Burn This Disco Out

 A very high-tempo Funktastic Disco groove that received little attention in 1979. From Michael Jackson's first adult solo-Off The Wall.
There was Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and then there was Michael Jackson!

Time Waits For No One

 Released as a single only in the U.K. to help promote the album Triumph-Released by The Jacksons in October of 1980. "Time Waits For No One" starts off on a lovely Ballad and then climaxes on a hefty high-tempo harmony! The ending is like icing on the cake.



Lyrics


Lonely
In my darkened room
Sad and weary
Persevering for love
Sad and weary
Persevering

And I hope that she is thinking
To come back to me
Is it possible she’s thinking of me at all
Have I gone too far

If only I had shown her love
She’d be with me
Deep inside me
My love, my love
She’d be with me
Deep inside me

And I hope that she is thinking
To come back to me
And I pray that faith can bear
This suffering inside
’Til she arrives

And I hope that she is thinking
To come back to me
And I’m scared there’s someone
Sleeping by her side
I can’t hide all the pain deep inside
Is this love

Time waits for no one
Time waits for no one
Time waits for no one
Time waits for no one
Time waits for no one
Time waits for no one
(No one)
Time waits for no one
Time waits for no one

Give It Up

 A duet between Randy and Michael Jackson from the album Triumph. Michael predominantly sings in his falsetto octaves.



Lyrics


I don’t know what you do to me
But this feeling is here to be
Hope it’s love
And one day we’ll see the moon
Take my hand and we’ll fly away
A love so new till the dying day
A life so true all you have to say is you will

You’ve got to believe in something
You’ve got to believe in
Give it up
Give it up
My love is true now
Say me and you now
Give it up
Give it up

Just say the word
And I’m screaming out your name
So make it true
To make it us
Just give me half a chance
I need your love
Hope it’s me you’re thinking of
A love to give
I can’t live
Just give me half a chance

I don’t know what you do to me
But this feeling is here to be
Just say that you’ll be giving me your love

All you got to do is
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up

You’ve got to believe in something
You’ve got to believe me
Give it up
Give it up
My love is true now
Say me and you now
Give it up
Give it up

Just say the word
And I’m screaming out your name
So make it true
To make it us
Just give me half a chance
I need your love
Hope it’s me you’re thinking of
A love to give
I can’t live
Just give me half a chance

I don’t know what you do to me
But this feeling is here to be
Just say that you’ll be giving me your love

All you got to do is
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up
Give up your love
All night and day
Love me this time, babe
Don’t let this end
