E.T The Extra Terrestrial Storybook
1982

 Voici la l'histoire d'E.T raconté par Michael Jackson comme vous ne l'avez jamais entendu.

Michael Jackson raconte l'histoire de E.T., le film de Steven Spielberg sur un 33 tours vinyl. Il y interprète deux versions de la chanson "Someone In The Dark" écrite par Rod Temperton, Alan et Marilyn Bergman.
Hélas ce coffret fut vite retiré des ventes pour une histoire de droits

Ce fameux collector est un coffret de couleur bleu qui contient un livret avec la photo de Michael Jackson en compagnie de E.T ainsi que toute l'histoire de ce célèbre film. Les paroles des deux versions de la chanson Someone In The Dark y figurent également tout comme beaucoup de photos du film. Le coffret contient également un poster de la fameuse photo de Michael Jackson et d'E.T, le 33 tours vinyl avec les deux versions de la chanson ainsi que la narration du film par Michael Jackson et enfin un abonnement au fan-club d'E.T.

Les paroles de Someone In The Dark :

Vous pouvez l'écouter ci-dessus.

(Opening Version)

All alone-wishing on stars,
Waiting for you to find me
One sweet night I knew I would see
A stranger wh'd be my friend

When someone in the dark reaches out to you
and touches off a spark tant comes shining thtough,
It tells you never be afraid.
Then somewhere in your heart you can feel the glow,
A light to keep you warm when the night winds blow.
Like it was written in the stars I knew -
My friend, my someone in the dark was you.

Promise me we'll always be
walking the world together.
Hand in hand where dreams never end,
My star-secret friend and me

When someone in the dark reaches out to you
and touches off a spark tant comes shining thtough,
It tells you never be afraid.
Then somewhere in your heart you can feel the glow,
A light to keep you warm when the night winds blow
Look for the rainbow in the sky!
I believe you an I
Could never really say goodbye-
Wherever you may be,
I'll look up and see
Someone in the dark for me!
Wherever you may be
I'll look up and see
Someone in the dark for me!

(Closing Version)

Though you're gone star-far away
Each time I see a rainbow
I'll remember being with you
Smiles coming through my tears

When someone in the dark reaches out to you
and touches off a spark tant comes shining thtough,
It tells you never be afraid.
Then somewhere in your heart you can feel the glow,
A light to keep you warm when the night winds blow
Look for the rainbow in the sky!
I believe you an I
Could never really say goodbye-
Wherever you may be,
I'll look up and see
Someone in the dark for me!
Wherever you may be
I'll look up and see
Someone in the dark for me!
