This song is used as the closing theme for Jackson's 3D Disney movie, Captain EO, which explains the space references in the song's lyrics. >> Written by Jackson, this was the last song chosen for the Bad album. Jackson wanted to use his song "Streetwalker" instead, but his producer Quincy Jones liked this one. They took both songs to Jackson's manager Frank DiLeo, who got up and started dancing when they played "Another Part Of Me." According to Jones, this sealed the deal and that song made the cut.
We're takin' over We have the truth This is the mission to see it through Don't point your finger Not dangerous This is our planet You're one of us We're sendin' out a major love And this is our message to you (message to you) The planets are linin' up We're bringin' brighter days They're all in line waitin' for you Can't you see? You're just another part of me Out from a nation I feel the truth The final message we'll bring to you There is no danger to feel the truth So come again We need you We're sendin' out a major love And this is our message to you (message to you) The planets are linin' up We're bringin' brighter days They're all in line waitin' for you So know the truth You're just another part of me We're sendin' out a major love And this is our message to you (message to you) The planets are linin' up We're bringin' brighter days They're all in line waitin' for you Can't you see? You're just another part of me Another part of me We're taking over This is the truth, baby Another part of me
