The Discussion of MJ's Unreleased Tracks

I've theorized that the song may have been made for a potential TV series in mind since around the time the song was made Michael was trying to get himself to play Tutankhamun in a TV show. The timing is too coincidental if you ask me lol

Shut Up & Dance (Eric Kirkland / Michael Prince / Michael Jackson) - 11th September 2008


Verse 1
Start getting dressed up for the evening
You worked your tail off all week long
And I just can’t wait to see you, baby
'Cause tonight we going out to get our groove on

I don’t want to hear no lame excuses **
Like you’ve got somewhere else to be **
Tell your friends stop sweating you, it’s useless **
When it’s over girl you're coming home with me (Yeah!) **** **

Chorus
Just forget about your problems
When you leave that daily grind
Don’t you worry 'bout tomorrow
Let the music free your mind

Stop thinkin' 'bout folks starin' at you
That’s too much to bare (Shut up and dance)

Those drama talkers ain’t thinkin' 'bout-chu
So why should you care?
Shut up and dance
Shut up and dance

Verse 2
Hey girl, you look so good, I love it
You’re gonna knock me to my knees
Your body’s bangin’, girl, it hurt me,
You got me beggin’ baby, please, please, please

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
You don’t really have nothing to lose ***
And you know, you know it (Girl!) **

Just let the music take control of you
'Cause you want it baby!

Chorus Out


Note: I did not write down the ad-libs on the versions this time.

** Some of the lines are skipped in some later (more upbeat) mixes that incorporate BOTDF instrumentation.
*** "lose" changed to "do, baby" in later versions
**** "Yeah!" changed to "Hello!" in one later version

Interesting info about the changes made in later versions, thanks for posting.
 
I mean, Damien said he's heard an instrumental version of Tomboy. Who's gonna ask him if Stop That has anything in common with it?

Edit: Nvm. Already asked

Just wanted to point out that the $50,000 tape of Seven Digits on eBay was sold. Motif said he bought it on discord, but he could’ve just have been trolling. Idk what idiot would buy that for $50 when this sold for like
 
If I recall correctly, there were some additional seminars held after the theft where new material was played, but the collaborators never let the computers / hard drives out of their sight.
