Michael Jackson... Incredible Talent... Surrounded by amazingly creative people...
With a song like Earth Song, as dense as the arrangement is, you really can't fully take in and appreciate what went into making the song unless you are able to hear some of the original, isolated musical parts. The vocals alone on this song are otherworldly!
WELL... I have been given the original studio multitracks for Michael Jackson's "Earth Song"!! In this video, we get to solo out vocals, choir, bass, drums, guitar... ALL of the incredible separated out instruments that went into this marvelous creation!
Join me as I listen through the whole multitrack song session and get to notice so many Easter eggs and nuances we'd NEVER have the privilege of hearing! ...From the way MJ moves in the studio and how that movement informs his performance and the whole mix, to musical parts and effects I didn't even know were there!
MJ's copyright owners will allow this video to remain on youtube but there must be consistent use of frequent stops. No one part of the the song in part or in whole can be played without frequent interruptions. This is partially why I stop and comment and sing during and after key sections that I play. If I just play the files, the video will be taken down. Presenting the files in this format with this kind of flow cements the FAIR USE intent which is why it can remain up on UA-cam. Along these lines, I can not reveal where or link to the source files or I'll get a takedown notice as well. Giving away content that is not mine to give also falls outside of FAIR USE intent. Thanks for understanding and for enjoying the video! I'm excited for you to hear all the wonderful nuances!
To hear MJ vocals isolated is a privilege!
Whoa
@@jooei2810 there's a few on UA-cam if you search studio recording Michael Jackson
Makes sense when you put it that way. Thanks for the vid!
The entire choir/orchestra section is what I wish I had on a loop,
well done.
"You don't hear music as much as this anymore!"-Chris😭.
MJ was and is undoubtedly the greatest showman of all!
right
That man was simply a genius. He could hear every single instrument that he wanted to have in his songs before he even recorded it!
Michael Jackson was a unique individual. God bless his soul.
I’ve always loved Michael’s “soul voice” that’s pure emotion, straight from the soul.
I know y’all think that’s his “Rock Voice” but it’s actually Gospel influenced belting
Exactly. Michael said gospel was his favorite genre and it is displayed in all of his music.
wow
I tear up each time when the choir comes in and MJ belts out loud!
Haha thank you! I said the same thing while watching the video. That climax coulda been in somebody’s church on a Sunday! And his skip-hop-kick that he would do was definitely “shout” inspired! Pretty much… Mike took us to church on the end of this song and I have ALWAYS loved that about this song!
The call and response portion is the most Church thing I've ever heard in pop. I can't believe I didn't catch it till now
Funny thing,
I sang on this song the other day and when it came to the "What about us" stage near the end of the song I was so humbled by MJs powerful voice, that I switched to do his background vocals LMAO
He's gotta be the Goku of the singing world
I always thought that "Earth song" was one of his underrated gems up there with his best!
Me also. Its so powerful.
But the crazy thing is this song was never considered underrated. This song was wild when it came out.
My favorite song for the progression. It starts smooth and at the end this is screaming and epic.
It’s sad everything he’s saying still apply almost 30 years later
No matter what your favourite or least favourite MJ song is, he will always have an impact with his/it's storytelling or rhythm arrangements, that's why he's considered to be the "Goat" of the industry
😉👊🏾💙🌟🐐🎩👑
I have to say, after too many years of Michael being badly treated it's wonderful to see so many professionals show people the true level of Michaels Talent.
Michaels Talent and ability is WILDLY under appreciated, and is so still to this day - when you hear and see his songs de-contructed, I'm specifically talking about you and "Home Studio Simplified" it really makes you understand what an incredible instrument Michael was and IS
Just wow. The best ever.
I don't think I'll ever cease to be inspired by MJ
Absolutely this!
It is true for his latter days, but for almost two decades he ruled Pop and dominated in every major award. His popularity back then proved that Michael was never under appreciated by both fans and professionals alike.
