To everyone here because of MJ,
You gotta remember Jackson heard the track as the instrumental, it was being offered. IMO this song is 10x's better as the Instrumental. When you remove the vocals you can HEAR what Mike heard in it.. The Intro, The Verse, Bridge all has elements of Off The Wall.. I'm positive thats what caught Mikes attention... Here's what Michael heard, the instrumental https://youtu.be/e2sf08uUWKw
