Enjoy this amazing Michael Jackson song and all the goodies found in the full, multitrack session with Fil from Wings of Pegasus and myself!
This session is packed with un-comped and alternate vocals, tons of synths, drum parts and layers that make it super fun to solo things out and experience the song in new ways. In this video, we cover mainly the vocals (because there are just so many things to explore with MJs voice alone).
So be sure to check out the session for yourself and dig into the other aspects of this timeless, amazing arrangement!

The first time Michael listened to the complete Thriller album he cried because he thought it sounded horrible. The record company had been applying pressure for him to get it out by a certain date and everything became too rushed, the end product was messy. Michael ended up putting his foot down like he knew how, and they went back in the studio and remixed everything until it became the prized piece of history it is.
He was a true perfectionist .. never happy! After the Motown performance he was crying cuz his toe stand wasn't as long as he wanted!!! AMAZING performer!!❣❣
Yes, they took a day off and came back and mixed it one song per day. The problem was that Billie Jean was originally too long, making the grooves on the record thinner, which affects the playback sound. By making the runtime shorter, the grooves got wider and this improved the bass sound.
He also started to make an album in 1983 but cancelled it when thriller became too popular
I think they actually scrapped everything and re-recorded the entire thing.
@@brandondowdy3291 no they didn’t , just mixed it and changed the length of a few songs.
14:40 15:18 15:40 16:02 "She's keeping him BY keeping him...a-round" this line has eluded me for decades! I could never hear it clear enough until this video 😅
😂😂😂SAME, since the 80s😂😂😂
Yes!!! Me tooooo! Couldn’t ever rewind my Walkman enough to work it out❤
Human Nature is my favorite song in the entire world and since I was a young girl I've always wanted to hear the instrumental and acapella of this song. But to know there are multitracks of this song just sets my soul on fire. I really hope you can make a part two where you take a deep dive into the different instrumentation of Human Nature. You don't know how much I appreciate this video. I love this song so much and would love to hear more if possible. ❤❤❤❤
Michael may not have wrote the song, but he made it more special with his unique vocals and amazing add-libs.
🙌🏾💙💫👑🔥
Right with you sis, my fave of all time too. Magical, mystical, dream-like
Toto members + Michael Jackson is great! Toto members played on a few songs of MJ

Both keys are SOOOOOOOOO PERFECT. HE SINGS LIKE AN ANGEL
I agree!
The way Michael was able to put so put emotion in each syllable is insane
Michael himself is insanely talented. That's why.
Imagine how drained he must have felt after each concert
His Vocals are always so rich & pure 🥰
I totally agree!
‘She’s keeping him… keeping him, a-round…’ never really knew what he was saying there! My favourite Michael Jackson song, pure gold… thank you #AmplifyMJ ❤️
One of my favorite parts.
She’s keeping him by keeping him around..
I always heard it as: 'She's giving in/up by keeping him around', it goes with the essence of the song better.
Like with the Smokey Robinson track..Tears of a clown..when he mentions the clown Pagliacci..i didn't knw what he was saying for 50 years!😳🎤
My favorite part. Most people miss it or ad-lib some made up lyrics. I'm happy other people picked up on that part too.
17:27 I need Michael Jackson's laughter as my alarm clock
there's your million dollar idea .. i'd buy 1 for sure!!!😂😂
@@flipz4398 🤣🤣🤣
Michael is such a PERFECTIONISTS. NO EFFECTS ON HIS VOICE. HE IS JUST SO NATURAL🤣
His voice is very unique, and I feel that philosophically he leaned into a more naturalist approach to his musicmaking process. His voice didn't need effects, and he probably didn't want them, either.
are you kidding me.. you have more of these.... aahhahahhh treasure,unbelievable
YESSSS :) !!
It’d be great to hear “butterflies” by MJ. Amazing and really impressive vocals in that one!
Hell yeah! Especially to hear the background vocals! Each one
How great is this!!! Two fantastic music professors dissecting a music genius’s performance. Thanks guys!!!!
Our pleasure!
Keep it up with the MJ stuff. Really good at his craft. Thanks for the vid!
The way the captions say “swiss inducing size” when he sings “sweet seducing sighs” 😂
MJ MAKES HE'S OWN BACKGROUND THESE HOW GENIUS HE WAS.
MORE MJ ‼️‼️ long live the greatest of all time! Much love from Germany! 🤍
I love when Michael breath’s into the mic. It actually makes me realize that he really existed. I sometimes can’t believe that he existed and his death is still so unreal to me. The fact that I’ll never get the chance to see this man.. wow. He was somebody you would never expect to be gone. Pure magic.