@@ultuma Not really, after his grammy haul for Thriller, Michael was largely ignored by the mainstream awards. Bad album did not win any Grammys. The press only talked about his image more than music, and all the press he got was negative. After 1993, he was pushed outside the mainstream. He never toured America again & Earth Song was never released as a single in the US, TDCAU prison version was banned. He was ostracised & otherised.
@@globalcitizenn even if he is mistreated by the media he keeps his fans in cinema, song, art etc... and individuals. Whose proof are we talking about so long after his death? And in many countries, he is still listened to and much loved. He marked his time so much that he is not forgotten.
As músicas eram cheias de camadas e voz dele era a percussão da música pura emoção
13:42 Goosebumps and actually tearing up hearing the "what about us" section stripped down like that. Wow.
Michael out here clearing his throat and stomping and letting his earphone bleed onto the mic on my favorite MJ song and the producers left it in. This song is super wild, and I'm amazed how the imperfections help make it that much more perfect. Love it.
MJ typically snapped his fingers & danced while recording, never one to just stand still lol. His engineers were used to that & left these “effects”, even listed in the credits sometimes :)
This isn't a one song occurrence he does it in basically all his songs it just so happens that this is the only one you seen
No kidding! I kept it all. cheers
@@oemisc2880 true!
very human sounding i love it
The “what about us” part 🔥
Quite honestly that choir and gritty lead vocal at the end is the holy grail - wow
abso-freakin-lutely!!
"Keep The Faith" from the dangerous album is the same duality type mj song, soft whispy to raspy rock God, the bridge with the choir is out of this world, check it out
@@mrfreeze2446 thanks man good tip… I’ll check it out
this is the most beautiful song in the world❤
It truly is
I love when Michael sung in his rock voice 🤘🏽
Me too! :)
Me too
Or Soul
Exactly. His voice was so versatile
@@user-p7up8l4k no way you did this over an emoji... on a comment that's almost two months old. and stop forcing your religion on other people
MJ even clears his throat in the mix and its still in! We spend ages either removing that stuff or make sure it's not in their in the first place. Maybe we should leave it all in, and all the bad notes and stuff. MJ is truly the best. Only he could make bad things sound good. The best ever artist.
I love how he left that heavy breathing and noises in the record...that makes everything natural and perfect
I'm so Fuc* happy! listening to this! Thanks Chris!! :3
:) I'm happy you're happy... It's pretty awesome to be able to listen to this stuff like this!!!
@@chrisliepe thank you Chris. This change my perspective about music. Everything doesn't need to really sounds perfect. It is just the context of the song. Michael is legend
Seriously makes me so happy to see people appreciating Michael for his artistry. People dialoging about it, dissecting it and appreciating it the way he did the artists he admired. It's his legacy!
I always knew, in the end he will have won, even if he paid too much
He is the OG of going from soft vocals to tear your face off aggression and grit in exactly where the song needs it. Prince was similar. Great stuff, Chris. Thanks for sharing!
i love Prince and is in my head by decades in his differents flavours and with his musician brand, but MJ have had something more difficult to " intercept " also by some musicians. MJ and Prince research are different declinations, imho. pls excuse my english
While I wouldn’t equate her to MJ, you should check out Nina Hagen. If you’re not familiar with her, she’s at this point kind of the grandma of punk-goth (started in the 70s), but is actually the daughter of a famous German opera singer, and so Nina has that training. She can turn her voice _on a dime_ from gravelly to operatic to delicate from one note to the next. Look for a video called “Naturträume”. It’s absolutely amazing vocal work, even if you don’t care for the music at all!
He took it to church at the end: a lot of black churches are heavy with call & response throughout the entire service.I love this!
that orchestra transition into the choir was unbelievable
This and Man in the Mirror are the only songs that can made me cry without beeing sad. Its so powerfull, the music the arragement and the lirycs, for me the two best songs in the human history
ないす
no doubt about that!
All of the above are nothing without Mj's voice
Don't forget the Stranger in Moscow song. With high quality audio you can hear stuff in that song you did not even know exist.
