The original version of “Do You Know Where Your Children Are” was leaked by American producer Eulonzo on June 16th, 2024. It was unknown this version existed.
Although fans are familiar with the second original version from 1986-1990, as well as the contemporized version on the “Xscape” album, it has been revealed that “Do You Know Where Your Children Are” was originally written and recorded as far back as 1984-1986 during the Victory, Forever and early Bad sessions, on and off, with members of The Rag Tag Band, at Westlake Recording Studios in Los Angelos.
Written by Michael, the song's lyrics pertain to the events of an underage girl who undergoes child sexual abuse and neglect, the song was directly inspired by a public service announcement (aka “PSA”) for parents on US television from the late 1960s through the late 1980s. Accompanied by a time announcement, this phrase was typically used as a direct introduction for the originating station's late-evening newscast, typically at either 10:00 p.m. or 11:00 p.m. While the phrase itself had appeared in newspapers as early as the 19th century, usage of it in broadcasting started in the early 1960s following the enactment of nightly youth curfews for minors in multiple large cities.
This version was produced in a collaborative effort between himself, Joe Kehr, and members of The Rag Tag Band. Shortly after writing the song, they began working further on this version around 1984-1986. Additionally, each member of The Rag Tag Band contributed to the song. Lead keyboardist E. Phillinganes added finger cymbals and an organ solo, while Joe later brought in Barron and Eric for horn overdubs. Later on during the session, Sarah Greim (aka “Syradelic”) provided a guitar solo that differs from the solo that was recorded in the second version done in 1986-1990.
At the last minute, Michael decided to interpolate ‘Wanna Be Startin’ Something’ into the extended portion, in which The Rag Tag Band recorded background vocals for the ‘Mama-say-mama-sa-mama-coosa’ chant. While the song runs a little over 4 minutes, the full-length version is around 10 minutes long with an extended jam, with a vamping false-fade. Due to time constraints, the song was edited down to potentially fit on a vinyl if they ever decided to put it on an album. There’s also rumored to be slightly sped-up versions that were made for vinyl.
While they all liked this version, Quincy had some issues with the track. Not only was he not a fan of Joe’s influence on the production, with the Linn LM-1 sounding reminiscent to Prince and The Revolution, at the last minute he insisted that the song was ‘too strong’ of a subject at the time for Michael and was unsure where it would fit on any album. So despite the other parties involved being satisfied with the track, this version was shelved into the vault and was later considered for the second album after “Forever”.
Michael would later on revisit the song for the ‘Bad’ sessions in 1986 and finalized it in 1990 during the ‘Dangerous’ sessions. This second version would end up not making any album. Following his passing, American producer Tricky Stewart reworked the track for the ‘Michael’ album in 2010. Once again, the song wasn't included on the release and stayed in the vault. This version featured a sample from a 1991 hip-hop song by Naughty By Nature, “O.P.P.” which ironically also samples The Jackson 5's “ABC”. It was reworked one final time in 2013 by American producers Timbaland and J-Roc for the ‘Xscape’ album, posthumously released in 2014.

[@jimm2434]

WOW! This is brilliant. I love it. You create the most amazing remixes ever! Thank you! These tracks I’ve never heard before. So many tracks would be #1.

[@MysteryEzekude]

Amazing work on arranging and mixing the instrumentals here! This is how I imagine the Xscape remix of this song would've sounded if it was released in the Dangerous era. =)

[@calamari.jaksun8914]

Dangerous era? Definitely not, especially when this mix is inspired by Mountains by Prince, released in 1986. Mid 80's, yeah.
