Michael Jackson - The Lady In My Life (Complete Version) [HIGHEST QUALITY]

One could say that in comparison to the seven smash singles off 'Thriller', few people remember 'The Lady In My Life', arguably Michael's finest vocal moment on the album. Fewer people know about the cut first chorus and second verse, trimmed due to the physical capabilities of the 12" LP record, which is optimised for roughly 18-20 minutes of music per side. 'Billie Jean' was the only other song on the album to receive this treatment, although the original mix quickly resurfaced as a 12" mix. The longer version of 'The Lady In My Life', however, only surfaced twenty years later in murky quality on the 2002 promotional CD compilation, 'The Songs of Rod Temperton'. That version is one available on YouTube as the 'demo' or 'complete version'. However, this newly-leaked version not only contains the cut verses in high quality, it also runs slightly longer, meaning we also hear some previously unreleased ad-libs from Michael. Many thanks to Twitter user @MJJVariety for sharing this version, which in my opinion is even better than the album cut - no copyright infringement intended and enjoy!
