The Weeknd - Dirty Diana (Echoes Of Silence)

[acoupet09]

i'm scared to listen to weeknd songs for fear that i'll like them too much and forget about older shit

[kostova13]

i love his version.... :)

[the24th1]

"he will never be like mj" SOME michael jackson fans have their head so far up his ass that they refuse to give anyone else credit, they live in this delusion world

[AdriDoesIt23]

Okay who's the asshole that made 42 accounts and disliked this video?

[AdriDoesIt23]

He sounds just like MJ.

[thayoungestking1]

I ONLY LISTEN TO THE WEEKND AS OF RIGHT NOW

[970ACE]

can someone tell me why this has dislikes?

[luvlynn07]

love his voice!!!!!!!!!

[borntobewiildful]

voice like an angel

[shytx3]

Better than mj's version...thas my opinion so I'm right....and if u like mj's better than ur right also...!

[ivorycoast4589]

@_Villager



[MrBuzzialdrin]

I like the background beats @ the start

[clj17]

this shit bangs

[CatsupandMayo]

i prefer listening to music thru youtube than my itunes. i feel like i aint the only one listening to something amazing :) thumps up the weeknd and us viewers

[b4bal1ty]

Of course he wont be like MJ. He'll probably stay black for one thing.

[acidome]

I'm high

[acidome]

Uh this is the original song chopped leveled & auto tuned to so better for being slow.

[999m4em]

@acidome ..........no its not.....

[NOZONEmetal]

I heard that this isnt actually the guy singing its just a live clip of MJ singing edited and auto tuned :S not that MJ auto-tuned

[bgpjr1989]

@NOZONEmetal are you mental? list your source please... it's not even auto tuned.

[flamingo365]

This is NOT better than MJ's although its excellent. Lets see if The Weeknd can perform this in concert with such passion and electrifying energy like MJ did, doubt it but I'd still like a LIVE performance

[hiki921]

hes the only other man who can do justice for this song

[xMairi09x]

wow, he sounds really similar to MJ, this cover is awesome:D although MJ is the king, but even so, this is still damn gooood.

[jaylan91839]

The only reason yall saying he not at mj level of Dirty Diana is because hes dead. This one is best for me.

[TrueLife19921]

@jaylan91839

Jackson wrote this song. Also, this guy is obviously imitates the vocal style of MJ

I prefer the version of MJ, but it's a good cover.

[BloodOfThePheniox]

@jaylan91839 Jaylan I like MJ's version better, but your absolutely right. Some people just say it because he's dead. I'm not gonna be a typical Youtube idiot and immature and tell you your wrong, because that's your opinion and I respect that.

[icurvid09]

TO ALL THESE IDIOTS SAYING HE WILL NEVER BE LIKE MJ. HE OBVIOUSLY KNOWS THIS. HE ONLY MADE THIS COVER AS A TRIBUTE TO MJ. AND TO ALL OF THOSE WHO SAY HE IS USING AUTO TUNE. NEED TO LOOK HIM UP SINGING ACAPELLA. :)

[arabu5002]

@icurvid09 fucking perfect said..

[231Joshie]

A little.

[Konphetty]

He sounds nowhere liike MJ any smart MJ fan should realise that

[231Joshie]

Sounds like just like Mj!

[bonestorm99]

This doesn't sound anything like MJ's singing to me, but that doesn't mean this wasn't good.

[iLLifeOmi]

wow. no really he sounds almost like MJ and i say this because NOBODY can sing like MJ 

[mccsmiles1]

uhh uhh uhh ..... EARGASM !!!



[aboybrushedred57]

i get chills when he goes into the 2nd chorus at a lower pitch

[MrSav4life]

@aboybrushedred57 Hell yea, that baseline and vocal drop was sick as fuck.

[mjbubble123]

lol autotune.

[icurvid09]

@mjbubble123 That is not no autotune LMAO thats his voice :) you should look up the weeknd singing acapella. he sounds the same :)

[Jay47512]

OK IT'S FUNNY HOW PEOPLE DISLIKE THIS

[bilo0544]

Jdjjdd

[soopersamx]

damn. Mikes the king but this gives him a run for his money

[EvelynPimpBoss]

This is just so amazing ! <3

it reminds me of MJ right away<333 r.i.p

[TheCertifiedFresh]

Sound like him! And its not auto tune u queef

[lilLawXA]

I still get the same feeling when I listen to MJ. This music is POWERFUL,it reaches the soul.

