Right? He got there earlier and got his part done. But when He was putting his voice, and they would stop him to re-do it and I was like, re-do what? MJ is flawless but I guess people who worked with him, knew he was perfectionist.

Michelle Preis the chick sure is full of life . here's a little secret, in the eighties when I was a teen I had a crush on her big time even though my friends made fun of me over it.
Watching this made me love love love Steve Perry! He was so spot on, so supportive, and just a talented artist amongst the most talented of artists! He really stood out to me!❤
He wasn't looking at the sheet like the rest, and every time he gave a different take. Made it look effortless. A real pro, great musician and indeed a stand out.
If you watch the whole thing, you will see that Steve basically didn't have to rehearse at all. He had the best and most perfect vocal range of any performer there.
Well, he did co-write the song with Lionel Richie and worked on the demo with Quincy Jones about a week before the night they asked the rest of the singers to record after the American Music Awards that year. Everyone else had to learn their parts in a matter of hours because they needed to record everything before the next morning since everyone was flying out to resume their own work schedules.
@@DannieDoll If you didn't notice, they were trying different renditions of the same section. Different harmonies between three singers. And some semi-improvised parts to add the singers' personal touches. It's like when you make a movie or television show, you take several "takes". In the end, you choose the one that fits best. Michael's section did not contain a harmony with any other singers. It was a single straightforward melody. There was nothing to experiment with. If you didn't notice, everyone was singing in key the entire time. There were no "wrong" notes. But there was room to experiment on who got what note in the harmony. Part of it is that you "don't know those singers". Cyndi Lauper certainly was not straining to hit any of those notes, though she did add some rasp to her voice for effect. It was effortless for her, too. And she was light and funny. No sweat.
No. Huey Lewis, Lauper and that other woman are not perfectionists. Their first takes sounded so awful that they had to sing again and again. A perfectionist tries to make excellent even better. Those people just made bad good.
They're not perfectionists at all. Huey Lewis was so out of tune it was ridiculous. These people are supposed to be singers and yet it took that many takes for him to to actually sing one simple line relatively in tune.
@@david18ireland Huey Lewis is a great singer, but remember, their headphones is what they are hearing and this is an old tape and over YT the pitch may be altered.
Yeah. I've seen this before in my career. Her performances are about emotion, connection and raw talent. So she's thrown into this project with performers who are about precision and tight harmonies (and the bridge people). Even in her own songs, especially live, she doesn't sing on beat with with the other vocals. But that's her free spirit style and that's why we love her. Thanks for letting me get that off my chest.

