      61 here. Some say D.L. are DANGEROUS. Next level genuises. Elite, genteel musicians from another stratosphere. Just downright DISRESPECTFUL - and I mean that with the utmost respect to them. Who else would brilliantly re-imagine an iconic legendary song with an interlude featuring a DOUBLE BELL EUPHONIUM?! I mean...who does that? D.L. and Cory Wong and friends...that's who. And it works! Kudos to the collaboration with Cory and the WongNotes. (most of the members) These young masters of their craft are bringing it back! Unfortunately, I fear we will never hear this type of awesomeness on mainstream media or platforms, because folks today won't recognize that D.L. are expertly playing what we heard decades ago......MUSIC. D.L. gives me hope though. Right now, they really are at the top of the game with what they do. That's saying something (from an EWF, Chicago, Queen, Journey, etc., fan)

This is such a wonderful experience that I had with you that there are not enough words. If there is a musician's heaven somewhere in the Universe, if there is Michael and other musicians and singers who are no longer physically with us, but are there with God, then they are rejoicing with all of us. Somewhere in the beginning, God is sound, even so he has enormous power, music is also his instrument, it brings people together, it doesn't matter race, how rich or poor someone is, educated, healthy or sick, you can feel love, emotions from music , so thank you all very much. May God continue to bless you as he has put heart, life and talent into each of you. May God be with you even on your travels, may he accompany your steps and take care of you. Amen, thank you.

    I was listening to a modern funk playlist on Spotify and this song came on. Listen!!! When I say that my world was turned upside down! It is VERY HARD to cover an MJ song and do it well. This one surpassed every expectation! Wow!!! And the vocalist had to have Stevie Wonder's influence on his vocals??? My day is complete!

      Most people steer clear away from covering Michael Jackson's music because Michael set the bar so high that many musicians can't match it, can't top it or equal it. And, of course, there have been a few exceptions (Boyz II Men, Floetry, Justin Timberlake). Most musicians are not humble to begin with. Anything that they do, THEY themselves want ALL of the accolades and approval for. When doing Michael's music, you'll instantly be compared to him and now you're in his shadow. Again, most musicians don't want that and can't hit the notes that Michael could sing or dance like him, so most of them back away from covering Michael's body of music. Dirty Loops and Cory Wong gave a truly loving and wonderful performance, though.

    beautiful ,then Cory Wong finally made himself one of major artists like modern day Nile Rodgers!
    He really added tight cutting onto the song.
    Everything is outstanding..one of the greatest cover of King MJ all time! Totally blown out!!

    I must say that what I have recently heard has truly left me in awe. The level of skill and musicianship displayed is beyond compare. Each note and chord is played with precision and passion, creating a truly mesmerizing sound. The vocals, in particular, are simply astonishing. The range, power, and emotion behind each note is truly breathtaking.
    It's hard to put into words the impact that this music has had on me. It has reminded me of the boundless potential of music and the power it holds to move and inspire us. I believe it is important to take a moment to appreciate and celebrate the talent of these musicians. They have truly created something special and it is a privilege to be able to listen to it. I encourage everyone to give it a listen and experience the magic for yourself.

    This band is incredible. Someone shared this with me on Facebook the other day and I have now watched their entire RUclips back catalogue. I've not been so engaged with music in a long time; every on a winner!
