Restored, colorized and altogether complete video of Michael Jackson recording Donna Summers's song State of Independence in 1982. You can notice that he had his Off the Wall / Triumph look still here, phasing into his well-known Thriller look that we all know today.

Getting to gather all these brilliant artists under one roof was a tour de force, it showed the respect and admiration they had for Donna and Quincy! The footage itself is priceless!!
An Empowering Song. Legends as Backing vocals!!! Rest in Peace Donna Summer ❤
I never knew how many famous artists were used to do the backing vocals. Awesome ❤️ 😎 👍
Quincy Jones session. All the big guns come when Q calls
This was such a find! Thank you for posting. Amazing to see all those stars together. I'm filled with nostalgia.
I've always loved this song but I had NO idea of the incredibly famous line-up that sang the backing vocals on it... just amazing!
Imagine having legends singing background on your song.
It is to date classed as the Greatest Background Vocals for a Solo Artiste in History. The Measure of how great Donna Summer was and is 💃🏽🪄💫🔥🙌🏾💎💎💎👑👑👑❤️🙏🏾
WHAT?!?! - OMG! The chorus is all star?!
Thrilled to see this footage. Thank you. Great gathering of talent for this awesome song. Sorry it didn't go to the top of the charts. DIANA ROSS was NOT a part of this All-Star Chorus. Ross was not present, and she does not appear on the album credits.
What a lovely atmosphere 😍And what a lineup!!!!😀
I loved this song when it came out and I was in high school. I had no idea of the production. I am totally amazed. All these egends singing background ❤
Love my michael jackson ❤️
Never understood why Donna wasn’t there for this session!
She was pregnant at the time, could'nt work so hard.
Quincy Jones said that the intro melody of the bass of SOI was used for the main bass riff in "Billie Jean", but obviously slowed down.
I listened, I don't hear it.
@@EastNewYorkKid - the note progression is the same. They are played at a much faster rate on SOI. This video gives an idea....

Thanks for sharing
Jon Anderson,,,, honorable mention HE WROTE IT….
Jon and Vangelis. Vangelis almost joined Yes after Rick Wakeman left the 1st time
I absolutely love this song , deeply spiritual
Recently found out about all the backing giants..EPIC! Thank you!
Fantastic
And Michael Jackson was doing his thing. He was moving his body. He wished it was his song and session, so he could do whatever he liked. 😀😂😂😂

"Donna Summer's song?" Her version is a cover of the original song, written by Jon Anderson and Vangelis.
Yes, they wrote it, which they have credit for, and they released it as a single in 1981. All of that is true.
Is it Michael Jackson's song? Because his name is the first thing in the title. No, he just sang with other great singers in a choir on this song, which was a brilliant idea. But, I'm okay with that because someone is focusing on what Michael did, and the footage after the recording is pretty interesting to see these people greet one another and sing like the pros that they all are.
But, do you honestly believe that no song should ever be referenced with an artist's name unless that artist wrote it and recorded and released it first?
So, I can't say Diana Ross' song Ain't No Mountain High Enough?
Or, Donna Summer's song Mac Arthur Park?
Then, you can't ever say, Olivia Newton-John's song because she didn't write any of her songs, and the same goes for Whitney Houston. The only song one could say is Barbra Streisand's song is the only one she wrote - Evergreen.
Usually, it is only meant to refer to that particular artists' version/recording of the song.
I don't see what the big deal is. On Donna Summer's Quincy Jones produced version, Jon Anderson and Vangelis are credited with writing the song. Donna was always careful to ensure everyone got credit for their work. And, it is likely that Quincy Jones asked permission from Anderson/Vangelis to record the song with Donna Summer.
@@SWSimpsonThe title of this video is disimformative. The lead vocal of this song is sung by Donna Summer and Michael Jackson among other singers backing vocals.
Relax
No really
You need to relax
its her song. if you mention this song, people will say donna summer.
@@orangewarm1Maybe people in your social bubble would say whatever you want to hear.
The song was written by Jon Anderson and Vangelis. It is a fact and you cannot do anything about it...
Well yeah, one thing you can do about it. You can throw yourself on the ground kick your legs and wave your hands.
Nice pictures, thank you
Very cool.
This song! This ensemble! The message! Donna Summer! This song should have been huge, but Geffen, who forced the coupling of Summer and Jones, released a horribly mixed single and obviously a 0 budget for a video and the song went nowhere in America. Such a tragedy. Thank you Quincy Jones for assembling this all star choir and of course Michael. You and Donna are missed greatly.
not at all. the song exists in the universe. and its perfect.
I prefer the choir backing they released better than this though
Tout les grands de notre musique ❤😢
Powerful artist backing vocals 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Solo la reina del Disco pudo darse el lujo de tener a grandes cantantes en el coro de sus canciones 🥰👍
Let it Be !!
The Great Late Donna Summer and her heavy weight chorus, the most popular vocalist back in the day, backing up The Queen !!!
I wish Donna Summer had been there.
At this time, she was very pregnant with her daughter Amanda.
Never knew about the all star backing vocals. Always loved the song. I do wonder why though 🤔. Why all stars and why most of us didn’t even know that
Keep it in the closet 🤫
Look there is myGrandfather Bruce Swedien 👍🏻📿👍🏻
Did I miss Diana Ross somewhere? Didn't see her in the video nor was she part of the backing choir per the album notes.
According to the credits she wasn't part of the recording sessions.
She wasn’t part of the SOI “All stars chorus”…. But she was part of “We are the world” in 85 (while Donna wasn’t part of it) !
@@patrickjoly7830 Okay, yes I know that and thank you. But at one point her name was referenced associated to this song/video and many have pointed out my same commentary how she was not at all involved.
Donna Summer is on record as saying that she didn’t want to record this song because she thought that it was too much of an out there arty kind of song that wouldn’t suit her. But Quincy Jones, having seen how the original was so successful for Jon Anderson and Vangelis, knew that it was perfect for her style of delivery and her voice. So, with very little modification (a few minor tweaks here and there), she recorded it magnificently!
Diana Ross was not in this song at all. And is Christopher Cross !!
Pls watch the video. Cross is there
Maravilhoso!
Actually it should be Donna Summers - State of Independence, but whatever . . . still a cool video. Check out Jon Anderson's version. It's a different approach, but really good, as well.
Leave it alone..Its real
Listen to original & best version by Jon & Vangelis❤
Just like we are the world
This was the precursor to that, and the idea came from this.
the same but different
❤
So, Donna Summer wasn't invited to be a part of this chorus?
Donna usually sang in the chorus of most if not all of her songs up until the Quincy Jones 1982 album.
Heey...... This looks just like they kept going after we are the world or was it before?
Please tell me what the name of the Michael Jackson song in the intro is. Thanks----
Earth Song
Wow, just found out that Michael totally ripped the legendary Billie Jean baseline from the beginning of this song. Yikes
Interpolation
I would t call it that. They all worked together. It was like a family
@@homerjs225 yeah but he claimed in an interview that the famouse, “innovative” baseline just came to him out of the ether.
Wasted opportunity.
Donna was amazing by herself?
I don’t get the whole chorus with so many superstars only to be miss promoted???
not at all. the song exists in the universe. and its perfect.
