  • @Amore2010ad Really cause the last time I checked the only time MJ didn't realease a song that had did with another artist was State of Shock with Freddy Mercury.

  • @gagamichaeljackson there is a whole of artist that Mj recorded with then got his lawyers to pull the songs. many of these artist were very angry with him for wasting their time. Akon was the last one with Hold my hand. that got released as an Mj song. Tell Me I'm not dreaming was a duet for Jermaine and Whitney. Mj wanted it and Jermaine obliged, the song was headed for number one, but Mj put the brakes on it. Again blaming his lawyers. Arista sneaked it out as a B's side ..

  • @Nickleby2 When I read about why the song didn't get released it said it was a conflict between the two record labels.U r making MJ seem like a cold hearted person like he doesn't care about anyone.

  • @gagamichaeljackson That has always been the excuse, but the Arista record label and people in the know tells a different story. you have to be ruthless to stay at the top for as long as Mj did, and there is documented evidence to say that Mj was that, esp when it came to his family members. Do some reserch and you will find it documented there. he was powerful and he often use that power to get what he wanted. LisaMarie said when he was good he was but .... he was very bad.

  • Mike murders it...who wrote it?

  • this one dude tried to tell me Jermaine was a better singer than Michael YEEEEA RIGHT! that's why he took the lead from Jermaine lol

  • @Robinson11 is all this really necessary? Can't you just enjoy the music that they give you? if you don't like Jermaine singing then you shouldn't be here, scram. jermaine's fans want to listen to the song in peace.

  • I love this song by the Jacksons!~

  • Michael killed it

  • No comments on here in a year? I guess that slightly more recent upload is getting all the clicks.

    I'm Not Dreamin

  • @ThisIsWEB remember a radio station called laser 558 they got me into this tune and it was and still is a cracker should be released now with maybe a heavier remix seeings it didn't get it's chance back then

  • the best song of jermaine!x

  • i just play this video by Michael Jackson actually i don't care about Jermaine, Michel Is the Man

  • @RickAstley25 Then f*ck off, this songs from a Jermaine Jackson album. What do you do when you listen to this song, fast forward the bits where Jermaine is singing? Do you only listen to the chorus on the Rockwell song 'Somebody's Watching Me'?

    You MJ fanboys just crack me up. I'm a fan of MJ's music up until about 1995 when he started to lose it musically, been to see him live at Wembley Stadium too, but even I have limits.

    Other artists are available...

  • everything looks so high definition compared to the picture

  • its like electric dance lube.

  • @grubeci

    hahahaha, I'm gonna use that one!

  • hi this is now available to download via amazon uk, i have just downloaded mine!!!!!!

  • Man....this song is great. This song should have been bigger than it was

  • This song appeared on the flip side of the hit single "do what you do"

  • Comment removed

  • i remember this song was it not a b side of a single cant remember which was the a side ?

    jermaine and michael should of done more together they did a awesome job on this track (if anyone can tell me if they did anymore tracks let me know (northern_soul@live.co.uk

  • Classic!

  • I remember buying the forty-five of this when I was a kid, only to find out Michael's verses were deleted from the single pressing. Bummer.

  • oh michael ;].

  • If Clive Davis hadn't had hie ego on the line, Jermaine would have released this with Whitney houston. Then folks who truly appreciate Jermaine's voice over Michael's would have had a chance to buy the single! It is not that Michael is better, its that label owners are (don't use that word child" holes! Berry Gordy should have kapt Jermaine!

  • @peskied Why didn't Clive Davis insist that Jermaine duet the song with Whitney? It was a mistake for Jermaine to do it with Mj. All jermaine's work with Whitney has been pure classic, and there is no nuisance posters claiming that Whitney is better. Music lovers just come and enjoy the music for what it is.. Just magic.

  • WOW! What a classic joint! Super funky and sexy!

  • Damn I forgot all about this song. This was huge back in '84.

  • RIP TO THE KING OF MUSIC.....

