What does Michael say in RTT and Jam?

[anthontherun]

I've searched lyric sites and come up with nothing--and they're too common to get results here. What exactly are the spoken parts at the beginning of "Remember the Time" and "Jam"?

For RTT, I hear "[something]...you wanna jam? Every time you see" and then laughter but I have no idea if I'm right. I'm more convinced that "Jam" is "You wanna get up and jam?" but when I searched that phrase, no MJ results. Anyone know?

he says "I dunno" "but you wanna try" ( I think it's 'but') "everytime you see" during rtt.
check out the acapella version it's pretty clear there: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFy8PL1aJik

not sure about Jam though.

^ Yeah it is "I dunno, but you wanna try, every time you see *laughter*"

I always wondered what that meant, but then I think I know, hmm....

And I don't know for Jam, sorry.

In RTT it's definitely "I don't know, whatchyou wanna try? Every time you see *laughs*..."

and in "Jam", it's "you wanna get up and jam"

Thanks for the help, everyone! That acapella RTT is amazing; that song's probably my favorite MJ single.
