[edit] Song background
Jackson had previously recorded two tracks with the same title prior to 2003. The first was "One More Chance" with The Jackson 5 on the ABC album and the second with The Jacksons on Victory album. The Victory album's "One More Chance" was written and performed (lead vocals) by younger brother Randy Jackson. Janet Jackson also covered the Victory album song on her single for "If", as a B-side.
"One More Chance" was the last original single released during Jackson's lifetime. The song was later included on the Australia, France, Sweden and Indonesia editions of King of Pop and the Japanese Limited edition of The Ultimate Collection box set.
[edit] Music video
Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch was raided by the Santa Barbara Sheriffs Department, investigating child molestation allegations made against the singer, which resulted in the 2005 criminal trial and subsequent acquittal of Jackson on all charges. Jackson had been shooting the video late into the night of November 17, 2003, but following the raid, production was stopped. The single was instead promoted using a montage video of highlights from Jackson's career to date.[2][3][4]
On October 13, 2010, the official website of Michael Jackson announced that the music video will be released in a deluxe DVD box set Michael Jackson's Vision on November 22, 2010. [5]. A rough 2 minute cut of the video leaked online on November 15, 2010. On November 19, 2010, the full length of the video premiered on Jackson's official website. As with the song being the last brand new single released during his lifetime, the music video is also Jackson's last music video, and the first with new footage to be released posthumously. The video features Jackson performing in the audiences' place as they stand on stage in a nightclub. Closeups of Jackson were never filmed due to the raid, so most of the shots are of Jackson's face turned towards the audience, adding to the effect of Jackson performing in the audience's seat.
