It's from the unreleased demo called "Changes"[3] Yeah mostly mumbling. I'd say this is probably the clearest and most powerful line in the entire demo - aside from the choir, which is VERY strong and continues on for like 2 mins after MJ stops mumbling, including two epic vocal solos. The entire demo is more than 7 mins long.[4]

《Changes》是由美國歌手米高·傑克遜創作的未發行歌曲,原計劃用於專輯《Bad》(真棒)、《HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I》(他的歷史:過去、現在和未來 - 第一輯)。這首歌曲在HIStory Session(《歷史》專輯錄製時期)錄製的版本在2026年1月7日被Korgnex完整泄露。
歌曲背景
《Changes》由John Barnes(約翰·巴恩斯)與他共同創作,於1985-1986年間在Hayvenhurst Studio錄製了最初的Demo版本。這首歌曲原定於收入《Bad》專輯,但最終成為棄曲。[1]1994年,MJ在HIStory時期重製了這首歌曲[#footnote-1 1]。該歌曲在2010年被註冊到美國版權局[2]。
泄露歷史
2023年8月13日,一位用戶在X上泄露了2秒鐘的片段,內容為「That’s what they told me」(這就是他們所說的)。2天後,Damien Shields確認了該片段出自歌曲《Changes》。以下是Damien Shields的回覆。
這來自於一個名叫《Changes》的Demo。 是的,大部分時間都含糊不清。我可以說這是Demo中除了和聲,最清晰、有力的一句人聲。和聲非常有力,而且MJ錄製的人聲結束2分鐘以後才結束。和聲還包括了兩段史詩級的獨唱。整首Demo大概有7分鐘。
同年8月23日,同樣包含「That’s what they told me」的另一個約7秒的音頻被泄露,並加入了更多的音樂和人聲。
2024年5月4日,Korgnex又泄露了這一段落的更長版本,但剪輯後採用了不同的打擊樂(長達50秒)。
2025年8月6日,YouTube用戶「ZX1」泄露了2個低音質片段,分別為完整的結尾(長達53秒)和一段MJ的人聲(長達8秒)。該音頻可以在下方的「相關視頻」內找到。
2026年1月7日,Changes副歌的一個50秒片段被泄露,但暫不知曉該片段的來源。
2026年1月8日,Korgnex泄露了完整曲目。

[Verse 1]
Can't sleep at night, still up at night, still up all night