This scene is pure gold, Michael and Lionel looking for perfection while Darryl Hall, Kenny Logins and Steve Perry try to help Huey Lewis, Kim Carnes and of course Cyndy Lauper, Only big names in music without auto tune. Love it.
Only those who lived at that time understand the magic of these voices together. I was a child completely enchanted by the talent of each of them, especially Steve Perry. All are irreplaceable.
@@Albusdumbledoree I made this comment because a lot of people are criticizing some of these singers. At the time there was no AI, everyone was very talented, despite the difficulties presented during rehearsals.
Agree. A person like Cyndi has to be Cyndi. Holding back will just make her awkward. She nailed it in the end and I like her part a lot. Full of character
I later read that Quincy was annoyed at her because of the bracelots and stuff, but I thought she nailed it on her first take. I was never a big fan of the guy before her who not only dropped out of key but also came in too close to the mic so that when Cindi had her turn, she had to wait for him to get out of her way. I thought it was Huey who did more to f*ff up the recording than CL.
As much as do know his work ethic was incredible. He did co-write the song and worked on the demo for a week before it was actually recorded when the rest of the singers took time from their already busy schedules and instead of heading home or to a after-parties showed up to learn their parts, rehearse and record in a matter of hours after the American Music Awards that year. As I recall, the song's chorus with the entire group was recorded first. Then majority of the group left when the selected solo parts where selected to record the individual lines. Everything except Bob Dylan and the later part by Ray Charles was recorded before daylight the next day after the American Music Awards. The extra parts were recorded a week after.
@@Sirynx77 oh yeah Ive seen the documentary. And trust me I'm not taking anything away from they're wonderful performances, but as a singer it is very hard to literally sound identical every time like a record player. And Michael was very busy at the time too so it just shows his own work ethic added to everyone else's. Admirable.
Es sorprendente que todas las intervenciones de Cyndi Lauper siempre fueron afinadas y en el compas pero ninguna fue igual a la otra. Eso quiere decir que tiene una gran creatividad e improvisación. Una genio.
Yeah! I adore her! I've loved her since she was in her band "Blue Angel" back in 1980. I have their one and only album. And not trying to be rude, but her name is spelled "Cyndi". 😊💖👍
Who is there in 2020? MJ was a legend per everything. Cindy's necklace affected her recording. Lol. I wish all these artistes were still this young and beautiful
Well he still knocks it out of the park. I don't know why you are so insecure that you bash anyone who suggests Cyndi Lauper isn't the best vocalist of all time. I get being a fan, but anyone with ears knows she was an average singer.
All these years I thought they sang at the same time in the same room and it was just perfect in the first take hahahaha wow! It's cool to see their effort and dedication.
The producers made the music video with all of them “singing” together. The final audio cut was then overlayed to create the video we all know and love. I’m still amazed how they all managed to come together all at the same time.
amazing how they all came up with perfect interpretations almost on the go. Cindy's part is pretty much the climax of the song, a very important and difficult moment.
I love how professional MJ is. He nails every bit he has to, then in between the takes he just steps back and patiently waits. Ultimate professional and humble and trusts in the others around him to do their part. Geez I miss artists like him (and a hell of a lot of others in this clip that don’t get the same airplay now as they did back then).
@@applehead7942 Lmfao you should watch another behind the scenes video. They had to record their parts a bunch of times because they kept messing up even after MJ helped them. At one point lmfao he literally just stops and stares at them
That's what happens when you spend your entire childhood getting beaten and worked to death. That's why Michael was always so quiet and timid, because he was always afraid. Michael's father was a monster.
I'm so glad the cameras were rolling for this. It's such a wonderful look at all that amazing talent and so much appreciation for each other's different styles. It was an amazing time in music history.
Shout out to Lionel Richie for making Cyndi more comfortable with herself. And for suggesting that they sing that last part in harmony. Excellent idea Lionel! Oh and I'm glad the Netflix doc came out. It shows that no one received demos like some idiot lied and said they did. Michael looks disappointed, but thats because he didn't go to the AMAs that were going on. He was practicing by himself all day. Everyone else was at thr awards show. So NO ONE had any preparation before getting there that night. Which makes this show just how talented these people actually were. They had ONE NIGHT to get this done without any prep whatsoever. I said this in my last comment. That you Netflix for proving me right. And after 39 years this coming out, my memory is still better than most people.
What Cyndi did was outstanding, the way she worked out and improved her solo from take to take, the distinctive phrasing and expression she added, etc. That final take couldn't have been bettered (the little bit she improvised at the very end was just perfection!)
Yea her voice made the song to be honest 👍🏿very professional and cute the way she was telling the other Legend how to exercise her vocals! Then came out with a banger
It seems as though they absolutely needed it too for the bridge. It’s difficult to imagine the chorus coming in without Cyndi’s high note. The entire beginning of the song is basically “one note” until Cyndi. She did a good job by taking it higher.
Prince would have been in another corner and they weren't be able to get one pitch perfect recording from Madonna, so the whole session lasted for another day. Btw I'm sure they both would have been humbled by the situation - maybe that's why they didn't join. They were scared of their own humble self.
@Funk O'Matic Supposedly Prince was gonna have the line that Huey ended up singing. So they would've had Michael, then Prince, then Cyndi, and IMO put Madonna in Kim Carnes' place, and then you would've had the two biggest male pop stars in 1985 sing back to back, then the two biggest female pop stars sing back to back, and then possibly the part with "stand together as one," they could've somehow had MJ, Prince, Cyndi, and Madonna all harmonize together on that part. I mean Madonna at that time wasn't near the vocalist that MJ, Prince, and Cyndi were, but as great of talents as they were they probably could've figured something out to make it sound great. That being said, the harmonizing of Huey, Kim, and Cyndi is one of my favorite parts of the song. So it worked out either way.