Try to listen to smile by mi lol
100% passion, that MJ! You can't not feel it!
People forget, he made these songs, the beats, everything. On that interview with Oprah he explains he was very good at beat boxing, that's what got him to into having such wonderful songs, he was using his own creativity, turned it into a song.
Also you think these problems you saw, think of the time they were recording this versus now. He would of have the best mixed songs nowadays, but at that time, were still so revolutionary, especially when you look at his early songs.
If you search Michael Jackson beatboxing there's a compilation of more
13:43 I got chills.
4:27 ethereal . Absolutely ethereal ❤️
The amazing fact about this song is that Michael worked on this song for 7 years before he released it (1988-1995). This shows how much of a visionary he was, very hard-working man.
What an absolute gift. It's official, Michael Jackson was a God in artistic form lol. Miss him 😢
deeply
Michael uses his whole body as an instrument whether that be his vocals, foot stomps, finger snaps, chest slaps, leg slaps ect. He was so creative he was in the moment and improvosed he didn't hear the song he felt it a true musical genius
The grit and aggression his voice had in the Dangerous era blew my mind as a kid back then....and still does now.
You just don't hear POP singers do that anymore. Or before.
I wonder why not....it sounds so cool....
Most just can't I suspect.
@@dezzee100Exactly. They don't have the capacity
Some rock singers can be that much aggressive, but their quiet or soft sound might not be too good. But I found Steve Tyler has similar qualities.
I LOVE the "imperfect" doubled vocal -- Michael was human! And the recording sounds perfect in its humanity. So beautiful.
Also, his grit/aggression is unmatched in pop music, imo.
Aggression maybe isn't the right word. Insistent, maybe?
It's amazing, his soft vocal is so intimate, even tentative sometimes, but his grit is so solid. It's like a volcano in the ocean: his voice can be the calm waters or the lava, the ocean breeze or the crashing waves.
Metaphors galore, but listening to soloed stuff just evokes all this visualization for me.
It really was the right choice because this song calls for emotion rather than perfection. MJ was obviously a master of both though.
@@geminijinxies7258 Perfection is overatted in art. It only fits certain industrialized & commercialized products.. Emotion is everything, because emotion is the perfection itself... And MJ *_"perfectly"_* captures and present the emotion
I think it was a conscious choice to make the vocals "imperfect". Michael was capable of doing both perfect as well as imperfect. I love it too BTW
Totally agree about the "imperfections" being intentional -- I always had the impression nothing Michael did with music or choreography was unintentional. This performance, to me, makes Michael more human, more relatable, and puts the spotlight on the emotion of the performance. Wonderful.
There’s been many copycat attempts but there’ll only ever be one MJ. It doesn’t matter your fave genre. Everybody who appreciates good music appreciates Michael Jackson.
so true!
this is EASILY one of the top 3 greatest songs EVER written and performed.
hearing his feet stomping behind it almost makes me cry.
The world was robbed of his potential music. Amazing that you got those files.👍🏻
Interesting story about that end vocal, Michael was discussing with the sound engineers a song Paul McCartney had wrote and sung to the point he “lost his voice” for weeks after the vocal track was produced.
Michael used this as inspiration for that last part. He also “blew his voice out” for some time after this vocal.
You can really hear the passion in what he’s saying, to me this is Michael’s voice at its full potential. (Furthest we’ve heard him push it in the studio anyway).
Oh... cool story! thanks for sharing!
It was the vocal to Twist and Shout sung by John Lennon. MJ sang the ad libs at the end of the record, on the very last night of recording...
what an absolute treasure this is. Chris, you look like a kid at a candy shop.
Glad you enjoyed!
I want to hear "Stranger in Moscow"... That's my favorite mix...
Man.....me to!!!!
There is a studio acapella version and its really nice UA-cam it
My mind is utterly blown! What an incredible gift to be able to experience this great song and massive talent in such a hands-on way. Thanks for taking us along for the ride! Can’t wait for more!
