Love was taken from a young live
And no one told her why Her direction has a dimlight From one more violent crime She innocently questioned why Why her father had to die She asked the men in blue How is it that you get to choose Who will live and who will die Did god told you you could decide ? You saw he didn't run And then my daddy had no gun In the middle of the village Within a distant land Lies a poor boy with his broken toy To young to understand He's awaken, ground is shaking His father grabs his hand Screaming crying, his wife's dying Now he's left to explain He innocently questioned why Why his mother had to die Why did these soldiers come here for ? If they're for peace why is there war ? Did god say that they could decide Who will live and who will die ? All my mama ever did Was try to take care of her kids When innocence is standing by Watching people loosing lives It seem as if we have no voice It's time for us to make a choice Only god could decide Who will live and who will die There's nothing that can't be done If we raise our voice as one Did god hear it from me ? Did god hear it from you ? Did god hear it from us ? We can't take it We've already had enough Did god hear it from me ? Did god hear it from you ? Did god hear it from us ? We can't take it We've already had enough Thank god I care for me Thank god I care for you Thank god it came from you babe We can't take it We've already had enough Deep in my soul baby Deep in your soul and by your side Deep in my soul It's so big and i'm still alive Did god hear it from us ? We can't take it We've already had enough It's going down baby Just let god decide, It's going on baby Just let god decide Deep in my soul baby We've already had enough Did god hear it from me ? Did god hear it from you ? Did god hear it from us ? We can't, we can't We've already had enough | |

Open to some critique?
The song reminds me alot of Dirty Diana and especially They Don't Care ABout Us. He uses the same build up and almost the same instrumentation. And he is EE-EE-ing his part to the louder part of the song again. Does that AA! and UU! not iiritate you after twenty years? Just curious. This not meant to dis Mr Jackson. I have great respect for his older musical work and some of his later stuff (like Scream). But tracks like We've Had Enough seem unbelievably we've-heard-it-all-before to me. What producers were involved on this song? | |

Excellent!
And while i can see how this reminds of older work (not TDCAU, however ), the song is again unapologetic MJ: pretty typical in message and composition, but still unique. It's almost an opera-popsong. And the Aw's and Uw's work in it. He's even using the hee-hee's to build the song at some point, and again it works. I'll give you the instrumentation and the beat, which are a bit mmm too conventional. Curious who the producer is... "It's better 2 B hated 4 what U R than 2 B loved 4 what U R not."

What producers were involved on this song? Really? That's the thing i like about the cut- the "EE-EE-ing" doesn't irritate me at all. As a fan i've come to expect it, it has become a signature of his. I didn't like Scream all that much tho, and the only song which was outstanding (for me) of Invincible was, "Whatever Happens". I find a lot to like about this latest. | |

BTW "Dirty Diana" is one of my fave songs ever, and i always really liked his look in the vid as well. | |

the last two lines from most all the verses sound surprisingly much like the "Earth Song" build ups. in the latter part of the song I can hear bits of "Stranger In Moscow". still an ok song but nothing spectacular. and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

What producers were involved on this song? I dare you to take the vocals away and say - oh this is just another MJ composition!!! u couldnt possibly!! MJ has such distinctive vocals so it's hard not to compare - the vocals on this are amazing!! (and the E-E's as you put it & 'hiccups' are part of MJ & I love em!!) But hey let's just compare it to a 20 years old song - right!! As a note - should also hear the earlier demo 'scared of the moon' in full - it's amazing!!

For those interested, the credits read:
(Michael Jackson / Rodney Jerkins / LaShawn Daniels / Carole Bayer Sager) "It's better 2 B hated 4 what U R than 2 B loved 4 what U R not."

Doesnt sound overproduced at all which was the case with most songs on invincible. i believe a lot of "bad" and "dangerous" outtakes have been re-used for "history", "botdf" and perhaps also "invincible". so, he could've wrote it by himself. perhaps later rodney jerkins et all added shit, hence the credits. but i also heard "we've had enough" was supposed to be a duet between mike and janet. so, it could be this was intended for "history" and later left off cause "scream" seemed a better pick. but what do i know? don't need no reefer, don't need cocaine
purple music does the same to my brain i'm high, so high | |

Wow, not only the best anti war song released but one of MJ's best songs, totally original vocals, excellently produced fantastic lyrics and emotional storyline. This is why MJ is the King of Pop, in fact this song is of more worth than the entire Invincible album, except Butterflies/Whatever Happens/Speechless!
On the one hand we've got "cinnamon girl" on the other "we've had enough"! MJ is obviously showing P who's boss here! | |

That man has an incredible vibrato!
They gotta here it from me They gotta here it from you They gotta here it from us We can't take it We've already had enough The only thing I don't like is the drum track. Other then that it's superb. | |

Niiiiice. How was this not included on an album? I think of a few songs it could have replaced. Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off | |

It was actually recorded this year. At least finishing touches were put on it this year. I hope it explains in more detail in the booklet. | |

Cool. A brand new joint. So was this originally intended to be a duet with Janet or was that just a rumor? Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off | |

I'm with Gooey on this one - blah. Oh, and I'm with OdysseyMiles too - classic, eh?
Thanks for the download though, I always like to hear what he comes out with. It's just a shame that there hasn't been anything since Scream that I've actually wanted to own. Ah well. No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.

Oh, and this is an anti-War song? Weird. I would never know that from listening to it. No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.
