The lyrics and those bad things have happened to him make me feel really hurt. He deserved much more and the world was TOO cruel to this innocent warm-hearted man..
damn, this flows so much better than the xscape version. this song was already finished, why on earth did Sony feel the need to reharmonize and rewrite instruments? this honestly could have been a single, it vibes so live
Such an amazing song, should have been a album track. The subject is so deeply serious and you hear the anger, frustration and sadness in his voice. Yet we still have some utterly dumb mofos in this world that believe he ever hurt a child. And thanks to a pathetic excuse for a TV network, a likewise sad excuse for a "documentary" director and two vultures who really should just die already....this whole nonsense of people thinking he was guilty continues. May all these liars, the actual criminals burn in hell!
Just the B E S T ! ! ! Oh, to have seen him perform this socially conscious, powerfully written song! Steve Lukather's guitar riff is off the charts! The Xscape producers tweaked this song too much. It was perfect just as it is! God, Michael was so talented! He was light years ahead of everyone!
@@AHLIYON sounds like one on one "O.P.P. - Naughty by Nature" This is not real Michael's demo !!!! But the most interesting thing is that in "O.P.P" there are samples from "ABC - Jackson 5"
this was perfect just as it is!!! why oh why oh why does sony keep remixing and rearranging songs of michael's??!!!! Ticks me off so much!! Michael KNEW what sounded great....not sony...not other miscellaneous artists remixing his perfect music until they've destroyed it and NO ONE on earth wants to hear it or buy it!! WHEN WILL SONY LEARN!!!!???? ugh.... pisses me off! THIS SONG WAS PERFECT JUST AS MICHAEL LEFT IT!!!! END OF STORY!! thank you so much for posting this...the ORIGINAL!!
Holy Moses I feel exactly the same! I wanted to hear this song, but not the remix, so I go on Spotify and click on what *they say* is the original version. I knew from the moment it started that it wasn't the original version, so I said, "Forget you, I'm gonna go find the *actual* original version" and came here. Also, thank you AHLI 3000 for posting this!
Mary T. Absolutamente, if you guys can, PLEASE Download this version and upload it to facebook, soundcloud and other places so fans all around the world can have the correct version since it'll be harder to find now since sony out that whack version

Holy Moses I know!! I love that they put the demo on Xscape, but why in gods name wasn't THIS version included?! My brain melted when it was leaked in 2010. This is pure, real Michael Jackson. Don't fix nothin that ain't broken! I love remixes, but the Xscape ones are awful. I can't listen to them! The only exception is LNFSG with JT.
Michael Jackson always brings us to the whole new world, new land of music. push it to the max limit of imagination of melody, vocal, lyrics, dances, moves... all these things made him was the Best of the best. how long we gonna have another one like him..???
This is the best version of the song to date and you can hear see a clear vision for the song which is lost in the remake on Xscape. Too bad as great jobs were done on 6 of the 8 (no co-incidence the first 6) and this could have been great!!!
I heard to XScape version only twice and I dislike it too much, I found it too boring . . . Now things has one is incredible, the beat, rhythm, and the rock touch just AMAZZZZZZZING!! I CAN'T STOP LISTEN TO IT!!! Seriously sir, thank you so much for uploading this and sharing it with us. Best regards.
i like this one better than the xscape version i couldve sworn up and down on Wikipedia they mention that slash did the solo in this song maybe im wrong
No, Slash did alot of guitar work for Michael, but Steve Lukather, former member of the group, Toto (Africa, Hold the Line) rocked the guitar riff on this song. The beat on this song is soooo Michael!
S L Trout MJ always work with the best producer , because simply he is the best. he knows every single sound and things to make a perfect song. the out come just incredible.
Thank you so much for uploading this! :D Its practically impossible to find the PROPER version now. What they did to this song in xscape is an absolute disgrace. I love this, the proper version, so much! When I first heard what they had done to it, it made me cry.
Yea but the label didn't want Michael to be too preachy, they felt he was moving to much Away from the music and focusing on World issues too much, with this abortion papers, man In the mirror, they label felt it was too much
This song always makes me think of when I wanted to run away from home because my teacher shouted at me...I read Michael`s book Moonwalk in the lesson...
My favorite version as well....shame that only a low mp3 quality version is available for this track. A real uncompressed flac version....or even better a official release would be awsome.
+christian luna I know, and Hip Hop Hooray etc... the person here asked what other song the beat sounds like, the answer is O.P.P. by Naughty By Nature, that's it.