You're very welcome!
Absolutely amazing 🤩 purely goosebumps, what a firework of musicality
The MJ multitracks are avaialbe all over the web for years. This is nothing new nor exclusive. Multiple songs. You don't need an youtuber who's obviously using MJ talent to promote his voice lessons to "take you along for the ride". What a pathetic lie to get views.
@@claudep.1926 you should just troll somewhere else. I love Chris's excitement for the magical sounds of Michael Jackson. MJ gets more and more fans as time goes on!
I remixed this incredible song back in 1995 for epic records. Here is my story: Hmmm, not sure where to begin telling this story without mentioning what an incredible story it is. I gave this song everything I got. When I first heard the “HIStory” album, “Earth Song” jumped at me!!!. I was simply blown away by this masterpiece. I was not shy or intimidated to mess with it a bit.
Back in 1995 I only had one sampler. It only had room for 3 min of sampling time. I had to do this in 2 parts to fit what I needed. I remember how many times I got chills listening to the arrangement. Upon finishing it I was not sure what to do with it as I had no connections at Epic / Sony. I gave my “Earth Song” Remix on a DAT to Frankie Knuckles and the rest, as they say, is HIStory 😉
Frankie told me this ” Hani, you did exactly what this song deserved, Your work is sublime, you should have seen the reaction on the dance floor”. I was so happy. I heard Frankie play it on the air at New York’s station Hot 97 several times. 3 weeks went by then one morning my friend Michael McDavid excited on the phone telling me that Frank Ceraolo (A&R Epic) at the time is looking for me. I called Frank who was very excited and happy about it yet mentioned that Epic had no plans on releasing Earth Song at the time. He pitched it to Michael Jackson’s manager for approval. Epic actually had another MJ song in mind slated for release called “This Time Around“. A big remix package was ready to go however, the label thought it wasn’t strong enough. They simply needed this!!
Upon MJ’s approval of my remix, I learned later on that MJ is going all out with a big budget Video to “EARTH SONG”. Boom!!
In order to complete the remix package, I was granted access to his studio room at the famous Hit Factory. Upon entering the room my eyes went directly to the TR-909 Drum Machine & JUNO-106 Synth that both had his name printed on. I instantly gained even more respect for MJ. This man liked to mess around with gear too. I sat at the SSL Console for few hours extracting all the parts to “Earth Song” on DAT. The stems/parts to this song are unreal and out of this world. I left the Hit Factory that night with so much more respect for MJ as I was pretty sure this time how big this is going to be.
Two months later The song reached No:1 in several countries. In the UK it stayed at No:1 for Six weeks during Christmas 95′.
IN 1996 My “Earth Song” Remix got included on a Michael Jackson album! “Blood On The Dance Floor”. Here it is : ua-cam.com/video/4SzHNJ-4M38/v-deo.html
please email me at info@mymusicalvoice.com ....WOW... What a story that is! I'd love to talk with you further if you're up for it!?
Few months later I got commissioned to remix Mj’s “Stranger In Moscow” for Epic / Sony! ua-cam.com/video/7pJ3Vzb3irk/v-deo.html
You rock man!
Hey I know Hani’s Remix of the Earth Song. I remember downloading it from UA-cam! Must have been at least ten years ago. The mp3 is probably still on my iPod classic. Thank you for the incredible remix!
What a wonderful story, this is simply amazing, Thank you for sharing this and for believing in yourself enough to produce such a quality mix. From die hard MJ fans around the world, we love these stories, keep them coming.
What strikes me the most is how Michael was able to control how much imperfection was in his voice with more accuracy than just about any vocalist. If you listen to the first track only without the doubling, the first thing I noticed is that he didn't sounded technically perfect, which clearly was intent; but I didn't quite got how the vocals could sound this perfect in the final mix without correction at the time, until I heard the doubling. So he made a first lead pass with all emotions, slightly imperfect on pitch, and doubled it, but the doubling is 100% accurate, as a vocalist of this level would do, but significantly more detached from the meaning of the song as well... so *that's* how he was able to sound so emotional and perfect at the same time...! :O Even the best performers have a trick or two up their sleeves, but this blows my mind to bits. He was not on the same head space, but on purpose! That's what I call a pro gamer's move!
