AllMusic | [2] |
One Day in Your Life is a compilation released by Michael Jackson's former record label Motown Records, consisting of both solo and Jackson 5 tracks recorded with Motown, and released on March 25, 1981.[3] It was the first Jackson album released in the 1980s. Most of the tracks are from Jackson's fourth studio album, Forever, Michael (1975). The other songs were taken from Jackson 5 releases to pad the album's running time. Motown later admitted that the album was just a quick cash grab generated from the success of Jackson's Off the Wall (1979).[4]
The compilation's title track, which had already been released on Forever Michael in 1975, was released as a single and became a worldwide hit, especially in the United Kingdom, where it became Jackson's first number-one hit as a solo artist.
