    George Nelson, who wrote a biography about the musical career of Michael Jackson in 2010, discussed the impact of the song and how it helped influence a future song which became known as “Beat It” just a few years later. The song “Beat It” was produced and created by Jackson and Quincy in 1982. According to the biography, Quincy who is the investigator of the song was inspired by the 1979 hit “My Sharona” to help create the song. The biography continues on by saying that “The Knack was at one-album wonder roundly disliked by most rock critics, and the era abounded with countless other pop rock hits from which to draw” (p. 1). With the help of Michael Jackson’s voice, as well as Quincy’s musical expertise, they were able to create the song together. When Jackson released the demo, no guitars or other instruments were used. The only thing available to attract listeners was the sound of Jackson’s unique voice. Although the two songs are very different, it is interesting to look at how one song highly affected and launched the career of a major pop…

    Michael Jackson was born in Gary, Indiana on 1958, and it wasn’t short after that that he would hop onto the fast track to a life chock-full of success, happiness, turbulence, and controversy. At the extremely early age of five, Michael became the lead singer of the legendary Jackson 5, a group consisting entirely of his family members. With being as young as he was, Michael’s vocal work was amazing and he was able to showcase emotions very well. The Jackson 5 was eventually signed under Motown and the Motown music style can be seen as an influence in some of Michael’s later songs. Despite Michael launching his extremely successful solo career at the age of 13, he still continued to work with his family in The Jacksons (renamed from the Jackson 5 after their departure from Motown) and his numerous hit songs helped the group’s popularity even more. It cannot be stressed enough the impact that Michael’s family had on his career. His father’s determination to train his sons and turn the…
