Quincy Jones - P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing) Lyrics






Here did you come from lady
And ooh won't you take me there
Right away won't you baby
Tendoroni you've got to be
Spark my nature
Sugar fly with me
Don't you know now
Is the perfect time
We can make it right
Hit the city lights
Then tonight ease the lovin' pain
Let me take you to the max

I want to love you (P.Y.T.)
Pretty young thing
You need some lovin' (T.L.C.)
Tender lovin' care
And I'll take you there
I want to love you (P.Y.T.)
Pretty young thing
You need some lovin' (T.L.C.)
Tender lovin' care
I'll shake you there

[Background:]
Anywhere you wanna go

Nothin' can stop this burnin'
Desire to be with you
Gotta get to you baby
Won't you come it's emergency
Cool my fire yearnin'
Honey come set me free
Don't you know now is the perfect time
We can dim the lights
Just to make it right
In the night

Hit the lovin' spot
I'll give you all that I've got

I want to love you (P.Y.T.)
Pretty young thing
You need some lovin' (T.L.C.)
Tender lovin' care
And I'll take you there
I want to love you (P.Y.T.)
Pretty young thing
You need some lovin' (T.L.C.)
Tender lovin' care
I'll take you there

[Breakdown:]
Pretty young things repeat after me
(Michael) I said na na na
(P.y.t.'s) na na na
(Michael) na na na na
(P.y.t.'s) na na na na
(Michael) na na na
(P.y.t.'s) na na na
(Michael) I said na na na na na
(P.y.t.'s) na na na na na
(Michael) I'll take you there

I want to love you (P.Y.T.)
Pretty young thing
You need some lovin' (T.L.C.)
Tender lovin' care
And I'll take you there
I want to love you (P.Y.T.)
Pretty young thing
You need some lovin' (T.L.C.)
Tender lovin' care
I'll take you there

Quincy Jones P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing) Comments
  1. M.... ....

    Hey to be fair! T pain told him “Man I don’t know what to do with this song! I don’t like it”. He should have gave him another project then

  2. R.... A....

    This is auto tune shit! Quincy has no one to blame but himself.

  3. D.... F....

    This is how PYT would have sound original if it came out between 2008 - 2015

  4. T.... I....

    Omg. The extreme autotune is shitting on it. Just leave Mike's songs alone unless it's actually good.

  5. E.... K....

    It's not as bad as they say.. Very good

  6. m.... ....

    My ears immediately started to hurt. Some songs should have the right to not be allowed to be sang by just anybody.

  7. M.... M....

    T-Pain............pain in the ass.

  8. T.... ....

    I hope I can turn this into instrumental and record a cover version :)
    Any suggestions guys? ;-)

  9. M.... ....

    Are these fucking retards dissing Tpain don't understand he didn't fucking want this released. So many ignorant people ffs

  10. M.... T....

    Damn....I just wasted 4m13 of my life

  11. L.... W....

    Im only on here, because Tpain is the Monster on FOX’s Masked Singer and he hasn’t been unmasked yet... but i’m so convinced it’s him. Robin Thicke is one of the judges on the show and still has not guess it’s him 🤦🏾‍♀️ lol, they literally made a song together, HOW CAN YOU NOT KNOW ROBIN?!? 🤣

  12. s.... a....

    i’m here bc i heard this when i was on the cruise heading to mexico & me & my bae were dancing to this when we heard t pain 😂❤️

  13. M.... G....

    Tbh this isn't half bad actually good.💁

    M.... G....

    Mattatron Gar THANK YOU! Every comment I’ve seen has been people hating on this. I actually enjoy this version

  14. E.... B....

    Ohe Yeah this is Great,What time do the Record Store open?NOT😎

  15. G.... B....

    Quincy Jones... you ain’t right for this one

  16. K.... S....

    quincy didnt like this lol

  17. D.... ....

    Not throwing any shade on either side of the T-Pain Quincy debate, they're both great in their own right, but in all fairness, it is YOUR job as the producer - not the artist - to not only direct the artist in how you want them to sound and perform, (including in this case the level of auto-tune that should have been used, which is clearly lower than heard here,) but also decide on the quality and commercial worthiness of the final product. If you put it out, it is assumed it meets your quality standard, and therefore it is on you, not the artist on the commercial appeal of the finished product. Just saying, as a music producer myself, that's how it's supposed to go.

  18. M.... F....

    Wow they did amazing 😍❤

  19. A.... A....

    This my song yassssss. QUINCY I WISH YOU WOULD SING LADY IN MY LIFE OR I CAN'T HELP IT BY MICHAEL JACKSON OOOH YEA I COULD HEAR YOUR VOICE ON I CAN'T HELP IT THAT WOULD BE BEAUTIFUL. COULD YOU SING IT ON LIVE INSTAGRAM ONE DAY PWEEZE.

  20. R.... �....

    Dude, why you ruin a legendary song with autotune singer?

