"HUMAN NATURE"
HUMAN NATURE NEW ZEALAND 7''

"...Looking out
Across the nighttime
The city winks a sleepless eye
Hear her voice
Shake my window
Sweet seducing sighs
Get me out
Into the nighttime
Four walls won't hold me tonight
If this town
Is just an apple
Then let me take a bite
If they say,
Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
Why, why, does he do it that way
If they say,
Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
Why, why does he do me that way..."

HUMAN NATURE 

AN UNRELEASED SINGLE : 
"BUTTERFLIES"

Butterflies was planeed as a third single release from the album "Invincible". Then something went wrong, and we all know the sad story. The album's promotion was met with trouble due to internal conflicts going on between Sony Music Entertainment and Jackson due to issues with his ownership with the company and the contract to this deal with Sony that was originally signed back in 1991. Not wanting to sign away his ownership in Sony Music Entertainment, Michael elected to leave the company shortly after the album's release.After the announcement, Sony halted promotion on the album, cancelling single releases, including a 9/11 charity single ("What more can I give?") that was intended to be released before Invincible.
After "You rock my world" and "Cry", at least 4 singles should have been released, following the promotion plans : "Butterflies", "Unbreakable", "Break of dawn" and "Whatever happens". Unfortunately, this didn't happen. Neverthless, "Butterflies" was only a radio single - peaking at a respectable #14 on Billboard Hot 100 only with radio airplay - and the track was released only on promo cd and on 2 different 12'' given to U.S. radio stations . The cd should include 4 tracks, including the "Master mix feat.Eve" and the "Acappella" version.
In the picture, you can see the single artwork.

THE RECORD OF THE WEEK :
THE WAY YOU MAKE ME FEEL
USA PROMO CD EPIC ESK2862
Among the rarest american promo cds released to promote the album "Bad", there's this copy of "The way you make me feel". It contains the remixes we can easily find on almost all the 12'' releases. Why did I choose THIS cd among the others? Simply because we don't have an european release for this single, neither a japanese one (except for the 3'' single which does not contains the remixes) and this is the ONLY release to have the "The way you make me feel" remixes on cd, in digital quality.
We recently, have had the opportunity to get the "Dance extended remix" remastered on some "King of Pop" releases, but the "Dub version" as well as the "Acappella" one still remains a prerogative of this promotional cd single!

HAPPY VALENTINE from

"...Do you remember
How we used to talk
(Ya know)
We'd stay on the phone at night till dawn
Do you remember
All the things we said like
I love you so I'll never let you go
Do you remember
Back in the Spring
Every morning birds would sing
Do you remember
Those special times
They'll just go on and on
In the back of my mind...
Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time
When we first met girl
Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time
Those sweet memories
Will always be dear to me
And girl no matter what was said
I will never forget what we had
Now baby!..."

"This time around I'll never get bit
Though you really wanna fix me
This time around you're making me sick
Though you really wanna get me
Somebody's out
Somebody's out to get me
They really wanna fix me, hit me
But this time around I'm taking no s...
Though you really wanna get me
You really wanna get me
He really thought he really had
Had a hold on me
He really thought he really had
They thought they really had control of me
He really thought he really had
Control of me
He really thought he really had
They thought they really could control me..."

THE RECORD OF THE WEEK : 
MUSIC & ME VENEZUELA TAMLA MOTOWN LPS.88127

Not all the collectors will say "wooooow" when they see this record but...I can confirm you that is a rare rare press. It's a "Music & me" from Venezuela, released on Tamla Motown label.
Not only it's hard to find a copy, but it's even harder to find it in conditions like the one you see in the pictures:it still has its original shrinkwrap! That's why deserves the palce of "Record of the week".

"They print my message in the Saturday Sun
I had to tell them I ain't second to none
And I told about equality and it's true
Either you're wrong or you're right
But, if you're thinkin' about my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white
I am tired of this devil
I am tired of this stuff
I am tired of this business
Sew when the going gets rough
I ain't scared of your brother
I ain'ts scared of no sheets
I ain't scared of nobody
Girl when the goin' gets mean...."
