I am referring to MJ’s greatest hits album ‘Decade’ that was about to get a release in the early ‘90s.
There is no doubt that MJ recorded few new songs during that period with plans to include them in a new release (more likely on a compilation album, entitled ‘Decade’
.
Those new songs were supposedly included on the so-called ‘Dangerous Flight Promo CD’. It seems that those new songs, among others, were essentially the demos/early versions of some tracks that later made the ‘Dangerous’ album (for example, ‘Who Is It’, ‘Black or White’, ‘Heal the World’.
The story behind the ‘Decade’ album seems to be still a bit vague, for example:
Is there any official track listing of those greatest hits (from his up to that point adult, solo career) that would have appeared on the ‘Decade’?
Is there any official information regarding its cover & art work?
Is there any connection between the greatest hits that were about to make the ‘Decade’ with the ones that eventually made the ‘HIStory’ album (disc one)?
Is there any connection between the ‘Decade’ release & the release of the 1.000 MJ’s numbered, authentic ‘Artist of the Decade Awards’ that ‘Platinum Limited Editions’ released at that time?
I am not complaining, of course, that ‘Decade’ never happened because thankfully MJ shelved it in favor of the ‘Dangerous’ album.
