"Will You Be There"[a] is a song by American singer and songwriter Michael Jackson which was released on June 28, 1993 by Epic Records as the eighth single from his eighth studio album, Dangerous (1991). Jackson wrote and produced the song with additional production from Bruce Swedien. Originally debuted at MTV's 10th anniversary special, the song gained recognition over a year and a half later due to its appearance on the soundtrack to the 1993 film Free Willy of which it is the main theme. With the album version clocking in at seven minutes and 41 seconds, it is the longest song in Michael Jackson's solo discography.
"Will You Be There" became yet another successful single from Dangerous, peaking at numbers seven and six on the US Billboard Hot 100 and Cash Box Top 100, selling 1,000,000 copies and earning a platinum certification. Outside of the United States, "Will You Be There" peaked within the top ten of the charts in Belgium, Canada, the Netherlands, New Zealand, the Republic of Ireland, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. The accompanying music video for the song was directed by Vince Patterson.
