Whereas "I Can't Help It" is poetic... but different strokes for different folks. I love delirious! "Tito pass me a tissue"! Eddie sang She's Out Of My Life great. "Jermaine, stop teasing!" | |

It's funny U all mention "Girlfriend" to compare to "I Can't Help It." I can listen to that song (I think it's really cute. ), although it's not one of my favorites. But I'll admit, the only song I usually skip on OTW is "It's The Falling In Love." *Shudders negatively* I've disliked that one since I was 6 years old, and I still can't acquire a taste for it, LOL. What! No way. It's the Falling in Love is great. Would you be more shocked If I considered it better than 'Workin Day and Night'? I forgot to mention I think that's second worst song The intro is great but it when downhill from there. I think the demo actually sounded much better. | |

That and "Girlfriend" is a'ight in terms of vocal approaches. Both of them "bubblegum" compared to the rest of OTW. But I kinda love "It's the Falling in Love" though. Maybe it's the soft rock/R&B mix of it though "Girlfriend" is technically that too. There are things to like about both though. I did like the bass in "Girlfriend", lol. I don't hate either song but compared to the others... uh-uh... still doesn't take away that it's one of Michael's finest moments in his long career. And yeah, the bass in "Girlfriend" is hot. Especially that quick intro line. "You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup...Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend." - Bruce Lee

It can't be because of Randy and Janet playfighting? Right? | |

I think he was Q's studio bassist at the time. Except for "Rock With You," LJ is on every track (as well as on 5 out of 9 songs on Thriller).

It can't be because of Randy and Janet playfighting? Right? Nah. I think the slightly slower pace and the stronger sound of the bass and instruments was better. In the final version I think the faster pace combined with the long verse lead up up to the chorus didn't work well. When you finally get to the chorus the excitement is not there. I can't really explain it that well. I also don't like the sound of the 'And I'll Be Workin' From Sun Up To Midnight' part that much. | |

I have to admit I laughed when he tried to sing the verses because he was mumbling and screaming "OOH!" | |

Before I go, I'll say the 'workin working day and night' verse
and Chorus especially ain't doing it for me. They should of kept the more prominent bassline and reduce the other instrumetns. | |
