Michael Jackson's initial taste of chart success, "I Want You Back" became the first of four consecutive #1 hits for The Billboard Top 100! The single featured a cover of The Miracles-"Who's Lovin' You". Formerly, this track was considered for "Gladys Night And The Pips" and Diana Ross as "I Want to be free".
This high-tempo Funky antique unveils an energetic Michael shrouded with boyhood crushes over a girl. Even though he exhibited a lot of passion and vigor, no one knew what would become of this child-star by the time he reached adulthood. Thriller surprised even the most avid among his fans!

Lyrics
Uh-huh huh huh huh
Let me tell ya now
Uh-huh
VERSE 1:
When I had you to myself
I didn't want you around
Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd
But someone picked you from the bunch
one glance was all it took
Now it's much too late for me to take a second look
CHORUS:
Oh baby give me one more chance
(show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me
(back in your heart)
Oh darlin' I was blind to let you go
(let you go baby)
But now since I see you in his arms
(I want you back)
Yes I do now
(I want you back)
Ooh ooh baby
(I want you back)
Ya ya ya ya
(I want you back)
Na na na na
VERSE 2:
Tryin' to live without your love
Is one long sleepless night
Let me show you girl
That I know wrong from right
Every street you walk on
I leave tearstains on the ground
Following the girl
I didn't even want around
Let me tell you now
CHORUS:
Oh baby all I need is one more chance
(show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me
(back to your heart)
Oh darlin' I was blind to let you go
(let you go baby)
But now since I see you in his arms
Uh-huh
A buh buh buh buh (2 times)
All I want
A buh buh buh buh
All I need
A buh buh buh buh
All I want
A buh buh buh buh
All I need
Jermaine:
Oh just one more chance
to show you that I love you
baby! (6 times)
(I want you back)
Jackie:
Forget what happened then
(I want you back)
Jermaine:
Let me live again
Oh baby I was blind to let you go
But now since I see you in his arms
(I want you back)
Jackie:
Spare me of this cause
Jermaine:
Gimme back what I lost
Oh baby I need one more chance ha
I tell ya that I love you
