This Place Hotel
"This Place Hotel" (originally named "Heartbreak Hotel") is a 1980 song by the Jacksons, written by Michael Jackson. While his brothers did not sing background vocals, they were credited with playing percussion on the album while brother Tito contributed a guitar solo. The song has a tempo of 98 beats per minute, making it notably slower than many of the other disco-based songs on the album. In the song, the protagonist speaks of a time when ten years ago, he took his girlfriend to a hotel for a romantic night—only to find out that it was designed specifically to break couples up.

Chart success The song reached No. 22 on the ''Billboard'' pop singles chart and No. 2 on the R&B singles chart. "This Place Hotel" was the group's second biggest single off their ''Triumph'' album, behind "Lovely One". The song ...
