  • my co-writer here telling me to write the following in here : "hit me baby ... play it again ... at least one more time ... ... ... " good night ... "and sweet dreams" ...

  • nice

  • ohh shit this is slow the comments are correct (to you that say the original is like this it isnt ive got it on the making of thriller and its a bit faster)

  • Props and Respect to you and a MASSIVE Fuck You to Sony

  • Excellent job!!!

  • TRULY ADMIRABLE! WONDERFUL!

  • CONGRATULATIONS BY THIS EXCEPTIONAL HIGH QUALITY JOB! FANTASTIC!

  • Then he lifts the rainbow 6:07 and sets it on fire. Followed by a guitar riff from Tito. Ya can't make this up folks.

  • A lot of coke was used in the making of this video.

  • Absolutely Gorgeous! I'm smiling...can you see it!!! Love and Peace!

  • Good job bro !!!

  • Holy Crap! Is this restored or is this restored?

  • sept 81.the cow palace in san francisco.the jacksons in concert.this aired first then the boys hit the stage.what memories.thanks so much.i was there.awesome.

  • @TheJoesousa You are very lucky...I am revisiting this video because I saw The Cirque MJ Immortal show on 12.27 in LV and they added this tune, one of my faves by the J5. The vision of a world united in peace, it's a thing of beauty isn't it?

  • WOW! SO BEAUTIFUL THE WAY YOU RESTORED THIS...Where did that ending come from? I've seen this video at-least 1,000 times and have never seen that but absolutely LOVE IT! You deserve to be recognized for this video.

  • Awesome job!!!

  • To the individual or persons responsible for bringing this video to life.

    My hats off to you. Because of your diligence and efforts in spending time to bring back a video that was so vivid but overlooked. You truly should be commended. The video, not only for the outstanding graphics, but for the message shows us as a human race that no matter what we go through we are strong, we can get through trials and tribulations and still keep in going. Thanks for bringing back a great vid. That is one

  • Awesome video with incredible hd sound and picture!..This was out back in 80 or 81, I was about 5-6yrs old and I still remember this Jacksons album we had @ home. Inside the album cover was a nice colorful photo of a peacock. My fav song on this album was Heartbreak Hotel. This was and still is some good music unlike most of today's music that sucks. 70's and 80's music was the best! Think I'ma have to head to Amazon site and order this cd and add to my collection! ;-)

  • nice job thanks!

  • Awesome job. I remember when this was new, you did a really good job.

  • LOVE THIS!!

  • download??

  • Adore!!!

    

  • Great work on the restoration, thank you!

  • So many childhood memories for me!!! ... this video is partially responsible for much of who I am today! We had it recorded on Beta Max! (this and the rare E.T. lp narrated by M.J.)

  • Although I appreciate your restoration (and smack in the face to Sony Music), the actual music in your version is slower..

    

  • @FunLoveGirl123 No actually the speed is correct as it was when the video first came out!

  • Belle qualité d'image !!!

    

  • GREAT!

  • I enjoyed watching this music video on TV during the mid 80's.

  • Wow! I'm completely spellbound @ the video.

    Some sound FX, however, are over-ruling the song itself.

    Other than that, it's a great cut by the Jacksons (f.k.a. The Jackson 5ive).

  • i just really listened to the Essential Jacksons version of this song i got from iTunes. i was mistaken about the sound quality. it has obviously been remixed from the original and is excellent. they must have dubbed in the sound effects over the song for the movie.

  • Comment removed

  • They have reduced the tempo to emphasize their visual restoration so what may have been a great tribute is now a unfulfilling distortion of the artists original vision.

    You blew it Ultimist, if YouTube is to blame why post it here?

  • @sirdog78 i like this version better,,the sound quality seems greatly enhanced compared to the original. except for the loudness of the affects factor, which can probably be addressed, i think it sounds great. i just bought the original on iTunes, and i think this one sound better by far. maybe i just have to remix the original myself....it sounds like an old recording...even though it was released in 2004 on The Essential Jacksons....???

  • @sirdog78 p.s. i think Michael likes it

  • @sirdog78 i hope after all your complaining, you signed the petition...

  • Beautiful!!!

  • It looks amazing, so much better than the VISION version, I was wondering what was up with that....I own the set, I am a lifelong fan, and I was like WTF, these videos look bad :(

    MJ deserves the utmost respect, but do you really think Sony will give it to him ? Never.

    They are just happy he's dead, I am sure of that.

  • Beautifu!!!! Thank you.

  • LOL Videocopilot fx ;)

  • Great restoration, but....Your watermark logo in that size is totally unnecessary - ruined the darn clip.

  • good quality video but a shame the sound track is slow

  • This is GLORIOUS.

