Michael Jackson’s ‘She’s Out Of My Life’ Released In 1980
April 04, 2024
Released this week in 1980, “She’s Out of My Life” is a deeply emotional ballad and the fourth single from Off The Wall. Michael talks about how it was placed on the album: “We couldn’t put this cut at the beginning or end the record because it would have been such a downer. That’s why when Stevie’s song (“I Can’t Help It”) comes on afterward, so gently and tentatively, as if it was opening a door that was bolted shut, I still go ‘Whew’.”
