Micheal Jackson's "Ben". A song b a young Micheal Jackson "Ben". I haven't heard it in years so I listened to it a few times today, tryin' to get the whole feel of the song. And I like the song. Micheal used some great vocals in the song. Hit a few good high notes. Did Micheal write this song? What was he like 11,12 when he recorded this song? Good song considering the fact that I beleive it was about his pet mouse or rat, or whatever. Or was it even a pet, was it just a house rat that was in the house. But good song tough. Anybody else dig this song.
I found Mike singing it on YouTube at age 13 - I think he's lip-syncing. http://www.youtube.com/wa...Sqo17o2a1w Some people think I'm kinda cute
But that don't compute when it comes 2 Y-O-U. | |

Mike's first number one (solo hit) in 1972 of the LP of the same name. Mike didn't right it and was 13 when he recored it.
There were actually 2 album covers made, the original with rats and the one right after that (because of complaints). The rat cover goes for a ton of money on eBay and other sites. BEN LIVE http://www.youtube.com/wa...QyvQWrGE1g [Edited 6/29/07 16:16pm] PRINCE: Always and Forever

I always liked that song. I always just looked past the rat and applied it to anyone that is different or misunderstood. "Did u love somebody
But got no love in return? Did u understand the real meaning of love? That it just is and never yearns" ...Prince | |

I'm sure the doctors at the ER that you always end up at know why you love them so much.  [Edited 6/29/07 22:41pm] The Most Important Thing In Life Is Sincerity....Once You Can Fake That, You Can Fake Anything. |

That was the video I was talkin' about. But I couldn't put my finger on where I saw it from. It was a movie better yet. Some people think I'm kinda cute

Future advice... When you are trying to make a smart remark/reply.. make sure what you're saying to the person makes sense |
