Perhaps R produced the track and Lenny just played a guitar solo ala Slash in "Black or White?" Anyone know the scoop?
 It's tagged. Sometimes when new songs leak, the person that leaked it (mostly DJ's) tags it like that. You may hear a song that leaked and hear another artist on it that says "wasup, this is (insert artist name) and you're listening to (insert DJ/radio/mixtape name)" | |

Having seen footage of Michael and his brothers before Motown they were really raw, so do you think Motown and then the move to Epic made them too polish and slick, which I think took away from Michael latter performances.
i think so..i preferred em "raw" [Edited 1/2/10 9:11am] I think Motown "polished" and "popped" them up quite a bit. Not that I think that was a bad thing. I think that had a lot to do with MJ making the decision later, that he didn't just want to be an R & B singer. But for me, I loved the "raw" and can't get enough of that vintage clip. I always thought they did a fantastic job singing that cover. [Edited 1/2/10 21:22pm] | |

Given that, now my question is, does that mean R leaked it? Because Lenny has a song called "Storm" with nearly the exact same lyrics. What is the story of this leaked track?

It seems like it's going to be included on a mixtape R. Kelly and some DJ is hosting, that's all. "Another Day" is from the Invincible sessions "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." | |

I think Michael and Lenny did it together, then Lenny reworked it, retitled it, and released it on Baptizm "Storm", by the way, is my favorite Lenny Kravitz song "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." | |

Michael Jackson feat. Lenny Kravitz - Another Day  Don't know about the song based on a short snippet, not really my sound I guess. But the vocals are killer indeed. The delivery and the melody in the verses remind me of Prince's 'Boom'. Do you think Prince might have heard it and stole it? I think he had an obsession with MJ. Or was is the other way around? 
Relax guys, just kidding.
Anyway, it often amazed me how this often fragile looking man with this soft voice could sing up such a storm. Hey loudmouth, shut the fuck up, right? |

She’s out of my life Billie Jean is not in your Top 50? No really. I am not into his hits. THe bigger the hit, the less I like it cause it´s been way too overplayed, so I hardly listen to these songs, but you can bet I do enjoy it that more when I hear it. I LOOOOOVED hearing Billie Jean on TII. That was one of my favourite moments.
I'm another fan that wouldnt have it it my top 50. If it was the first time I heard it I would most likely be able to place it somewhere in the top 50, but its been played to death, and I just cant be objectionable about it. I turn it over whenever I hear it.
Yeah, my sentiments, exactly. angel345, you´re the first person who put She drives me wild on No.1. I so adore that song. It would definately be one of the songs I´d consider to be No.1. for me. At the new song. I want it! Along with Place with No Name!!"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." | |

Yep. One thing I'd love to know is how much Stevie's version differed from the arrangement that Quincy did. I know the version Stevie has performed live prior to MJ's passing is way more jazzy, whereas Quincy seemed to slow it down a bit and make it more smooth. | |

As to "Another Way", it sounds great. It kinda reminds me of Lenny's own "Believe In Me" from the same time period. And that was my favorite song from "Lenny". Remember a smile is the quickest way to improve your apperance... | |
