40 Years Ago - 1984 Rockwell released his debut album Somebody's Watching Me.
The song of Motown founder Berry Gordy, who changed his name to Rockwell to not have the Gordy influence.
The title track was a massive hit.
Michael Jackson sings the chorus. While working on the song in the studio, Rockwell got the idea to get Michael Jackson to sing on the track. Without indicating his plans, Kennedy picked Jackson up and drove him into the studio. Once Jackson was in the studio, Kennedy asked him to record the chorus with him. Jackson agreed.
A remake of The Beatles song "Taxman" was the third single and didn't chart.