[AlizeCiz]

no hes not on mj's level hes clearly using autotune. still sounds good.

[Jay47512]

@AlizeCiz How is he using auto tune?? he sings it in a way other artists can't and he sounds like MJ cuz of the way he is singing in it bro!! but you are right on one point he sounds awesome!! :D

[MrSav4life]

@AlizeCiz You obviously don't know what The weeknd sounds like or what auto tune'd artist sound like. Because that was he dumbest fucking attempt to downplay an artist, I've ever seen.

[icurvid09]

@AlizeCiz lmfao wow. u should look him up singing acapella. he sounds the same. :)

[KeezieTV]

Shut the fuck up & enjoy the music.

[TrojansFrightOn]

so much better than that rapist

[XxV3NGEANC3xX]

@TrojansFrightOn LOL what do you mean so much better, it isn't better than MJ..its very good no doubt about that but just not as good.

[CHEKplease12]

i wish MJ got too see this guys talent ! R.I.P. <3

[DaLovelyDreek]

MJ raw as fuck but The Weeknd jus does something to me....im diggin this shit :)

[osms33]

@princebased Your taking my comment out of context. I was comparing the weeknd to current artists that are being compared to michael jackson (ie. chris brown, ne-yo), I said that he is more like michael than they are in terms of vocal ability.

[StrangerToEarth]

This makes me wet.

[nellywellyful]

@StrangerToEarth lmaoo

[Dom20002007]

Good cover but it aint got nothing on the orginal! MJs voice is untouchable!

[Brookcity1]

@ilove2one

Yo its ok if u think he did it but i got 1 question and b honest: did u see him do it?

Let me answer it for u HELL NO so stfu and stop hatin on MJ

[ilove2one]

@Brookcity1 we didnt see oj kill nicole either. im not hatin on mj, im hatin on child molestation.

[SnipesTopShelf]

i get bitches pregnant to this shit

[trickutwerk101]

imma marry this man! THE WEEKND<3

[mzmadonna]

seriously i think im in love...this guys voice is AMAZING

[damo08]

this dude makes my skin tingle and i aint even gay lmao!!!! LEGO WEEKND!!!!

[yogirllikeit18]

pure sex

[SeeYaOnSondee]

This is like a MJ clone. Unreal. He needs to do more MJ songs

[smpoh]

unreal



[kendranemo98]

this is the future Michael Jackson

[razzypoop]

im sorry but this sucks.

[ny4lyfe19]

@hysteriks seriously. Did u just watch theneedledrop then come here n post that?

[hysteriks]

His vocal is so close the Jackson's that it almost sounds like a remix and not a cover.

[lovechyleable]

MJ Was A legend Period. JJackson is part of that Legend Music Is The Food Of Love , I Love The Weeknd He Is Great All His Albums Free ! To Download Which Other Artist has ever given us 3 Brilliant albums to download , I Would of bought them anyhow , They Are That Good I Like , Lil Wayne NickiMinaj But Its All About The Young Cash Money Music Is There For A Purpose To Make You Laugh, Cry, Make Baby`s Take Drugs Etc, Music Has Kept Me Going Through the Very Dark And Twisted Periods Of My Life !

[kiaraaaaabebs]

Absolutely beautiful.

[ilove2one]

The Weeknd is better bc he dont touch lil boys

[missgenie89]

@ilove2one MJ mentally was not in a healthy place (nor are many great artists). That doesn't mean he wasn't a musical legend. I don't think his private life should really affect your judgement of his music. I love his work.

[ilove2one]

@missgenie89 I love his work too but stopped supporting it when i found out how sick he was

[munroe94]

@ilove2one FUCK you , there was no proof and the proof that was provided was inconclusive...STUPID media manipulated fuck

[ilove2one]

@munroe94 said the lil boy who enjoyed being molested

[MichiieJackson]

@ilove2one You're a dumb-fuck for believing in such shit, go update yourself. He was found not guilty.

[ilove2one]

@MichiieJackson the media labeled him "king of pop". people don't accuse you of the same thing for 20 years if it isnt true. MJ died bc god dont like child molesters so looks like I win. and you look like a moron for defending a child molester. and molesting kids is wrong you idiot

[MichiieJackson]

@ilove2one "people don't accuse you of the same thing for 20 years if it isnt true." Once the media fucks you, Hollywood rarely sees you in the same way, they didn't accuse him for 20 years, you shit wit. I know molesting children is wrong but he wasn't a child molester, read your facts first, you think you're right because that's what you read in the newspapers. I feel sorry for people like you: believing in everything they read. Dumb-fuck.

