Jacko wanted‘One Day In Your Life’ played at his funeral
Washington (ANI): Michael Jackson"s former producer has revealed that the King of Pop wanted 1981 tune 'One Day In Your Life" to be played at his farewell ''concert''. The track was recorded by Jackson for his 1975 album Forever, and he himself thought if would make a great tune for his funeral, reports Contactmusic.
The song's co-writer and producer, Samm Brown recalls, "It's a very prophetic song. The lyrics are very deep and Michael even told me, ''This would be a good song for my obituary or my funeral.''" Brown insists the song was always one of Michael's favourites: "He liked using that part of his voice. He had incredible range but he liked that sound."
He
adds,
"Michael
was
such
a
perfectionist
and
he
had
a
lot
of
stuff
that
he
didn't
use.
I
know
for
a
fact
that
Motown
(record
label)
has
a
deep
vault
and
I
would
say
there
are
100
or
more
tracks
sitting
at
Motown
alone.
"Plus
there
will
be
somebody
in
his
(Jackson)
camp
who
will
want
to
release
all
of
the
lost
tracks
he
recorded
-
dating
way
back
to
the
1960s.
There''s
huge
money
to
be
made
off
of
these
recordings,
and
this
is
the
way
of
the
music
business
-
it''s
still
a
business."
