stevie wrote" Tell me something good" for Rufus& Chaka Khan,he wrote "It's a Shame" for The Spinners,plus other song for various artist,so how can he do a cover of his own song? Just a thought......they were both child prodigies,but Stevie was always "hangin"n the studio listening to Jamerson, Marvin on drums at times,Ivy Jo Hunter etc. they would show him time singnatures,because Stevie could play whatever he heard,and he heard a lot down in the"Pit"...........PEACE2U ;-}
People here are reminding others not to forget that Stevie wrote the song while their also forgetting something themselves. Susaye Greene co-wrote this song with Stevie.
Stevie & Michael are both amazing artists and songwriters in their own rights. A little tedious to fight over rather or not this is a cover. Yes Stevie wrote it for Michael. I'm sure Stevie owns the copyright so he can sing it whenever he wants : ).
umm, hopefully i'm not the only one who caught this but, did i hear him call out "Fabolous?" as in the dude that just so happened to rap on a beat that sampled this song? This will need some more investigation.
@bruli59 or they were both singing the song as it was intended. Sorry, song sounds the same for obvious reasons but I do not agree that either was singing like the other. Give them more credit than that.
MA QUALE COVER ??? QUESTA CANZONE L'HA SCRITTA STEVIE WONDER PER MICHAEL JACKSON....LO SANNO ANCHE I SASSI ......CHE FIGURA DI MERDA!!!!

Michael didn't "cover" Steve's song! Stevie didn't release it first, but instead wrote it for Michael. There's a difference.

Stevie wrote the song for Micheal to sing. So really the song goes to both of them.

Stevie wrote this song for Off The Wall, he even says so at the beginningof this video. MJ was actually covering Stevie's demo.
Still thanks for the upload.
