“He stole a lot of songs. [Donna Summer’s] ‘State of Independence’ and ‘Billie Jean’. The notes don’t lie, man. He was as Machiavellian as they come.”- Quicy Jones
One of my other 😍 favs. Rip Donna's, May Jesus Christ keep your rest! I forgot about this song, I pray for those who have left us, but their music lives on. We must always acknowledge the gifts and talents given by God and thank him for all of them.
The synth of Donna becomes the bass of Michael. Maybe you should listen to the transition between the songs again. The structure around the song is different but the spinal cord is connected.
Think that Summer in 1982 was as the top of her fame (all the greatest sings in this song for her) instead Jackson was at the biginning of international fame. Ps Billie Jean is 1883, not 1982!
Who ever did their make up back then knew they were dead wrong. That’s not even close to her skin tone. Had her looking like a ghost when u can see her natural tone in her hair line
Then you are missing the point. It is the synth of Donna’s song that is re-used as the bass for Michael’s song. The songs are different but the core DNA was taken by Quincy and Michael from Donna’s song. Listen to the transition part again where it goes from one to the other and the synth is slowed down.
And the meaning is missed by SO many -- the State of Independence means independent of relying on our heavenly Father. To those with eyes to see (satanic symbolism), and ears to hear ... with discernment.
Stop believing in ancient, archaic, religious mythology. It's 2021, for goodness sake. Gods, satan, angels, talking snakes, etc. They're NOT actually real.

You are wrong, another jealous. He always gives credit to those he immitated . He perfected most dance steps, he made everyone know of the dance steps too. Just get out. Don't why people don't give credit where due.
@@ritadaniel7132 I wonder where is the credit on any of his videos to Bob Fosse? because there's not one. You are another obsessed fanatic lier, jealous of people who speak the truth. MJ was a heartless thieve!
RIP King and Queen. ,🙏
Yes !
Donna was simply incredible!!!!!
I noticed most of the celebs singing backup for Donna were also on We Are the World.
SOI was released in 1981. 4 years before WATW. Quincy had that much juice back then
Billie. Jean. Iconica❤
Everybody takes from everybody Michael is no exception
It was the other way around
@@tracistaples2004 Donna's song came out 2 years before billie jean..

R.I.P MICHAEL JACKSON
Nada. A. Ver. Nada. Igual. Viva. Michael o. King😊
Mike made it better..... he made that bassline FUNKY
@@R_G-ok2od That is false. He had every instrument in his head.
@@R_G-ok2odhe had it in his scratch vocal demos where he used his voice to mimic the bassline he did that on his own

I don't see where this sounds like Billy Jean at all
Same

His Quincy kidding????? These two songs sound NOTHING alike!!!

Billie Jean tempo is a faster version of State of Independence
Wangan highway sounds way more like Billie Jean

Billie Jean is from 1982 album thriller, its single version is from 1983

It’s the flash of the camera that accentuats the difference
Good video. That bassline is definately copied
Sounds like Quincy sampled the beat......not Michael. Quincy was the producer. He just being petty towards Mike.
No they co-produced together
@@Mr.LongLegzna buddy lol quincy in those times ran it quincy wanted no one to leave his side
@@fabolousjada5070MJ also co produced it lol he created the song himself if we’re talking about Billie Jean
I don’t think the 2 songs sound alike at all.

At all. They don't even match. I don't understand what they are trying to do here
O.K. the repeated 8-notes-bass-pattern is the same.But otherwise? Even the chords are different.
Thats not a base its a key board
Donna’s synth becomes Michael’s bass
Was there a lawsuit?
Rubbish. Long live the King.
❤beautiful y mastered
Jon Anderson is God

Go on with that crap. The both were children if the most high. Jehovah Elohim and Yeshua.

SHUT UP AND GET A LIFE!
Definitely, taken and not credited for!!
I like how they slowed down the beat and flipped it. Original song was wack
What you even talking about??
MJ stole everything from others, even the dancing.
You are wrong, another jealous. He always gives credit to those he immitated . He perfected most dance steps, he made everyone know of the dance steps too. Just get out. Don't why people don't give credit where due.
Don‘t forget that the people he imitated were inspired by someone.
@@dryades1 NOPE, Bob Fosse din't stole a single move at anyone. MJ was a heartless thieve.
