"Ben" by Michael Jackson
yes he didDid he?the song ben was not written by Michael Jackson. It was written by 2 guys one of which was Don Black. Ben was written for the Movie sequel of "Willard", which was titled "Ben in 1972. The song was written for Donny Osmond and it was decided by Black to let Michael try and the rest is history.So, if Michael Jackson had a rat named Ben, it was well after the song was written and the song had no initial ties to Jackson... If you don't believe me, check out this link that also explains that Don Black wrote the James Bond Theme "Diamonds are Forever"http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=1408
