Executive producer L.A. Reid has released another posthumous single off of Michael Jackson's Xscape. According to CNN, the single titled "Chicago" was initially titled "She Was Lovin' Me" and written by the King of Pop for his 2001 Invincible album, but it didn't make the cut. The track was updated by king producer Timbaland, who also happens to be the lead producer for the album Xscape.
"Chicago" definitely captures MJ's essence and trademark where he starts off a song with smooth and low vocals, then he amplifies and bellows midway through. Timbaland did an excellent job in complimenting the lyrics and passion in the King of Pop's voice. Overall, the track would probably entice massive amounts of choreographers to put together great moves.
Xscape will be Michael's second posthumous album since his 2009 passing. The 8-track album and 17-track deluxe album are set to be released on May 13th, 2014. You can pre-order it on Amazon.
"Chicago" - Michael Jackson Lyrics
I met her on my way to Chicago
Where she was all alone
And so was I
So I asked her for her nameShe smiled and looked at me
I was surprised to see
That a woman like that
Was really into meShe said she didn’t have no man
Raised her kids the very best she can (She was loving me)
She told me she was all alone
Said at home she didn’t have no phone (She was wanting me)
She said just to give her a page
To spend the night was the goal she played (She was loving me)
She lied to you, lied to me
Thought she was loving me, loving me
Yeah
I never would’ve thought she was living like that
Her words seemed so sincere
When I held her near
She would tell me how she feelsIt felt so real to me
This girl, she had to be
An angel sent from heaven just for meShe said she didn’t have no man
Raised her kids the very best she can (She was loving me)
She told me she was all alone
Said at home she didn’t have no phone (She was loving me)
She said just to give her a page
To spend the night was the goal she played (She was loving me)
She lied to you, lied to me
Thought she was loving me, loving me
YeahShe tried to live a double life
Loving me while she was still your wife (She was wanting me)
She thought that loving me was cool
With you at work and the kids at school (She was loving me)
She said that it would never end
Tried to keep me any way she can (She was wanting me)
She lied to you, lied to me
Because she had a family, family
YeahWhy Ooh no
Alright
Ohh
I feel your love, your loveI didn’t know she was already spoken for
‘Cause I’m not that kind of man
Swear that I would've never looked her way
Now I feel so much shame
And all things have to change
You should know that I’m holding her blameShe said she didn’t have no man
Raised her kids the very best she can (Holding her to blame)
She told me she was all alone
Said at home she didn’t have no phone (Holding her to blame)
She said just to give her a page
To spend the night was the goal she played (Holding her to blame)
She lied to you, lied to me
Thought she was loving me, loving me (Holding her to blame)
YeahShe tried to live a double life
Loving me while she was still your wife (Holding her to blame)
She thought that loving me was cool
With you at work and the kids at school (Holding her to blame)
She said that it would never end
Tried to keep me any way she can (Holding her to blame)
She lied to you, lied to me
Because she had a family, family
YeahShe said she didn’t have no man
Raised her kids the very best she can (She was loving me)
She told me she was all alone
Said at home she didn’t have no phone (She was loving me)
She said just to give her a page
To spend the night was the goal she played (She was loving me)
She lied to you, lied to me
Thought she was loving me, loving me
YeahShe tried to live a double life
Loving me while she was still your wife (She was wanting me)
She thought that loving me was cool
With you at work and the kids at school (She was loving me)
She said that it would never end
Tried to keep me any way she can (She was wanting me)
She lied to you, lied to me
Because she had a family, family
Yeah
