"Another Part of Me" is a song by American singer and songwriter Michael Jackson. Produced by Quincy Jones (and co-produced by Jackson), it was released as the sixth single on July 11, 1988, for the singer's seventh studio album, Bad (1987). The song was originally featured in Jackson's 1986 3D film Captain EO. It is the sixth song on the album.[3] As with earlier songs in his career such as "Can You Feel It" and "We Are the World", the lyrics emphasize global unity, love and outreach.
The song was featured in the trailer for Jackson's 1988 film Moonwalker, and was featured as a dance attack and level song for the later revisions of Michael Jackson's Moonwalker video game (originally the first revision used excerpts of "Thriller"). The song was also featured in the 1998 movie Rush Hour during a score with Chris Tucker dancing.
In July 2009, a short part of the song was used by singer Madonna as a tribute during the second leg of her Sticky & Sweet Tour.[4] A Jackson impersonator performed his signature moves, while dancing to a medley of Jackson's songs.[5]
