The song, from the Thriller album, was released long before Nichols was born.
Since being posted to YouTube on Wednesday it has been viewed more than 2.3 million times.
MTV News declared Nichols “does Michael Jackson better than Michael Jackson’s hologram” — a reference to the “Slave to the Rhythm” performance on Sunday’s Billboard Music Awards.
