Song |
"Loving You" is a song by American recording artist Michael Jackson. Originally recorded during the Bad sessions in 1985-1987. Matt Forger, one of Jackson's trusted engineers stated that, “It was a good song, just not in serious consideration for the BAD album. One of many that were recorded and put away.”[2] A reworked version of the song was included in Jackson's posthumous album Xscape.
Release
The song made its debut on May 6, 2014 on Sony Entertainment Network and was available streaming for Sony Unlimited members.[3]“Loving You” is a playful summer ballad about Michael having a nice stay-at-home retreat from the outside world with his lover. The Re-tooled, produced by Timbaland, is very reminiscent of the Motown era, with a soulful melody and a pleasant bass line.[4]
The song will be released as a Promotional single[5] to further promote the album. BBC Radio 2 had placed the song on the 'A - List' Category.