I think Prince & Madonna would’ve worked but elsewhere in the song. Kim’s rasp was too vital to the chorus. Maybe Al Jarreau and James Ingram replaced, or Daryl Hall.
@@Juno_Beach Most entertainers do. 😂 They know their talent then try to pretend they don't. 🙄 It's usually the ones with no talent bragging on themselves. I still liked it though.
Tem um documentário na Netflix e ela não queria participar pq a música ñ ia ser sucesso. Foi feito um sorteio entre a Madonna é ela, e o Quincy escolheu ela.
MJ is a one take wonder. Dude was pitch perfect in a way that was never seen before or after. Just unbelievable. You can see him waiting around for people to get it together because he knew he could deliver the perfect note every time.
He also didn’t sing in the harmony part they were working out for the bridge. This video documents them rehearsing while they recorded the vocal harmonies. The fact they were able to work that out so quickly just proves how much talent they have. A little direction from Lionel Richie and they nailed it
0:34 I love how everybody claps but then Michael corrects them and improves the "Together as one" Michael really has an amazing ear because his correction makes the song so much better
This turned out to be the epic part of the song it’s not surprise it took time for them to get it to a point where they said yes it’s a take. These are masters at work
Yeah it's too bad so many people watching this don't get it at all, and prefer to think that they're "embarrassing themselves" in front of a "pissed off" Michael Jackson.
These artists were so humble and respectful of one another. It's beautiful to see individuals take advice from their peers without being offended. We could never have this nowadays, with every artist claiming to be some genius of ..., goddess of ..., princess of ..., king of ... queen of ...etc, too much ego with little talent!
Exactly, this is amazing collaboration of amazing artists caring and listening to each other. The same way it would be not possible nowdays to make "One voice one world" which is much more complicated recording
This video is pure authenticity. A rare look into the candid-ness of a group of legends. Theres no way footage like this could ever exist of the artists of today as the music industry is too highly guarded in public image & promotion and many performances are tweaked to perfection without allowing us to see the work going into it. Even live concerts are staged.
At around the 4:00 mark, you can see Lionel Richie speaking to Steve Perry and Daryl Hall. Steve is shown saying OK at 4:16. I feel that Lionel had asked one of them to help with the harmony because between 5:30 and 5:57 you'll see Steve standing to the right of them, coaching and singing along. Lionel then nods to Steve as if to say he approves of the outcome. Huey, Cindy and Kim seem to be waiting for a comment from Steve. Then Steve says, "I'm too burnt out to tell anybody anything".
Their was an interview with Kenny Loggins a year or so ago (Kenny had done the duet together with Steve "Don't Fight It" before We Are the World, so they knew each other pretty well by this night) and Kenny talked about how Steve Perry had stepped in to coach Cyndi Lauper to get that line just right. Also, Steve Perry was/is very well versed in creating harmonies as they did in Journey. Steve was trying not to over-step too hard in his suggestions, which is why he said "I'm too burned out to tell anybody what to do", because he was feeling a little uncomfortable about doing that, but did want to help. Kenny described it as pretty interesting and amazing.
If ever anyone needed a demonstration of just how good a singer Cyndi Lauper is, this is it. She is wide-awake, aware and absorbing new information with every take until she found what she was looking for and the result is absolute perfection.
I watched her interview somewhere that they told the 'bridge people' to just sing with all they got. The problem is, by nature Cindy's songs are much more powerful than Kim's. Her voice would totally eat Kim's (not saying Kim's bad, but her songs are just very different). She admitted that she tried to be polite and grasping how much she could 'gave her all'. Her conclussion was that strong 'Yea yea yeah' part, and not singing together with Kim.
There’s a recording of Michael singing at different notes or tones or keys or whatever for the producer to lay on top of each other..it’s absolutely breathtaking and beautiful. He was truly a musical genius. This song was a love child of a lot of people but came together beautifully.
It's the demo MJ sang solo and is released on MJs compilation Disk set "the ultimate collection", maybe on others but that's where I first heard it, just search on UA-cam ❤ it's very preeeety!🫶🏻
Que gratificante es ver a estos maestros del canto todos reunidos con su magnífica fuerza interpretativa. Muy bien, excelentes todos. Un saludo a la distancia a todos e incluidos a los que ya se han ido.
And he could've too if he wanted. He had amazing range. I'm scratching my head here, listening to these other three struggle to sing one/two lines on key.
@@paradoxmeld2937 For a nobody I sure do have you bothered. Lol! And the truth still stands: Those other folks in the clip couldn't sing a simple line or two on key. Not only that, some of them couldn't even sing on beat! How are they professional singers and can't even sing a few simple lines on key and on beat? Lmao! That's just bad singing. Period. And don't try to use MJ as a scapegoat. It doesn't matter if a singer's singing next to Michael Jackson or Roseanne Barr. If you're a so-called professional singer, you should be able to sing simple notes on beat with relative ease. Especially if you're singing in a group because the other voices naturally mask a bad note here and there. That's why people who are picked to sing solos (like Michael Jackson in this clip) tend to be the best singers in the group. It's because when singing solos there's no other voices to hide behind. If a soloist sings a bad note (like Cyndi Lauper in this clip), it's more noticable. And I don't even hate Cyndi or the others. I've heard them sing before and they sound alright in their specific genre at times. But this clip just proves that there's a huge difference between "performers" and real, talented singers. This clip shows why MJ is the King of Pop.

