這張單曲是用來促銷《Thriller》25周年紀念專輯。“黑眼豆豆”組合的製作人Will.i am為該曲做了特別混音,並加入了自己的演唱。
In 2007, a demo version of the song (before Paul McCartney's involvement) was remixed with added new lyrics rapped by hip-hop vocalist and producer will.i am, for Thriller 25 (a 25th Anniversary special edition of Thriller). The mix is very different from the Thriller album recording and is significantly shorter - conforming to the modern trend for shorter songs being more popular as singles. Hip-hop beats have been layered over the remixed song, creating a very different sound and vibe though Jackson's original vocal recordings were retained. The song includes never before heard different and additional vocals by Jackson, taken from the original demo which is also included on the physical 5" CD single as well as iTunes downloads in most European iTunes stores.
Internationally, "The Girl Is Mine 2008" was released as a downloadable single on January 14 and as a physical release on January 25. In the U.K the original physical release date was January 28 but pushed back to February 4. In the U.S however, "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' 2008" was the first single to be released.These are Jackson's first singles since "One More Chance" , in 2003.

評價


The Girl Is Mine 2008
The Girl Is Mine 2008
Will.i am版本的《The Girl is Mine》令人興奮,其中混入了放克又低沉的嘻哈式節奏。也許這就是Will所謂的“俱樂部爆炸曲”。值得注意的是,它巧妙使用了一些本來很可能是垃圾的東西,卻結果造就了一些絕對獨特的聲效。
但這首曲目不只是一首經典的混音——Will和Michael將它變成了一首獨立的新歌。在歌曲中,Will配合著Michael演唱合聲部分,在“the girl is mine……”后,加入了有節奏的“she mine, she mine”,以及在“don't waste your time……”后,加入“your time, your time”。此外,Will還會突然插入一句說唱:“She likes the way I rock, the-way-I-rock”。
原始版本里的Paul McCartney被略掉了。這首曲目里找不到他。新的《The Girl is Mine》里,是Will來扮演“那個男人”。在結尾處,並沒有原始《The Girl is Mine》的那段爭風吃醋式的吵嘴對白(MJ和Paul McCartney),而是以一段說唱作為“回歸”。這個版本比原始版本更加“合作”,因為原始版本里,我們只聽到Michael和Paul在為一個女孩子吵來吵去,但在這個版本里,Will的那部分,彷彿融合在Michael的聲音里,反之亦然。
另外還要注意到的是,這首新版本里,有Michael與之前不同的唱段。它們不是全新的,——儘管有些即興插入的唱詞可能是全新的,因為Michael之前在錄音期間錄製過很多種演唱樣帶,不知道是否是從那裡面調用出來的。無論如何,聽到這些不同的東西,非常讓人興奮。因為不管是不是全新的,它們對我們來說,卻是全新的。現在,它們將要首度曝光了。
總的來說,這是一首優秀的曲目,你會忍不住跟著節奏點頭。硬性的節奏和瘋克的聲效,配合著Michael驚人的嗓音和Will獨特的說唱風格,毫無疑問將把這首歌推向俱樂部排行榜的榜首!
