Yeah he was supposed to be singing "get out of the game " but he misspoke and was singing "Rain". Michael laughing is essentially blowing the take. But he kinda goes along and actually starts singing "Rain". 😂😂😂
At 3:08, that's the part where the soul of Michael comes into you and you HAVE to get up and dance. This was played at a Philly Loves MJ dance party and I damn near got kicked out of the club for going overboard with the spins, kicks, points, etc.
I think it’s like the idea of a scarecrow is ware off birds (depressing lyrics) but on the flip side is dressed up with none threatening clothes (happy tune)
Oh god, people who witnessed MJs prime are some real lucky bastards! I wish I was a little bit older; so I could have witnessed the Michael Mania! Cheers

@@capenmi This is a different recording session than the original from The Wiz. Different feel, different instrumentation (like sound-wise) etc. Listen to that hi-hat pattern and start comparing. This is an different recording of the song!
Not to take from J5, but in this session they broke off into a straight up party. Them boys took Mike back to the juke joint. Wild shit is Mike fit right TF in! 🖤👑
Tell me Michael Jackson couldn't do gospel? He's got that soul in his soul and he's giving you inflections and riffs and runs! This is a whole song that was split in to two songs "you can't win" and "you can't get outta the rain" or were they mixed together? Either way it's FANTASTIC! THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS!!!
This song is soooooooo great, I remember I heard it on a compilation album of his when I was in middle school, when I was obsessed with his music, and from hearing it only on that album that never seems to be on any major music platforms, all these years later I still search for it specifically because it’s so catchy.
Yeah the wiz movie versions of soundtrack "you can't win" by (Michael Joseph jackson), "Ease on down the road" (Diana Ross featuring Michael Joseph jackson), and others. That I remember correctly like WOW and it was very supermega and fantasy and funky disco sounds like punk and pop musical instruments industry was the boom classic all the time. I love you!!!! mj
IRONIC , this is where it Really started 'SUPER STARDOM'... Hello QUINCY JONES, Good bye EARTH, the lyrics PROPHETIC alas. A lesson for us ALL! MY FAVOURITE MICHAEL JACKSON song!!! 🇯🇲🖤🇧🇴🥁🔥🔥🔥🆙🙏🏿
Billie Jean is a cheater. The girl was bad. The girl was dangerous. She only used me for a thriller. I told her to work that body, and don't stop till you get enough. She left me and I cried o baby give me one more chance. And she said she need the money. So I told her to beat it.
see the scarecrow wasnt playing michael ,michael was playing scarecrow. this is michaels version of the song. the wiz version is much more broadway, and its just one line of vocals. in here there are multiple. also in this version hes alot more aggressive with his cadence. I love the contrast in both and how theyre not just the same song.
Read that quincy jones after the wiz re-recorded this and made ease down a single , you can't win b side, listened to both versions the soundtrack and this and of this is better of the two
king lord if the illuminati was so real and so threatening, then how come we “know” about them? And if they’re only in the 1 percent, then how exactly are they threatening to the rest of us?
this dude was mad talented
Not only this dude. All the sessions musicians were talented as hell.
@@Anton-tm2tp true
@@Anton-tm2tp they absolutely killed it
Greatest entertainer of all time
@Anton Naw Michael Jackson was talented as hell
Michael’s vocals on this one was super phenomenal
Yes!
Yup!!
Yes
No surprise. His vocals is incredibly unique
Yes!
*_I really like how the beat goes from soul, to disco/funk. _**_3:08_**_ so damn funky._*
another daft punk fan. I see you're cultured my good sir
PRIMPRIM *_Indeed my good friend_*
That was actually the split between the "A" and "B" side on the record. So well planned out by them and beautifully done.
I think that's greg phillinganes getting dirty on bass keys
ikr, very disco /runs
You can’t possibly hear this song and not feel the urge to party like crazy….
5:49-5:56 His laugh is so angelic🤣❤
Yeah he was supposed to be singing "get out of the game " but he misspoke and was singing "Rain". Michael laughing is essentially blowing the take. But he kinda goes along and actually starts singing "Rain". 😂😂😂

