Can't We Just Sit Down (And Talk It Over) "Can't We Just Sit Down (And Talk It Over)" is a song by American singer Donna Summer from her album "I Remember Yesterday". Though famous for her disco work at the time, this song is a ballad and was released as a single in certain countries in 1977. However, the B-side, "I Feel Love" caused such a stir that it was replaced as the A-side and became a landmark song in disco. Still, this song made it to #20 on the R&B chart, the first time one of her singles had done so since "Love to Love You Baby".

Love On Top "Love On Top" is a song recorded by American singer Beyoncé for her fourth studio album "4" (2011). Inspired from her state of mind while playing Etta James in the 2008 musical biopic "Cadillac Records", Beyoncé wrote the song alongside Terius Nash and Shea Taylor; its production was handled by Taylor and Beyoncé. A throw-back to 1980s music, the uptempo R&B song exhibits style similar to that of Stevie Wonder, Whitney Houston and The Jackson 5, among others. While incorporating four key changes, Beyoncé adopts a high range when repeating the song's chorus towards the end of the song. She sings about a man whom she can always call, even after facing grief and hard work, finally earning his love and respect.

According to music journalist Nelson George, Michael Jackson and The Jackson 5's "real" recording history did not begin until their move to Motown Records in 1968. The then Detroit-based company, led by Berry Gordy, housed established recording artists such as Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye and Diana Ross, as well as a producing-writing team known as "The Corporation". Jackson 5 hit singles such as "I Want You Back", "ABC" and "The Love You Save" were written by the Motown team, and aided the five brothers in becoming the first black teen idols.

Health and appearance of Michael Jackson Michael Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009) was an American singer who spent over four decades in the public eye, first as a child star with The Jackson 5, and later as a solo artist, during which time he went through various image changes. Starting in the mid-1980s, it became clear that Jackson's appearance was changing dramatically. The shape of his face, particularly his nose, triggered widespread speculation of extensive cosmetic surgery. His skin tone became much lighter. Although Jackson, a black man, was diagnosed with the skin disorder vitiligo, which results in white patches on the skin, and said that he had not purposely bleached his skin but had used makeup to even out his skin tone, it was also widely suggested that his lighter skin tone was partly due to skin bleaching.
