Songs that Lisa Marie Presley sang for Michael Jackson

“Storm & Grace” is the third and newest studio album by Lisa Marie Presley, Michael Jackson’s wife, released on May 15 this year.

Critics have described this album as her strongest work. Her first album, titled To Whom It May Concern, was released in 2003, and her second album, titled Now What, came out in 2005. After its release, Storm & Grace entered the Billboard charts, ranking at number 45 among the top 200 albums, and it reached number 21 on the Billboard Rock Albums chart. In its first week, the album sold 9.115 thousand copies. Her current husband, Michael Lockwood, played guitar on this album.

Lisa Marie’s new album has eleven tracks, and some fans believe that three songs from this album directly refer to her former husband, Michael Jackson. The song “Over Me,” which some believe is about Michael’s marriage to Debbie Rowe:

"I’ve seen his face, it’s not that beautiful / I’ve seen you with him and I know that part is played better than me / He’s taken my place, and it’s hard to see you’ve moved on."

“I Was Wrong”

“If I told the truth / you wouldn’t believe me / I always thought I wasn’t in love / I was wrong / he always loved me / when I told the truth / I never believed him / he said he didn’t think I was in love with him / but he was wrong / I’m in love with him / but he’s gone now / he was wrong.”

“Just A Dream”

“Was it here last night / we fell in love again / was it only a dream / I’ve never been as happy as the day we fell in love / it wasn’t a dream / I don’t want to open my eyes / so we can fall in love again in a dream.”

Lisa Marie, the daughter of Elvis Presley, married Michael in 1994. Some believe that, as a member of the Church of Scientology, she was trying to get Michael to join this church—and this is a claim she has always denied. The church has gained a bad reputation for the mistreatment and abuse of its members, but still many famous people such as Tom Cruise and John Travolta are members. The church’s bad behavior has gone so far that one former member asked Tom Cruise’s wife, Katie Holmes, to stop her relationship with Tom Cruise because of her daughter. The two separated some time ago.

Many also believe that this is the reason behind Michael and Lisa Marie’s divorce. It has been said that the church does not allow its members to have children with people who are not members of the church. In interviews, Lisa Marie has referred to Michael’s desire to become a father and his opposition to this wish. After separating from Lisa in 1996, Michael married Debbie Rowe and had two children with her.

Lisa said in her interview with Oprah that she separated from Michael in order to put pressure on him and, as a result, make him follow her—but Michael did not. Lisa also compared Michael to an opiate that made her happy and gave her energy.

“He was incredible. He was an extremely dynamic person. If you were around him and he showed you who he really was—if he showed you his real self—you’d get high. I’ve never felt that kind of intoxication with anyone else in my life except my father. He was my drug. I’ve never been intoxicated by anything else like that. I wanted to stay with him forever.”

For years, Lisa Marie was a follower of the Church of Scientology and supported it, but it has recently been reported that she has distanced herself from the church. According to people close to her, she has pushed away many of the people who once interfered in her life and whom Lisa trusted, and she has cut ties with them. The Church of Scientology is known for interfering in the personal lives of its members. It is also believed that the church caused Lisa to stay away from the world of music for years.

Roger Friedman wrote that Lisa Marie appears to be singing lyrics in the music video for her song You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet, which is a medley from her new album, and that the lyrics seem to refer to Scientology. He says, “I can’t be what I’m not / when you get tired of this path you have to change it.” The video shows her next to a lake, and Lisa throws objects into the water, including a teddy bear, which could be seen as a symbol of her mother. Her mother is still a member of the Church of Scientology, and some believe she played a significant role in Lisa’s and Michael’s divorce.
