I Can’t Help It

 

• First appeared on: Michael Jackson: Off The Wall (1979)
• Trivia Other songs by Michael Jackson and/or The Jackson 5 that Prince has covered live include Shake Your Body (Down To The Ground), Don’t Stop ’Til You Get Enough and I Want You Back. Since Esperanza Spalding has been covering I Can’t Help It in her own shows since 2009, however, this choice of cover could be considered hers rather than Prince’s.
