Smooth Criminal

I downloaded 'Smooth Criminal' on my iPod last night. I can't stop listening to it!! No, it's not the Jackson version. A band remade it named Alien Ant Farm. They made it all alternitive and stuff, so this is my kind of song. Do you remember the lyics? ;o}


As he came into the window
Was a sound of a crescendo
He came into her apartment
He left the bloodstains
On the carpet
She was sitting at the table
He could see she was unable
So she ran into the bedroom
She was struck down
It was her doom

Annie, are you OK?
Are you OK
Are you OK, Annie?
Annie, are you OK?
You OK
Are you OK, Annie?
Annie, are you OK?
You OK
Are you OK, Annie?
Annie, are you OK?
You OK
Are you OK, Annie?

Annie, are you OK?
Will you tell us that you’re OK?
There’s a sign at the window
That he struck you
A crescendo, Annie
He came into your apartment
He left the bloodstains
On the carpet
Then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down
It was your doom

Annie, are you OK?
You OK
Are you OK, Annie?
Annie, are you OK?
You OK
Are you OK, Annie?
Annie, are you OK?
You OK
Are you OK, Annie?
You’ve been hit by
You’ve been struck by
A smooth criminal

So they came into the outway
It was Sunday
What a black day
I could feel your salutation
Sounding heartbeats
Intimidations

Annie, are you OK?
You OK
Are you OK, Annie?
Annie, are you OK?
You OK
Are you OK, Annie?
Annie, are you OK?
You OK
Are you OK, Annie?
Annie, are you OK?
You OK
Are you OK, Annie?

Annie, are you OK?
Will you tell us that you’re OK?
There’s a sign at the window
That he struck you
A crescendo, Annie
He came into your apartment
He left the bloodstains
On the carpet
Then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down
It was your doom

Annie, are you OK?
You OK
Are you OK, Annie?
You’ve been hit by
You’ve been struck by
A smooth criminal

Annie, are you OK?
Will you tell us that you’re OK?
There’s a sign at the window
That he struck you
A crescendo, Annie
He came into your apartment
He left the bloodstains
On the carpet
Then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down
It was your doom

Annie, are you OK?
You OK
Are you OK, Annie?
Annie, are you OK?
You OK
Are you OK, Annie?
Annie, are you OK?
You OK
Are you OK, Annie?
Annie, are you OK?
You OK
Are you OK, Annie?

(My only question is: What's a Crescendo??)

I got Amanda listening to it. She said that she had never heard the song before. (Not even the Jackson version!) So, after everyone was litening to it at lunch today, she listened to it. We had little time left at luch, so she didn't really listen to that much of it. On the bus, I let her listen to the whole thing. She got a smile on her face when she heard the "You've been hit by- You've been struck by- A smooth criminal" Part. She still claims not hearing it before.

You're lucky! I've heard that version before and it's not Satan-y. hahahahehehehehahahahah

Andrea said...

I think he means a crescendo in music where the notes gradually get louder.

Still lovin me some MJ!

I'll check out Alien Ant Farm's version - better not be all Satan-y! :)

Hopefully it's not for you. Who knows though.

OliveSoul#4 said...

That's what crescendo means?! Sounds weird to be put in a song like that. How could that leave blood stains on the carpet? =}

Andrea said...

You're right about the carpet thing. Weeeeeeird!

Well it was written by .... MJ. No one ever said he was normal (well maybe he was in the J5 days).

Still, I love MJ!

OliveSoul#4 said...

lol

I guess. Kinda weird. Maybe he put it in the song because he thought it sounded cool.

I watched this video on Youtube..it's good, but of course, I prefer the MJ version! That Alien Ant farm lead singer just freaks me out!

OliveSoul#4 said...

Heh Heh

I just watched it myself. One of my friends said that I sould see it. It was awesome!

Andrea said...

Did you freeze your buttocks off waiting for the bus today?

OliveSoul#4 said...

Mom took us to the bus stop in the car, which helped. The bus was warm too, so I was only cold for a little bit.

Andrea said...

Did you wear your new winter coaty?

OliveSoul#4 said...

....No....
*crys*
Don't yell at me!!!!!

Andrea said...

OLIVIA! It's too cold to be wandering around with some flimsy little jacket on!

Andrea said...

Totally diggin yer new layout!

OliveSoul#4 said...

All I had was a hoodie! (Hey! I'm being honest here!)

Thanks. Are the icons showing up?? It wont show them here at school, which is gay.

Andrea said...

There's a Naruto pic at the top and an eye with a heart shaped pupil on down the page. Is there anything else?

OliveSoul#4 said...

That's it! Thank you!

OliveSoul#4 said...

Are you gonna change yours? At all? I could do it for you when ever you'd like.

Andrea said...

Am I'm going to change my blog template? Yeah one of these days I'll spend the time to find one I like.

Did your daddy get good pictures of the eclipse? You should put em on your blog!

OliveSoul#4 said...

Yeah, he got some pictures.

I'll try to put them on. You have to resize them 'cause they're so big, and remember: my photoshop sucks, so I'll try.

I like Alien Ant Farm's version of Smooth Criminal. Nothing will ever compare to MJ's early stuff, but they did a pretty good job.

I remember watching the Thriller video at Aunt Jill's house one night on MTV while Andrea was babysitting us girls over there....I think we all got scared.....pretty funny, but good memories!!

OliveSoul#4 said...

oh. Mom has the eclipse pics on her blog.

~x~

I remember crying at the Thriller video!! Dude! Cuz one Halloween, I was scared to go get candy from a wolf guy. Everyone else I was with went up there, but I didn't because I was scared. lol.

Andrea said...

Jill was always cool cause she paid for MTV! Yeah baby!
