance. NPH is from my home town. I’ve been watching him since he started acting. Lots of love and pride from Albuquerque ❤🌹
Whatever, he still dances better than me.
It's surely lots of practice.
He dances better than everyone.
Am so glad your honest
너무 늙었다.........
I swear Michael Jackson's songs are still a banger to this day.
That was extremely phenomenal!!! One of the best I’ve seen on Lip Sync Battle!
always nailed it! smooth Neil Patrick u got the beat! love it
That was legen- wait for it dary
Malik Hasnaoui YAAAAAAASSSSSSS!
Malik Hasnaoui Challenge accepted!
That was legen... Wait for it, I hope you're not allergic to lactose... Dary
Legendary
Everytime I see a cover of MJ, I see why he was a mega star. No one can capture his stage presence/talent
This is one of my favorites!! Love, love, love, love Neil Patrick Harris!!!❤❤❤
I have to say, Neil Patrick Harris is one of my heroes. Damn awesome job. Also, I'm totally in love with Loverne Cox... prolly misspelled, but she's so amazing inside and out!
NPH is such an amazing performer! How can you NOT love him?!
He is adorable I fancy him so much, congrats Neil! You nailed it
Anyone else get annoyed when the camera keeps cutting away to reaction shots - I'm trying to watch the contestant not everyone else!
Kate Lattey me
Kate Lattey EXACTLY!!!!!!!!! I *_HATE_* that!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love to see LL's reactions - but the rest...meh
Great job! Incredible. I was even about to start crying. It always happens to me when I hear the song. It makes me wanna dance and cry at the same time.
Neil Patrick..Fantastic job! You and the dancers!!
Still killed that bro I could never and I love Michael and Neil so bravoooo
Holy Jesus that's what I call tribute I am crying with love an Joy what a beautiful picture of love thank you no one will ever top that love you put in that because that's all I seen beautiful Mon aime what a blessing Chow
Why do MJ’s songs give me the goosebumps! Magic behind he’s music.
He was absolutely brilliant to do the best he could with his lip syncing and fantastic moves
My favorite song and video by Michael Jackson...Neil did great!
This was legen....wait for it and I hope your not lactose intolerant because the second half of that word is...dary! Legendary!!!!!

I'M Brazil! and have Michael is Rodrigo Teaser. I love very good it's performance more beautiful. Thank you for keeping the memory of Michael Jackson Alive.
This song will forever be my jam and this performance is everything 😂💙
Kristin Singer lol same
This is literally one of the best lip synchs. His face the entire time was completely in character (and he weirdly looked like he could sound like that???)
The back-ground dancers were killing it!!!! That's what I was mostly watching.
I love all the elements of this! so much talent and almost too much to watch. Can't believe it is under 3 minutes!
How did they not land Bruno for this MJ tribute?
Caffeinated Nation right????!!
bruno's worth too much
Cuz they know fo sure he'll win.
Hes a literal french fry sized potato. Im sorry but a tall slender mayo gayo was a better choice
Bruno and Justin Timberlake in an MJ LSB - i would pay to see that.
Oh my gowd that was Legend..........wait for it...
Dary!!
Who else thought else thought of glee with Santana and Sebastian’s version
And I thought I was the only one.
Right here.
RIP Naya Rivera
That’s the best cover of smooth criminal and my fave Naya performance R.I.P Naya
Me bro me
All time favorite Michael Jackson song !!!! Neil Patrick Harris lean was gangsta
Sorry, but as soon as I see the outfit and hear the music, I just need to see the MJ video....or the live performance...
King of pop for life!!!
I think he is so stiff and having some trouble syncing correctly because someone needed to attend more rehearsals. Love Neil though and know he can bring it...like Broadway level bring it. Just think he could have used some more practice before performing.
Sarah Lange That sounds very interesting, I enjoyed season 1 and didn't know more were coming :D
I agree, and I'm a big NPH fan. I wanted him to absolutely kill it.
In clips during the show he admitted that he's not a dancer and was nervous about the routine. I give him props for doing it anyway and doing it live.
This made me miss MJ even more 😣😣😣 there will never be another KING ♚

Neil Patrick Harris is just awesome! Love this guy!
HE DID THE LEAN IM SO HAPPY
He is such a good performer! Well done!
NPH is a PERFORMER I expected nothing less than this level of greatness from him!
I love anyone and anything that pays homage to Michael Jackson.
Good job NPH 😊👍❤️
This performance of his was legend-wait for it-dary!

