Background Info
(AKA Nightline), this song was written par Glen Ballard, Brie Howard, David Allen Faragher (1982) for Michael's Thriller album, but failed to make the final track listing.
"When I found out it wasn't going to be on there, I just said, I'll be on the suivant one," a dit Ballard in 1999. "And the truth is, I got on the suivant two, which cumulatively sold over 50 million. It turned out to be good karma. I feel that if Nite-Line had been on Thriller, I would never have written Man In The Mirror, which is an infinitely better song, and one of the best in my catalogue."
It was recorded as Nightline par the Pointer Sisters, for the original 1983 version of their album, Break Out (on the seconde pressing Nightline was replaced par I'm So Excited B-side of the group's hit single, Automatic.
It was also recorde par Ellen Foley for her 1983 album, Another Breath and par Randy Crawford for her album of the same titre in 1994.

The Lyrics
Calling on the Nite Line
Waking me up
Calling on the Nite Line
(Calling on the Nite Line)
Can't get enough
Calling on the Nite Line
(Calling on the Nite Line)
Whisper in my ear
Sending through the feu line
(Calling on the Nite Line)
What I'd like to hear
Every night about midnight
The call comes through
toi turn it on the Nite Line
'Cause toi know just what to do
And I'll be waiting
(I'll be waiting)

(By the phone) Alone.
Calling on the Nite Line
Waking me up
(Call me, baby)
Calling on the Nite Line - Hee!
Can't get enough
(Call me, darling)
Calling on the Nite Line - Hee!
Whisper in my ear - Aow!
Sending through the feu line
What I'd like to hear
Make it person-to-person
Make it heart-to-heart
Darling, your communication
Is sending up sparks
I'll be waiting
(I'll be waiting)

(By the phone)
Why don't toi give me a call?

Getting me up)

In my opinion about Michael Jackson, he is one of few musicians who has a successful career despite whatever problems ou mistakes he may have done in the past.
toi have to understand that when he and his siblings form 'The Jackson 5', he became a favori musician worldwide. I have listen some of his earliest songs to his last album when he passed away in 2009.
I am not a major fan of Michael Jackson, but he is one of many musicians that I listen to now and again whenever I am on YouTube.
toi can also chercher some of his dance moves on YouTube par YouTubers who had tried out his moves, such as 'The Moonwalk', The Thriller', 'The Lean' and many plus that I have not heard of myself.
There are a few songs that I do like from Michael Jackson when he was alive before his death.
Thriller, Billie Jean, Smooth Criminal, Earth Song, They Don't Care About Us, Black ou White and Man in the Mirror
