Babyface - There She Goes (The Neptunes Remix)
Before I reveal Number One on my list (which won’t be today…sorry), here’s one last Neptunes joint that missed the cut; another deleted scene if you will. Also, this was another beat that was originally intended for MJ. Take a listen for yourself: the break-neck tempo (ideal for a sick dance number), the background breathing noises (reminiscent of The King’s trademark gasping ad-libs), the elaborate bridge-like hook (which MJ would’ve ate up and made all his own). It ain’t hard to tell that the ‘Tunes had Michael in mind when they created this composition. And I personally think The King would’ve killed this joint (but alas, he wasn’t trying to hear that). Although to be fair, Babyface does a fine job with the track. There she goes. C’mon…dance!
