The Discussion of MJ's Unreleased Tracks

Just listened to ‘Ghost of another lover’ again for the first time in ages. If that song ever comes out I will be the happiest man alive (although I say that about a lot of unreleased songs lol).

It’s such a mysterious track tho, who did he record it with? I know Thom Russo, but there had to be other guys in the room the moment he put vocals on it. Still very intrigued by it.

If I even have something like that, this is my HOLY GRAIL !!!

It seems to resemble Mind is the Magic closest in terms of sound, in my opinion, especially the use of sound effects. It certainly doesn’t sound like it was recorded after 1990, so perhaps Loren was involved in production?

That being said, I seem to recall Loren stating on the MJCast that he wasn’t particularly involved in Mind is the Magic, and that it was mostly an MJ-led production. So the same could be said here. I certainly don’t think GOAL is written and produced solely by Thom Russo, it’s got MJ’s (circa 1989) prints all over it.
 
Did Brad really call "Speechless" "candy ass"? Lol I thought he liked that song (EDIT: Ah, I'm thinking of Bruce Swedien)

It's definitely one I've been waiting to hear in hq for a long time. I think it's unlikely MJ recorded any more vocals for it but I would definitely like to hear the mix he worked on before he passed.

Are you referring to the CD mentioned in the court documents? Mix 7 is the final mix that Michael Prince did. It's a different arrangement of instruments and background vocals. The lead vocals are still the same. It's a very "pumping" song.

When I say "I am the source," that says little. Michael Prince can answer your question if you want definitive proof. GOAL is my holy grail, and I will protect it for as long as I can.

So the lead vocals are the same as in the LQ leak we already have? I was hoping that MJ recorded proper vocals for that song
 
It's probably been discussed to death, but do we know if Throwing Your Life Away is actually out there in traders/leakers circles?
 
@mjfan_93: Indeed. The lead vocals are the same. It’s a very complex song. I don't know if there are any more mixes. As far as I know, Mix 7 is the last one Michael Prince did.

The LQ YouTube video doesn't do it justice.

@innuendo141 I have the full-length '88 demo. I heard that some French people have a copy as well. But I don't know who exactly.

@Saka21, I had to scroll up pretty far to find out who that person is, but it's definitely not me. Interesting name.

Interesting. Where did you come across it? Are you a trader or something?

Any solid info on who's written & composed goal?
 
I don't want to offend the collectors (they paid for it after all) but it's such a shame that they could buy something really rare and probably the Michael Estate itself might not have it

The estate has everything you could possibly need. You can't imagine how many demos, mixes, and masters there are. The collectors are the ones with the copies.

Am I missing something? Matt Forger isn't in charge of the vault, as far as I know.

He was tasked with going through the 2track & multitrack tapes. this was around 2011 iirc.

Responsible for the vault is Branca's paralegal (her name escapes me atm) edit: Karen Langford it is