  • BEST MICHAEL VOCAL OF ALL TIME

  • damn i have not heard this in forever love this song, gosh i miss the music from that time

  • @SyrenniaLestrange are u serious omg that crazy

  • @splendidnblended i'll send it to you as soon as possible.

  • how do i download this song??????????? can anyone tell me plsssssss

  • @shailu73 i could send it to you

  • download the free Real Player. Once you download it, everytime your mouse passes over the YouTube screen, you'll see a little Real Player tab pop up saying "download this video" - touch that tab and the Real Player download window will pop up and starting downloading. One it is finished, you want to hit the button to "convert all". Set it up to convert to a MP3 - a music file and where you want it to be stored to - usually your "My Music" folder. Just make sure the sound is quality.

  • beautiful song..never heard about it before.and michael's voice is really good...it's not like Jermaine's is bad but michael is way better.

  • yea michael!

  • Jermaine and Michael

    to good to be true

  • They seriously need to release this to iTunes. I'm going to tweet them and suggest as much. It's one the last time they sang together on record, and it's a shame to not have a quality copy of it.

  • @IrisMG

    That's probably not going to happen. I believe there are copyright/contractual issues regarding the release of this song. Not sure, though.

  • But if you're not sure, why do you believe it?

  • Such a great duet between Michael and Jermaine.

    I LOVE this song and cannot find it on i-tunes. :(

    Where can I get it???

    Love Michael for life. xoxoxo

  • hi man let me tell you where you can find this song look for it in ares venezuela answering have a nice day

  • i can sens it to you.

  • @stevendany100 Good luck finding it, because it was never released as a single due to difficulties between Michael's lable Epic and Jermains label Arista. That suxs huh. Great song!!!!

  • i can send it to you.

  • i bought mines on amazon<and it was good quality.Yeah this song rocks.

  • i cant tell who is who

  • its something out of sight how were not you to know who is who they 're one of the best of the world .answering venezuela

  • Oh, cool song!!!

  • the whole jackson family are the best musical family/group

    R.I.P Michael Jackson

  • I wish I were dreaming that Michael was dead, and then I wake up and HE's STILL ALIVE. - wouldn't that be the greatest!!?? If we all were having a terrible dream, and we awoke to find our beloved Michael still alive!!!!!

  • What the hell :L I think its Jermain who is lucky to have such a famous brother as Michael.. not the other way round :L lmao

  • @XxXsomeonelovesyouXx ROTFLMAO

     I think Michael was lucky to have a brother who could duet with Whtiney Houston!

  • @peskied michael could have dueted with whitney if he had wanted :P

  • @peskied Well can't you say that Jermaine was lucky to have a brother who could duet with Paul McCartney,Mick Jagger,and Freddy Mercury.

  • @gagamichaeljackson Just as Mj was lucky to have a brother that dueted with Whitney Houston, Stevie Wonder, Syreeta, Rita coolidge, etc...

  • @Nickleby2 Who cares who dueted with who why does that matter.Jermaine dueted with people and so has MJ.

  • @gagamichaeljackson the siong was written for Jermaine's album. he wanted to do it with Whitney who would have gladly obliged. The song would have been a sure number one for Jermaine. he made a mistake by giving it to Mj, now all you hear when you come to listen is rabbid Mj fans talking about how much Mj is better. it is sickening. i don't here that when i go to listen to Jermaine and Whitney, all I hear is compliments for the two of them and people enjoying the music.

  • @Nickleby2 Okay I get u don't like MJ and that's fine,but Jermaine isn't perfect either.If u feel like Jermaine made a mistake by dueting with his brother,then that's fine.

  • @gagamichaeljackson I LOVE The jacksons. ALL of them. that doesn't mean I cannot be objective or not have preferences, and yes, I prefer jermaine's music to any other jacksons.