You defo need to check out Liberian girl as well as will you be there!
Liberian girl is next :) ... I've got that one too!!
Amen!🥹🙏🏽🙌🏽👑💝💫
@@chrisliepe AHHH, Can’t wait!! 😍
@@chrisliepe do butterflies plz
@@chrisliepe AWESOME!!!❣❣🎄
Can you get a hold of heaven can wait by MJ? That would be super interesting 😁
such a gem of a song and album
oooooo yes!
Tell the angels no!!
I couldn’t agree more
Yes oh wow...that would be amazing..Great video .this is my all time favorite MJ song..there is no other song that gives me Goosebumps
This video just got reinstated after being taken down... For some reason, all the comments got removed in the process. Enjoy and leave some comments to get the discussion going again on this amazing song!
Michael jackson voice brings life to the instrument's but yet he dont need them
Be sure to check out the full video description for a special, free opportunity to go even deeper with MJ's amazing music!
Chris love your work! Great niche that I really am happy I stumbled upon. I’m a music producer but often want to make vocal parts for my compositions in the voice of a type of singer. I want to be able to compile a list of singers vocal attributes and mix and match them, like The gravelly texture to a gospel singer but the sound and pronunciations of Yuki Nagano. I want to know how to study voices, what makes them how they are, create profiles on them, and then use them as basis to be inspired & even create fusion. for certain songs. Is this something you teach? Your Thom Yorke video was so impressive but I wouldn’t know how to think of the witch for a good reference. That knowledge you have was excellent man I’d love to learn how to do that!
When someone asks me what's my favorite MJ song is always so hard to choose but I always say this is in top 3 because of his voice and how sweet sounds. 15:28 that sounds so beautiful
I know. I tried to pick my absolute favourite MJ song (s) but ended up with 13 ballads and 7 uptempo songs. LOL
What are your other faves?
We need actual studio videos of this recording
not just 2 knobs talking about it,anyone can do that
I'm a Wings of Pegasus girl and you did a great Collab with our Fil. Michael Jackson was one of a kind. Music ran through his viens which is why he could do things on the fly.
I’m always here for MJ! 🥰
I am obsessed with these videos. I know nothing about the technical aspects of music but since I was a kid, I have always listened to MJ with headphones/earphones because I love the nuances to his voice, the music, everything. I love the details and these types of videos open it all up so we can see how he wrote music using his unique vocal abilities, how he arranged music, and then how it all comes together. This is like Christmas for me! Thank you so much for doing these videos!
I don't know anything about music theory, but for some reason, you can hear Michael Jackson's unique vocal abilities, how his voice shifts, how he breathed out the words as he sang, his high and bright voice
self-harmony,' 'self-backing vocals,' 'self-dubbing,' or 'self-overdubbing.' It is the process of adding multiple layers of one's own voice
I love and adore “Human Nature” with and without MJ’s vocals because the song is just that beautiful. MJ’s vocals are the cherry on top!
Michael Jackson Is Thee Greatest Singer Of All Time! Btw I’d rather you do these sessions alone simply cause this is our first time hearing these Multitrack’s and others may not be as well versed into MJ’s amazing/unmatched incomparable vocal ability & discography as you are😇🙌🏽👑💖🔥💫(I love “Human Nature” cause the song is so spacey and In retrospect, it can be viewed as a sad song, however: The anticipation that MJ sings about with such relish - of breaking out, hitting the streets, connecting with strangers - was a pleasure that was denied from him during his childhood/lifetime,in large degree because of the unprecedented fame and fanfare generated by the success of Thriller.)
Thanks for the encouragement and input!
You are so right! Mj never really had a childhood either. :( What a great talent.
Fil is quite well versed in both Michael Jackson, and the craft of music-making overall. He was a good choice for this video, and after all this song was Fil's choice to analyze to begin with.
@@wamnetwork i definitely agree
@@wamnetwork EXACTLY!! 2 heads are better than 1😁😁
He’s quite untraditional in his singing which is surprising…I love that!
I saw in a documentary that around the time MJ recorded Off the Wall he was really into African percussion.
So.... trying to use his voice in a sort of percussive way.... makes total sense to me.
One of my favourite MJ songs. So great to hear the multi tracks!
The genius of Michael Jackson. Great video!