[ilove2one]

@MichiieJackson hey dipshit, mj molested lil boys, quit defending him bc you look stupid as hell. he was a musical genius but he was def sick in the head

[MichiieJackson]

@ilove2one Eh, whatever I'll let you live in your ignorance. c:

[MichiieJackson]

@ilove2one and WHO are you to judge him? Calling him sick won't make you any better. You are not a saint or perfect, so you don't have the right to judge someone, you didn't know him you're just judging, that IS sick. Idiot.

[MichiieJackson]

@ilove2one and go learn how to spell words correctly.

[SpirytSista]

i LOVE this cover. best cover i've heard. but ppl talking about this is better than the original need to grow up. Nobody can touch MJ's vocals

[jaylan91839]

@SpirytSista It is better than original. Say what you please.

[SpirytSista]

I am SUCH a tough critic of anyone who attempts to cover MJ, but this was pretty good! MJ would be proud!

[kiddrapp2k11]

this song is therapy for me..for all men who has a dirty diana in there life!..thanx wekkend

[fruitbat816]

he needs to go harder on "dirty diana" other than that this shit goes hard

[candyyycanesz]

I like the Weeknd more than MJ but that's just me

[KiNgOfPoPlOvEr1000]

@candyyycanesz Yup just like I love Mj more than The Weeknd, The Weeknd is also amazing though

[eddy5750]

The weeknds dope as fuck

[TheKarinitas]

.Yeah! it is a good version no doubt and i appreciate and respect it because it is a tribute and i am sure MJ would have appreciate it too.. i know that it is almost impossible to avoid comparing both versions but With all respect MJ ´s version is ORIGINAL and unique that is why his version is the best. i didn't know who The weeknd was until now anyway good version.

[316swagga]

PEOPLE PLEASE LISTEN TO THE SONG AND STOP THE COMPARISONS. THE MAN IS TALENTED. APPRECIATE GOOD MUSIC FOR ONCE.

[MrJML13]

when people say "mj is best..ut this one is good too" it translates to "his is an eargasm and kills micheals version"

[meezy125]

It almost scares me how much he sounds like MJ.

[KarenJacksonForever]

Yo prefiero la versión de Michael Jackson :/

[yaboyfr3shjj]

they both sound the same but mj is the best i love mj (nohomo)

[MzDrizzy86]

all respects to the king but he sounds like micheal jackson like for real

[OnlyAyoooALex]

Better then the original.

[TheGame090]

@OnlyAyoooALex come on dude! its a great cover of mj's song, but to say its better than the original?... speachless! MJ still is the king of music

[MzDrizzy86]

@OnlyAyoooALex no one and i mean no one can ever compare to MIcheal Jackson both versions are great but Micheal is still number one

[supercute677]

@MzDrizzy86 thank you!

[mjzbadgirl87]

MJ's Dirty Diana will always be better, but dis i good also.....

[Millie12678]

they did MJ proud with this version! its awesome!

[didinaaa]

<3 !!!

[kremidas92]

original is always gonna be better, but this is definitely up there

[Jenny4rmdaabl0ck]

I been listening to this for two days straight

[Joe27272]

OMG i love both versions so much!!!!!!

[XXXMeanBeanXXX]

I bet The Weeknd didn't even need to practice to make it sound this good...

[helliop]

Wow, I thought this was MJ for a second, gotta tip my hat to the singer, amazing vocals.

[SpinMeredith]

Michael Jackson makes untouchable songs. As in, 99% of singers can NOT pull them off simply because they are Michael.

The Weeknd is in the 1% of those who pulled off a MJ cover.

[Lightningandstuff]

Uhm , why does this sound like Michael Jackson ?

[justhavinfun007]

@Lightningandstuff probably because its a remix of a M.J. song ...

[Lightningandstuff]

@justhavinfun007 Oh , well I didn't know .

[RneilandR]

This is pretty good and the best cover of dirty diana!!! Its kinda close 2 MJs voice. Impressive. But its not better. You cant compare original with that one because original is 25 years older. It makes sence.

[kyle95skate]

Micheal Jackson.........100% Good!

The Weeknd...............99% Good!