What a giant. I also love that the labeling was done with the *intent*, like the intent of those swelling synths was to make them feel like a choir, so the track is labeled "voices". It's so cute and genius at the same time!
Really great comment! That tiger voice at the end make that song my favorite ever to sing, dance and listen to!
PERFECT!!! 🤍even Michelangelo, who MJ loved to draw inspiration from, at least as a responsibility of himself as an artistic galaxy, in the Vatican
(religion has nothing to do with it, let's be clear about art) made statues that are perfect if viewed from below, where it is people, but when seen closely ( where people can not go ) , they are greatly out of proportion, precisely in function of their being perfect from where the public would have seen them.
Similar to MJ's way of building vocal harmonies on the last few records (the ones without QJ, my favorites, without detracting from that crazy production of the first MJ)
@@AnthonySigouin sing? can you sing the "tiger parts" (of course keeping that feeling) of this song? or, of course you know them, even just live adlibs?
@@brodinieghi822 Yes, I can but not as powerful than him.
@@AnthonySigouin 🤝🤝🤝👍
This song is one of the greatest ever written, period. The lyrics, the music and the raw emotion. It is just something else.
That instrumental run at 13:15 is stunningly composed! Has to be one of the best multi-genre songs ever written and performed!
That instrumental run sounds like the Avengers theme music! Incredible
That is absolutely beautiful
I cant find it in the original song pls tell me whats the timestamp is
13:16 wow wow wow!!! This song really was his magnum opus.
Special song this. Michael Jackson was incredible. He is missed.
That ’compressed’ sing-screaming … omg. 💟 So much passion and expression.
the backing vocals with the light synth, is amazing 4:12
*I WOULD* buy every MJ song again for $100 each, if there was a multi-track version available.
It is much easier to hear things in completed songs after you know there are, thanks to the multi-track version.
I would too.
That's funny. During the video I thought if they would have released that instead of the finished song I woud pay for it :D
Yes! Once you’ve heard this, the whole completed song sounds even 10 times better.
Finally someone talked about this! The ending always blew me away! There's so much aggression and beauty in that section and it's also super long! You gotta have shitloads of stamina to pull that off and make it sound good without blowing out your voice!
There’s a reason why covers of this song come out flat, like something missing. Even great vocalists can’t give it the oomph it deserves
@@oemisc2880 Michael was one of a kind indeed!
@@saysthemanbehindthemask definitely
As told elsewhere by people involved, the recording of the ending of Earth Song was the last he scheduled for the History album, so he could use his voice as freely as possible.
find the ad libs of tis song on YT, in Brunei
The bass sounds crazy in the mix as all your ears pick out is the top of the sound, and you don't really hear all the fret buzzes etc. Very clever.
MICHAEL JACKSON IS THE TRUE GENIUS! ALL HIS MUSIC, HIS DIVINE CREATION AND HIS UNIQUE AND BEAUTIFUL VOICE ONLY HE COULD GIVE US ALL HIS LOVE!!! I LOVE YOU MICHAEL JACKSON!!!
His voice is past the point of incredible. Literally the ONLY voice that can bring me to absolute tears. Words will never be able to convey just how incredible he is. No words. THANK YOU FOR THE BREAKDOWN👏🏽
EARTH SONG from Michael Jackson, is one of my favorite songs ever!
OMG, I would just die if I had this!!! As a musician, I could literally play with those tracks and make a duet with Michael lol! I'm literally in tears listening to this.
I automatically get that the slight off pitch part in Michael's vocal fade out was his way to give a signal for the key change to start and proceed with the next portion of the song.
