Easily his greatest song. Imagine the sheer manpower and effort that went into this production. Kudos of course to Quincy Jones who was at the very top of his game in 1979 and knew how to coax this level of performance from Jackson and the musicians. This is timeless music. 500 years from now, someone will open this song on a little blip of an electronic file and be totally blown away.
Hearing the arrangement broken down is CRAZY. And the fact that Michael's home demo of this contained all of the bones and energy of the final mix is just genius.
Please stop. Giving all this credit to MJ implies that Quincy Jones was just paid to sit in the studio and roll his boogers. MJ sang and danced and he wrote some songs. Quincy arranged sheet music for a big band orchestra since before MJ was born. MJ was clearly the student in the room.
@@hirokomlm131 You are missing the contexts and nuances in my comment, because I clearly am giving Quincy Jones and every musician and sound engineer involved in this record MASSIVE props. However, perhaps you've never heard the 25th anniversary edition of "Off the Wall" (maybe it was the 20th-anniversary of "Thriller; I don't remember anymore) that Epic/CBS issued. If you had, you would have heard the home demo recordings Michael did of this song and "Working Day and Night." On these home demos, you will hear a rhythm track that approximates the album version's drum track, a raw rendition of the bassline, and the overall driving energy that coalesced into the final record. I said "THE BONES." MICHAEL made that. Quincy fleshed it all out. Michael was the student, but he was clearly the head of the class.
@hirokomlm131 we got all the people that helped with outfits, tours, sets, singers crew, but Michael dances and provides the voice and works his butt off.
I've always loved the intricacies of how each part has it's space and still allows certain elements to shine through. I'm an absolute sucker for all of the horn sections in these MJ records...It's just too fire mate. 🔥
Additionally, it's important to note that on all Michael Jackson albums, he wrote the biggest hits on Off The Wall, Thriller, and Bad, contributing to most of the other songs. Whenever Michael Jackson is mentioned, there's often a reference to Rod Temperton, who wrote three songs on both Off the Wall and Thriller. However, it's worth reiterating that MJ penned the biggest hits on both albums. Rod Temperton was a master... but this song""DON'T STOP 'TIL YOU GET ENOUGH"" was a MJ masterpiece and his biggest hit on that 'Off the Wall' album.
Thank you! It's so frustrating when people give too much credit to quincy Jones or rod. MJ always wrote, produced and composed his biggest hits. But people don't want to give him any credit and prefer to attribute all praise to quincy
@@for-house-starkagreed.. they were all brilliant but Michael played a huge part in all his work. It gets annoying that just because people don’t like him or his music they take away his talent and discredit him in every way.🙄
He certainly did. A true writing force as well as performing force. The home demo of this track is incredible. The song and most of the arrangement was there already. Quincy didn’t have to do very much at all!
The syncopation in this song is wildddddd! Big respect to Quincy Jones for this arrangement but Greg Phillinganes is a freaking genius! His grove is all over this track.
I love the way the instruments are layered. It stacks and stacks. Then Michael uses his breaths to seal spaces in-between the measures for timing. I love everything about this song and the violins sounds like The Young and the Restless or one of those soap operas. I miss MJ. Been a fan since '79❤❤
I love these so much! The work process and creative mind of Michael (MJ doesn’t get enough credit imo) and Quincy together is absolute magic!! Keep it up 😄
3:30 that chord change always gives me straight goosebumps...it's so heroic sounding. It doesn't matter if you're into hard rock or Hip Hop, this is one of those tracks that if it doesn't move you...we can't be friends.
Thanks again Chris! This is my favourite of MJ's solo songs because it is so melodically rich, yet so lyrically free. The big, flourishing note you describe as 'powerful...brash and abandoned' - for the first time the word Gospel came to mind when hearing it soloed. I always thought this song was maybe the ultimate expression of freedom and pure joy, and I think that one note is the climactic point of the song. But now I hear Michael giving praise and thanks for the gift, as he saw it, of being chosen as the instrument through which beautiful music can flow, become alive and everlasting. Thank you once again for revealing this greater depth to us.
The "conversational background vocals" on Greg Philliganes' break. That Motown experience Michael got. Learned that stuff right from Marvin Gaye! Just a background conversation can be musical & rhythmic just the same. I know Berry Gordy was kicking himself daily for letting the Jackson 5 leave Motown. Especially after Off The Wall, say less about Thriller.
As I’ve commented before, I love MJ’s albums, and Thriller flipped the switch on amazing music. But there is something about that raw, disco vibe and MJ’s smooth vocals that make Off The Wall my favorite
That face, while listening to string flurries... that's the face of genuine curiosity... damn, I can't recall last time I saw an adult so taken by something! Good for you Chris! 👍
@chrisliepe I'm so glad u got this! I was always wanting to hear (from 16:00 on) what he was doing when they were fading him out and letting the rhythm section play (my favorite part of the song btw) on the final result. I just wanted to hear what he was doing cuz i know he was feeling it and freestyling at that point!
Always loved this song. When this song came on at the skating rink (back when it was cool to hang out), folks got up and went on the floor. It was always a magical song, especially for shuffling.
I love the way Chris goes through the original tracks and points out details that we don't hear in the final version, but that we feel with our body and soul. Good job Chris 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
MJ as a vocalist is _way too_ underrated ... for me personally, being a fan for almost 40 years now (!) he was always one of the greatest vocalists .. the things he could do with his voice in each song I still need to discover anyone else being able to do same things --- thats why almost every MJ song sounds different ...
Chris, watching your channel makes me see Michael's singing in a whole new light. The untrained ear would never think of all the nuance you can put into a head voice or falsetto. We just think he's singing the notes straightforward. But you show that it's actually deeper than that. You really break down how talented & innovative a vocalist Michael truly is. I have grown a new appreciation for Michael's singing far beyond what was already there through you, Chris. Everytime I watch a video on this channel I learn something. So thank you for that. I found your channel through Jack Black's singing of Peaches from the Super Mario Bros. Movie. Messed around and found a gem in this TH-cam land. That's why I subscribed long ago. You do good work, man.
Agreed! I see so many people trying to claim he wasn’t a vocalist, but I think that’s crazy. Watching these videos truly brings his talent to life. It’s much appreciated.
@@N0EL-7007 His dancing is so powerful it makes people overlook his singing. But his singing is why he was added to the Jackson 5 in the first place. People forget. This is the guy who replaced Smokey Robinson on his own song that he wrote! "Who's Lovin' You". Things got flipped somewhere along the way as his career progressed. He was once seen as an amazing singer who is also an amazing dancer. Now it's like he is seen as an amazing dancer who is also an amazing singer.

