Quick question but has anyone tried asking Damien what eras Be Me 4 A Day, Sister Sue, etc belong to?

Yes, I asked, and he doesn't know.

The only thing known about Sister Sue is that it was done before 1993, but after 1977, because of the MIJAC publishing

Where did you find the Mijac reference for this song?

i haven't seen any substantial evidence suggesting to me that Be Me is a real track. I'm aware of the BMI registration but i need more than that tbh. The eras for both are unknown.

I did a lot of research on "Be Me 4 A Day." I'm not sure it was recorded as a song. I concluded it was from the Invincible era. It can't be from the Bad era.

Most of the songs from the 1993 deposition were registered under MIJAC in '84 with a few exceptions. And alot of those track originated in the 1970s

I think all songs that were name checked in 1993 did exist in some form prior to the day of filed suit against MJ (November 17, 1987).

POP/ROCK - Nov. 19, 1987

Three songwriters who claim their material was misappropriated for the USA for Africa theme "We Are The World" and other songs filed suit Tuesday in Los Angeles against Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie, accusing them of copyright infringement.

I noticed a pattern on the tracker. Just about ever song that has a medal, trophy, or trash can next to them, were "leaked" by Motif (including the memes). Some of them that have medals haven't been meme'd though, such as Seven Digits, Crack Kills, Janet and MJ Duet, Homeless Bound, BOTDF demo with Sunset Driver lyrics, GOAL 2009, among others. I could just be over thinking this, but I just wanted to point out the pattern I noticed

Yeah i looked into BM4AD as well and all I can find is one single random obscure asf musician who has virtually no credits or identity that I can find saying it exists and has refused to elaborate on details. I genuinely don't believe 100% the song exists because the sources are dubious af.

Homeless Bound has a medal? lmfaooo that song is not good.

because an alternate version (the clip compilation) was serviced to the USA while the actual video was confined to international countries after its initial airing (if it even aired at all) - possibly due to MJ's dissatisfaction with how it turned out.

It was never considered lost, just extremely rare and hard to come by.

The original video was re-edited after its premiere, as per All the Songs:
The short film was shown exclusively on the British TV channel BBC2, but Michael Jackson rejected the final result and demanded that it be withdrawn immediately from all program schedules. A new version was edited and included in the compilation Dangerous: The Short Films. The single was released in the United States in March 1993, without a video broadcast on TV.
There's only a couple of differences between each version, though. First, when MJ gets up from the couch around 0:50, and the final ending shot (originally lasting longer).
 
He prolly is just giving this info to then make troll mixes of the songs lmao
(If dark lady gets a troll mix it would be still a cool leak due to us not getting any HQ vocal snippets of that song)

Something I really would love to know and hear are the versions of APWNN that Michael worked on after Invincible, as I honestly can't imagine what he thought needed to be added to the song

the one released is the 2008 mix, not the original demo which is close to 10min, compared to the 2003-4 mix, drums are the most notable difference

Assuming all of the info given here is legit this is such a cool leak, but this opens up more questions than it actually answers lol. Why was "Red Eye" and "Boy No" remixed in 2010? Was it for the "Michael" album? Why would they touch up an instrumental and a mumbled demo? Do more complete versions exist or did the Estate feel like they really didn't have a lot of material left to work with back in 2010?