  • @Nickleby2 And i prefer MJ's and Janet's music over any other Jackson,but u made a comment saying that MJ didn't love his family unless he was in a crisis.That is BULLSHIT because MJ loved them they just didn't love him.Like Latoya,MJ produced a song for her and did backing vocals for her on that same song and she turned against him.Same goes for Jermaine what did MJ do to Jermaine that was so hurtful.Jermaine did a song about MJ and it really hurt MJ's feelings,but did Jermaine care.HELL NO

  • @gagamichaeljackson Mj turned on his family in exactly the same way they turned on him. There are enough videos on youtube to prove it. Also, MJ did for the family, but they also did for him. Randy worked very hard on many of Mj's albums even though he was never given credit for them. Janet slaved in the home for him. she had to tend to his evvery need. They were family, and families do turn on each other. that isn't a mystery.

  • @gagamichaeljackson After Mj left Encino, he cutivated a different kind of friends, and adopted new families. Some of those family went on to accuse him of serious things, all of them got millions off of him. yet you hear fans talking about his family milking him. It was his adopted families that were milking him. the jackson family were forever cleaning up the mess but as soon as it was over he abandon them again for the same friends that messed him up before. The rest is ..

  • @Nickleby2 Like I said before u r making seem like MJ was this selfish cold hearted person who didn't give a damn about nobody,but himself.

  • @gagamichaeljackson I think Mj was driven. he wanted to be Number 1 in the world and he wanted no body to stop him. His family were a problem for him because they shared the same fanbase. His people silenced them. , Suddenly all their music was removed from record shops, that is not normal. Janet was asked not to use has last name. So janet did an album entitled, Janet. yes, it is well documented that Mj's people shut down his brothers work... It's documented, read it.

  • @Nickleby2 Really cause the last time I checked MJ was the one that encouraged Janet when she first started singing and she even said it herself,but like I said I'm done with this dumb ass conversation.We both made it clear that u like Jermaine and I like MJ.

  • too good to be true

  • awesome song,,, r.i.p michael the legend xx

  • lol

  • can't....stop....dancing!!

  • This song is AWESOME. I remember loving this in high school!

    xoxoxoxo

  • this is the shit

  • O nevermind didn't read description

  • Does any one know if this is actually in an album

  • I used to have a album (cassette tape) of Michael Jackson with this song :) Say Say Say was another song that was there in the same album.

  • i love jermaine jackson! <3

    awesome song too! (:

  • This sounds so 1984, and not even 1983 or 1985. 1984

  • good call

  • This song came out the year I was born, cool! I like it, its good that they made music together again.

  • That is unbelievable indeed...But Mike sure made up with the American Awards didn't he? lol...

  • my baby, MJ and Jermaine killin' it!!!

  • Wow...I use love this song ,by Jermaine and featuring my boyfriend Michael(,just kidding ,I wish).I was so hot...I miss the 80's people.

  • I miss the 80's people too...especially Michael Jackson...

    but also the "old" Whitney...

  • especially old whitney!!!! preach

  • lol at your boyfriend. yeah i miss 80s 90s too

  • This is sooooo hot!

  • Amazing I just love this song since it came out. Love love this song.

  • I love Jermaine.

  • This song is a Master Piece. The Jacksons are Best That Ever did it. The best.

  • I love, love, love this song. I never knew Jermaine was the other singer in this song. Wow!!! Time flies. I was in the 4th grade when this came out.

  • jermaine j you have always been my favorite. i wish you would sing again. DO WHAT YOU DO.

  • im more ive been lesoning to michael and jermaines music for like ever.(and my little daughter shes 9)

  • No, I'm a bigger fan than you.

  • albsurelove try limewire they have it

  • This song is from the self titled album simply titled ''Jermaine Jackson'' in 1984 on Arista Records. It was re-released on cd in 2005. This great album/cd features the hits Dynamite, Do What You Do,Take Good Care Of My Heart w/ Whitney Houston and of course ''Tell Me I'm Not Dreaming.

  • Michael and Jermaine sound great in this AWESOME jam!

  • this is a good ass song

  • I LVOE THIS.I need this song on my Ipod. CAn't find it anywhere, NO Itunes or nothing...

  • This song was never released as a single commercially..There are promo 12" singles floating around, but are hard to come by.

  • But it was played all over the radio.

