Another hypothetical!
(Sorry about the continuous posts regarding Michael's "unreleased" music. I'm going stir crazy because so many albums, movies, and video games are being delayed due to COVID-19, and the email I sent to the Estate suggesting new music to hold us over was promptly [and understandably] rejected. So I have a ton of time on my hands.)
It's an alternate 2020, and the Estate hasn't released a single unheard song from the vault. You finally convince them otherwise, and are put in charge of configuring an album of brand-new material. They give you 21 songs to choose from:

It's an alternate 2020, and the Estate hasn't released a single unheard song from the vault. You finally convince them otherwise, and are put in charge of configuring an album of brand-new material. They give you 21 songs to choose from:
- "This Is It"
- "Hold My Hand"
- "Hollywood Tonight"
- "Best of Joy"
- "Another Day"
- "Behind the Mask"
- "Much Too Soon"
- "Don't Be Messin' 'Round"
- "I'm So Blue"
- "Song Groove"
- "Free"
- "Price of Fame"
- "Al Capone"
- "Love Never Felt So Good"
- "Chicago"
- "Loving You"
- "A Place with No Name"
- "Slave to the Rhythm"
- "Do You Know Where Your Children Are"
- "Blue Gangsta"
- "Xscape"
- You can ONLY choose from the 21 songs listed above; no other leaked tracks or as-yet-unheard titles.
- You can only include up to 12 songs.
- You cannot swap out demo/alternate versions of these songs UNLESS those versions were officially released. So, you can't choose the "Hollywood Tonight" demo over the album version, but you can choose the Throwback Mix. Also, the Xscape "original versions" are all fair game.
- You can configure a box set or compilation package instead of an album if you so desire.
