MICHAEL JACKSON - JACKSON TOOK MINUTES TO PEN BILLIE JEAN

JACKSON TOOK MINUTES TO PEN BILLIE JEAN

MICHAEL JACKSON wrote his chart-busting classic BILLIE JEAN in just three minutes.
The King of Pop was travelling in a car with two of his brothers in the early 1980s when he hit upon the idea of penning a song about a female fan waiting outside his home.
When he pulled out a pad and pen to put down some lyrics, it took him just three minutes to complete the words for the track.
Jackson's former plastic surgeon Dr Steven Hoefflin says, "The fastest song he ever wrote was Billie Jean. He said the lyrics tumbled out of his head in one continuous, rapid stream."
