the Anita Baker version 
I heard that the songwriter (Rod Temperton) originally offered this song to Michael Jackson during the 'Thriller' sessions.I wonder if there's a demo version featuring Michael's vocals? | |

I would love to hear M.J sing this! Janis Siegel is a truly wonderful vocalist, but the song fits Baker`s voice better  | |

I like both but I think Anita edges this one out. For some reason, I can't imagine MJ singing this at all.
But now that I know this there is a portion during the bridge that reminds me of a tiny piece in Off the Wall. Guess that's Temperton. Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off | |

I like them both but I think Anita edges Manhattan Transfer out. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |
