Sound Effects in MJ Songs
There's broken glass in In The Closet. (watch out! :P)
There are crickets in Unbreakable.
Anyone have the reason for/meaning behind these additions to the songs?
What are some other MJ songs with sound effects in them?
(I love the crickets.)

Re: Sound Effects in MJ Songs
There was a rare Thriller acetate on ebay a while ago, one of the tracks was Thriller without the sound effects

Stranger in Moscow - Rain?
Does that count. There is no underlying rhythm in the rain like in the other songs...but hey.
If I never knew you I'd be safe but half as real
Never knowing I could feel a love so strong and true
I'm so grateful to you, I'd have lived my whole life through
Lost forever if I never knew you

Re: Sound Effects in MJ Songs
I understand the sound effects in the other songs. But why the crickets in Unbreakable?
Is it because it's a quiet part of the song? lol

Heartbreak Hotel
In Heartbreak Hotel, there's a sound like somebody is falling down some stairs or through a ceiling. Plus LaToya screaming and some glass breaking before the guitar solo.

Re: Sound Effects in MJ Songs
There is like humming in 'Heartbreaker', so idk if you would count that. For the most part, I believe these sound effects are just sounds that Michael found interesting. Like I shared before about the humming, Michael was probably walking around, humming and thought it was a good sound to include on a song, and that's why we hear it on 'Heartbreaker'
