This boy is able to bring tears to anyones eyes.He shines so brightly.I'm so proud that someday I'll be able to say that I lived when this young gentleman ruled the music world.For me,he still rules.He always will.I love you and I miss you babe.
Michael is so cute!!! He is like a huge star that will shine forever and i hope he is looking from up there and getting all the love, the grief (in a positive way)we feel when he left this world.
Michael...you are forever...we will keep spreading your message
yeah, i heard that one... it creeped me out when i first heard it. i think lyrically, 'mama's pearl' is bad enough (have you actually LISTENED to those lyrics?) but the demo of that had my hair standing on in...
and 'love is the thing you need' is another one...
motown pimped him out, for sure... you ever heard the J5 version of 'touch', which the supremes also did? the J5 version made the supremes sound rated G.
despite the lyrics bothering me though, i do like the arrangement of this song. 'looking back to yesterday' was a total motown cash in, but it did prove that they kept some decent stuff in the vaults. the same with the 'soulsation' boxed set. there were some gems there.
Motown made him sing very ADULT lyrics. He was made into a sex symbol at a young age. A mini James Brown to entertain and seduce both adults and children. I'm sure that caused a fair amount of psychological damage.
I saw this comment a while back, and I couldn't agree more. It made me change my feelings towards this song. I love it so much, but it makes me very sad that the harsh reality was that he was singing about things way beyond his years. If you read "Moonwalk", his autobiography, it doesn't take long to realise that the life he began at five, e.g. being exposed to strip clubs with his brothers due to his fathers intense want to make them stars, may have had something to do with the way he was.
omg yes, i love soulsation. i'm sure motown still has many gems, they recently released a J5 album around october and there were some really good songs there. don't forget about the stevie wonder/J5 album they're hiding as well.
I Absolutely love this song by my 1st & last husband. I Love U Michael!!! The Greatest of All Time will NEVA be forgotten but Always Celebrated! RIP Mai Luv.
I love this song! R.I.P king of pop!

that's true, he was working at strip clubs by the age of 6 and he saw alot a kid shouldn't. he had to grow up quick.
7fire7ice7 2 years ago
my heart goes out to him, and any kid who had to do that. no kid should be pimped out like that.

How he said he didn't even know what half of what he was singing was so how could it cause damage?

@xenaslave69 He knew how what he sang and how he danced affected women and girls. Children are very intuitive...

yes... mike learned so much from STEVIE too, when they were at motown. STEVIE was one of his many teachers, and mike was a sponge, for sure.
i can only imagine what motown is hiding in their vaults... or even REMEMBER what's in their vaults...