I Absolutley love The Weeknd and even though im only 16, i know nobody could top the King Of Pop, But the Weeknd can come very damn close.

[HardlyPauseRecords]

ppl are saying this is better then mj's only because the beat is more appealing thats all. But vocally, Mike will shit on this. But thats not the point, the original will always be better because 50 years from now, which version will the radio be playing?..... the ORIGINAL

[RneilandR]

@HardlyPauseRecords

True! But its 25 years from now:D

[RidaBade1]

@HardlyPauseRecords tellemm!!

[Dom20002007]

@HardlyPauseRecords the beat is not more appealing...MJs version is superior in every way! Much darker, deeper...oozing GENUINE emotion!Just Untouchable!

[Juanm678]

Can people stop saying this is better than MJ's. This is a good cover and I give the weeknd that, it's a good cover. but no one can top MJ

[ahyesagreed]

THIS IS WAY BETTER THAN MJ'S!!!!!!!!!!

[MilitantRager]

This is the best COVER of this song EVER! The Weeknd showed his asss!!! Lol

[DarriousLondonTV]

@MilitantRager hell yeah he did!

[CamNicee]

ON REPEAT .

[IntoxxxicateYourself]

Wow! I LOVE this. I like both versions. *faints*

[stophatingonme123]

THIS WHOLE FUCKING MIXTAPE IS BABY MAKING SHIT ALL DAY N NIGHT LONG

[jazzyisamofo]

My god, he sounds exactly like him, though.

[WickedMo13]

Fucking amazing!

[MoonwalkerForever89]

MJ>OTHER SHITTY ARTIST. ENOUGH SAID.

[kucb4m83]

I NEVER THOUGHT THAT I WOULD LOVE A REMAKE AS MUCH AS I LOVE THIS ONE....HE KILLED IT!!!!! POWERFUL TRIBUTE TO THE KING OF POP

[jlewis654]

covers are meant to be tributes. this is a pretty amazing tribute if you ask me.

[bananalover666]

@jlewis654

Well said, friend....well said

[MrMarkd15]

He killed it!!7

[crazygal41194]

this song is good..but NOBODY can top michael jackson

[VillaVibe]

THe Weeknd is awesome!!!

[darceyd96]

BEAUTIFUL . . .

[Nicoooooooooooole]

Oh shit, wait this isn't michael jackson? Holy fuck. The weeknd did a good fucking job.

[MACROUCH7]

The Weeknd did a great job on this song. Doig this song was a brave move and i will be suprised if anyone tries to top this.

[GavinMcShooter]

i think its kind of weird this happens after MJ is gone.. crazy world we live in

[kellybeldela123]

I think the weekend honestly did a amazing job with this song it had to take a lot of courage to do a legend song of MJ but the did it well and I'm proud i bet MJ is to :)

[arkmnk]

i bet MJ, wherever he is, it feels like heaven while listening to this. fu*k yeah

[dinabaabe]

this is so damn good

[tsunami943]

Like it more towards the end



[nisha28ful]

2:04 - 2:08 the way he says "dirty diana" lol

[Magomr3z25]

EPIC!!!

[jramirez31890]

THIS IS PROBABLY MY FAVORITE MICHAEL JACKSON SONG SO WHEN I SAW THE NAME I HAD TO LISTEN. IT WAS A BIT RISKY TO DO A LEGENDS SONG. BUT THE WEEKND DID A GREAT JOB.

[nanalong2014]

not feelin it, sounds like he's straining to hit certain notes at some parts

[GardenStateReaper]

@nanalong2014 I just look at it is he's singing his pain away.

[davenrai]

MJs version is more rock this one is more high beat lol cant explain

[dopemcee]

question is the vocal on 3:26 when he says "he's not coming back because HE"S SLEEPING WITH ME" ...just unnecessarily loud and sound unmixed?...thats the only part of the song that he fkked up for me..

[FuckingFairyXO]

@dopemcee yeah i totally heard that too. kinda distracting, but otherwise a good cover

[nrChaz]

*CAUTION * IF you don't want Any kids don't play The weeknd during making Love

[Rakanmasoud]

Damn this is somthing i'm a huge mj fan but i must say they killed it

[molee34]

@Rakanmasoud one person

[MolotovRooster]

fucking bad ass

[lovetreyful]

Mj forever and always.....R.I.P.

[carrenoa90]

[freshkidlilkec]
