Forever, Michael is the fourth studio album by Michael Jackson, released through Motown on January 16, 1975. It became the final record released by the artist under said label.
Background[]
The album was recorded in late 1974 except I'll Come Home to You, which was recorded in December of 1973, almost a year before the album's recording sessions started. The album was planned to release that year. However, production had to be delayed after "Dancing Machine" became a success. A joint promo campaign with Forever, Michael and Moving Violation was launched by Motown in 1975.
This was Jackson's first album where his voice audibly changed, from boy soprano to tenor.
