Little Susie

As an introduction for “Little Susie”, Michael used his own variation of Pie Jesu from Maurice Duruflé’s Requiem.

An inspiration for the song came from an artist called Gottfried Helnwein. Michael admired the artist’s work and had purchased some of his paintings. One of the paintings, Beautiful Victim (below), is credited as having been a leading force in Michael’s creative process in writing the song.

The song is also believed to have been inspired by the murder of a six year old girl, Susan Condry, in 1972. Susan’s father was in a mental institution and her mother was a drug-dealer, and was highly neglectful of Susan. She eventually died from a drug overdose. When the authorities found Susan she was severely malnourished. The girl was sent to live with her grandfather, who molested her. The man appears to have abandoned his granddaughter one night in a drunken rage. When Susan’s body was found at her grandfather’s house, it was clear she had been thrown down the stairs, and it was her skull breaking that killed her. A music box was also found near her body, which explains the intro and outro of Michael’s song.

Michael first began writing the song in 1979. His working titles were “A Baby Smiles”, “Be Not Always”, “In The Life Of Chico” and finally, “Little Suzy”. He recorded the song for the Dangerous album (1991), but left it out. It was finally rerecorded and released in 1995 on the album HISTORY - Past, Present and Future: Book I. The song was orthographically renamed to “Little Susie”.