Yes , is perfect , of course.
Exacto .❤michael
This scene is pure gold, Michael and Lionel looking for perfection while Darryl Hall, Kenny Logins and Steve Perry try to help Huey Lewis, Kim Carnes and of course Cyndy Lauper, Only big names in music without auto tune. Love it.
Huey misogyny?

thank you. I didn't know their names (except michael jackson, lionel, steve perry and cyndi lauper). now i will go search their songs.
Cyndi and huey couldve used auto tune. How were they professional singers smh lol
@@mikefekade12 Cyndi sounds fine, Huey was way off key.
@@exiles_dot_tv cyndi doesnt sound good lol. Man this is what u would consider good? Shame they put these karaoke singers with mike
Only those who lived at that time understand the magic of these voices together. I was a child completely enchanted by the talent of each of them, especially Steve Perry. All are irreplaceable.
May i ask why you think that "only those who lived at that time understand the magic of these voices together"
Im genuinely curious
@@Albusdumbledoree I made this comment because a lot of people are criticizing some of these singers. At the time there was no AI, everyone was very talented, despite the difficulties presented during rehearsals.
Absolutely, back then there was something called talent. No autotune...

She sung what they asked correct each time. Her version was best, though.
It seems perfect in timing, emotion and tone. Fucking nailed it.
Cindy has this really squeeky voice when she talks like straight out of a walt disney movie. But when she sings she just wanna have fun.
Idk if it’s just me or does she kinda sound like Harley Quinn
For me she sounds brilliant when singing but annoying when talking lol
She is just a princess, or an angel.
Heh. I see what ya did there
She is just hilarious!
I love how Cyndi’s jewelry was causing a problem and no was mad they all laughed. She was so cute about it.
I've recorded artists and then said 'do you mind removing your bracelet?' - every song is picked up.
Yes indeed. Her four octave range is rare and amazing!
5:13 "Am I still clinking?... okay" Hahaha, she was sooo cute!
I later read that Quincy was annoyed at her because of the bracelots and stuff, but I thought she nailed it on her first take. I was never a big fan of the guy before her who not only dropped out of key but also came in too close to the mic so that when Cindi had her turn, she had to wait for him to get out of her way. I thought it was Huey who did more to f*ff up the recording than CL.
Of course Mr. Quincy "Leave Your Ego At The Door" Jones had the biggest ego in the entire room.
I love Cyndi Lauper. What for a great singer!!!❤❤❤

