I take any day Hot Street than MITM, that would be awesome to hear Hot Street in the movie.We’ve not even had MITM in the trailers yet people demanding hot street be in the movie
That shit got left off Thriller for a reason back in 1982.
I don't think he hated touring back then. He was definitely pressured doing Victory Tour. At the time a solo tour would have made more sense for his career.
Tbh Hot Street sounds very dated compared to Billie Jean
No I don’t.
This would have been a good post for the rumours and spoilers thread, no?
I wouldn’t believe it tbh, most likely a fake article
As would majority of the posts in here.
I would guess Thriller being Halloween themed has something to do with it. Old Christmas songs by José Feliciano, Johnny Mathis, & Paul McCartney hit the Top 10 every year. But when was the last time they got airplay for a new track? All 3 of them still release albums.
I haven't seen any since the other thread was created.
They do but there is usually less content nowdays. The new Superman movie from last year has good extras in my opinion. I don't know if this is the case always but DVDs seem to only have the movie. Extras are for Blu-Ray/4K.
With the weak music that's currently in the charts, it would be easier than ever for Michael to get into the charts.
In the teaser, Hot Street is pinned to the bulletin board alongside Billie Jean and Beat It. This shows that the song is not entirely meaningless.
Yeah, just release a soundtrack with a million spoken segues from the film around 30 seconds each and they will all count as 1 play on streaming charts!
A song could chart at #99 on the Hot 100, but that doesn't mean it will get Top 40 radio airplay. Older artists do sometimes get airplay for new songs on Adult Contemporary & Adult R&B stations. Anyway, having a hit today doesn't really mean the same thing as it did decades ago. Since it's more based on streaming instead of people buying a a 45 record single. Drake has over 300 songs chart on the Hot 100 (pop chart) in Billboard, more than anyone else in history. I doubt anybody can name all of them & its unlikely the general public has even heard most of Drake's "hits". Every song on an album can chart at the same time if the act is very popular, it's not only radio singles. If Drake or Taylor Swift had those multiple 5 second interludes Janet Jackson had on her albums, those would chart for them, even though they're not really a song. The 1993 janet. album has 27 tracks, plus an unlisted hidden song.
During the phone leaks released recently he seemed to talk tours in general, if I remember correctly for him it was a waste of time because most shows would be lost, he have compared that to movies, I don't think that changed something to be in solo or not, Bad was basically the same thing that the Victory but less good and extented to 2 years, he disliked to be forced to be in hotel etc...
Maybe the first leg was like Victory Tour but it was very different after it. I think think he performed much better on Bad Tour.
Disagree with you, everything were better in Victory tour, Michael was in his prime, his moonwalk was vastly better, the late legs for bad were not too different too, that still 70% the same thing, that also this moment he have begun to do playback in tour.
I completely disagree about moonwalk. I don't think it looked very impressive on Victory Tour but it did improve during the tour (compare Kansas to later shows). Then it got better on Bad Tour 87 leg but still wasn't the best and he finally perfected it in 88. Just my opinion.
I hate his moonwalk in Bad tour he was forced and heavier, in Victory he seem to fly lol, agree to disagree here, imo it's night and day.
I’m not talking in terms of releasing now, I’m saying the song wasn’t strong enough for Thriller.