My favorite song ever! Drive at night with this song on and it's so soothing
My favorite Michael Jackson song of all time
Whenever I listen to Human Nature theres something about the way he says da da da da zaa zaa that is so relaxing to the brain and body
Oh my God, I have been subscribed to wings of Pegasus, as well as yourself for years. The two of you together is very exciting to me!
OMG thank you for this.... I'm 43, I've been an MJ fan for 35 years...and I'm trying to be a singer... watching and listening to all this helps me to appeciate more the vocal quality Mike had, and also appreciate him a the talented HUMAN Being he was. Hugs from Buenos Aires!!💞
This is so cool.I'm pumped up.YES!All should be listening to more Wings of Pegasus.The Live streams are so much fun it's a rocking community.❤
Something I really love about Michael's use of his vocals is simply that he really tends to use them as an instrument and not just sing lines. Like what you guys mentioned with almost adding to the percussion and such. He doesn't stick to the lines of singing. He rather tends to explore what vocals can do and then use that to his advantage in the song. His vocals aren't just vocals in a song. His vocals itsself are simply an actual instrument to the song. The way he approaches making music this way is something I've rarely ever seen. Freddie Mercury seems to do it similarly, but in his own way of course. You can learn so much from listening to these types of tracks or seeing their process of making songs. I love it
This is the coolest shit EVERRRR!!!!!!
15:20 Your mouth is literally on the desk (ref. The Mask) during this part just trying to process what's happening. You think you know Michael Jackson's songs to the point where you are jaded but then they are broken down and your mind melts like. WOW.
Thanks to Bruce Swedien (rip) “Acusonic Sound” recording process,, made it possible to record everything stereo and able to have more tracks to play with on 2 2 inch 24 track tape recorder synced together , thus giving more extra tracks to work with.
The Magic of Michael! Wow! Don't forget the Genius of Quincy Jones' arrangement. Perfection! ❤
Thank you for doing my favorite song ever😭😭❤️❤️ This song is like the best song to exist. Every time I listen to any version of it I get feelings I’ve never felt before. It’s just unbelievably beautiful and feels so natural. I really don’t know how to describe it.
I totally understand this. Some music I have to be in a "mood" to listen, but it doesn't matter how I'm feeling when I play Human Nature. It puts me in a trance and makes me feel otherworldly.
Steve Lukather guitar is out of this world
This was awesome!!! So great to hear the different vocal takes and comps. I was just actively listening to Human Nature just days ago, in which this video on his vocal takes and comps enhanced that even more. Thank you for sharing these amazing videos that inspire singers.
You're so welcome!
I genuinely thank you for these reactions, your considerations and observations. It's great to listen to Michael as if we were in the studio with him and to listen to your teachings. Really great job!😍😍
Those aren't actually the real drums and bass tracks. It's from a rework I made a few years back because someone requested it (there was no session available with drums and bass separated at the time). I posted it on Reddit for people to play with, few days later it was all over the internet, without the information that it is not real. I actually recognize my own file naming system in the tracks haha :). A few months later a session with the real original drums and bass leaked out. You can probably find that one as well.
Ah well, the vocal takes are the real gems here, and those are real for sure! Haha. Enjoyed the video, and funny to see my own tracks back in your daw!
Oooh, where can I find a reputable source for the leaked version?
Also - that’s so cool that your tracks made it around 😊
I'd just like to say that I have enjoyed your channel so much, and even more so now that you're making these wonderful commentaries on Michael Jackson's music. He was my favorite artist of all time. This track ("Earth Song") is one of my favorite recordings from MJ. There's a book that was written about this particular song and I bought it and read it. Truly magnificent music! This is Michael's grand opus to our planet.🎤🎵 🌎. Thank you, Michael, for writing such breathtaking lyrics and music. And thanks go to Chris Liepe for posting this.
This song has always been one of my favourite songs of Michael Jackson.
These videos are so interesting I love seeing you break down all the specifics and tell your take on them, love what you do!🫀
Thanks for introducing me to the Wings of Pegasus channel Chris. What a great breadth of artist analyses on there!
Human Nature 😍
I love the way you explore so many genres & different kinds of voices! It's been a huge help to my singing journey & I'm so glad I found this channel! 😃💜
I'm glad you found the channel too!
MJ was a modern day Beethoven🌟🌟🌟🌟✨✨✨✨✨✨
You mean mozart.
I'm not sure that average viewer understands that this is priceless material. Thank you so much Chris. Special request for Give In To Me =D
Chris thank you for sharing this.
Holy shit the multitrak to human nature!👍🏾💪🏾👊🏽 Looks like he stacked the hell out of it all the way through can't wait to dive in. I'm new but you are a God!