  • You're absolutely right. This song reached #3 on the ARC charts (an airplay-only based national chart), and in Billboard it hit #1 for 3 weeks on the Dance/Club Play chart! If released as a commercial single it would have been a

    Top 5 single, possibly #1. It was supposed to be released but Epic refused to allow Arista to do it, as they were concerned that it would compete with the Victory album and confused buyers.

  • I love hearing Jermaine and Michael singing together, but MJ definitely adds that certain flavor! In the days after MJ's death(It's still hard to type or say that word concerning MJ) I watched a lot of interviews with Jermaine & other family members, they all seemed to be a peace with Michael's level of fame. I am sure that they would have loved it for themselves, but they seemed to have really admired MJ. At least that's the way it came across. I know that every family has its struggles. RIP MJ

  • Jermaine is good in his own right . But shouldn't have done anything with Michael who totally overshadows him !

    Or whatever you call it ;P

  • @YoMissTinkerbell Disagree with you on that one!

  • He was sexy! Hot body, good looks, with intense energy, sexy voice. Hes sexiness and was natural, not fake.

  • daym u sed wt woz on my mind! sistaaaa loool! or brother heee-heeeee!

  • Sexiness is highly subjective of course. I thought was very sexy back in the day. So there! :P

  • Is Still Sexy! Considering that not much riles me up these days. Dat ai's subjective: That! D@#$ sexy!

  • I forgot about this one. I remember loving this song in 1984 when I just turned 18. Wow, the time has really passed by and I still feel great.

  • i was europe at the time in 84 its was big there

  • I love this song! And when Michael's vocals kick in, I simply melt!

  • I got mad props for Jermaine. For him to gracefully allow Michael to sing lead back in the days of the Jackson 5 considering that they're are brothers and not develop some sort of sibling rivalry/hatred....that's love. And it's always a treat to hear the two of them sing together.

  • Lovely song. Love JJ.

    But you gotta admit.

    Its more of a MJ feat. JJ.

  • wow, i was looking for this on Itunes today and couldnt locate it I knew it would be on Youtube. Thanks for uplaoding.

    I was 9 when I was used to jam this song back in the day. I MISS GOOD MUSIC!!!!

    MUSIC does not compare to what we were blessed with 20 plus yrs ago.

    MISS MJJ. :(

  • nice song but michael totally upstages jermaine with his incredibly sexy voice!!!

  • The same way he upstaged paul mccartney on their duets together. There was just something about MJ that no one else has, he has the power to draw you in.

  • sounds like he is say tell me im not trippen

  • Robert Palmer's version is the jam!!!

  • i forgot this song!! this and dynamite are jermaine best song

  • Don't forget- Do what you do

  • Siiiiiighhhhhhhh. Beautiful song.  Do what you do really shows off his voice.

  • wow, this was 2 years before I was born, but i still love it!

  • That is the thing about good music.

    It is timeless.

  • Great song, and great lyrics too. You should really check them out! I used to hear this sometimes back in 1984. I thought it was very cool. Still love Sweetest Sweetest! Always keep the 12 inch ready for me.

  • For some reason I had this song on my mind today and I just had to find it

  • I was watching the video for this song this morning.

  • Before, my computer went left, I was saying that I was watching the video for this song just this morning and had to to find it on the internet as well.

  • I loved this song when it first came out and I still love it 25+ years later....proof that good music withstands the test of time!

  • Awesome tune!!

  • I was being busy being born back then. but...i do like it. :D because it's the jackson brothers!!!! love them.

  • my gosh i used to love this song

  • I was 10 when this came out too LOL

  • Damn they sound good togehter!

  • Awesome tune, thx a lot for posting.

  • This is much better than Robert Palmer's version.

  • I love this song for the simple fact Michael is here doing his thing.

    Not too many people know about this song...so I consider this a treat.

  • This song was out when I was ten yrs. old in 1984! It was big back then. I loved it as well as all of Jermaine and MJ's songs...

  • Me too! I remember being 10 and got this album (album, mind you) and played it to pieces! This and Thriller. Yikes.

  • Love this tune.

  • Good Stuff. Way to go Jermaine. I still love this song.
