[Verse 1]
We have been together for such a long time now
Music, music and me
Do not care whether all our songs rhyme
Now music, music and me

[Verse 2]
Only know wherever I go
We are as close as two friends can be
There have been others
But never two lovers
Like music, music and me

[Verse 3]
Grab a song and come along
You can sing your melody
In your mind you will find
A world of sweet harmony

[Verse 4]
Birds of a feather will fly together
Now music, music and me
Music and me

Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson was born on August 29, 1958, in Gary, Indiana. Jackson began his career when he was seven years old as the lead singer of the Jackson 5, breaking into stardom in 1969 after signing into Motown. The Jackson 5’s first four singles all peaked at number one on the Billboard 100, and soon after Michael pursued a solo career.

His breakthrough fifth album, 1979’s Off The Wall produced four top ten hits (including “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough”) and sold 20 million copies, establishing him as a household name. The album was followed with 1982’s Thriller, which became the best selling album of all time, and was the first album to feature seven top 10 singles, including “Billie Jean” and “Beat It.”

In 1985, Michael contributed to the collaboration single “We Are The World”, which remains one of the best-selling singles of all time and raised nearly $65 million for famine relief.
