This is one of my favorite songs from Michael`s early solo years

Listening to it right now!

which album was this on? music and me?

Yep

Them first four albums need a remastering.

Doubt it'll happen, tho'.

I know...

He made A LOT of good music without his brothers before "off the wall", i think his voice had a different quality on his earlier stuff, which i like.

i know, i think his first three solo albums are really great and should be thought of more highly. although im not sure if, like the j5, most of the songs are covers or not, can anyone tell me if most of the songs on his solo albums are original or not?

hellomoto said:

I think many of them are covers, yes, but most of the hits are his own, like "Ben" and "Got to be there"

This song is so beautiful. I feel like Im in my mothers womb when I hear it. Its so warm and sentimental. Its easily one of my top 5 Michael Jackson songs EVER.

I know what you mean


With a child's heart
Go face the worries of the day
With a child's heart
Turn each problem into play
No need to worry no need to fear
Just being alive makes it all so very clear

With a child's heart
Nothing can ever get you down
With a child's heart
You've got no reason to frown
Love is as welcome
As a sunny sunny day
No grown-up thoughts
To lead our hearts astray

Take life easy, so easy nice and easy
Like a child so gay and so carefree
The whole world smiles with you
As you go your merry way
Oh with a child's heart
Nothing's gonna get me down

Anyone like Stevie's version?

Just reading the those lyrics make me teary eyed. Im guess Im just an emotional guy.

It's OK. Different, but I don't like it as much.

I love this song as well. So simple, so pure, so beautiful.

Was that him on Buffy then?

I love this song. First heard it on The Legend Continues special.

LMAO!

Somebody got it!

The Supremes did a good job with the song too

Man I love Stevie Wonder and the Supremes but fuck all that, little MJ's version owns.

Its my favorite little Michael song.
