Do you know the way to San Jose?
I've been away so long. I may go wrong and lose my way.
Do you know the way to San Jose?
I'm going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose.

L.A. is a great big freeway.
Put a hundred down and buy a car.
In a week, maybe two, they'll make you a star
Weeks turn into years. How quck they pass
And all the stars that never were
Are parking cars and pumping gas

You can really breathe in San Jose
They've got a lot of space.
There'll be a place where I can stay
I was born and raised in San Jose
I'm going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose.

Fame and fortune is a magnet.
It can pull you far away from home
With a dream in your heart you're never alone.
Dreams turn into dust and blow away
And there you are without a friend
You pack your car and ride away

L.A. is a great big freeway.
Put a hundred down and buy a car.
In a week, maybe two, they'll make you a star
Weeks turn into years. How quck they pass
And all the stars that never were
Are parking cars and pumping gas

I've got lots of friends in San Jose
Do you know the way to San Jose?
Can't wait to get back to San Jose.

The Immortal World Tour will visit San Jose on 13.1.2012

[paula-c]

If the first thing that to think is this Dionne Warwick's song

[MJonmind]

I can't even read the lyrics without singing the song (tells my age) :lol:  This songs speaks to me of crushed dreams, which MJ had plenty of, but there is a thread of hope. Friends and finding his way back .
"Courtesy of" means paid for by or free because of Michael Jackson? Could that be?  Goes along with all the free leaks of music and video.
Michael just keeps giving and giving!

I found the same song by Dione Warwick too.

Dionne Warwick: "The Jackson Family Will Get Through This"
July 4, 2009

Thousands upon thousands of people have been physically close to Michael Jackson. Far fewer can claim Michael Jackson was close to them emotionally. Legendary singer Dionne Warwick knew Jackson better than most. She and her son, music producer Damon Elliott, spoke with CNN's Don Lemon about their rare friendship with a superstar, especially the making of "We Are the World." (1985). (VIDEO on page.)

Do You Know the Way to San Jose
"Do You Know the Way to San Jose" is a popular song written for Dionne Warwick by Burt Bacharach (music) and Hal David (lyrics). Introduced on the 1968 RIAA Certified Gold album Dionne Warwick in Valley of the Dolls, "Do You Know the Way to San Jose" was issued as the follow-up single to the double-sided hit "(Theme from) Valley of the Dolls"/ "I Say a Little Prayer" in April 1968 and became Warwick's third consecutive Top Ten song, punctuating the most successful period of Warwick's recording career. The flip side of the single "Let Me Be Lonely" also penned by Bacharach/David charted in the Billboard Hot 100 as well and became one of many double-sided hits for Warwick. The tune became Warwick's biggest international hit peaking at #8 in the UK, Ireland, and Canada. The tune charted in France, Italy, South Africa, Australia, Germany, Brazil, Mexico, and many other countries as well.

Michael Jackson Producers Rejected Burt Bacharach Arrangement for New Song
By: Roger Friedman in Celebrity, Music // November 9th, 2010

In our continuing series on the making of Michael Jackson‘s forthcoming “Michael” album:

Producers of the album–including co-executor John McClain–sent Burt Bacharacha song Michael recorded with Eddie Cascio called “All I Need.” The legendary writer-producer went into the studio and added strings, etc. to the track. But it didn’t sound right, sources tell me, and was ultimately rejected. “All I Need,” in some form, may wind up on another album of unreleased Jackson songs. But it won’t be on “Michael.”

Also not on “Michael” is the Paul Anka song, “Love Never Felt So Good.” I guess the Jackson estate paid out enough money to Anka in the last year for writing “This Is It.”

San Jose

San = Santo = Saint

Jose = Joseph

Joseph means "God will increase" or "He (God) will add"

Saint Joseph
Saint Joseph (Hebrew, "Yosef"), often clarified as Saint Joseph the Carpenter is an important figure in Christian belief as the husband of the Virgin Mary and the stepfather of Jesus Christ. According to Christian tradition he was not the biological father of Jesus, but acted as his foster-father and as head of the Holy Family. According to Christian tradition, Jesus was referred to as the son of Joseph during his public life, though in Mark he is referred to as Mary's son (Mark 6:3). Joseph is venerated as a saint in the Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, and Anglican faiths. Matthew and Luke each have a genealogy that traces Joseph's lineage back to King David. Matthew says that Joseph's father was called Jacob,[Mt. 1:16 ]but Luke says he was a son of Heli.[Lk. 3:23] Matthew and Luke are the only Gospels which include the Infancy Narratives, the stories of Jesus' birth and infancy. In Matthew, Joseph lives in Bethlehem, the city of David, where Jesus is born, and then moves to Nazareth with his family. In Luke, Joseph lives in Nazareth, but travels to Bethlehem in compliance with the requirements of a Roman census. He then lives in Bethlehem for an unspecified period (perhaps two years) until King Herod's massacre of the innocents forces him to take refuge in Egypt with his family; on the death of Herod he brings his family back to Israel, and settles in Nazareth.

The gospels describe Joseph as a "tekton"; traditionally the word has been taken to mean "carpenter", though the Greek term is much less specific. It cannot be translated narrowly; it evokes an artisan with wood in general, or an artisan in iron or stone.

Joe Jackson
Settling in Gary, Indiana, Joseph, a former boxer, worked full-time as a crane operator at Gary's U.S. Steel company.

Serenitys_Dream as doing to investigate and to relate all these things?

[nefari]

Maybe we are meant to see the title here saying "Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch" as in still is and always will be Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch but have you all noticed one thing ....There are no trash cans anywhere to be seen in these photos!!! :lol:
So maybe this is da *Troot*

[heisinme09]

This portion of those lyrics really spoke to me about MJ:

Fame and fortune is a magnet.
It can pull you far away from home
With a dream in your heart you're never alone.
Dreams turn into dust and blow away
And there you are without a friend
You pack your car and ride away

[StrangerInCalifornia]

Hmm looks like I'm going to San Jose this weekend haha. Although I cant really imagine that there would be any fairs this time of year.  :?

[shelby61]

What caught my eye was the BAD album cover on one of the posters.........again the BAD era showing up.   8-)

[cin_pyt]

LOL!!!  HE'S ALREADY GIVING THE RIDE OF OUR LIVES. HE'S THAT BAD!!!! MICHAEL AGAIN NOTHING A COINCIDENCE  :lol: KNOWS THE WAY TO SAN JOSE. LET'S NOW KNOW THE WAY TO JOSEPH..........MIKE!

[nefari]

Oh wow, I just thought of something, and it hit me like a brick!!! See the photos where it says from Neverland Ranch!!! What if it means that this entire circus is being sent to us from Neverland Ranch. It's ghostly evacuated exterior may be just a shroud of what it really is like inside. I wonder if Michael is actually there with people helping him pull off all of this "movie". Maybe they have a set there somewhere on the property where Murray is being filmed and the entire fiasco is being sort of broadcast from. I mean think about it, hidden in plain sight...Never neverland that's the place.

This crossed my mind some time ago.....good job connecting the dots, Nefari!

Don't forget! Tom Barrack, who owns Neverland now, just announced recently that he and Rob Lowe (among others, I'm sure) are starting up a multi-billion dollar multi-media empire! I believe Mike is their Silent Partner in this and that Neverland could be the Home Base for all of it!

Hope it's not just wishful thinking on my part, but it sure makes sense to me!