@@johnlucas1543Yes I agree. I’ve even seen people say he wasn’t that great of a dancer just because he took inspiration. At this point people are just becoming delusional…😅 I believe he earned the title of king and should be remembered for that.
Easily my favorite MJ song. The arrangement and production is absolutely bonkers. Quincy really didn't stop until he got enough. There are so many instruments, voices and percussion and it still doesn't sound busy. It is light and airy and with so much groove. Quincy Jones was a genius.
i did a mix on this and its such ear candy from ear to ear man its just a wonderful sound to hear its absolutely amazing to be a mixer to hear all these sounds that you don't hear on the radio and etc
Hearing the isolated vocals, it finally clicked what bridging with mixed voice is about. The 1) brassiness along with 2) forward placement and 3) solid support lets you push up and up until you hit a natural break that requires whistle. It's a continuous spectrum where you have to push into the right resonance. The sound automatically builds out of that and it's not what is taught in chorus. Forget "classical" voice that's too rounded and soft. Intentionally pushing into controlled breakup opens up a whole world of sounds.
This video is great. i would like to say.. in response to what you discuss at 7:03 .. i've seen other videos and interviews with the studio engineers, where they say that Michael instructed them to leave in those rhythmic vocal grunts and things he did, that others might consider dirt and remove. Even his foot stomps.. Imagine them removing the grunts and vocal things from James Brown recordings.. it's added spices (the secret sauce). Michael knew sonically what should be there. He did it INTENTIONALLY it was not a "mistake".. My favorite parts of this song that give me an eargasm every time i hear it, and propels me to do crazy things when dancing.. is the rhythm they played out on Soda Bottles. Michael had Janet & Randy playing on soda bottles. it's on Michael's original multi-track home recordings. you can hear it the most on the outro
Yes!! Finally another one of MJ’s brilliant songs and vocal executions analyzed! Thank you Chris❤ you’re detailed and meticulously attentive, as always! Can’t wait for a new one!🎉
When I was a teenager, my brother bought the Off the Wall CD, I didn't even see the cover, I just heard Michael's voice (I didn't even know him), and I immediately became a fan, I listened to the CD every day before going to school. :)
Good Lord Chris. I know ur tryin to educate us, but u killed me at 9:09-9:21! I’m sry, but just after hearin the acapella for In the Closet, it sounds so dirty outta context. In the end, I know ur tryin to help us figure out our voices and ur sharing these multitrack breakdowns for us Moonwalkers. Thank for uploading this video Chris! I’ve been waitin for this one for a long minute. 🙏💙
You know as you solo those stems 🔊 🎷°🎺°🎻°🥁°🎹°🎸° it makes me realize how smart Michael was to draw on Quincy Jones' decades of orchestration 🎼 experience to give his debut such a Big Sound 😎
If Don’ Stop ‘til You Get Enough song is this fascinating then see Off The Wall song; I think you will be in for a treat! Thank you for sharing this enlightening clip about His Majesty Michael's masterpiece with us, buddy! 🎩
Chris!!! I love your videos bro!! and the knowledge you're putting out there with these isolated tracks. please big homie CAN YOU PLEAAAASE do the breakdown of Remember The Time by Micheal Jackson. PLEEEEEEAAAASE!!!
So many anecdotes about this song! Quincy Jones said that MJ wanted to remove the high strings because he said it was messing his groove! The identity of the whole song 😭 Guess Quincy had the last word :) Thank you for this precious video Chris! 🙌🏻
Nirvana is my favorite band of all time, and I will never forget the moment they knocked The King of Pop off the top of the charts. But I also loved Michael Jackson as a kid, I have to admit.
Thanks for the inside, so valuable. Also what you are saying 06:45-07:30 is so important to know. The little "mistakes" are part of the track and the vibe and they would be cut out nowadays...maybe some will understand that and use this "technique" for groovy or dusty music again.
I love this track first one I ever heard, (otw) then I got all the others that came before and after! I spent hours listening on repeat until I worked out his speech/sing pattern- made it easier to work out lyrics. Thanks Chris fabulous as always ❤
My face hurts....from smiling like weirdo from listing to these tracks lol I would be the person who would totally make like a 40 minute extended version of this song utilizing all these tracks lol
I love what you do. And I will definitely be signing up for your course cause I need help even though "I sing professionally". I perform every week. Get tons of compliments on my singing but I honestly think it's trash. I also hope that you teach how to survive extreme energy gigs that are 4 hours long... and then... recovery.

