Did MJ Find Love In The Dark (continued)

About that line that is bolded. I'm still not quite understanding what it's saying. What does "it" mean? I know you will be more than willing to explain.

If this woman ever existed she knows what "but you said you're gonna leave it for yourself" means.imo:) Or Michael would tell us what was in his mind.

Also, it could be: "gonna leave it to yourself" lol

I'm finding it hard to understand only because I don't think I'm hearing the lyrics correctly and reading other peoples interpretation of it makes me think other things than what I originally thought it meant. :worried: dang it! :lol:


Im just finding it hard 2 understand the lyrics full stop!
Its kinda like what the **** is he saying???? :blink:
 
:
I think we are having so much trouble because we are not listening to a finished song, but rather a demo (at last what comes to MJ's vocals). I'm pretty sure of it. Like if you listen to the WBSS demo...part of the lyrics are the way we know them...part of them make no sense...so I think MJ was just kind of improvising and singing whatever came to his mind that moment to get the feel of the song, to get the melody down and to come up with the lyrics. So I think that's the case with TII too. And then after MJ died, they found the demo...and maybe added the orchestra or something to it, or maybe the music already was there....could be. Or could be MJ made the song that way, but then wasn't happy with it and put it in his vault. I mean, remember how different the Dangerous demo sounds, and the lyrics are a bit different too from the album version. And the lyrics to In The Closet are different on the demo. So I think that's why it 's hard to understand all of the song completely...because it most likely wasn't finished lyrics wise? :scratch:

Oh and had to include this:

:stretcher :stretcher :stretcher

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yes, demo versions sound different. It is true. But the situation with this song gets even more mysterious because it is demo. Imagine him sitting in the room playing piano, singing the words come to his mind from nowhere or from divine source, let say. It happens with artists very often.
I have read that orchestra was included later when Sony decided to release this song. The original tape was just his voice and piano. I even posted a link on this thread somewhere.

PS. Nice picture LOL Mike looks very hot there.:)
 
Do you think this would be enough for her to help identify herself as his love interest (if she still doesn't fully realize it's her)?

I think it is not enough at all. But I think she doesn’t need to "indentify" herself, it has to be clear as a day for her what he says. And it is not only regarding just this song imo. It would be too simple. There are some other things could be a part of "identification". We do not know... . To know that we have to know her life, her way of thinking etc. but we never will know... .

Well, ya know how that's always been one of my favorite chick flicks. :cheeky: :lol: (and yours, too!) :) Now if I can only find some line out of that song that would feel like it stepped right out of Pride and Prejudice, then I'd be set!

So my favorite line from P&P is.....

"You have bewitched me body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you..I never wish to be parted from you from this day on".....:heart: :girl_sigh:

Those words aren't in any song :naa: but I'll wait while you search to find them.....:popcorn::giggle:

I'm curious what other people think too. It could be either I guess. Or both?



That's a good point. And I think it was Asedora that mentioned that the lyrics were not included with the CD. If we are having this much trouble figuring out what he says in this song, I guess the folks at Sony who would be responsible for printing up the lyrics (with somewhat accuracy) would also. Looks like they didn't even attempt it. lol.


"this" makes a bit more sense then "it." I like that, good job.


AllForMJ noted to us that in the song, This Is It, MJ has the girl saying a lot. She said this, she said that.

Here is basically what "she" had to say:

1. she said she really knows him, too

2. she said she's gonna live/leave it for herself

3. she said (at some point) she didn't want him hanging round

4. she said she was some of it/this herself

5. she said she wanted to go with him all the while

Do you think this would be enough for her to help identify herself as his love interest (if she still doesn't fully realize it's her)?


Here is what he is saying in the song:

1. He's got a love in his heart he can feel and he knows it is real

2. He knows she's got addicted with her eye (if you hear this, it's still up for debate).

3. over the years, after she was "gone" he never heard a single word about her

4. Falling in love (with her?) was in his plan

5. He never thought he would be a lover let alone her lover

6. he feels like he's known her forever and he acknowleges to her that he knows she has seen his face before (in person)

7. he tells her they both can feel this is real, and it is important to him that she knows, that she knows, that she knows, their love is real and his love for her is real.

8. He wants her to understand. Understand "something." (what is that something? There's the mystery)

9. He's been healed

10. This song they can save (their song)and please let it play (he's anxious for her to listen long and closely to this song to guaranteee she get's all that he is trying to communicate to her in the song)

11. He knows now it's true she wanted to go with him afterall, all the while, even though he never knew that all this time
(learning this might have been one of the things that helped "heal him" from past wounding associated with her)

12. One of his favorite animals is the gazelle

13. He feels "this is it!" and she's the one for him!


I would love to hear anyone elses thoughts on any of this. Do you think all he's saying is clear? Do you think he makes it clear just what it is that is important to him for her to understand? Are we eavesdropping on their private discourse goin' on here? haha.

"He said, she said". -_-

:timer:

:lol: :lol:

And this part cracked me up:
"12. One of his favorite animals is the gazelle"

Dont ya just wish we all had magic wands we can use and just make it do all the things we cant be bothered doing :giggle: You kow like doing the dishes, the vacuming and in ur case summer packing! :lol:
 
Bye summer, have fun on your trip. See you soon. :)

I would love to hear anyone elses thoughts on any of this. Do you think all he's saying is clear? Do you think he makes it clear just what it is that is important to him for her to understand? Are we eavesdropping on their private discourse goin' on here? haha.

