First considered to be included on the Queen album HOT SPACE (1982), and later on its
follow-up THE WORKS (1984), but both did not happen. In 1983 Michael Jackson then
sung the song and Freddie Mercury played the piano and this version was scheduled for
the album VICTORY (1984) by The Jacksons. As this was also dropped, Freddie went on
recording his own version and released it later. It is not assured if Michael Jackson and
Freddie ever sung the song together, a version that was leaked over the internet simply
merged Michael's and Freddie's voices from two totally different recordings: one being
the version Michael sung in 1983 and supported by Freddie on the piano, and another one
being Freddie's version he recorded later without any participation by Michael. Eventually
this song and also State Of Shock - Demo and Victory were supposed to be given for free
to two of Michael's loyal fans by Queen member Brian May's mother after they contacted
her.

not early enough completed, so it had to be dropped eventually. Many years later
two of the remaining members of Queen (Brian May and Roger Taylor) worked again
on the track, adding some backing vocals and wanted to release it as part of an
upcoming Queen box set. Unfortunately this could not happen due to copyright
issues. Eventually this song and also State Of Shock - Demo and There Must Be
More To Life Than This were supposed to be given for free to two of Michael's
loyal fans by Brian May's mother after they contacted her.

issues Michael Jackson's version of the song could not be used.
He was only allowed to voice his attached character (named
Leon Kompowsky) under the pseudonym "John Jay Smith".
The song was then sung by Southern California group Venice's
singer Christopher "Kipp" Lennon who could imitate Michael
Jackson's voice. He also sung Ben and Billie Jean in this episode.

Originally a canceled track from the album BAD (1987), but re-recorded

Teddy Riley helped Michael changing a verse. Michael completed recording in
April 1992. The song was then promoted by Pepsi as an exclusive track and
500.000 MC's were made available to fans which could receive one if they
collect a certain amount of tokens by buying Pepsi drinks or win a competition.
An instrumental segment of this song could also be heard during the Dangerous
World Tour (accompanied by a laser show) prior to the performance of Will You
Be There. For instance this segment is included on the DVD LIVE IN BUCHAREST:
THE DANGEROUS TOUR (2005) which also forms part of the compilation box set

Outtake of the album HISTORY - PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE - BOOK I (1995)
Developed after Michael was asked to write the theme to Addams Family
Values (1993) which he finally declined. Michael came up with the idea to
create his own spine-chiller. Its initial name was IS IT SCARY and Michael
asked Stephen King to help him writing the story. After the child molestation
accusations had passed it turned out to become a fourty minutes lasting
mini-movie. Originally it only consisted of its title track and some harmonic
melodies, but Michael later wrote Ghosts as the new main theme and also
included the song 2 Bad (1995) from his album HISTORY - PAST, PRESENT
AND FUTURE - BOOK I (1995).

Ice Cube aka O'Shea Jackson
Remix of We Be Clubbin' (1997), the hit-theme of the movie THE PLAYER'S CLUB (1997).
Features Michael Jackson (on chorus), Shaquille O'Neal (spoken intro + verses)
Produced in 1998 in the A&M recording studios in Hollywood, California.
This remix was to be released on a NBA compilation album scheduled for the end of 1997
and was also going to be featured in commercials for NBA's "I Love This Game" campaign.
Michael Jackson was brought on this project by Shaquille O'Neal who has previously
guest-starred on the track "2 Bad" on the album HISTORY - PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE
- BOOK I (1995).
The entire project was finally shelved due to the player iniated strike against the league
that year.
o (Master Mix - 5:02, and Street Mix - 5:14) Ice Cube: "We Be Ballin' "
(Single Test Pressing, Post production Acetate CD, 1998)
The "Master Mix" on this acetate abruptly ends at 4:47 and is silent for the remaining
playtime. However a proceeding beat can be faintly detected in the background for a
few seconds. This curiosity is based on the fact that production on the song was rushed
and not finished for this master.
o (Master Mix - 5:07) Ice Cube: "We Be Clubbin' "
(Single, Promo-CD, 1998)
This Promo-CD features Ice Cube's We Be Clubbin' plus five remixes and
as the 7th track on the disc the complete "Master Mix" of WE BE BALLIN'.
o (Cover Version with Michael's original chorus - _:__) Ricky Romance: "?????"
(Album, CD, 2003)
<<
o Fan-made FAKE version (4:50 /or 5:14 since April 2008)
SPREAD in mid 2005
This FAKE DOES NOT(!) feature Ice Cube at all. It mixed the 2003 remake with
JMC Mob, Raz-B & Co. with one of actually three slightly different choruses by MJ plus
one verse by Shaquille O'Neal.
NOTE: Around APRIL 2008 someone extended this FAKE version once again (having a
playtime of 5:14 now) in some attempt to make it look like it would be the "Street Mix"
which IS NOT TRUE(!) as the real version is 1) professionally mastered and 2) sounds
extremely different.
This new FAKE had a bit better sound quality as it did not have dropouts any longer.

