Thank You for Life was played at the 1984 deposition? I always thought the only unreleased song played was The Toy

Correct. Blues Away, Thank You For Life, That's What You Get (For Being Polite) and Why Can't I Be all share similar chords to The Girl is Mine and were played to demonstrate Michael used the progression years prior to TGIM

"Oh, yes, lots of other songs...They are mainly the same chords that I use in so many...of my songs in the past, that I have written. That's What You get for Being Polite is one. Others would be, Why Can't I Be, Thank You For Life, all these have the main - the same type of chords as The Girl Is Mine" - Michael 1984
 
"He filmed most of the session...He had a film crew there, lighting crew, cameraman. Christopher Cross stopped by, Dick Clark came in, Lionel Richie came in, the engineer, Quincy Jones, my sister (LaToya) came; my mother came. There was a lot of traffic" - Michael 1984

I wonder if we'll ever get the full footage from Paul

They really should have made a music video of The Girl Is Mine from the footage they had of the recording sessions to promote Thriller 40, not a huge investment on their part and it would have generated a bit of buzz around it.

Speaking of recording sessions & music vids: the snippets of MJ & Siedah of "singing" together as shown in the Bad25 documentary, it's clearly a mockup. Most likely shot for a music video that never got released. I wonder if its editing was ever completed back in the day.

Does footage from the actual recording session of them singing together exist?

Most likely from the Bad documentary that we'll never get.

And they had just re-released I Just Can't Stop Loving you as a single to promote Bad 25 back then, such wasted potential...

Yeah all those clips where for that & i dont understand why its not discussed here more often. They waste all the potential. Im just not understanding WHAT IS THE REASON WE CANT HAVE THOSE GEMS. LIKE ARE THEY REALLY JUST GONNA LET THEM ROT AWAY? Smh I cant wait til JB is GONE!!!

What a great move it would be, if Rami Malek would have a brief cameo in the biopic

oh, I quite like this idea! It's not the most important moment in Michael's life but, if there's going to be two films, they could spare a few minutes for this. There was a nice affection between Freddie and Michael, it seems. For people who don't know much about Michael's story it would be something unexpected. And it's a legit part of Michael's story, not something being artificially shoehorned in for extra ticket sales. As if they would need that, lol. :ROFLMAO:

The Johnny Cash bits in the Bob Dylan biopic worked really well. It wasn't 100% accurate but it didn't need to be for the purposes of the story they were telling.

and Estates of MJ & FM would agree on releasing SoS as an accompanying single with Sony/Epic.

Not really bothered about this, tbh, but ... Freddie in the biopic, that could work.

Ironically enough, I had that same realization when I re-watched Bad25 just two days ago.
