Michael Jackson's posthumous album Xscape dropped this week, and now a video for the Justin Timberlake collaboration "Love Never Felt So Good" has been shared. It features a number of dancers and Timberlake himself recreating famous scenes from Jackson's famous videos, including "Bad," "Beat It," and "Billie Jean."
As Rolling Stone notes, "Love Never Felt So Good" was the first single executive producer L.A. Reid shared, showing the "contemporized" material. The track was originally co-written, co-produced and recorded by Jackson and Paul Anka ("Put Your Head on My Shoulder," "She's a Lady," "My Way") in 1982, the year after Thriller's release.
The Jackson/Anka version was put aside for three decades; however, Johnny Mathis recorded a version of it in 1984. The version currently on Xscape was reworked by John McClain, the co-executor of Jackson's estate, who put a modern spin on the track and brought in Timberlake.
