Going back to Alabama - Kenny Rogers + MJ on background vocals

Goin' back to Alabama...
Now that I´ve learned a thing or two
Life for me had been so easy
But I´ve got some livin' yet to do

'Cause a man who walks by the side of the road
Can turn himself around
He can pick himself up
And dust himself off
And start all over again
My friend...

Some days I didn´t wanna wake up in the mornin'
My family and friends were all down on me
I tried to tell 'em where I was goin'
But they never saw the man I saw in me

Some folks call me a dreamer
Other folks laughed and called me a fool
All I ever wanted to be was a winner
'Cause I know a winner can never lose

'Cause a man who walks by the side of the road
Can turn himself around
He can pick himself up
And dust himself off
And start all over again.....

Eaten alive - Diana Ross + MJ on background vocals

Animal stalking you at night
I´m a sucker for someone
And I got the prey in sight
Lying on a bed of leaves
In the modern times
You forget and let your spirit breathe

Capture me my blood is red
Another vitim of your ritual
For you my skin is shed
Ecstacy ain´t what you find
In the modern world
One flick of my tongue changes
The meaning of the world
And you say
That´s impossible
That´s not impossible to do, oh
And you digest what I can see
The taste of you can be

CHORUS:
I don´t wanna get eaten alive
'Cause you´re so dangerous
No more hearts I can trust, you see
I don´t wanna get eaten alive
To be eaten alive
Eaten alive
I don´t ever wanna be
Eaten alive......

Just friends - Carole Bayer Sager & Michael Jackson

You and me
We´ve traded hearts
I guess that´s how
It always starts out
And then I guess it always ends

Look at us
(Now)
Sayin'
I don´t think that you and me
Can just be friends
Maybe this is how the whole thing
Has to just end

And if we could
Have loved enough
(La la dee, la la dee dah dah, la la dah, la la dah, la la dah, la...)
We would have handled
When it got rough
But one of us let go too soon

So here we are
(Here we are)
Now sayin'
I don´t think that you and me
Can just be friends
Maybe this is how the whole thing
Has to just end

I wish you´d understand.........

Get it - Stevie Wonder and MJ

Miss Lady Girl
Is putting her love on the shelf
'Cause she don't want
To be hurt by nobody else

She's taken her heart
And put it away under lock and key
But its high time
Miss Lady Girl sets her heart free and gives her love to me

Some think that diamond rings, fancy cars
Will make a big impression
But I know that all she needs is my tender
Love and affection
Cause she still says

That no one's gonna get it
No one's gonna get it, oh no
But someone's gotta get it
And I feel that I will be the one who will
No one's gonna get it
No one's gonna get it, oh no
But someone's gotta get it
And I know that I will be the one who will.......

The Man - McCartney + MJ

There´s a man
Who plays the game of life so well, ooh
There´s such a man
His thoughts you can never tell, ooh
And it´s just the way he thought it would be
'Cause the day has come for him to be free
Then he laughs, he kicks then rolls up his sleeves
I´m alive and I´m here forever
This is the man

And it´s just the way he thought it could be
'Cause the day has come for him to be free
Then he laughs, he kicks then rolls up his sleeves
I´m alive and I´m here forever
This is the man....

I'm in love again - Minnie Riperton & Michael Jackson

I´m in love again
This time I think that it´s for real
I´m in love again
I think I know just how you feel

It´s like waking early on Christmas morning
And finding the toy of your dream
And that´s the way you make me feel, girl
And that´s the way that it should be

I´m in love again
This time I think that it´s for sure
I´m in love again
It´s what I´ve lived my whole life for.....

Whatzupwitu - Eddie Murphy + MJ on background vocals

Sun is gonna shine
Flowers gonna grow
Clouds´ll sprinkle showers
Rivers gonna flow
Man ain´t got the power
To kill nothing but himself
Man is a creation
Man is nothing else

Whatzup, whatzup, whatzupwitu
Whatzup, whatzup, whatzupwitu

Always is the mountain
Always is the tree´s
Always is the ocean
Always is the sea´s
We can´t stop this world 'cause it´s not
Our world we can just jack each other up
Heavenly been mighty patient
He got your number peeped your disease
He knows you´re falling, you´re falling, you´re falling...
Man is a creation
Man is nothing eles

Whatzup, whatzup, whatzupwitu
Whatzup, whatzup, whatzupwitu

Fly away - Rebbie Jackson + MJ on background vocals

Our love's in motion
Give me a notion 'cause
You know we'll never part
Our love goodbye

I love in season
Give me a reason 'cause
You know we'll never part
Our love goodbye

And together we'll fly
I'll give you my heart
No place too far for us
We don't need it....