  21. D.... B....

    This might of been better if the auto tune was not used, since T-Pain knows how to sing without it also.

  22. M.... M....

    Alvin and the Chipmunks would sound betta than this bulls***!

  23. t.... c....

    no credit to that beautiful female voice?

  24. U.... M....

    I see the problem with this. The beat is trash, Quincy set Tpain up for failure.

  25. a.... ....

    T-Pain said: "For the record I told my managers (at the time) and I told @QuincyDJones in his face “I don’t want to remake any of your past records because I know I’m gonna fuck it up. I’ll never be able to reach the greatest of MJ” it took them hours to pump me up to even go in the booth. And I still hated it when I came out of the booth. Then the song came out and it was even worse than it sounded in the studio. This is legit one of the reasons I don’t work with the managers I had anymore because if I said I was uncomfortable doing something they didn’t care. " QJ is a bad man who wants to live from MJ success still but can't understand nobody can reach to MJ.

  26. F.... L....

    it was that corny ass production that was too outdated to up-pase.... now if they used Kanye's version of production it would have hit... not a current Kanye fan but his humble early works was dooper soup 👍

  27. T.... R....

    Breakfast club sent me here

  28. 0.... R....

    This is raw asf why all of the hate?

  29. n.... ....

    What the fuck is this shit?

  30. K.... ....

    Bruh, this doesn't sound bad lol people love to hate. Besides, Quincy himself was the director in this lol

  31. E.... S....

    what this shit if fire i dunno what quincy smoking. Might not be up to jacko standard but this aint bad at all

  32. r.... ....

    What brought me here was the recent Quincy Jones interview. This version is downright awfulllll!!!!

  33. S.... ....

    I see why Mr. Jones is disappointed!

  34. T.... R....

    This shit is GahBitch!!!!!

  35. C.... B....

    Honest opinion: This song is bad only because it's a MJ remake, BUT if this was the original it would be 'passable' given the songs out at the time.

  36. O.... O....

    Robin Thicke did okay, but the rest of song is bullshit, they ruined a great song.

  37. B.... ....

    I can't make it through the whole song.

  38. B.... ....

    R Thicke sounds good.

  39. L.... V....

    You let nas down fam

  40. L.... J....

    Not that bad

  41. R.... C....

    Quincy story brought me here.

  42. V.... M....

    jesus its horrible.

  43. T.... 7....

    This sounds terrible. Why did T-Pain try and redo one of MJ's greatest hits??? Nooooooooooooo. Someone should have stopped him!

  44. D.... v....

    Terrible

    Just terrible

  45. m.... h....

    Robin Thicke sounds good

  46. M.... M....

    SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!! Even QJ says "I said to them, “Look, you got to make the music better than we did on the originals.” That didn’t happen. T-Pain, man, he didn’t pay attention to the details." http://www.vulture.com/2018/02/quincy-jones-in-conversation.html?utm_source=fb&utm_medium=s3&utm_campaign=sharebutton-t

  47. I.... K....

    Nooooo,just read Q article,so looked this song up(he hated this album)T-pain should have stuck to his guns and passed on this, because it sucks

  48. E.... F....

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMBXhDcogcI

  49. M.... R....

    “Look, you got to make the music better than we did on the originals. That didn’t happen. T-Pain, man, he didn’t pay attention to the details." - Q

  50. R.... J....

    This shit is terrible! How did it even make the album? Recording should have been deleted or thrown in the trash!!!

  51. C.... D....

    came here thinking im about to hear some garbage but this is actually pretty decent

  52. M.... E....

    Y'all hate this song but if it went #1 like most remakes of hit songs the reaction would be totally different

  53. p.... ....

    This is trash until Robin Thicke comes in. They should have let Robin do this solo, because he handled business! I see why Quincy Jones was so disgusted with T-Pain’s rendition of such a timeless song.💯

  54. T.... ....

    WTFF is this bullsh*t

  55. R.... B....

    Worst. Way to to ruin a great song, t-pain

  56. F.... O....

    Sounds good to me.

  57. C.... U....

    Quincy Jones interview brought me here

  58. S.... ....

    This is so funny

  59. L.... H....

    I think what ruins this is that we have heard what T pain sounds like without autotune, and he sounds way better. His natural voice would of been a better fit for this. Also the his content doesn't fit what the song is about.

  60. T.... M....

    Why did robin do this???? I can’t

  61. d.... b....

    awful.  we should play this to ISIS prisoners to make them talk.

  62. W.... G....

    Never heard this until I read about it on Vulture. At least T Pain admitted it was terrible. I'll give him that.

  63. t.... y....

    Big mistake

  64. I.... l....

    The fact that no one on this fucked up earth could ever do this better then micheal... But i give em a c 4 the effort.... Some shit shouldnt be remade though....

  65. J.... W....

    Still better than Wale's version.