The best part al least for me Billy
MJ’s consistency is unbelievable.
Swear thought I was the only one who noticed that omg he's amazing. He just does it right continuously how come such perfection
I mean he said in this is it, he has a perfect idea of how things should go. What an icon!
Gotta respect MJ's clockwork precision - every time he nailed it. Real professional.
As much as do know his work ethic was incredible. He did co-write the song and worked on the demo for a week before it was actually recorded when the rest of the singers took time from their already busy schedules and instead of heading home or to a after-parties showed up to learn their parts, rehearse and record in a matter of hours after the American Music Awards that year.
As I recall, the song's chorus with the entire group was recorded first. Then majority of the group left when the selected solo parts where selected to record the individual lines. Everything except Bob Dylan and the later part by Ray Charles was recorded before daylight the next day after the American Music Awards. The extra parts were recorded a week after.
@@Sirynx77 oh yeah Ive seen the documentary. And trust me I'm not taking anything away from they're wonderful performances, but as a singer it is very hard to literally sound identical every time like a record player. And Michael was very busy at the time too so it just shows his own work ethic added to everyone else's. Admirable.
Es sorprendente que todas las intervenciones de Cyndi Lauper siempre fueron afinadas y en el compas pero ninguna fue igual a la otra. Eso quiere decir que tiene una gran creatividad e improvisación. Una genio.
7:13 i love the way Lionel came and told them how to harmonize their voices. Sublime

Well he still knocks it out of the park. I don't know why you are so insecure that you bash anyone who suggests Cyndi Lauper isn't the best vocalist of all time. I get being a fan, but anyone with ears knows she was an average singer.
Who? I've never heard anyone except you call her and outstanding elite singer. She's average at best and her voice sounds like a cartoon character.

ASI FUE TODOS EN LA MISMA HABITACION PERO POR PARTES
it took em less than 10 min to do their part, impressive still for pros
😂That's the power of video editing!
HAHA Yeah I assumed it was all live on one take too.
The producers made the music video with all of them “singing” together. The final audio cut was then overlayed to create the video we all know and love. I’m still amazed how they all managed to come together all at the same time.

