One Day in Your Life, though not an official solo release, was issued as a "lost" solo album from Michael Jackson upon its release by Motown Records in 1981. Some called the album a "studio" release, while others call it a compilation of Jackson's mid-1970s recordings when he was between the ages of 15 and 17. In fact, some of the songs were taken from Jackson 5 releases to pad the album's running time. Motown later admitted that the album was 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 United Kingdom.