  66. g.... ....

    so im here because of quincys comment but i dont think this is a bad cover....quincy need to chill and enjoy his accomplishments

  67. z.... ....

    So here's the problem. The original P.Y.T is very dynamic in it's range. T Pain is using CHEAP ASS INSTRUMENTS, it's sad because even the synths are not better quality and the technology back then was trash compared to 2010.

    You have to layer your cheap instruments to get a good effect, sometimes with 3 or 4 different octaves or different synths.

    The kick is terrible. Go and listen to the original, there's far more fidelity, this is a cheap knock off.

  68. Q.... L....

    Robin thicke paid attention to the details

  69. J.... P....

    T pain should've sang this without the auto tune and Robin should've got more parts, and tried a bit harder

  70. S.... B....

    Thicker gets down on this but TPain is horrible

  71. J.... T....

    I don't think the song is that terrible. I've definitely heard worse much worse songs getting more then this. And yes vulture brought me here as well

  72. e.... s....

    Quincy Jones is right. This is horrible.

  73. A.... G....

    If the song is that bad, QJ should have cut it. But he didn't. He makes mistakes too. He also dissed the Beatles in the interview. I think that's funny, and odd, and sad.

  74. D.... C....

    This is one of my fave MJ songs and it hurts to hear this. OUCH.

    D.... C....

    That's coz you're a sheep. You hate it because Quincy put that idea in your head. The song is so similar to the original that it is absurd for people to hate it so much. It is very faithful to the original

  75. F.... M....

    That's *HORRIBLE* ! 😲 You deserve to listen to it during 24h non stop ! And it's just because i'm french i don't have enough vocabulary in english.
    Whatever, in french : Oh putain c'est vraiment de la merde !! Mes oreilles saignent Aaaaaah

  76. G.... H....

    people overreact too much nowadays lol this song came out decent honestly. Not better than the original obviously but still good

  77. A.... G....

    This production is not great. The drum programming is pretty lame. It's the same lame loop throughout mostly. Should have got Sonny Moore or something. lol

  78. Q.... W....

    the existence of this is wrong

  79. D.... B....

    Noooooooooooooooooooooo

  80. B.... M....

    Way too much autotune

  81. E.... U....

    T-Pain man, he didn’t pay attention to the details.

    E.... U....

    Not at all

    E.... U....

    That's what quince said in his interview

    E.... U....

    But I think we all know that according to the comments section

    E.... U....

    Dude... you're an NPC just repeating other people's words. Think for yourself

    E.... U....

    @Amaravi says the person saying NPC. You drone.
    This version fucking sucks, Quincy has the right to disown this abomination.

  82. C.... S....

    Oh this is absolutely horrendous. I’m actually embarrassed for T-Pain

    C.... S....

    You're basic. Just repeating what you heard other people saying. I'm a remixer and this remix is so similar to the original that it is absurd to call this horrendous.

  83. D.... T....

    T-Pain shouldnt have used auto-tune... he knows he can sing smh

  84. Q.... D....

    Somebody said T-pain committed violence against this song 😂😂😂

  85. G.... V....

    damnnnnn i don’t remember this being this trash

  86. B.... M....

    That quincy jones interview brought me here

  87. J.... ....

    This sounds like a xerox machine singing PYT and then Thicke actually sings the song.. then.. back comes the Xerox machine.. lmao..

    J.... ....

    Jayoinavation funny thing is that tpain is actually the best singer of the two

    J.... ....

    Y'all are killing me! 😂😂😂

  88. i.... ....

    Too much autotune, Tpain is a beast but this song was horribly produced.
    Q take this L.

  89. J.... F....

    Qunicy Jones Vulture interview brought me here. This song is certified basura.

    J.... F....

    Justin Freeman Haha!!

  90. I.... A....

    This is atrocious

  91. M.... M....

    This is fucking horrible.

  92. A.... B....

    Who else here from the Quincy Article?

    A.... B....

    me. this would sound better if t-pain didnt autotune his voice. robin killed it

    A.... B....

    Alex Benjamin I didn’t even know there was an article on this. I heard this version on Spotify

  93. P.... ....

    Ouch...

  94. Y.... ....

    More Robin. T-Pain only on the hook and adlibs. This is chaotic.

  95. A.... T....

    this hurt my soul

  96. g.... c....

    Vulture article brought me here

    g.... c....

    Yup, me too. What a terrible version

    g.... c....

    Me too! Jones told them that if you're going to do this make it better than the first time. Pain should have listened to the one with the musical talent, himself.

    g.... c....

    Me too 😂

    g.... c....

    Me too! Yes, this is a mistake and Michael would be turning in his grave

  97. B.... F....

    Quincy Jones is disappointed by this.

    B.... F....

    Benjamin Filbert why did he allow release

    B.... F....

    T Pain said he didn’t want to do it lol Quincy forced him

    B.... F....

    BULLSHIT

  98. C.... C....

    Tpain Rock this song