if you look at the lyrics while the song plays it starts to become clear what he’s saying
....you mean...what he is singing 😅😅

This is raw talent that cannot be explained. No technique, no style, just pure natural talent. This is the Blueprint.

You're here!
Yoooo the legend himself
yoooo detail wsp
Don’t make provocative titles about michael on your videos then if u like him so much
MJ was a musical genius. Never be another one again. God was just bragging when he made Michael

The Greatest Entertainer of all time for the past milllions of years. Regardless of genre, language, region or anything.
We need music to be arranged like this now a days

Greg Phillinganes deserves a LOT of credit for the groove of this track.
Just brilliant stuff. These studio original recordings are themselves tutorials to arrangement and composing. Add that it's Michael, just love em.
Michael was a genius and Incredible is not enough to describe this song

He certainly did. A true writing force as well as performing force. The home demo of this track is incredible. The song and most of the arrangement was there already. Quincy didn’t have to do very much at all!
Please never stop posting these
One of my favorite MJ songs that is an absolute banger
Mj ain't just no freaking 'KOP' or even 'greatest entertainer'... he's the master of SOUND. He's to singing what Bruce Lee was to martial arts.
This Chanel is so good.
Who needs any musical instruments when your voice is like that
The syncopation in this song is wildddddd! Big respect to Quincy Jones for this arrangement but Greg Phillinganes is a freaking genius! His grove is all over this track.
Love it 😊 can't get enough of these Michael Jackson multi tracks... 🎉
I see what you did there 😂
I believe this was MJ’s only single with him using his falsetto as the lead vocal.
I love the way the instruments are layered. It stacks and stacks. Then Michael uses his breaths to seal spaces in-between the measures for timing. I love everything about this song and the violins sounds like The Young and the Restless or one of those soap operas. I miss MJ. Been a fan since '79❤❤
Love all the Michael Jackson videos you do. This is another great on you have unpacked. Thank you for these.
Ridiculously funky track. Soo good. 🔥
I love these so much! The work process and creative mind of Michael (MJ doesn’t get enough credit imo) and Quincy together is absolute magic!!
Keep it up 😄
Even now, this is the best mj track. Love dancing to it.👏😀👍💃

“It starts with EXPRESSION -
The technique comes later”
I’ve been waiting for this for decades. Thank you so much for this. Those strings are magical. Quincy is the man!
I love this goddamn song, the most dancing song of all times
Great dynamics in those endings in mIchael's voice in this one, just like the horn sections.
it's always comforting for me as a nonnative speaker of english to hear that even native speakers can't make out the words just from listening

as in Star Wars, wow❤😂🎉
I love hearing these studio tracks, they're raw, and rough, and thrilling, and building, and so real and authentic!!
Startin' the day off *right*! Thanks, Chris! 🔥🔥🔥
I love to hear MJ sing! Especially these isolated tracks--he keeps rhythm with his whole body! Those extra breaths and grunts are so awesome!

I absolutely agree MJ for me has always had one of the greatest voices in the industry

"underrated" is the most overused/misused term on TH-cam. Jackson is most definitely not an underrated vocalist in any shape or form

Get tons of compliments on my singing but I honestly think it's trash. I also hope that you teach how to survive extreme energy gigs that are 4 hours long... and then... recovery.
‘Cause your love is alright, alright, ooh’ was a nice part that was missed in third verse but Great video Chris
