Chicago 1945 aka Chicago Night

"Chicago 1945" (reworked as "Chicago Night") is a unreleased song by Michael Jackson scrapped from his albums Bad and Invincible. The story of the track seems to change. Most recent one given by Steve Porcaro is that it was recorded a week after Thriller released (December 1982). However, he said the exact same about Dream Away, and previously stated Chicago 1945 is from 1984, sometime before the Victory tour. To recap, the actual creation date is currently unknown. Steve Porcaro on Toto's site years ago: "Years ago, Michael and I wrote a song called Chicago 1945 – I did the music and Michael the lyrics, he recorded the song twice, but never put it on an album… the instruments were played in a constant rhythm in the 16th note, which was called ‘yada’. When I explained this to Michael, he liked it so much he gave me that nickname!". Porcaro was approached by the estate about using it on Xscape, but didn't give them the permission, as he thought the...

I sing of what you see and might think about Because of what you see Moving hands, mobile faces Where by the eye Not the ear traces what's on the mind So when you see hands Weaving the space between friends Think of them as being As though you were seeing voices Speech without sound face to face, hands unbound Weaving the space between friends So, think of them as being As though you were seeing voices Believe it they ramble on exactly as we would And talking with someone we know And even they stumble on expressions as we would And talking with anyone So.. When you see hands weaving The space between friends Think of...

Throwing Your Life Away

"Throwing Your Life Away" is an unreleased song by Michael Jackson. The song was recorded on September 8, 1988, while MJ was touring. It was produced while still working with Quincy Jones. The track was reworked in 2009, with the CD appearing in court documents of Jeffre Phillips' lawsuit. The title was later featured on a note with titles of songs he wanted to finish, found in Jackson's house after his passing. It was picked up to be reworked for Jackson's first posthumous studio album, Michael, with the title being changed to "(Stop) Throwing Your Life Away", which was registered with U.S. Copyright Office. The remix was done by Neff-U and Michael Prince. Damien Shields: "The original 1988 Throwing Your Life Away is much stronger. Neff-U did the 2010 remix, but he didn’t have access to a multi-track. He added new strings and guitar on top of the 88 original. Those new layers drowned MJ’s vocal out, so the remix is far less powerful, in my opinion....

Jane is a Groupie

"Jane is a Groupie" is a unreleased song by Michael Jackson scrapped from his 8th studio album Dangerous. It was co-written with Sly Stone and recorded in 1989. The song was basically MJ messing around in the studio, hence the lyrics are so incomplete, with MJ repeating the title throughout the track. It ultimately didn't go anywhere and was scrapped. Song is also early idea for his song "Give In To Me". On September 5, 2018, the song leaked as a low quality recording from Brad Sundberg's seminars.

Dream Away

"Dream Away" is an unreleased song by Michael Jackson scrapped from his studio album Bad. The song was written and recorded in December, 1982, a week after Thriller was released. The song is co-produced with Steve Porcaro, who previously made Human Nature, with which Dream Away shares many similarities. Similarly to Chicago 1945, Porcaro was asked about including the song on Xscape, although he didn't approve it as he doesn't support the estate's "straight to remix" approach. On November 15th 2022, a low quality recording of the song from Steve Porcaro's seminars leaked online. We could sail away our dreams to our Never Neverland We could kiss the world and wish upon a distant star I could say the future, hope for us has different promises And the answers lie deep inside your lovely eyes I could look inside your mind and tell that you’re far away Don’t say a word, just let me whisper inside your ear I could see that you are trying hard to be my frien...
