The Discussion of MJ's Unreleased Tracks

I’m curious, how well does Water (as well as those other instrumentals made near the time of his death) hold up to today’s music in terms of production? Does it sound like the kind of music that’s being made today or is it a product of its time?

It all sounds like HIStory era MJ production-wise, just more melodic and more pop. So neither of its time (mid-late 2000s) nor current (2020s). Very neutral and timeless instrumentation, not dated.

I have some very serious questions about the real Monster. Are there any instrumental similarities with Threatened? I found information that this song would have evolved into Threatened. And that DeVante Swing would have worked on Monster.

They're nothing alike. ZERO similarities. The Cascio "Monster" is the most similar.

Yeah I think that's possible. I had it in my head that he worked on it before MJ died but wasn't sure if I was mixing it up with something else or not.

Michael worked on it with Neff-U before his death and they added overdubs to a cassette rip of a version from the 1980s. The rip is slightly different than the version played by Sundberg and has complete vocals all the way through.

I remember reading a comment of yours from a while ago and you said that they added synth overdubs on the song, right? That the song sounded more retro. I wonder if Neff-U used that version for his remix made for the Michael album instead of the 1988 mix.

Thanks for your feedback ! Have you heard any other new songs? Do you know if there are any unreleased songs with Babyface? There are rumors about songs "Angel" and "Do You Love Me" without any sources.
 
So throwing your life away have more vocals we did not heard it yet ?

# Tomboy

John Barnes - Facebook 2016

'' 'Tomboy' is a classic mid-'80s, complete with synthesizer drums, lovely strings, a nice guitar riff, and slap bass reminiscent of the 'Captain EO' soundtrack. The song also features a subtle 'ba-da-ba-da-bab-bab' melody which is almost identical to the 'I bet you remember' one in 'Remember the Time,' released on Michael Jackson's 'Dangerous' album six years later.

"Roger played well on Tomboy, but the song was just okay, in my opinion. Michael liked it, but it didn't hold up in comparison to the other music that was available for 'Bad'."..


In the Xscape Origins book,

The song "Tomboy" is described as complete with synth drums, gorgeous strings, and a great guitar riff. A good song by John Barnes, but not enough for the Bad album.

Matt Forger - 2012


"I worked on "Tomboy". It's a very funny subject. Very rhythmic, with lots of character and energy. I remember this song very well and I don't know if it came out somehow..."
"However, “Tomboy” was pretty complete in my opinion, but I’m not 100% sure. This is a fantastic topic and I really hope it gets covered at some point."

Did Michael record lead vocals for it?

Wasn't Be Me 4 A Day first worked on during Bad and then reworked for Invincible?
