"Shout" by MJ fucking rules!!!

As mentioned in our Invincible discussion, Shout is one of MJs most hardcore and unknown tracks.

His vocal rhythms are off the fucking chart! He needs to do an entire record like this. His chops are ridiculous.

Why didn't he at least make this a Maxi-single?

I only heard it about once. But u made me play it just now. Yeah its pretty hot. But u need a lyrics sheet LOL. Yeah I did glance over it but went striaght to the sublime "streetwalker" (on the same single as "cry")

Good god, mike can do everything. I like the break in the middle. Its corny, but it works as a nice breather from all the madness. A real riot song is this.

Teddy on duty too. Good 'ol teddy. I guess mike didn't call jam and lewis for "invincible" wink

Yes, it's most definitely a top notch effort. A great shame it didn't make it onto invincible.

May i add, that it just 1 of the many bad decisions made to exclude this from invicible. The other being on not releasing "Whatever Happens" as a single.

SHOUT

Verse
Ignorance of people purchasing diamonds and necklaces,
And barely able to keep the payments up on their lessons,
And enrolled in a class and don’t know who the professor is,
How low people go for the dough and make a mess of things,
Kids are murdering other kids for the fun of it,
Instead of using their mind or their fist, they put a gun in it
Wanna be a part of a clique, don’t know who’s running it,
Tragedy on top of tragedy you know it’s killing me.
So many people in agony, this shouldn’t have to be,
Too busy focusing on ourselves and not His Majesty,
There has to be some type of change for this day and age,
We gotta rearrange and flip the page,
Living encaged like animals and cannibals,
Eating each other alive just to survive the nine to five,
Every single day is trouble while we struggle and strive
Peace of mind’s so hard to find.

Chorus
I wanna shout, throw my hands up and shout
What’s this madness all about
All this makes me wanna shout
You know it makes me wanna shout,
Throw my hands up and shout
What’s this madness all about
All this makes me wanna shout, c’mon now

Verse 2
Problems, complications and accusations
Dividing the nations and races of empty faces
A war is taking place.
No substitution for restitution, the only solution for peace
Is increasing the height of your spirituality.
Masses of minds are shrouded, clouded visions
Deceptions and indecision, no faith or religion, how we’re living.
The clock is ticking, the end is coming, there’ll be no warning,
But we live to see the dawn.

Bridge
How can we preach, when all we make this world to be
Is a living hell torturing our minds.
We all must unite, to turn darkness to light,
And the love in our hearts will shine.

Verse 3
We’re disconnected from love, we’re disrespecting each other
Whatever happened to protecting each other
Poisoned your body and your soul for a minute of pleasure,
But the damage that you’ve done is gonna last forever.
Babies being born in the world already drug addicted and afflicted,
Family values are contradicted.
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust, the pressure is building and I’ve had enough.
Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off

We've never heard Michael actually rap on a song really, we've heard money, Jam and all the rest of em, but he isnt exactly spitting some verses like that. I think this is the track were he's the closest to actually rapping on a song then he's ever been.
