let's see what happens in 2022 for Bad. good lord! i can't believe it been that long. time sure do files.
I don't see why not... they release a greatest hits album every year with the same songs on themi don't think they can do that either. i know each bad tour had something different in it but releasing the same tour over and over again probably won't work but what do i know fans probably would buy all the bad tours if they did release them all. i think i probably would. especially if it's for limited of time.
i do want see more BAD stuff and tours. i hope we get some in the future and before we all leave this earth.

yes Michael did a lot of covers. i didn't know he did fun in the summertime.
Was it recorded for thriller/bad?If I recall it worked during Invincible or after, & was almost in Xscape

If MJ really did go to the studio and re-recorded the songs for TII - they should NO doubt be released...
I can't believe - and can not understand - why they are not already released back then as a TII live album...
Can we have a poll or something on this? I'd love to know who's pre-ordered this set, who intends to order and who isn't interested.

He mentions the idea he presented to Michael during his visit in Hong Kong in Oct. of 1987, an album of Cover songs.
I honestly feel like this would be a really good idea for the Estate, since there goal is to get more & more people to listen to Michael, they can attract new people with songs they already recognize. It's unsure how many covers Michael did in his whole solo career (Smile, Come Together, & Hot Fun In The Summertime are a few that come to mind), but this could be a good collaborative effort with the Motown folks, which Michael & his brothers have done multiple covers for ("Yesterday" by The Beatles, "Thank You Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin" by Sly & The Family Stone, "Reach Out and Touch Somebody's Hand" by Diana Ross are a few I know of)
he even re-recorded SIM for TII.
does anybody have the source of who said that? i can't find it anymore... afaik it was said on some radio interview.

It was never meant to be a serious idea, and Michael Jackson also immediately rejected that particular idea that he heard from John Branca's mouth in 1987.
Also, there have been no serious discussions from the Estate about considering releasing a cover album, for two main reasons.
The first reason is that there are very few unheard covers that Michael Jackson recorded in his solo career that in no way can fill a possible, cover album.
Even those unheard covers that he allegedly recorded, they have yet to be confirmed by a reliable source.
The second reason is that the Estate knows that a cover album although it might attract new people to his music, yet such an album cannot really attract the attention of Michael Jackson’s fans who are the ones who bring the largest profits for the Estate (because his fans constitute the biggest part of the overall buying demand, when it comes to Michael Jackson's future releases).

No way I am gonna buy it.
