Jackson sings about escapism on previously unreleased song

A clip of a previously unreleased, 25-second snippet, Michael Jackson song has hit the net, and it feels eerie. In the song "A Place With No Name," the late King of Pop sings about his desire to travel to a mysterious locale: "Take me to a place without no name."

It is not clear when the song was recorded or if it is referring to a heaven-like utopia or a remote getaway. Years ago, America's manager reportedly approved Michael's "A Place With No Name." Jim Morey, America's current manager who also represented Michael in the late '80s and early '90s, told TMZ that the band supported Michael's rendition.

"The band was honored that Michael chose to do their song and they hope it becomes available for all Michael's fans to hear."

Japan's "Iron Man" quits, at 81

Japanese marathon runner Keizo Yamada has hung up his sneakers at the grand old age of 81 - although he could be tempted back to run the odd half marathon. Yamada, who represented Japan at the 1952 Helsinki Olympics and won the Boston Marathon the following year, said the time was right for him to "scale back" on his running.

Dubbed "Iron Man," Yamada ran three marathons this year, including his 19th appearance in Boston, and completed the Tokyo Marathon in a time of five hours, 34 minutes and 50 seconds. Kokichi Tsuburaya put the sport on map in the Japan by taking bronze in the men's marathon at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics.