The back up choir sounds very much like Andre Crouch's choir and they are all beautiful singers in their own right and I think it was pure genius for Michael to have them sing on this with him because it adds extra depth, character, soul and authenticity to the lyrics, sound and message being put a across with the song.
One of MJ's best traits was how insanely layered and full the audio production is, with theajority of chorus vocals being recorded separately and then mixed to 1 track before recording and adding/mixing other tracks.
The section at 13:30 is very reminiscent of a pentecostal church. I remember when I used to go to church as a kid back in the 80's, whenever the preacher would get really into whatever he was preaching, he would hit a similar note and tone as Michael here, the choir and the band would back him up in a very similar fashion. It's a very moving experience.
Micheal used his body as an instrument in the music. He was one of the most purist dancers/musicians in the industry. He threw out all the rules of recording in the studio. What he was inspired to do in the booth became part of the song and was often emphasized on stage. The stage performance can be heard in its infancy upon creation of the song.
5:46, the unsettlement in his voice, you can tell that he's crying whilst singing this part which really shows how much he cared about the message of the song, trying to fix humanity and the world as we know it, as we keep trying to destroy it bit by bit. It's almost like he's trying to stress how blind and oblivious the world is
O my God why am i crying constantly listening to this. Its extremely overwhelming hearing his voice like he's singing besides me😢Thank you so much chris for uploading this masterpiece❤
Michaels passion was incredible....💕💕💕💕
Ugh. Earth Song is a difficult vocal masterpiece. The raw vocals amps up the emotional experience from this song.
i put it on my vocal suicide playlist lol
@@limerobloxgaming8567 😂😂
@@dougdoug9223 im serious lol
Can you imagine being in the booth with Mike while he belted out those last few minutes of this epic song? Easily one of the single most impressive vocal performances I've ever heard. Inhuman!
This is incredible. Michael Jackson was a supreme talent.
Michael was an absolute and unique blessing to this little planet. I'm grateful to have watched him over the years, and for this video! Goosebumps all over!! ❤️❤️❤️
So well said 😢
There is only one MJ...Listening this bring me back to the 90s in high school when I first heard this song...Listen to those carefully produced vocals, not to mention his range.Hes indeed the King of Pop!!!
I was stunned to hear at the beginning when he sang “what about the rain” with the vibrato that seems to go in reverse. Beautiful aching vibrato as if he was crying. What a treat! ❤️
I can't cope with how much he gives in the studio 😳 there are other AMAZING singers but his voice was TOTALLY UNIQUE. look at the contrast from his voice at the beginning and how it builds to the end 😭😭😭 not to mention he's doing ALL THE VOCALS minus the gospel choir. His voice really was his instrument 😭😭😭😭
I love all your MJ’s reaction
MJ was incredible artist.
You’re amazing
Thanks!
Wow -- as a sound engineer, a lifelong MJ fan, and this being one of my favourite songs ever, this was amazing! I've always been obsessed with the instrumentation and composition of this song (and of course MJ's incredible vocals!) and it's such a joy to hear them in this way! I am incredibly jealous lol.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Do you mix and master for people? I have a project coming out
@@ithiopiamckinney5096 I work for a specific studio I'm afraid. Good luck with the project though!
This treasure should be kept safe in order to prevent it from falling in some wrong hands that would try to recreate a new version and sell it for profit. But what a treasure this is! It makes me appreciate Michaels music even more and will have me listen to it in a whole new way!
God damn it (or should I say "thank you")- never fails, I always end up in tears w these. He was a once in a world legendary talent. My God
I feel the emotion in his voice
Michael Jackson songs are the best melodies emotional existed. Very proud to be Michael lovers. Thanks forever and ever dear angel. Love your magnificent voice 👑🙏🌟
Honestly 2 seconds after you hit play I teared up and had goosebumps. MJ was the biggest artist to have ever lived. Thank you for letting us experience this.
