The sound is so bad that you can't tell what he's singing at all.

True Faith is a classic New Order song.
Original lyric: "When I was a very small boy, very small boys talked to me"
Changed: "When I was a very small boy, Michael Jackson played with me"

Original lyric: When I was a very small boy, very small boys talked to me/now that we've grown up together, they do drugs with me" [[for the official single, it was cleaned up).

For this 1993 concert: When I was a very small boy, Michael Jackson slept with me/Now that we've grown up together, he plays with my willie".

Back page interview with Barry Gibb, Time Magazine, May 19, 2014:

What happened to the song you recorded with Michael Jackson in 2002?

I wasn't able to release it. I was only allowed to put it on my website. I suppose it never really was perfected. Michael was a little dazed from the child molestation court case. I don't think he really recovered from any of that. He hung out a lot at my house, and I think he hung out at a lot of other people's houses -- anything to get away from his own environment. I feel bad for his kids. I think he was a great father -- I did notice that.


Do you miss your former Justin Bieber level of fame?

No, no. Not having any privacy controls the way you think, and I don't ever want to be like that again. What he's experiencing now, it's really like being lost. When Andy was around that age, he had a pet tiger. Well, there' s Justin with a pet monkey. I see the signs of someone who doesn't know how to deal with it all. I hope he grows into the role, because this is not a good idea for young girls -- it really isn't -- to see him behave like that. He's probably very strong. But he may be surrounded by people who are not very strong.

[[Andy Gibb - tiger; Justin Bieber - monkey; Michael Jackson - chimpanzee!)
