It's actually Vernon Reid who does the lead guitar. Nuno just does the rhythm parts.

Vernon Reid played in a band called 'Living Color'. There are 2 versions of the song. One must be the single version and the other the album version (The Jacksons are good at doing that to, just to confuse people).

Check out 'Cult Of Personality' Mickey...prolly Living Colour's most accesible (i.e best!) rocker. [img]images/smilies/rock.gif[/img]

That "Vivid" album is excellent. Some very good music there. [img]images/smilies/icon_jam.gif[/img]

There are a few versions of the song. Vernon Reid definitely plays on one of them. I don't think Jennifer Batten does though. I thought she only worked with Michael?
