Bonus Track: ‘Who Do You Know’

The final bonus track for “Thriller 40,” which is being released next Friday has been announced. “Who Do You Know” is an unheard track that Michael first wrote and started work on this song in 1980 but was still working on it in February 1982. It’s never been leaked, though Michael did acknowledge its existence in a 1993 deposition, and he considered it as a song for the “Thriller” album.

When it failed to make the final cut for the album, Michael considered it again for The Jacksons “Victory” album in 1984 but chose to contribute three other songs to that instead (“State of Shock,” “Be Not Always” and “The Hurt”).