  • Can you feel Michael energy? then let's dance together ♥

  • to slow

    

  • OMG, the enhanced visual quality of this video is amazing! I felt like the H2O was actually coming @ me during 3:22. Thank you for uploading, as I'm so glad that I found it and saw it. IMAX theaters should release a collection of his videos as a 3D adventure or somn. Despite the sound changes that you'd been going back and forth with someone about, I think that you've done an excellent job!!! I can't wait for more!!!

  • I actually thought something was wrong with me for being afraid of this video as a child. But now I seen comments of other people saying they was afraid of it too.

  • The quality of this video jus blew my mind

  • The quality of this video jus blew my mind

  • Um, too bad your logo in the corner ruined the whole thing.

  • Great song..creepy video

  • Nice work! Haven't seen this since long ago and it looks and sounds great. 

  • WOW...well done!!! One of my favorite J5 songs!! Good job...and I signed the petition!

  • That was nice thanks for sharing. EXCELLET JOB Ultimist !!!!!!

  • The King of pop is dead and the pop died with him!

  • It was resostered very Nice, I agree with someone saying the sounds are to loud I can't hear the Jacksons singing.

  • @amsterdamgirl Audio has always been like that, just needs to be digitally remastered.... great job on the restoration Ultimist! Song still gives me goosebumps... long live the King of Pop!

  • @amsterdamgirl to me, that's how it's always been. I could never hear their voices. :(

  • My only complaint is that all of the sound effects and even the music is so loud that I can't hear any of the Jacksons actually singing.

  • CAN YOU FEEL IT????? I CAN IT'S CALLED LOVE!!!!!

  • BEAUTIFUL..... :D

  • get to the music already, and shut the fuck up, ya fuckin leach

  • NOOOOO....THE OTHER VIDEO SOUNDTRACK IZ AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN, HORRIBLY SPED UP.....THIS IZ THE CORRECT PITCH.....ALTHOUGH MICHAEL'S VOICE WAS HIGH AT THAT TIME...HE DEFINITELY DIDN'T SOUND LIKE A CHIPMUNK......AND THIS RESTORATION IZ BEAUTIFULLY DONE, ULTIMIST....EXCELLENT JOB, IN MY OPINION....I LOVE IT.....THANK YOU....CAN'T WAIT FOR MORE, SO I CAN SHOW MY STEPKIDS WHAT MICHAEL WAS REALLY ALL ABOUT....AND IN FULL, VIVID, GRAPHIC AWESOMENESS....LOL

  • It is slower

  • is it just me or does it seem slower?

  • I liked it. This is one of my favorite videos. Good work.

  • This would look good in 3D

  • LOVE IT!!!

  • Simply amazing...

  • My favorite jacksons song.....

  • Wow....awesome job!

  • I can't believe it says"Long live the king" at the end its so sad he was such a great man

  • this is how the bible describes after the rapture, after the 3rd war

  • A fantastic job done on the remake of this video. A job well done. I think M.J. and his brothers were trying to tell us something in this video. We can all live together in harmony, regardless of our backgrounds. Man does not need to look at the outer appearance of a person, but at their heart. Life is too short.

  • i don't get it

  • makes me remember white rabbit...

  • 3:10

  • Everytime i look at this video i really wish this would've happen for real. It's definitely time for all of us as a people to become one. It's time for the whole world to feel it becausr it's gettin too crazy out here. I just wish GOD can just heal this planet, we are definitely in need of it. IT'S TIME PEOPLE......IT'S TIME TO COME TOGETHER!!!

  • The sound and vision to this video is just ABSOLUTELY REMARKABLE!!!! Thanks a million Ultimist!!!!

  • i think either way you did a hell of a great job considering their selling this video in stores and this one tops them all your a true mj fan he will be missed... i love it it looks great on my 62in tv almost hd looking cause the colors are enhanced keep up the good work

  • GOOD BUT THE BPM IS DIFERENT

  • Cant say enuf omg i was a teen back then and it alwasys made a lump in my throat well after seeing dis i let out a few tears i love it u r a genius kudos

  • AWESOME!!!!!!!

    

  • OMFG YOUR ARE AMAZING :-)

  • I'll never forget when they reunited to this song...on stage.. I felt like I wanted to JUMP OUT OF MY SKIN! It made me cry...I was so full of joy... Michael's music just does that to the body, spirit and soul.. long live MJJ!

  • The world will forever agree to disagree, our differences make us human individuals. Or else we would have the exact same cityscapes worldwide :) I want to thank you for posting this video and for the work you did to make it more viewable in richer tones and color. I just bought a laptop that can view HD Vids and its (pardon my expression) Baddazz. CYFI was the first test vid.. Amazing.. Have a great day.

