ABOUT THIS VIDEO
Renowned songwriter and associate producer of Michael Jackson's iconic "Off the Wall" album, Tom Bähler, unveils a remarkable tale of serendipity, as he delves into the captivating narrative behind his composition, "She's Out of My Life." This compelling story takes us on an unexpected journey from Tom's initial connection to the legendary Frank Sinatra, ultimately leading the song into the hands of a young Michael Jackson, a prospect that had never crossed Tom's mind.
At its heart, this narrative revolves around themes of love, self-discovery, and unwavering faith in one's creative partnerships, even in the face of unforeseen twists. Tom's exploration of his songwriting process is nothing short of a masterclass, offering invaluable insights for songwriters at all levels.
Tom shares the mystical moment when he tapped into a universal force that responded with resounding inspiration, swiftly transforming his vision into musical notes. Moreover, he unravels how his initial course for the song underwent a profound transformation when he entrusted his long-time friend and superstar producer, Quincy Jones, to take the helm. This marked the genesis of a transformative chapter in Tom's career, as he began collaborating with both Quincy and Michael together, having already worked with them separately for years. The triumphant trio of "Off the Wall," "Thriller," and "Bad" would go on to etch their names in music history, with "She's Out of My Life" chosen as the inaugural track to set the stage.
Tom also provides keen insights into how these three albums played a pivotal role in propelling Michael's evolution from a singer that sings other peoples music, to a multifaceted artist encompassing singing, songwriting, dancing, and visual artistry. As the music industry experienced seismic shifts with the advent of MTV and advancements in recording technology, Tom emerges as a visionary who not only foresaw these changes but also knew precisely how to leverage them. His contributions alongside Quincy Jones and Michael Jackson would leave an indelible mark on the musical landscape.
