yup, such weird lyrics but a great song. WHY NO VIDEO??? sad

For years,I have always wondered why he didn't do a video for all the 'Thriller' singles? He was the King of Music Videos back then.Imagine videos for these singles:

Wanna Be Startin' Something
Human Nature
The Girl Is Mine
P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing)

Maybe he didn't want to become over-exposed? Supposedly,that's why he didn't appear in any of the 'Victory' videos with his brothers.

andyd	That'll be the bit that MJ stole from Manu Dibango's 1972 classic 'Soul Makossa' - MJ settled out of court after Manu's lawyers claimed that he had stolen the melody !!! Great song though - both Manu's and MJ's

Great song though - both Manu's and MJ's cool

I forgot about that. I remember seeing that on some MJ documentary years ago. I'm sure that Quincy must have been aware of Manu Dibango from Q's earlier jazz career, and I wouldn't be surprised if Michael dug the rhythms on 'Soul Makossa' and others. Naughty Michael! biggrin

uPtoWnNY	I miss those days when Michael was the baddest entertainer on the planet. Even Prince couldn't touch him.

Yeah, and to think i`ve had the "Thriller" album for at least 6 years, and didn`t "discover" this song before today!! disbelief

And I'm so shortsighted, that I just assume everyone knows this album inside and out as I do.

me too,
ps...that was the jam

...it's groovy baby flower

Harlepolis	Either I'm crazy outta my skull or I've seen the video for "Human Nature" It was an illustrated storyline starring MJ, thats all I remember. Don't know if its a promo vid or an official video. But I'm positive that I've seen it.
