One Day in Your Life (album)


One Day in Your Life is a compilation released by Michael Jackson's former label Motown Records, consisting of both solo and Jackson 5 tracks, released on March 25, 1981. It was the first Jackson album released in the 1980s. Two million copies were sold worldwide. Most of the tracks are from his fourth studio album, Forever, Michael. The other songs were taken from The Jackson 5 releases to pad the album's running time. Motown later admitted that the album was just a quick cash boost generating from the success of Jackson's Off the Wall album.
The title track became a worldwide hit, especially in the UK.
