Don't stop 'til you get enough - Michael Jackson

'Don't stop 'til you get enough' was the first single taken from Michael Jackson's 1979 album 'Off the wall'. Jackson claimed that when the melody of the song came to him, he couldn't shake it off. He found himself humming and singing it while walking through the Jacksons' Encino home. As Michael could not play, he had his brother Randy play the melody on a piano in the family's recording studio.

When Jackson's mother, a devout Jehovah's Witness, heard the song, she was shocked by the lyrical content. She pointed out that the title could be referring to sexual activity. Jackson reassured her that the song was not a reference to sex, but could mean whatever people wanted it to. The single became a number one hit in Australia, Belgium, Denmark, Norway and the USA. In the Netherlands and Sweden it peaked at number 2, while in the UK it reached number 3.