N.P.H. killed it. He was absolutely on 🔥 Great impression 👏🏻👍🏻
Day 25 of Quarantine: I need those stairs in my house
Add like 400 today though it was open in my country. Session 2 just stated like 2week ago here
If anyone could pull it off I’d be NPH or Bruno Mars tbh
Also Usher
And Chris brown
Solrac Dan
Or me
truth.
That was not good at all.
Bro this is spot on, the moves are just- perfect.
But only if he wore a wig like MJ's hair in the official Music Video than it would be PERFECT
2019 yet I still don’t know if annie is okay
Wait. Is Billie Jean his lover or not?
He says she isn't but I dunno...that kid might be his...

I freaking love Neil Patrick Harris ❤️❤️ SLAY QUEEN
Love love this song. Mj, the beat,, the dance, mv are just legend. My co-workers sing the chorus to me all the bec my name is Annie 👏🤣
That's happened to me b4 too u just reminded me. :/ I forgot that happened. It's not that I'm always annoyed w/ ppl it's sometimes just like stop yall. I'm bashful 🙈. & bc my names Annie sometimes I'll be taking sh personal. If ppl got jokes, it's cool, bc I can switch charectors & get my gun too if ud like 🤗
Pleas!!
Michael Jackson is Michael Jackson.
Neal Patrick Harris is Neal Patrick Harris!!
Never ever coming Just Like Michael Jackson.
This is a Legend
Not bad. But he really needed to be more animated. Michael never stood still. He was always moving even when it wasn’t choreographed.
PiazzaGurl yessss
PiazzaGurl yeah
PiazzaGurl he was good but there is definitely only one Michael
Yea but this isnt a dancs battle its a lip sync one
PiazzaGurl Iwas thinking the same, for me he was a bit stiff in the dancing and moving around but nevertheless still a great performance and fun to watch!
For NPH standards, this is too lowkey.
i agree
Yeah, the movement felt very stale, and for an MJ song. :/ Where was the flow?
I agree. Needed more.
Yes , For me , this was really bad. Almost no dancing what happened NPH??
Not much emotion shown in it.

If Neil hosted the Oscars with a Michael Jackson lip syncing as the opening, it would've been one of the greatest moments in Oscar history
I think he was nervous at the beginning but when jumped and after omg it was so spot on! Proud of him!
Buena coreografía de uno de los mejores temas del gran Michael Jackson, wl único rey del pop!

His performance was LEGENDARY
Yes…. Now we have Barney pretending to be Michael Jackson ti get all the girls 😆
Neil killed that skit of Michael Jackson Smooth Criminal 👍
That was awesome
Yeah, I’m a NPH fan but this was painful to watch. Completely stiff. If anything, I guess, it makes you appreciate MJ’s moves all that much more.
Sergio Argüello nph likes it stiff. In his moves, his mouth and behind.
They'll be many who'll imitate !
its a high bar at least he went out there
I understand ... It Will never be like The great MJ but for it's a Nice effort ... I think that was great for someone like him ...
Sergio Argüello I know right. But the last time I saw him was in HIMYM and like just compare his movements there to his movements here. I initially thought it was just age or something like that.

Count Olaf is working overtime to sell this disguise!!
Soooo well done! The LEAN! Daaaaaaaang NPH! 🔥 😍
I love Neil but I have to say he wasn’t enough “energetic”. Mj never stood still on stage, never.
Skye Quinn yalll act like he suppose to dance and copy everything exactly like MJ 🙄 calm down it is just an celebration for him !
i know what you're saying - Neil was far too stiff and the MJ moves he did do were too slight and weak - but MJ definitely DID stand still onstage during his Superbowl Halftime Show for a full four minutes as the stadium went insane. Check out the video.

Michael was literally known for standing completely still for 10 minutes at a time as soon as he arrived on stage to build anticipation...
I fully agree! I felt like oh man this is slow and morning even for NPH! Then I read all the leftys comments on here
