The singer Karen Carpenter the song was written about her she and Tom ( her ex boyfriend) had broken up and telling of his pain he wrote the song about her. And gave the song to Quiney Jones who thought MJ would do a great job with the song. and he did. the rest is history
Song written by Tom Bahler.
i think the lyrics and the feel of the song got to him and he just couldnt help himself. Thats wat makes him such a great entertainer----his vulnerability and innocence. so cute...
iloveyoumore I totally agree about the song possibly being about Tatum..
..but I still envy her haha
They were so cutee together
but wait hold on Mike didnt write it lol...so maybe he put in his emotions while he sang the song..Aww when he cries at the end..it just shows how vunerable he really is
..
i really think it's about Tatum O'neal because she was his 1st girlfriend,and if you remember from''living with michael jackson'' he said that she broke up with him b/c he wouldn't have sex with her[which was not right] poor Michael:'(
and it couldn't be about tatina b/c she came during the 'bad' era,and he sang that song when he was a lot younger
Apparently when they recorded that song in the studio, Michael couldn't stop crying at the end, and every time they rehearsed it, he cried every time, so eventually they just put that in the track. I think that's awesome that Michael is that vulnerable.
It was written by Tom Bahler. He had written about his own experience in a certain relationship, so thats how this song came to be.
i thought the song was for tatiana...after they broke up...
It was written by Tom Bahler; Michael also had a related story with this song as he explained it on his book "Moonwalk". He always hoped to marry Diana Rose until she told him she was going to get married somebody else. Between singing this song he said, he was emotional about it and that's why we hear him "cry" at the end of the song which made it sound more colorful and real.
no, I just think the lyrics got to him and he couldn't help but cry.
TessaK: Thank you
volitional: thanks! I thought it was about someone special because he started crying! But maybe it's not about anyone.
What you mean its not about me?
Damn!
found this on wikipedia
"The song was written by Tom Bahler after Karen Carpenter broke up with him upon discovering he had fathered a child with another woman."
Michael never wrote the song I think Quincy Jones bought it to his attention
Yeah good question, maaybe it wasn't about anyone?...but i would have thought it would be.
i♥Mj--x - you do come up with some very interesting questions!
It's a really good question....but sorry I don't know the answer....
We need somebody help