Right on now!
🤣🤣🤣❤
😂😂😅
thats dedication
I've always LOVED that part! It's because the claps and snare, the 2 and 4 are poppier and more pronounced.
why does he sound so jolly for something so depressing
but that laugh ✨✨
right?! lyrics are some of the coldest you'll ever hear but most folks won't get past the happy sound of the track.
@@weedanwine u said it
I think it’s like the idea of a scarecrow is ware off birds (depressing lyrics) but on the flip side is dressed up with none threatening clothes (happy tune)
This is definitely a song that represents what entertainers, actors, etc. go through.
@@weedanwinelike hey ya by outcast
I have a confession to make. I only went to see the Wiz to see Michael Jackson. Whew! That’s off my chest.
LOL THANKS FOR SHARING LOL
😡😡😡😡😡
Same
The end is priceless, Mike's giggles, the harmony of the singers. The adlibs. Amazing. What a delight.
Oh god, people who witnessed MJs prime are some real lucky bastards! I wish I was a little bit older; so I could have witnessed the Michael Mania! Cheers
This version is much better than the one that was on the wiz
I think this version was remasterd for the Off the wall Album, but didnt make it to the album
@@dustyottenheim3364 this music was make to The wiz musical, i guess
Idk! But I think the most Demos are better than the released song or I would say they have more soul! Do you know what I mean!
Loved this version but its rare to find
I like the beginning of the version on The Wiz and the ending of this version 👌🏾
The way I like to think of it is that in The Wiz, Michael is singing as the scarecrow. In this version, Michael is singing just as himself.
This song so vividly reflects my life.
I'm homeless and feel stuck. Definitely can relate
Well then change your ways and you can change. Thats what the song is about. You'll NEVER win if you don't change
@@EnclaviousFiragapray that everything works out for you, you got this
@@no.1spidey-fan182good advice. Change comes from yourself once you do that everything becomes a lot less hard
I like this version even better.
You can't win, you can't break even
And you can't get out of the game
People keep sayin' things are gonna change
But they look just like they're stayin' the same
You can't win, get over your head
And you only have yourself to blame
You can't win Child
(You can't win Child)
You ain't break even
And you can't get out of the game
You can't win, the world keeps movin'
And you're standin' far behind
People keep sayin', things'll get better
(Just to ease your state of mind)
(So you lean back, and you smoke that smoke)
(And you drink your glass of wine)
So you can't win, Child, you can't break even
And you can't get out of the game
You can't win, you can't win no way
If your story stays the same, no, no
(You ain't winnin')
(But it's nice to see you)
(I'm awfully glad you came)
(Better cool it 'cause it ain't about losing')
Then the world has got no shame
You can't win, Child
You can't break even
You can't get out of the game
You can't win, you can't break even
Ain't the way it's supposed to be, no, no
(You'll be spendin')
(Your little bit of money)
While someone else rides for free, ooh
(Learn your lesson)
(Refuel your mind)
(Before some turkey blows out your flame)
You can't win, Child, no
You can't win
You can't win, Child, no
You can't win
You can't win, Child, no
You can't win
You can't win, Child, no
You can't win
You can't win, Child, you can't break even
And you can't get out of the game
You can't get out of the game
You can't get out of the game, no, no

This is Quincy and Michael's demo right after the wiz. This song became "off the wall".
the production in this piece....the musical workshop....Q's best at Westlake Studios baby....cant get better
I love this version much better than the original .Thank you for shareing it with the rest of the world
Actually, this was the original. Quincy softened the sound and minimized the bass to make it more pop sounding for the soundtrack release.
@@capenmi its not, the vocals here are rerecorded. on the original the WiZ version MJ sounds younger and sings more soulful
@@erenyeeagah204 wrong
@@capenmi This is a different recording session than the original from The Wiz. Different feel, different instrumentation (like sound-wise) etc. Listen to that hi-hat pattern and start comparing. This is an different recording of the song!
@@capenmi wym wrong?? literally the first line is already sung diffrently in this version
This song makes me wanna dance.
Why they always leave the best songs off the original soundtrack. This is amazing 😩❤️
Michael Jackson était au top musicalement à l'époque de Off The Wall, Thriller et Bad !!! ❤ ❤ ❤
One of the best MJ songs
After Who's Loving you, Ben, Music and Me
we can tell they had so much fun recording this song
Yep
Definitely one of his best vocals. He was locked in.
It’s just so funky and infectious!
Not to take from J5, but in this session they broke off into a straight up party. Them boys took Mike back to the juke joint. Wild shit is Mike fit right TF in! 🖤👑

