Michael Jackson - Remember The Time - Lyrics
Release Date - January 14th, 1992
Album - Dangerous
Do you remember
When we fell in love
We were so young and innocent then
Do you remember
How it all began
It just seemed like heaven so why did it end?
Do you remember
Back in the fall
We'd be together all day long
Do you remember
Us holding hands
In each other's eyes we'd stare
(Tell me)
Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time
When we first met girl
Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time
Do you remember
How we used to talk
(Ya know)
We'd stay on the phone at night till dawn
Do you remember
All the things we said like
I love you so I'll never let you go
Do you remember
Back in the Spring
Every morning birds would sing
Do you remember
Those special times
They'll just go on and on
In the back of my mind
Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time
When we first met girl
Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time
Those sweet memories
Will always be dear to me
And girl no matter what was said
I will never forget what we had
Now baby!
Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time
When we first met
Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time
Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time
When we first met
Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time
Remember the times
Ooh
Remember the times
Do you remember girl
Remember the times
On the phone you and me
Remember the times
Till dawn, two or three
What about us girl
Remember the times
Do you, do you, do you, do you, do you
Remember the times
In the park, on the beach
Remember the times
You and me in Spain
Remember the times
What about, what about
Remember the times
Ooh, in the park
Remember the times
After dark
Do you, do you, do you
Remember the times
Do you, do you, do you, do you
Remember the times
Yeah yeah
Michael Jackson is the only artist who can ever live in the dizzy heights of Thriller's success yet create albums like Dangerous, where every single song charted on it's own, without much promotion.
Released November 1991,selling more than 32 million copies around the world, Dangerous was Michael's last best album before his life and health fell apart like nine pins.
Dangerous was the most anticipated album of the 90s just like Thriller in the 1980s,it was so popular that armed mafia robbers stole 30,000 copies of the very first shipment that reached the L.A airport, these high quality cassettes and CDs were supposed to be sold to the Hollywood celebrities but ended up in the hands of South American and Russian billionaires , purchased from the black market many times the original price.
"Black or White" , the album's best selling single had a music video which cost Michael Jackson a whooping $4 million in 1990, with the state of the art special effects including morphing...the song reached the summit of the U.S Billboard Hot 100 Singles charts with ease and stayed there for 7 weeks."Black or White" is officially the most watched music video premier ever with an estimated audience of 500 million viewers across the globe.
"Remember the Time" is another song whose music video had amazing special effects with lead roles by Eddie Murphy, David Bowie's supermodel wife Iman as well as a miniature role for Magic Johnson.The song topped the R&B charts in the U.S as well as many other charts across the globe.
Michael Jackson is the only artist to date who was able to bring all the big names in Hollywood to tag a role in his music videos.He did it for "Liberian Girl" in Bad, 1987 and he did the same for most of his music videos in Dangerous.
"Jam" is one such song which featured the iconic basketball player Michael Jordan, dance and play basketball along side Michael Jackson which also featured the Home Alone movie child star Macaulay Culkin.
"Will You Be There" an OST for the Hollywood flick Free Willy is considered by many as Michael's masterpiece that never got the credit it deserved. Many popular musicians and world leader's rate this song as their favorite MJ song because of the song's message, the movie's message as well as for the symphony created by Cleveland Orchestra.
Michael Jackson is a man of many controversies, many still hold him morally guilty for grabbing his crotch on national TV at the SuperBowl Halftime show,his Capella dancing in the downtown streets of L.A for the last few minutes of his "Black or White" music video.But nobody expected him to release a music video far too sexy for it's time "In The Closet" around May 1992.
Banned in South Africa, Middle East..censored in Indonesia, "In The Closet" music video is MJ's version of sexually expletive material with a lyrics equally provocative for an young audience.
"In The Closet" was supposed to be Michael's first collaboration with Madonna, but MJ shelved the project as he considered Madonna's contribution in both lyrics and video would end him in hot waters.
Michael started touring the globe to promote Dangerous and gave his first live interview in almost 15 years to Oprah Winfrey during February 1993 at his Neverland Ranch, that specific episode of the Oprah Winfrey show still holds the records for one of the most watched talk show episodes, ever.
Sony signed a 6 album record deal with MJ including the rights to his concert songs for an incredible $895 million in 1993, but this was just the beginning.. MJ also performed at the SuperBowl Halftime Show on January 31st 1993, considered by many as the greatest SuperBowl moment if not a show, watched by an audience of more than 125 million viewers ,the largest in the history of American Live TV.
Dangerous had many other chart busters including "Give In to Me", "Who Is It","Heal the World" , "Dangerous" and finally "Gone Too Soon", a track many of his fans dedicate to a legend called Michael Jackson.
