What are you guys top ten 'unreleased' songs. 'Unreleased' meaning songs that were never officially released on any studio album.
1. Someone Put Your Hand Out
2. Do You Know Where Your Children Are
3. Got The Hots
4. Beautiful Girl
5. The Way You Love Me
6. Sunset Driver
7. Hot Street
8. We've Had Enough
9. In The Back
10. Niteline
I do have other favorite unreleased songs besides these.
Oh, a lot of Thriller outtakes I see
3. Got The Hots
Yes, how could you? greatest Thriller era track OF ALL TIME
Also I would have made OTW a 9 track album and had taken out Girlfriend/Burn This Disco Out and would place Sunset Driver there instead
That I agree with. I have a soft spot for Sunset Driver. When I see Daft Punk etc. thriving on the charts these days I think Sunset Driver could still blow up to become a great hit with a touch of modern production (but without ruining or disrespecting the original concept). Same with Cheater.

Thriller is an album where I am pretty pleased with the song selection for the album compared to the outtakes. Considering how strong the album is, some of the outtakes from that era are just surprisingly "meh". Very generic 80s songs that would have aged very badly by now, so I'm glad they were not selected for the album. I agree that Got The Hots is better than most outtakes from that era though. Maybe it could have replaced some of Thriller's weaker tracks, but to me it's definitely not up there with such legendary tracks as Billie Jean, WBSS, Beat It or Human Nature.