"Will You Be There" is heavily gospel influenced, I would say.
Also man in the mirror
As well as Keep the Faith
Not it’s one song it wasn’t mixed in
Well he was brought up in the church
Thank you michael for all the Joy you brought us threw your music!!!

The the second part of the song...its insane!! Dance Yall! Such a Groove!! Sing Mike!
the wiz song of michael really reminds me of another version of *things i do for you* with his brothers
it DOES!! I knew it sounded "familiar"!
This song is soooooooo great, I remember I heard it on a compilation album of his when I was in middle school, when I was obsessed with his music, and from hearing it only on that album that never seems to be on any major music platforms, all these years later I still search for it specifically because it’s so catchy.
This is my jam
Michael makes a good Scarescrow in the movie The Wiz😍😀👍
This version is very good!! OMG!! I will have to download!!!!! Thank you so much for sharing it! ❤️❤️
That bass player tho! Geesh
Love it 🎵🎵🎹😁🎻📻🎸🎧

Hello QUINCY JONES, Good bye EARTH, the lyrics PROPHETIC alas.
A lesson for us ALL!
MY FAVOURITE MICHAEL JACKSON song!!!
🇯🇲🖤🇧🇴🥁🔥🔥🔥🆙🙏🏿
I thought that "Get out of the Rain" and "You Cant Win" were different songs! But I guess they sound so similar anyway so it's the same thing.
No! Can't get outta the rain is "You can't win part 2"
The only version of this song I ever heard was in “The Wiz.” This one IS much better.
that chorus sounds like another later thriller demo, can´t remember it´s name right now
Can’t get out of the rain
Great song!
You can't win; you can't break even; but you gotta keep on playin ....
Billie Jean is a cheater. The girl was bad. The girl was dangerous. She only used me for a thriller. I told her to work that body, and don't stop till you get enough. She left me and I cried o baby give me one more chance. And she said she need the money. So I told her to beat it.
That was smooth

You cant win and cant get outta the rain 1978
can't get out of the rain was 1982, he recorded it during the thriller recording sessions.
@@b1g_b4d_j0hn6 but this is where the song came from. It was one half of a full song

Can you say the Wiz! Rewind button hated my guts 🤷🏾♀️
Much better than the one in the movie.
MJ
"Can't get out of the game"
Exactly, "Can't get out of the rain" is from thriller era, It's a different version that came out now on the "thriller 40"
Very Cool
I loveeeeeeee is it version
Crazy that for thriller 40 they released half of the song
No, in fact that version for thriller 40 is the updated version of the era
@sven nelson i love it.
Read that quincy jones after the wiz re-recorded this and made ease down a single , you can't win b side, listened to both versions the soundtrack and this and of this is better of the two
This makes me.want to ger up and dance.
I didn't know that 'Can't Get Outta The Rain' was from the 'Off The Wall' sessions.
Yeah I heard it at the 3:12 minute Mark but the lyric was changed to “Can’t get outta the game”
@L.E.D. thanks a lot !
The Rhodes used is the same on the thriller sessions, with a big chorus effect.
THIS should have been on Thriller 40 instead of THAT song
MJ FOREVER
MJ💞💖💕😘👑
Yeah it is from the wiz movie back in 1978.
Omg i love it
You can't win demo 1981.
HE says, "Out of the GAME"😮😅 not rain 😔???🪵👍🏿♂️🤨💙💜‼️ Just saying 🤔 GAME 😂🎯
3:00
Shamone!
The second part is actually an unreleased sont named "Can't Get Out Of The Rain"
But this is part of the you can’t win song. So it was only named after they released the second half
This is a demo that became Off the Wall.
Wow Michael Jackson talking about the Illuminati in this song.You can't get out of the Game.