amazing how they all came up with perfect interpretations almost on the go. Cindy's part is pretty much the climax of the song, a very important and difficult moment.
I love how professional MJ is. He nails every bit he has to, then in between the takes he just steps back and patiently waits. Ultimate professional and humble and trusts in the others around him to do their part. Geez I miss artists like him (and a hell of a lot of others in this clip that don’t get the same airplay now as they did back then).
yeah and i always wonder goes in his head every time they sang their parts 😂
@@applehead7942 Lmfao you should watch another behind the scenes video. They had to record their parts a bunch of times because they kept messing up even after MJ helped them.
At one point lmfao he literally just stops and stares at them
That's what happens when you spend your entire childhood getting beaten and worked to death. That's why Michael was always so quiet and timid, because he was always afraid. Michael's father was a monster.
@@fluffylittlebearyou sure being gifted and talented has nothing to do with it?
Exactly. He understands the diversity these artists contribute and respects each talent.
I'm so glad the cameras were rolling for this. It's such a wonderful look at all that amazing talent and so much appreciation for each other's different styles. It was an amazing time in music history.
Michael is flawless every time
Shout out to Lionel Richie for making Cyndi more comfortable with herself. And for suggesting that they sing that last part in harmony. Excellent idea Lionel!
Oh and I'm glad the Netflix doc came out. It shows that no one received demos like some idiot lied and said they did. Michael looks disappointed, but thats because he didn't go to the AMAs that were going on. He was practicing by himself all day. Everyone else was at thr awards show. So NO ONE had any preparation before getting there that night.
Which makes this show just how talented these people actually were. They had ONE NIGHT to get this done without any prep whatsoever.
I said this in my last comment. That you Netflix for proving me right. And after 39 years this coming out, my memory is still better than most people.
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!!
And nobody who commented before the Netflix series admits that they were wrong😂
What Cyndi did was outstanding, the way she worked out and improved her solo from take to take, the distinctive phrasing and expression she added, etc. That final take couldn't have been bettered (the little bit she improvised at the very end was just perfection!)
Totally agree!!
Yeah its beautiful that part, and the hole song
Too bad Quincy dissed her -_-
Yea her voice made the song to be honest 👍🏿very professional and cute the way she was telling the other Legend how to exercise her vocals! Then came out with a banger
@@helenl4619 what did he say about my Cindy?
cyndi part "well, well, well ..... yeah, yeah, yeah" of the song IS what made the song.......love her since ! amazing talent!!!
That was the worst part what do you mean 😭😂
It seems as though they absolutely needed it too for the bridge. It’s difficult to imagine the chorus coming in without Cyndi’s high note. The entire beginning of the song is basically “one note” until Cyndi.
She did a good job by taking it higher.
Love the sarcasm😄.
supremes ballard TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU! It’s the section I always await with excitement, and it keeps my heart full till the end of the song
@@nelar860 get out of the planet please
MJ so professional in the corner observing the chaos lol,..Cyndi is just a fun so alive person, so glad she was part of this.
Prince would have been in another corner and they weren't be able to get one pitch perfect recording from Madonna, so the whole session lasted for another day. Btw I'm sure they both would have been humbled by the situation - maybe that's why they didn't join. They were scared of their own humble self.
@Funk O'Matic Supposedly Prince was gonna have the line that Huey ended up singing. So they would've had Michael, then Prince, then Cyndi, and IMO put Madonna in Kim Carnes' place, and then you would've had the two biggest male pop stars in 1985 sing back to back, then the two biggest female pop stars sing back to back, and then possibly the part with "stand together as one," they could've somehow had MJ, Prince, Cyndi, and Madonna all harmonize together on that part. I mean Madonna at that time wasn't near the vocalist that MJ, Prince, and Cyndi were, but as great of talents as they were they probably could've figured something out to make it sound great.
That being said, the harmonizing of Huey, Kim, and Cyndi is one of my favorite parts of the song. So it worked out either way.
Imagine if Whitney Houston had debuted a year earlier and been a big enough star by this time to appear on the song. Holy cow.
Wrong wrong wrong ua-cam.com/video/05GRm_6Goyo/v-deo.html
I think Prince & Madonna would’ve worked but elsewhere in the song. Kim’s rasp was too vital to the chorus. Maybe Al Jarreau and James Ingram replaced, or Daryl Hall.
So much talent in one room and everyone is supporting each other.
99% MJ and 1% everyone else

MJ is a one take wonder. Dude was pitch perfect in a way that was never seen before or after. Just unbelievable. You can see him waiting around for people to get it together because he knew he could deliver the perfect note every time.
I think Whitney Houston is the one take Wonder
He also didn’t sing in the harmony part they were working out for the bridge. This video documents them rehearsing while they recorded the vocal harmonies. The fact they were able to work that out so quickly just proves how much talent they have. A little direction from Lionel Richie and they nailed it
His part wasn't as hard as the harmonies they had to do
This song is written by him, and the song is made to match to his voice...
@@JustinR941 I'm pretty sure MJ can sing in harmony; I have never heard him doubt himself before/during/after singing a note.
0:34 I love how everybody claps but then Michael corrects them and improves the "Together as one" Michael really has an amazing ear because his correction makes the song so much better
And he was the only one who did it perfectly at the first try
This turned out to be the epic part of the song it’s not surprise it took time for them to get it to a point where they said yes it’s a take. These are masters at work
Yeah it's too bad so many people watching this don't get it at all, and prefer to think that they're "embarrassing themselves" in front of a "pissed off" Michael Jackson.
These artists were so humble and respectful of one another. It's beautiful to see individuals take advice from their peers without being offended. We could never have this nowadays, with every artist claiming to be some genius of ..., goddess of ..., princess of ..., king of ... queen of ...etc, too much ego with little talent!
Exactly, this is amazing collaboration of amazing artists caring and listening to each other. The same way it would be not possible nowdays to make "One voice one world" which is much more complicated recording
Lol you think they act like that without the media? They are drug addicts who have big egos. Stop comparing because popstars were always assholes.
Those singers came from giging from nothing to becoming icons. They had to get their asses on stage every time. No SoundCloud then.
Probably because they knew they were being filmed. 🙄
It’s awesome to see Steve Perry just chilling there and complimenting them
I love it how Michael is quietly standing in the back watching kids do their work.

