Michael Jackson - Who's looking for a lover

one of my favourites of the 'Looking back to yesterday' lp

Lyrics:

Who's looking for a lover?
Who's looking for a lover?

Early this morning while I was yawning
I got a warning thought
Somebody near me who doesn't fear me
Knows things I ain't been taught

Somebody older somebody bolder
Wants to get hold of me, yeah
Somebody smart wants my young heart
Our will is done, our will is done

Who's looking for a lover?
Who'll pick me out from all the crowd?
What thrills will I discover?
Will I be scared or do myself proud?

Who's looking for a lover?
Who's looking for a lover?

Maybe some honey just wants my money
Hey that's a funny tought
Someone appealing could set me reeling
And get my feeling caught

Somebody older somebody bolder
Wants to get hold of me, yeah
Somebody strong help me belong
Answer my song, answer my song

Who's looking for a lover?
Who wants to know what I can do?
Who's looking for a lover?
I'm looking everywhere for you

Somebody older somebody bolder
Wants to get hold of me, yeah
Somebody strong help me belong
Answer my song, answer my song

Who's looking for a lover?
Who'll pick me out from all the crowd?
What thrills will I discover?
Will I be scared or do myself proud?

this song should have originally published.

But we're glad that the song has finally been recorded.

Love it!

I'm sure there are so many more songs in the motown vaults that could have been on an album but were never released.

[fandejackson]

where did you get this ?

[kiekerc]

from the lp 'looking back to yesterday' but I think it's also available now on this new motows cd 'Michael Jackson: Gold' but I'm not sure

[MiamiPush2theLimit]

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.

[jackson5love]

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.