I thought it was clear to me when it first came out, now I'm not so sure. :ermm: Then again what I think doesn't matter at the end of the day. -_- lol

If it's meant for someone specific, I hope it's clear to "her" and that "she" gets it and understands since it is their love story.....
 
I think it is not enough at all. But I think she doesn’t need to "indentify" herself, it has to be clear as a day for her what he says. And it is not only regarding just this song imo. It would be to simple. There are some other things could be a part of "identification". We do not know... . To know that we have to know her life, her way of thinking etc. but we never will know... .

Isn't it sort of "irrelevant" though now? Since MJ is gone now? I mean, you know...sort of a "a little too late" kind of thing? :scratch:You know, don't you guys think she should have been able to identify herself by now, or MJ should have somehow made it clear to her by now...or other wise it's "too late"? :timer: I mean, not like there'll be any more clues, right? And I mean, imagine if that was you? And you finally realize he was telling you he loved you...and then he just died? :mello: I mean....*singing* "And isn't it ironic...don't you think..."...:mello::lol: Would there really be any point trying to figure it out because he's gone anyways? I think if she didn't know it before he died...it's a bit too late now...don't you think? I mean, what difference would it really make anymore? Not like they'd ever be able to be together? Sorry if that sounds really cynical. :lol: That's just the "non-romantic" me. :lol: Like I said...I lost my love vibe a long time ago. :lol: I mean, I hope someone finds something happy and positive in all that, but to me it's just totally ironic and extremely cruel if two people just find each other and they are each other's "true love" and soulmates...and then the other one just dies right before they get to be together. I mean, to me that just comes across as SO ironic. :mello:

Id be devastated if i was mjs girl in the time of hes death. Could it be that maybe being the face that michael was sometimes shy and so private , that she didnt which way mike's thinking was.

Yes...yes and YES!!! :lol: Do you know how many times I have wished the suitcase would fill itself up if I just snapped my fingers? :lol: :lol: It is still refusing to cooperate! :( :lol: And why can't we beam ourselves from one place to the next yet? Hmpf! :( Would save time and we could just beam ourselves home to change clothes....no need for packing that way!:kickass: :lol: Anyways...I HAVE to run now! :lol: I guess I have to pack the oldfashioned way after all. It sucks! :puke: :lol: :lol: Or...I'll just borrow everyone else's clothes the whole time?! :kickass: :lol: :lol: (Last year when I went home to visit family, I forgot ALL my make up...so I was all over my niece's and my mom's make up trying to find what I need! :lol: I was like "Hey...can I use your foundation? I can't use mom's...her's is too dark for me..."...."Hey mom...can I use your blush....the one (my niece) has isn't the right color"...etc. :lol: :lol: First time in years that I used a black eyeliner too!! :lol: Oh well. Better than looking like a corpse! :lol:)

How i iwsh i was a witch like that lady from the "bewitched" show! :lol:

Ok bye summer! :waving:
 
Yes, that does start to make thier story sound like a Shakespeare tragedy, like Romeo and Juliet.

But if it is true that one line says in the song "I am healed" and that is because there was some healing that needed to happen in MJ's life that only "she" could heal somehow, by maybe his learning that "she" really loves him...then maybe there was also some healing that needed to happen in her life that only learning that MJ wanted her all along would heal.

Even if "she" learned this after his death, it still perhaps would be a healing balm to whatever wound she has carried with her through the years. God can do so much more than we imagine and in ways that we wouldn't expect, and is in the loving business of healing wounds in his chiildren and making us whole...little by little.

But it would make a sweeter picture for us if God's plan would have been all along to one day bring them together.

I think thats what mj was looking for - to be healed from all the pain he suffered over the yrs. He needed someone strong to make him strong.

Summer! Where ya going? Somewhere fun? Have a great time on your trip! :D

Okay, I guess what you said makes sense somehow. But still, even in your case, if she needed healing...wouldn't she have needed to know BEFORE MJ died that he had feelings for her...and hear it directly from him? Because if I think about even just OUR "clue hunting"...anything that comes out now, song or other wise...will be selected by the estate...not by MJ. So it's really anyone's guess what HIS intentions with some song or whatever was. Right? :scratch:So you know, that's why I said that in my opinion if there was someone, she would have needed to know it before MJ died in order to be "sure". Now all anyone can do is guess and wonder and will never know for sure. :scratch: At least in my opinion. :scratch:

And I SHOULDN'T BE HERE!!! *looks at the time* :swoon: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Like I said we do not know what really happened. We just wonder...:) Everybody here was going through his lyrics especially the last song. We know that "he never heard a single word about her" . From this point we were making own assumptions. It is always a mystery with Michael, you know... .:)
If this lady exists I do not think we ever will know anyways because a normal person would never share her private life with the whole world.

Well one would hope that she'd keep it private, if there was someone. I mean, there are already enough people who are selling out their friendship and whatever other relationship or connection they had with him...so it would be disappointing if SHE did also...if there was a "she".

Are u ever gonna get ur packing done?? :lol:

Probably not. :lol: :lol: :lol: Then again...I'm not in the last minute PANIC MODE yet!

Yep , but i bet pretty soon u will in panic mode when it hits 2am! :p :lol:
 
Where did he say ""I am healed"? I do not hear it or you guys were talking about different song?
 
EDIT: This might seem a stretch and hard to pick up...or maybe these aren't the words he says at all , but here:

This is it, I’ve been healed
I’m the light of the world, this is real
Then this song we can save

And I tell you, please, let it play

Oh I got you... I def hear F not H, but it is just me again...LOL