Vocally, this is a very unique song. He let loose on this one. Makes it that much more authentic and raw. Absolutely great video. Can’t wait for you to hear more of these. Being able to hear all of these raw tracks is absolutely mind-blowing. Hope you can get to some of the Off The Wall album multitracks too.
i think better albums to this kind of analysis are the post Quincy ones.
@@brodinieghi822totally. I think Quincy is greatly overrated to be honest.
4:11 just ascended to Heaven.. so lovely🥰 thank you for sharing the phenomenal work Michael created for the world to enjoy❤️
David foster did a rediculously amazing job on this song and can tell MJ poured his heart an soul into this song.
We love MJ The King of POP rock and Soul we miss him Always.. Thank you
He was a super talented angel
Oh my goodness.. I'm not a producer or musician.. I'm just a lifelong fan of Michael Jackson..
I stumbled across your videos breaking g down and exploring Michael voice and techniques and have spent all afternoon in tears listening to his outstanding voice..the gift that he gave to this world..
Listening to his raw vocald has just blown me away.. listening to this I feel like I'm actually standing next to him in the studio..😘❤😍 thankyou so much for the time you have taken to show just how incredible his voice and music and just how much he contributed to the industry...
I will will never get over the loss of this amazing gentle man who gave so much.. His music and that voice will live on and be admired thanks to people like you xxx much love and thanks from the UK xx
And that is what musical perfection sounds like folks!
I really didn't think Michael could blow my wig off anymore but here we are. My jaw is on the floor.
Whenever I hear Earth Song, it reminds me of the creation of life. It’s such a beautiful and powerful song. 4:12 and 6:24 made me feel like I was floating. 😮💨💕
I think that's my favorite video now
Go to "14:43"
You'll hear a different "what about us"
So cool
Man, hearing the isolated call and response vocals got me emotional over here.
How good does MJ sound from11:47-11:59 onwards with the acoustic guitar? It conjures visions of him singing this song in the middle of the most remote wilderness on the planet beside a camp fire. And 13:16 to 13:23 rivals anything from Star wars and LOTR.
🔥 🔥🔥
Chris I guess you didn’t know this, but, Michael Jackson beat boxed all the instruments in his songs because he couldn’t play any instruments. He would have musicians play and tune their instruments to his beat boxing. He basically did A cappella on his own. I would love to hear those recordings with everything layered on top of each other….I bet they would be so interesting to listen too.
Michael could play several instruments...
Yes it’s a misconception he couldn’t play instruments. He played multiple but he could beatbox so he didn’t need to
Michael Jackson's perfectionism/professionalism will likely never be matched.
Fun fact Michael Jackson actually sent this track to prince before releasing and when prince heard it he was amazed and said something along the lines of “He’s back” ..he was proud of Mj
They linked up during a studio session for history album
9:36 that bass is on point! 9:54 🙌🏾 13:15 😇
Wow.🤩 I remember being obsessed with this song as a kid. It really took me back to my bedroom at the time. I don’t know how you got hold of these but thank you for sharing. The music industry is missing a trick by not releasing multitracks to songs.
He had such a beautiful cry in his voice
7:41 the clap is always stuck in my mind when i listen to the song., it kind of reminds me that this was made by a human somewhere in a dim dark room in front of a microphone making all kind of body movements and faces just to tell what is bothering them, knowing what ripple will make for coming generations
Tears when the choir hits. Imagine a version in church with him choir and piano. love love love❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
13:37 ....instant goosebumps....
the last few minutes of this gave me goosebumps, incredible stuff. Thanks for sharing Chris.
Glad you enjoyed it Joe! Thanks for hanging with us today on Sing Together too!
Ah man, at 15:23 I couldn’t keep it together I teared up. The emotion in his voice just got right to my soul.
The chorus sounds so ethereal! That must be what heaven sounds like when you step inside of the gates!
Thanks for sharing, hearing Michael's talent so raw is both beautiful and upsetting.
This guy wrote so many number one hits. What a legend
I know that its privately to tell anybody, but can't believe its original and you get it!!! ! Screaming!!!! Wowwww!!!
