But they will get all of those.
It would be weird if the film showed the J5 era - which we know they are going to - and did not refer to this period also being the start of Michael's solo career. It doesn't need to take up much time but I would expect it to be in there. And 'Ben' is a really well-known song.
Would have probably made it, if TGIM hadn't already been released.
what's the matter with that? i mean it's only 9 songs long a short album add one and it's just ten songs.
Because it doesn’t fit on vinyl
mmm but OTW was ten songs
it's the total playtime on each side of the LP that matters
Am I driving you wild?
We'll be lucky if the Estate even writes a post acknowledging that the album exists lmao. It was total radio silence from them when Invincible turned 20.
That's so bad. Album needs more recognition! At least on tiktok or youtube shorts
Still, they never did any anniversary events since 2001! Only Invincible album missed all anniversaries. That's not right. I hope they are planning to make something big in 2026. At least 4K remaster of YRMW with a few remixes would be great. I wonder, can they release some of original songs from Invincible as a single? They released LNFSG and APWNN as signles recently, so maybe they still can release single songs nowadays.
It's obvious they are embarrassed by the album and want to sweep it under the carpet.
Um, what? The industry doesn't release singles any more, they haven't for more than 10 years. Singles simply don't exist.
I'll buy that they have issues with Invincible but what about Dangerous and HIStory? It's like the estate thinks MJ fell off the face of the Earth after Bad

This isn’t exclusive to MJ’s estate. Every artist’s estate only focuses on their artist’s most commercially and/or culturally successful eras. This isn’t an excuse because MJ’s later works are getting a resurgence via social media, but it’s not at all surprising that the Quincy albums are at the forefront of their attention (especially because his ‘90s works are intrinsically connected to the allegations, which they don’t seem keen to acknowledge).I'll buy that they have issues with Invincible but what about Dangerous and HIStory?

We heard the song during his seminar in August ‘25.. when asked why this version sounded different, he said: ‘because it’s my own mix, you see..’. I know this, because I was there..
Why should they do that?
Because the versions that are on streaming services right now sound like shit. The 1988 mix also isn’t available, only the shitty remasters.
You are right in saying that the versions of the Bad album on streaming services right now sound horrible, specifically, only the 2012 remaster is available, however, MIXING and MASTERING aren't the same thing, yes the true 1988 mix isn't available... but the 2012 remaster is the exact same mix by Chris Currell (or at least it contains all the re-recorded elements from his remix.) just mastered like shit, like you said.
y'all see this in French, right? or am I tweaking ?
Paradoxically, the more MJ remains a mainstream figure with wide popularity — which is the point of product like the biopic — the LESS likely we are to get the kind of releases that we as hardcore fans want, because those releases would telegraph that MJ is now a « niche product ».
