about

Perhaps one of the oddest hit songs of all time. A song about denying paternity. "Billy Jean is NOT my lover." Did anyone bother to listen to the words?

Slowed down and pared down it becomes a much better tune that reminded me of older music. I am currently working on an album of tunes from the Baroque era (Other People's Songs, Ancient Edition) and thought I might try my hand at a older sounding tune to frame the song. Lots of lutes, recorders and dulcimers.

But remember - "The kid is NOT my son."
