The Discussion of MJ's Unreleased Tracks

No? The version on T40 is the final version lol
The demo only leaked on the internet
The final version also leaked, in much, much lower quality than the demo
Then the final version got released on T40
I know I’m talking about the DEMO, never mentioned the final product, or meant it. I never even meant to include the song on my list, I just forgot to delete it

Thanks for reminding me about Thriller 40 I had completely forgotten about it.
Wasn't the MJ estate essentially bullied by the public into changing the artwork šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

If I recall correctly before they changed it they said the new logo was a modern update to try and justify it. As if the artwork needed changing. Speaks to their entire philosophy regarding MJ and his art.

I keep forgetting they actually went ahead and used it for the vinyl release.

Jesus tonight....
 
Is there a possibility that Luciano Pavarotti and MJ made a song together, the concert with friends didn't happend at the time due to Prince beign sick, but I wonder how about the possible collaboration...
 
Was scrolling through Bill's old posts on X. Can you imagine Earth Song on the Bad album?


The songs that went on the [Bad] album were the ones that achieved a high level of art and craft.
The others simply were part of the process.
We worked fast. Some were good songs that we couldn't produce well in a few days, and maybe could get another try another day.
Some were so early that I had hope for them, but the time was up, and I thought we would carry on next time, like ES and MB.

I remember this image/logo leaked before the estate had announced T40, and even the biggest skeptics among us were like, ā€œThere’s absolutely no way this is real.ā€

This might be the most baffling estate decision to be completely honest. Without question one of the worst design ā€œupdatesā€ I’ve ever seen in any medium.

Let alone the fact that it's probably one of the most instantly recognisable fonts/logos in music history for obvious reasons.

So Earth Song was conceived during the Bad sessions?
 
So instrumental pre-album, vocals post album. Interesting
This is what Bill's written about ES:


I hope I didn't confuse anybody.
[in 1986] Michael screened for me, in his screening room at Hayvenhurst - "The Emerald Forest"
Which was his way of asking me to prepare for Earth Song, which barely started at Hayvenhurst, with John Barnes just playing the 2 chords on piano.
Later, Michael screened "To Kill a Mockingbird" with Gregory Peck. His way of giving me meaning for the future song "Black or White"

Both of these VHS tapes I still have.

BTW. no song was written - but the 3rd VHS he gave me was "This is Elvis"

You all should watch it.