Absolutely incredible!! I’d love to hear more with these extra takes 😭🩷🩷
Ohhh yesss, I can't get enough of these.
Heyyy I've heard the vocals in that alternate takes 2 and 4 in extended mixes
Michael forever ❤️
The greatest artist ever!
man you make me appreciate this guy more
That was absolutely amazing!!!
Just wanted to say thanks, you have re-inspired my love of music with your video on MJs Earth Song. I ended up cranking MJ all night on my headphones, it took me back to my childhood and I remembered the feelings of love, joy and hope I got when listening to MJ. I found a cover version of Earth Song on youtube that features Peter Andre!! It doesn't have many views but its a fantastic collab and does the song justice - incase you haven't heard it! Look forward to hearing this one :D
it's amazing to listen MJ voice.
Wow! All the bits I'd never known. Think I understand them now. Thank you.
Chris, this is Pure Gold, Dude! Simply The Best Track of the Album!!! And making the Multi-Track Session available for Us All and for Free!!! Man, You're going Straight to Heaven!!! Don't even know how to Thank You for that! I did a rendition for this Song years ago but now with those stems I gotta do a new one!!! Wow! Feels like Christmas' morning with You playing Santa by giving Us such a present! Thank You, from the Bottom of my Heart!
What a video wow I love it ❤️
So glad!
Chris is a legend! Love his content!
I think his best vocals on "Leave Me alone" and "2BAD" . Waiting for "Leave Me Alone"
My favorite song from MJ!
I love these videos, huge fan!🙏🏼❤️
I watch a bunch of you both.... But together.... amazing....
Great video great audio sounds great music.
Great lnterview great show. 👍
Soo tough to narrow down a favorite MJ song. But this one has been mine since I was little. Tons of creativity in this one
Thanks for this video and collaboration with Fil, Chris. Michael was indeed a perfectionist, I believe he could have gone in the booth and sung this song incredibly first take with a result most would be satisfied with but he always strived to deliver the best result with each of his songs, and that is one of many reasons why I think he is the greatest and most special talent in music, let alone dance of all time 👑
He did six takes and they chose the second one.
Check out: reborn audio. That’s a youtube channel with a lot of mj stuff
Michael Jackson is a gift from god in our century. One of the great people and artists of history compared to betoven, Shakespeare, michaelangelo, ect ect. In 1,000 years people will still be celebrating and studying his artistry, his short films, his music, and live performances. One day humans on other planets will listen to his music if we make it to mass and other stars.
I really enjoyed this. Thanks
Came here from the link on Wings of Pegasus. Hearing input from both of you was very interesting!
amazing
i like this song even more now..thank you
Michael Jackson stay The King…
Think you so much for this video 😊
6:15
Damn!
It’s a good thing I listened to the Human Nature Demo that has the part where Michael said “I like the way she stare” because I can’t find that one now. I just started to listen to that a month ago.
It’s a good thing I found half of what I’m looking for because Sony removed all traces of that version.
This is beautiful
More MJ stuff plz! Much love ❤️
So amazing! Thanks for sharing these gems! My request if possible is Liberian girl.
Yaaaaasssss!!! Love me some 🎶MJ🎶 Human Nature.
Génial ! Bonjour de France :)
you are the best exactly my music taste.
Can you also analyse Leave me alone and Liberian Girl? Both underraed songs and what warm up exercises you should do.
Thanks
Yes!!! Especially Liberian Girl and Michaels voice layering in the chorus!
I love the mj stuff!
My All Time Favorite song
Enlightening
Wings of Pegasus brought me here. Great collaboration!
Thanks for watching and being here! :)
great content 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
This is so sick!
INCREDIBLE MICHAEL JACKSON 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏THE BEST ARTIST OL THE TIME ...
best series on youtube
The availability of these original, digital studio multi-tracks from Michael Jackson's extensive oeuvre has inspired countless aspiring audio mavens to take a stab at remixing the songs and posting them to UA-cam. Having provided us a glimpse of the process, I thought you, Fil at Wings of Pegasus & the viewers of this segment might like to hear this exceptional remix of "Human Nature" created by Quality Mixes, a very talented young man from Atlanta, GA. It's hard to improve on perfection, but IMHO Quality Mixes has done it with his lovingly crafted version of "Human Nature." ua-cam.com/video/rxDRyGZnMOY/v-deo.html
Nice treat having you two together while I get lost in MJ land.
Love Fil...
