Love it. Love the lyrics! It´s just soooo beautiful, honest.
"When Michael Jackson is just singing and dancing, you just think this is an astonishing talent. And he has had this astounding talent all his life, but we want him to be floored as well. We really don´t like the idea that he could have it all."

Twas a single cassette release during the Dangerous tour as some Pepsi promo. It was used as an instrumental during the tour too. Now it's on The Ultimate Collection box set.

Well today's your lucky day.

The song is available to download for 99 cents at the iTunes Music Store (both Canada and the USA).

It's one of the few "new tracks" available to download from The Ultimate Collection (Thank you Michael!)

Get it while it's hot.

lol

you keep coming off like a buffoon lately.

MJ wrote this tune. He writes on nearly all of his tunes and plays instruments on some of them, too.

I admit I only have Off the Wall and Thriller, but I don't see much in the way of credits to him for playing any of the instruments. So educate me, which albums/tracks did he play on, and what instruments? Got a link?

He's played on numerous tracks, albeit he is not a skilled instrumentalist to the level of Prince or Stevie Wonder... but it's easy to search for these things yourself... sorry!

Until I see Michael Jackson play an instrument with my own eyes, I won't believe a word that's in his credits. We all know how artists can manipulate the credits on their albums; Prince did it all the time with his proteges. We all know how obsessed with status and image MJ was (is); is it too hard to imagine that he paid someone to play a song on his CD and took musical credit for it?

lol You claim he's played on numerous tracks, but you can't give a single example?

He may have slapped a bongo or something, but he's never actually played keyboards, bass, guitar, drums, a horn, etc. on any track he's ever recorded. I've seen one picture of him playing the piano at his home, but never onstage or in the studio.

Anyway, he's highly accomplished in enough areas (singer, dancer, songwriter, and entertainer in general) that there's no need to embellish him by claiming he's something he isn't!

i agree. come on fellow mj fans, give it up, michael is not a musician. so stop trying to prove he is. the only thing that annoys me is when people try to claim michael doesnt make up or write the music or lyrics to any of his songs

Michael plays guitar, keyboard and drums. Actually, Greg Phillanganes thought Mike should play either guitar or piano at a concert, but MJ was too nervous.
