WHO DO YOU KNOW (DEMO) (5:21)
Ecrit par Michael Jackson
Produit par Michael Jackson
La chanson a été travaillée en 1980, mais Michael Jackson y travaillait toujours en février 1982 et la considérait comme une chanson pour l’album Thriller. Lorsqu’il n’a pas réussi à la garder pour « Thriller », Michael l’a considéré à nouveau pour l’album Victory des Jacksons mais a choisi de contribuer trois autres chansons à cet album : « State of Shock », « Be Not Always » (co-écrit avec son frère Marlon) et « The Hurt » (co-écrit avec son frère Randy, David Paich et Steve Porcaro). Cette démo n’a jamais été publiée auparavant.
Who Do You Know, écrite et produite par Michael Jackson a été mentionnée dans une déposition de 1993.
Les paroles :
I’ve lost my baby
Two years ago
Have you seen her?
She seems to be on a mission
Long ago when I smiled, did you notice her? Oh lord…
She was only playin’
Waiting for love, gonna get you this, oh lord…
Well, she seems to have left me
What in all of love
Can you tell me which way did she go? (Alright)
Tell me who do you know?
Who do you know?
Who do you know?
Who do you know?
She was only playin’
With this guy
Did you notice this, oh lord…
She seemed to not have listened
Then my baby smiled
Did you notice this, oh lord…
She was just missin’
Lovin’ this guy
Gonna get you this, oh man… (Ooh, ooh)
But she seems to have left me
What in all of love
Can you tell me which way did she go?
Oh
Tell me who do you know? (Oh)
Who do you know? (I lost my baby)
Who do you know?
Who do you know? (Ooh)
She said that she was leavin’
On a midnight train
Did you notice that, she was just dreaming?
Ooh-ooh
She said that she was grievin’
Who would only notice?
But that message isn’t mine
But I’m only whom you belong to
Belong to…
I’ve lost my baby
Two years ago
Have you seen her? (Right, yeah)
Waiting for love, gonna get you this, oh lord…
Well, she seems to have left me
What in all of love
