I remember that in a Rolling Stone article around 1983, the writer lamented that with reference to this song, Jackson was now "wearing tacky green shoes and singing throwaway pop songs - talk about running on empty ...." A clever play on Jackson's own words, but I always find this song appealing, obviously it was quite a departure from his 70's material. Somebody's Baby is a song most guys could identify with.
