Heartbreak Hotel appreciation

How about his voice in Much Too Soon?

1981 version? Hasn't been released yet.

No, 1995. I was just curious whether those later-day vocals would be up to snuff in F&M’s point of view.

I’m trying to determine whether the ‘heartbreak hotel’ was a refuge for the broken hearted, or a place of punishment for the heartbreakers. maybe both?

Or maybe it was punishment for the broken hearted?

I love Heartbreak Hotel! Years ago when I took Costume Design in college, one of the projects had the option to design costumes for a music video (had to be a song that doesn't have a video), and I did mine with Heartbreak Hotel. I loved working on it so much.

Wow! Sounds like a cool project.

Potentially controversial take: the “Heartbreak Hotel” bass line is the only one that could rival “Billie Jean” as MJ’s best.

Who Is It and Hollywood Tonight come close. But this is a good one.

Aren’t we forgetting Smooth Criminal?

Edit: Just came to think about that Off the Wall (the album) has several contenders. Workin’ Day and Night and Get on the Floor is hard to beat for bass.
