La Toya Jackson didn't get to share her musical ode to childhood memories with her brother Michael. Instead, she's doing the next best thing — sharing it with a cause close to her brother's heart.
All proceeds from La Toya's single, "Home," will go to one of the King of Pop's pet charities, AIDS Project Los Angeles, which provides an extensive array of services for people living with HIV and AIDS.
La Toya had originally planned to release a different single to tease her upcoming album, but after Michael's death on June 25, her label approached her about turning "Home" into a tribute.
"We felt that to move forward, releasing La Toya's album as planned without recognizing Michael's tragic passing was inappropriate," Bungalo Records president Paul Ring says.
The song, released by Ja-Tail Records and Bungalo/Universal and now featuring a specific shout-out to Jackson (aka "Joker," his childhood nickname), hit iTunes on 28th of july, and you can read the lyrics below.
La Toya Jackson - Home
When I’m all alone, I get this feeling It always makes me cry, it’s one I can no longer hide Missing all the years that we all shared at home The silly things we did, laughing, from early dusk to dawn I remember when, we were all best friends… Home, it was so many years ago Parted by the fame we grew to only know It was true when they say the show must go Many years that we let pass Life’s not fair but I know our love will always last We sing on, the memories we all once had When I’m all alone, I think of our busy lives Traveling place to place, we must have met with family, it was nice Joker missed you to, and all the fun we had Never parted a day until we, we went our separate ways I remember when, we were all best friends… Home, it was so many years ago Parted by the fame we grew to only know It was true when they say the show must go Many years that we let pass Life’s not fair but I know our love will always last We sing on, the memories we all once had Home, it was so many years ago (so many years) Parted by the fame we grew to only know It was true when they say the show must go Many years that we let pass Life’s not fair but I know our love will always last We sing on, the memories we all once had So don’t you tell me that I know what I’m feelin’ And don’t you tell me that I’m dreamin’ Like Mother always said, your family will always be there for you It don’t have to be this way, let’s make tomorrow a much, much brighter day And don’t let this time between us, slip away Just slip away… Home, it was so many years ago Parted by the fame we grew to only know It was true when they say the show must go Many years that we let pass Life’s not fair but I know our love will always last We sing on, the memories we all once had Home, it was so many years ago Parted by the fame we grew to only know (grew to only know) It was true when they say the show must go Many years that we let pass (so many years) Life’s not fair but I know our love will always last We sing on, the memories we all once had The memories we all once had
