This is my belated Unplugged project... :-[

You see it was tax season, and I got the flu, and the website went down....

At first this was a bigger project in my head, with piano, and a lot of vocal tracks.  But I ended up just doing a duet - a guitar and a banjo, with strictly two vocal parts, so it could be done on stage by two people.

Nice job, Rolow - love the banjo!

I too grew sick of this one as it got nearly non-stop FM radio playback way back in the day - but I really enjoyed your take on it.

cheers,

Superb cover of a top song. The banjo works a treat. I'll never get bored of this one - I was lucky enough to see Jackson do it live two or three years ago. You really nailed the harmonies too. Nice one!

Great cover-version of one of my favorite JB songs.
