Michael Jackson On Writing ‘Liberian Girl’
May 02, 2024

Michael said he didn’t have any one specific person in mind when he wrote his song “Liberian Girl”: “I wrote that at my house, in the game room. I guess I was playing pinball or something. And the song just popped in my head. I think I ran upstairs and put it on tape. And it became Liberian Girl.” Watch the short film for the song now.
