Michael Jackson The Girl is Mine lyrics: Who is MJ and Paul McCartney song about?

Before The Girl is Mine, Michael and Sir Paul had collaborated on Say, Say, Say, which was written by both singers and produced by George Martin, The Beatles producer.

Sir Paul and Michael also co-wrote and co-performed The Man, another song which, along with Say, Say, Say, appeared on Sir Paul’s album Pipes of Peace, released in 1983.

As well as this, Sir Paul had written a song for Michael’s Off the Wall album, Girlfriend, which was also produced by Quincy.

Given their long term collaboration, it could be this song is not based in any fact, and to this day neither performer have suggested their song is based on any actual disagreement or story from their lives.
