Alright, I finally recorded the singing for this song, and i was suprised that I didnt need to vocode it at all, just used an old harmonics feature from an old 90's program my uncle gave me.
I may have overused the really high voice, but whatever i guess, (UPDATE: mist high stuff removed) I thought it sounded funny.
I also need to get a Microphone, The mic I used was built into the computer, so the sound of the fan in it was almost as loud as my voice, making me have to be very limited on the compressor. Yes, all singing done by me, wow, I didn't know i could sing. (UPDATE: I found out my rock band mike can record, but theres no way I'm gonna bother re-recording it)

Originally I was just trying to duplicate the original song, but I kind of had my technoey way with it.

Please let me know what I did wrong, the only way I can can improve is by knowing how I suck

God damnit I want a micropitch shifter and a frequency shifter
shit, this song is going to be stuck inm my head for weeks now

And Billie Jean is not my lover, shes just a girl who claims that I am the one.
But the kid is not my son.

This was definitely different man. Wicked remix on this. I liked the high voice. It worked really well for this. There was a bit of clipping, though..but no big deal.
I really liked emphasis on the bass line in the original. I was a little saddened to not hear as much of an emphasis on it here. Although, this was pretty cool anyways.

Author's Response:

haha thanks, yeah, i recorded myself singing about 7 times, only liked 3 takes, and then went through and chose which of the 3 i sang each line best. there were 2 spots where all 3 versions i clipped a letter, but was too lazy to re sing. I tried to emphisise the bassline in the beginning, but ive been working on toniung down my bass lately because it tends to overpower my treble and in the end making my mix feel less "full"

but thanks for the reveiw, enjoy the good critisism

I absolutley love this song, one of my fave songs of all time and i love what you have done with it. The vocals are really really cool and fit the whole techno tune kinda thing to it. Even though at first they soudned a tad strange but they work well. I like the synth and i love the fact you didnt try to do too much with the song as you could of ruined it but its really good.

"Good remix"

Thats one of my favourite Michael Jackson songs so that was a plus!. The way you did was cool as you said the voice, did sound funny but in a very good way. You really did the classic song justice. It was nice with the synch and stuff and the lyrics were nice and clear and i liked the club sound.
Maybe sometimes the voice may has sound funny with the synch you used.

Overall a great remix

One of Mr. Jackson's best tunes and it's been remastered well. I like the way that you've fit your own vocals to the tune.

I'm not sure about the high sounding vocals, as it goes about half an octave too high for my liking, which makes all the difference.

Given this minor issue, you've still produced a top quality tune, that I could certainly come back and listen to over and again.
