The track is a co written project between him and entertainer/singer Michael Jackon.
Anyone with more info?
 
I just read the title as

How much Lounis Productions is in Get On The Floor? :LOL:​

 
I don’t think michael gets credit as a vocal arranger. he uses multiple voices on this song and ‘burn this disco out’, which show off his range.
however, I don’t care for either of those songs. I actually think ‘everybody’ was an improvement in every aspect.

Multiple vocal layers aren't per se an arrangement.

And, Michael's given arrangement credits on GOTF.😉

Hmm I guess mainly the verses (but there is also more, like the horns):

'Yesterday, I set me free
Or is it that you walked out on me?

To plant a seed, the truth it be
The hurt so that you won't or can't believe'

reminds me of:


'All alone she's in the ego zone
The word is out that you're doing wrong

On the move got fire in your shoes
By word of mouth you are on the news'

etc.


 
I think Michael's version This Had to Be aka You Not Me has more of a Triumph feel to it and would've worked either before or after Wondering Who. With Jackie and Michael on leads
 
I'd like to hear MJ's recording of YNM. Would be interessting to see what the Johnson bros have contributed to the track.
 
I found this comment on Reddit, could there be any truth in it..?

the whole album is amazing , Sunset driver was shown to them and they reworked some of it and it became "This had to be" :) which he sings on
 
@Victorious: the song (then titled "you not me") was already pretty much crafted

Thanx! The similarities between 'Sunset Driver' and 'You Not Me' does make me think they were both created during the same creative period

Never thought about similarities between them but let me check it out.

Sunset Driver is another one that would've been a good fit for Triumph
