“I Just Can’t Stop Loving You” is a smooth ballad that expresses the strong attachment and infatuation that often accompanies falling in love.

It was the first single released from Bad and the first of five singles from the album to chart at #1, reaching that coveted spot on the Billboard Hot 100, Adult Contemporary, and R&B charts.
Michael had initially wanted Whitney Houston or Barbara Streisand to appear on the song with him, but they declined the offer.

Siedah had no idea that she was being considered to appear on the song, stating that she found out by surprise when reporting to what she thought was a Man In The Mirror session:

“….we had finished with the choir and everything and all the vocals for “Man in the Mirror,” and then a couple of days later we were back in the studio and I thought we were going to do more work on that song, but that wasn’t the song that was playing in the studio, so I just decided to sit back and chill. I was knitting, Quincy sort of talking to me over his shoulder, saying, do you like this song that’s playing? And I sort of look up towards the heavens, I go, yeah, yes, nice song. He said, well, can you sing it? I’m like, yeah. So I put my knitting down and I go into the booth and I hear Quincy, he says, Siedah, go in the vocal booth. Michael, go on in there with Siedah. And Michael is following me. And I go into the booth and I see two mic stands, two music stands, two lyric sheets. And on the lyric sheet that I’m looking at it says, “I Just Can’t Stop Loving You,” Michael, Siedah, Michael, Siedah. And it was, Michel, it was in that moment that I realized, oh my god, I’m doing a duet with the king of pop. Lord have mercy. Help me, Jesus. But he was so cool and I found it so refreshing.”

Siedah revealed that Michael had a lot of fun during the recording sessions, often displaying his humorous side:

“While in the studio recording our duet “I Just Can’t Stop Loving You”, Michael recorded his part, but when it came to me singing my verses, he began tossing popcorn in my face in an effort to make me mess-up. Producer Quincy Jones, not seeing this, began to chastise me for flubbing the takes. Michael, on the other hand, was just CRACKING UP!”
