I will say: my absolute favorite moment is the part where the chorus of both songs combine, and it just becomes an argument between Jackson and Clapton on if "she's" lying or not. Well done, fine sir.
mark -- live it is tough. on a computer, not so much. it's done a little at a time. they're stretching words and compressing them to make them fit the verse. it sounds like they played with the pitch too.
Clever, yes, but not that tough. It's mostly Clapton's vocals coupled with an instrumental version of Billie Jean, and MJ singing the chorus at one point. I'm not saying it's easy, it's not. But some mashups are certainly more complex.
@@lottax.8031 dude I was looking thru the comments while listening, and I ended up reading your comment perfectly in time w the music 🤯 that was so dope.
As a musician, both cover and original. Many years of working stages at bars and big venues. This impresses me, the mix/mash ups. I've performed both of these songs over the years, and never would have put them together. Absolutely brilliant!

Eerie when you watch these matchups - which are great - can't help but ponder those who've endured, and those who are gone. Legends, all. Greatly treasured, greatly missed. Great channel.
They be gettin down with the best coke ever found ....michael and eric just be makin the sounds that move your bodies around booming and zoomin around rocking out to all the cocaine by the pound .........
That carefully placed "be careful what you dooo" @2:52...all-time my friend. And that little MJ harmony you snuck in there just before @ 2:43 that is brilliant.
Michael Jackson beat boxed all of his songs to Quincy Jones who took it into the studio to produce the songs. There's vids of Michael Jackson beat boxing on video, saying how he envisioned all of the songs and how they would sound.
I'm clearly late to the party on this guy's work but I'm glad I finally made it here! What a true talent you have, sir! This is not easy to do at all and you make it absolutely seamless. Bravo.
As a lil kid, I loved hearing The Eagles Cream on the stereo. Never got into Clapton solo or this song, until now. Brilliant, and the mix transitions are so flawless!
"She don't like cocaine", then "Billie Jean is not my lover". Well, that combination takes on a whole new meaning - we don't do the same drugs anymore.
The Wild Cherry guitarist absolutely blew me away do not believe how well he played definitely one of the most underrated guitarist in 'rock 'music. Play That Funky Music indeed.👏👏👏 10 out of 10 IMO.
I'll do you one even better. I shared Bill's channel with the owner of a roller-skating rink close to my town and he LOVED it so much that he's going to play Bill's mixes every other Saturday night!!! I'll see if I can post a video of the mayhem!
Stop! How are you doing this?! 🤯Not only is the song mix and video editing flawless, you also chose two songs that fo so well together on an emotional level.
I love how Eric Clapton looks like an accountant at the bar after work in the video. His appearance never reflected his talent. "Billie Jean, is not by lover...She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie" slick work
@JW A Because he was, but he was done with rock after cream. He went for a more soul/pure blues way in the 70s and pop/film scores in the 80s, because the blues in the 80s was almost dead, then Stevie Ray Vaughan taking the music industry by a storm and "reviving" the blues men who was doing Pop music at the time.
@@Barrycomedian1 LOL. It's funny how many people don't remember or know in the 1960s/70s Eric Clapton was one of the biggest rock stars on the planet and looked and dressed the part.
Bill, I watched ALL of them last night! LOL...it takes a certain strain of warped to make these LOL...the work is matchless...not only do you get the music on the money but the video syncs...outf'ingstanding ;)
Dude, this was amazing. Edit: I have listened to this song probably 40 times since first hearing it a week ago. I truly believe this is the beat this song was written for. My father is the biggest Clapton fan, and I am named after the Man himself. Even he agrees, this mix is one of the best ever. Amazing job.
I was expending a lot of brain matter trying to remember Why I couldn't remember this. Eric Clapton is one of my favorite artists. Loved Cocaine. And through my high school and early 20 Michael Jackson was big. His videos were a big part of MTV's success. Great job.
I stumbled on to your channel a few months ago and immediately subscribed. Your work is sublime, and this particular mashup has got to be one of my favorites. I grew up listening to both Eric and Michael and would have never put these two songs together. The sequencing to have "I am the one" followed by "she don't lie" is just crazy good thinking! The only thing that would make this better would be seeing Clapton moonwalking! Bravo Sir!!!
Does anyone remember actually watching (live) the first time Michael did the moonwalk, and the entire world was like "WHAT IN THE WORLD JUST HAPPENED????"
Yes, yes I remember. First was the movie Star Wars in '77, then in '83 this song came out and solidified the, "Manboy" population of the entire United States.
this is brilliant, all of it. respect for the efforts you have put in making those mashups. hearing Clapton sing over that 80's clap track drum sound is hilarious.... love it...
dude, you are like a musical archivist historian from the future (3000 A.D.), that found fragments from 1000 years ago of ancient music and pieced it together so that it would make sense again. Well done citizen
I will say: my absolute favorite moment is the part where the chorus of both songs combine, and it just becomes an argument between Jackson and Clapton on if "she's" lying or not. Well done, fine sir.