o Master Mix (5:07)
Two leaks of this:
+ (5:02, the song abruptly ends at 4:46 and the remaining playtime is silent)
LEAKED from Test Pressing on June 21st, 2008 (Source: mickyj007 / MJJC)
+ (5:07, the song is complete and has a fade out)
LEAKED from Promo-CD on July 12th, 2008 (Source: Dangerous Incorporated / MJJC)
Michael Jackson sings the chorus three times and each time slightly different. The last
chorus is a longer one with more vocals.
Furthermore the "Master Mix" also includes all vocals by Ice Cube and Shaquille O'Neal,
features professional production and mastering and has superb sound quality.
o Street Mix (5:14)
LEAKED on June 21st, 2008 (Source: mickyj007 / MJJC)
The "Street Mix" gives the song a more edgy and urban feel. It's very different in
production, style when compared to the "Master Mix" and turns the end of the song
into an acappella by Ice Cube. It features all the vocals from the "Master Mix".
o Work In Progress (5:33)
LEAKED on April 30th, 2009 (Source: unknown user / MJJC)
This version was an early work on the remix with Shaq & Mike. It uses much musical
elements from the 1997 original We Be Clubbin' and Mike sings the chorus only two
times here (the 2nd chorus being the longer one). The track contains some vocals
that were later dropped from the final version (some others are missing here) and
ends with an instrumental passage.

Duet with Indian singer A.R. Rahman (Michael singing in English and Rahman in Sanskrit)
The song was originally scheduled to premiere at "Michael Jackson & Friends
- What More Can I Give", the name of two charity concerts which both took
place in June 1999 in Seoul, South Korea, and in Munich, Germany.
It was recorded afterwards and became an outtake of the album INVINCIBLE (2001).

Originally intended for the album INVINCIBLE (2001)
AOL Music and Tonos Entertainment launched a songwriting-contest whose
winner, Ric Kipp, provides the lyrics for the song. But it has never been recorded.
This contest is actually confusing because Michael said in an interview with American
magazine TV Guide in November 1999 that the song is "a millennium song about the
world and the environment, that [he] wrote with Carole Bayer Sager and David Foster".
Now this indicates that the contest is needless because the lyrics existed already.

Jon Secada, Luther Vandross, Mariah Carey, Michael McCary, Mýa,
'N Sync, Nick Carter, Reba McEntire, Ricky Martin, Shakira, Shawn
Stockman, Thalía, Usher, Tom Petty, Ziggy Marley
The song shares its name with two all star charity concerts "Michael
Jackson & Friends - What More Can I Give" which both took place in
June 1999 in Seoul, South Korea, and in Munich, Germany. The song
was scheduled to premiere at those concerts (possibly as a duet
with Luciano Pavarotti), but shelved. The song was then intended
to be released on the album INVINCIBLE (2001), but shelved once
again. Due to the terrorists attack on September 9, 2001, Michael
originated an all star charity campaign to support the victims and
their families by donating all revenues of his planned single. The
recording was completed on October 19, 2001. At Michael Jackson's
concert "United We Stand - What More Can I Give" at Washington,
D.C.'s RFK Stadium on 21th October 2001 the song was ultimately
performed by most of the involved artists. This performance in front
of 46,000 people was aired (in an edited version) on ABC on November
1, 2001. Sony Music canceled a possible single release in late 2001
without giving any reason for this decision but hampering Michael
Jackson's and some of the involved artists' attempt to distribute the
song. Footage of the recording sessions was first shown on German
TV channel ARD as Michael Jackson was presented with the Bambi
Award as Pop Artist Of The Millennium in November 2002 in Berlin,
Germany. It was once again shown at the Radio Music Awards in
October 2003. On October 27th, 2003, an edited version (3:36) was
finally released via the following two (now defunct) websites:
o whatmorecanigive.com
o what more can i give
It could be bought as a pay download (2,- $) for a very short time, starting
on October 27th, 2003, whose revenues were used to support several charity
organisations. A Spanish version titled Todo Para Ti was also recorded
and finished in April 2002.

* Wonderful World Of Candy (2003) (Michael Jackson)
Michael Jackson & Nisha Kataria
Produced by Michael Jackson
Originally intended for a children charity project, but due to
the late 2003 child molestation accusations and the resulting arrest
on the 18th November of that year, the track has been dropped.
Michael Jackson has been working throughout 2003 on a brand-new
studio album (initially intended for release sometime in 2004).
At that time (2003), Dieter Wiesner was Michael Jackson's manager
and he introduced young music artist Nisha Kataria, his newest protégé,
to Michael. Michael Jackson invited Nisha onto his Neverland Valley
Ranch to record with her some tracks in his private recording studio
(contrary to claims by some individuals, Michael Jackson had such a
place at his home). She stayed there for about six weeks and Michael
wrote this song and they both recorded it as a duet. After Michael's
dramatic moral conduct in November 2003, all plans have been put
on hiatus since.
At the present moment (June 2009) it is still unknown if and when
the track will be used. It could possibly be included on Nisha Kataria's
forthcoming debut album, set for release THIS YEAR (2009).