  • My God..... This is amazing.....

  • wow, speechless. thank you.

  • omg - its great, really but: is it really necessary to wait for the video almost 2 minutes??? MJ forever! greets

  • This is beautiful. I haven't seen this since I was a little girl and had no idea about the extra part at the end. That was really special for me as one of my all time favorite videos. You gave me a piece of my childhood back watching this. Too bad people don't realize the meaning in it as the world has grown even more intolerant of differences. This was beautifully done. Thanks Ultimist.

  • Wow! GREAT JOB Ultimist!!!

  • too long an intro, not close to original

  • Love it great work!

  • There is also another video missing on VISION: the live version of Billie Jean from the Victory Tour!

  • I remember this video as a kid. I always thought the sound effects were too loud over the actual music. Great concept video for the day.

  • Pretty cool song.... Back when Mike was normal....LOL...

  • This song was probably the Jacksons best work ever.

  • visually a nice resto...the audio is a youtube issue...

  • Thank you, ever so much!!!!!!!

  • Nice production work and video technique.

  • music videos are not this cool anymore :(

  • that's great! i'm big MJ fan too... i really loved it...

    

  • Hmm, am I the only one, who doesn't like this kind of "restoration"? Okay, finding an original 35mm source and scan it in HD is impossible, but what is important, do not to use a heavy compression and limiting on sound track, which is absolutely unlistenable.

  • @BlueNeon81 Obviously you haven't watched it, and you have failed to realize that it is YouTube who did the re-encoding of both the audio and video. The file I uploaded was huge and the video was pristine, and the audio track was the uncompressed original. So any problems you are finding are due to YouTube's video and audio re-encoding process.

  • @Ultimist Compression doesn't always mean mpeg (or other) compression, it also means compression of dynamics. I wrote: "...do not to use a heavy compression and limiting on sound track, which is absolutely unlistenable" which in translation means: IT'S CLIPPED AND BRICKWALLED AS HELL.

  • @BlueNeon81 Well, my only point is that any change in the audio is YouTube's fault, because I left the original untouched in the video I uploaded to YouTube. I fully understand the difference between the two types of compression. Audio compression (file size) algorithms DO alter the dynamics of the audio... one needn't apply a dynamic range compressor to hear the difference. Anything less than the original, untouched track is going to be different, obviously.

  • @Ultimist I accept that youtube's audio compression may alter the original source audio, well, 128 kbps bitrate isn't very acceptable, but tell me, how is it possible, that in my videos isn't the audio track clipped and brickwalled (only one video presents extremely loud and clipped audio)?

  • i dont know much about what your talking about but i am a Artist and a fan of MJ and ive seen both versions and i like this one the best. thank you keep up the great work

  • @BlueNeon81 Yes.

  • @BlueNeon81 I'd say you are the only one - I think it's fabulous!!!

  • @BlueNeon81 I have to agree on the audio/sound part ... It wasn't what I expected at all ...

  • Hey this is GREAT! I can see what you mean as I own a copy of MJ's Vision. Only one thing, the music on this video is a tad slower than the original version and album versions. How did that happen? Thanks man!

  • This looks good on my phone!! Wonder what it would look like on my 73" t.v.!!!

  • Looks great on my flat screen tv!!!!!

  • I JUST WANNA SAY THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!! I AM MJ'S BIGGEST FAN ...TODAY IS OUR BDAY 8/29 AND I CANT IMAGINE A GREATER GIFT THAN HIS VIDEOS RESTORED !!!

  • where can i sign the petition?

  • @Ryctophaze94 The link is in the video description, just as it says in the video itself. :)

  • Grand job, sir

  • Wow! You did a great job with this. I never thought it could be this clear. Amazing!

  • thank you so much, i had chills the whole way through. I will be subscribing! Sony really needs to get their heads out of the sand!

  • You have done an impressive job, thanks for giving us a glimpse of how things should be done, especially with the legacy of MJ, you have made my day sir! :)

  • cHEAP SONY COULD HAVE DONE BETTER WITH MICHAEL. IMAGINE LEAVING OUT GHOST CAPTAIN EO. BUMS.

  • there should be an official DVD containing J5 videos, and also all their concerts must be released on DVD... thumbs up if u agree

  • @body5436 Don't you mean Blu-ray? DVD is old school now.. :) - Blu-ray would be much better, and the quality would be amazing.

  • amazing

  • a masterpiece of work and it was before its time and does stand the test of time

    wonderful!!

  • Amazing! Thx for restoring this vid. Quality is very good. Just imagine what Sony can do with it though. I have signed the petition.
