*ABOUT THIS VIDEO*

Join me for this deep dive into music history as I step inside the studio with Steve Porcaro, the legendary songwriter, session keyboardist, and founding member of Toto, to hear the full, real story behind how he wrote “Human Nature,” one of Michael Jackson’s most beloved and timeless songs.

Steve and I sit down at the synths to re-create some of the signature “Human Nature” parts, talk through the gear, textures, and techniques, and revisit what it felt like to craft these sounds in the early ’80s.

Steve also opens up about how the track began as his personal demo and how Quincy Jones heard something special in it, transforming it into a Michael Jackson classic by bringing in world-class musicians like Steve Lukather, whose unmistakable R&B guitar flavor helped define the final sound and turn it into a “Michael song.”

If that isn't enough, you'll hear first-hand, never-before-told stories about Steve’s unexpected songwriting sessions with Michael himself , including the two unreleased songs they created together. Michael would show up at Steve’s studio unannounced, ready to work. Only weeks after Thriller was released, with Michael at his peak, the two of them were already deep into making brand-new music. Steve shares details about the still-unreleased tracks they worked on: “Chicago 1945” and “Dream Away.”

Along the way, Steve recalls unforgettable studio moments from working with Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson, and the incredible Los Angeles session scene.

#ChrisRea (Christopher Anton Rea, born 4 March 1951) is an English #rock and #blues singer-songwriter and guitarist. Born and raised in Middlesbrough, he is of Italian and Irish descent. He is known for his distinctive, husky singing and slide guitar playing, with the Guinness Rockopedia describing him as a "gravel-voiced guitar stalwart". After learning to play the guitar relatively late, a short burst of local band activity led to his launching a solo career in 1978.

Louder magazine calls Rea "rock's ultimate survivor", given his recovery from several bouts of serious illness. He has produced twenty-five solo albums, with several from his later blues period - such as Blue Guitars (2005) - having multiple discs. British Hit Singles & Albums says that Rea was "one of the most popular UK singer-songwriters of the late 1980s" and "already a major European star by the time he finally cracked the UK Top 10 with the release of the [1989] single "The Road to Hell (Part 2)..." his 18th chart entry." Two of his most successful studio albums, The Road to Hell (1989) and Auberge (1991), topped the UK Albums Chart. His other hit songs include "I Can Hear Your Heartbeat", "Stainsby Girls", "Josephine", "On the Beach", "Let's Dance", "Driving Home for Christmas", "Working on It", "Tell Me There's a Heaven", "Auberge", "Looking for the Summer", "Winter Song", "Nothing to Fear", "Julia", and "If You Were Me", a duet with Elton John. Rea was nominated three times for the Brit Award for Best British Male Artist: in 1988, 1989 and 1990.

Rea has never toured the United States, where he is best known for the 1978 single "Fool (If You Think It's Over)," which reached No. 12 on the Billboard Hot 100 and spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Adult Contemporary chart. This success earned him a Grammy nomination as Best New Artist in 1978. A decade later, Working On It topped the Mainstream Rock chart. As of 2009, Rea had sold more than 30 million records worldwide.