This video is pure authenticity. A rare look into the candid-ness of a group of legends. Theres no way footage like this could ever exist of the artists of today as the music industry is too highly guarded in public image & promotion and many performances are tweaked to perfection without allowing us to see the work going into it.

Nice catch. He is an amazing singer and human
I tried to understand what he said, but I lost some parts... What did he day?
At around the 4:00 mark, you can see Lionel Richie speaking to Steve Perry and Daryl Hall. Steve is shown saying OK at 4:16. I feel that Lionel had asked one of them to help with the harmony because between 5:30 and 5:57 you'll see Steve standing to the right of them, coaching and singing along. Lionel then nods to Steve as if to say he approves of the outcome. Huey, Cindy and Kim seem to be waiting for a comment from Steve. Then Steve says, "I'm too burnt out to tell anybody anything".
@@ChaChapman-b1i thank you! I had missed most of this. English is not my native language
Their was an interview with Kenny Loggins a year or so ago (Kenny had done the duet together with Steve "Don't Fight It" before We Are the World, so they knew each other pretty well by this night) and Kenny talked about how Steve Perry had stepped in to coach Cyndi Lauper to get that line just right. Also, Steve Perry was/is very well versed in creating harmonies as they did in Journey. Steve was trying not to over-step too hard in his suggestions, which is why he said "I'm too burned out to tell anybody what to do", because he was feeling a little uncomfortable about doing that, but did want to help. Kenny described it as pretty interesting and amazing.

If ever anyone needed a demonstration of just how good a singer Cyndi Lauper is, this is it. She is wide-awake, aware and absorbing new information with every take until she found what she was looking for and the result is absolute perfection.
Great comment.
7:47 She interrupts her own conversation to harmonize, like it's a reflex.
I watched her interview somewhere that they told the 'bridge people' to just sing with all they got. The problem is, by nature Cindy's songs are much more powerful than Kim's. Her voice would totally eat Kim's (not saying Kim's bad, but her songs are just very different). She admitted that she tried to be polite and grasping how much she could 'gave her all'. Her conclussion was that strong 'Yea yea yeah' part, and not singing together with Kim.
There’s a recording of Michael singing at different notes or tones or keys or whatever for the producer to lay on top of each other..it’s absolutely breathtaking and beautiful. He was truly a musical genius. This song was a love child of a lot of people but came together beautifully.
Might you link us all the takes he did?

And the truth still stands: Those other folks in the clip couldn't sing a simple line or two on key. Not only that, some of them couldn't even sing on beat! How are they professional singers and can't even sing a few simple lines on key and on beat? Lmao!
That's just bad singing. Period.
And don't try to use MJ as a scapegoat. It doesn't matter if a singer's singing next to Michael Jackson or Roseanne Barr. If you're a so-called professional singer, you should be able to sing simple notes on beat with relative ease. Especially if you're singing in a group because the other voices naturally mask a bad note here and there.
That's why people who are picked to sing solos (like Michael Jackson in this clip) tend to be the best singers in the group. It's because when singing solos there's no other voices to hide behind. If a soloist sings a bad note (like Cyndi Lauper in this clip), it's more noticable.
And I don't even hate Cyndi or the others. I've heard them sing before and they sound alright in their specific genre at times.
But this clip just proves that there's a huge difference between "performers" and real, talented singers. This clip shows why MJ is the King of Pop.
