The Discussion of MJ's Unreleased Tracks

So, which unreleased songs songs that we know of (that have not yet leaked) have full vocals and not just 'rambling'?

Depends on what you call full vocals. If we're talking songs with full vocals and complete lyrics, That Girl, Slipped Away, Why Can't I Be, Somewhere in Time, Peter Pan and Where is Love come to mind as they're fully complete and can be mixed and mastered for release.

In the same sentence, we can call DIG full vocals as he does sing throughout the song but not full lyrics and mostly hums and da da dees

If anyone knows anything about "Victory"—what it sounds like or what the lyrics are—please reply. It's one of three songs I'm hoping will be released or leaked someday.🙏🏽

The person who leaked the 1984 moonwalker tapes may have victory. They were planning on releasing another song that Michael played during the recordings until the account closed

Tomboy, Saturday Woman, Pressure, Can't Come Back, She's Got It Baby, 7 Digits and Don't Believe It are all complete as far as I'm aware. Also going to reiterate Bryan claims he has a version of Man in Black with complete vocals, which has been disputed here.

Truth on Youth is a bit contentious. The early version that went up just has LL Cool J vocals, but Brad Sundberg has confirmed Michael raps on the track. Gregg Musgrove claims it's complete enough to be released, but it's vague what that means. Is MJ singing or just rapping?

All The Truth is like To Satisfy You with Bryan on lead and Michael on background.
 
There are a lot of assumptions. Most of them are wrong.

Right now, there are roughly 30 songs with full vocals and multitracks available to rework. No one knows how many more songs are hidden away with collaborators. Those that have recently been partially leaked are not included.

I would estimate that there are between 500 and 1,000 scratch vocals, alternate vocal takes, and alternate mixes.
Michael wrote many more songs. One very well-known person can attest to that.

Just gave it another listen: the first and second verses are scatting/mumbles, the short third verse before the bridge seems to have some lyrics, the bridge and third verse are full. Definitely not fully recorded.

This isn’t the most up to date version tho. Siedah bgvs, that’s actually crazy.

So I suppose that'd be enough for 3-4 more full posthumous albums and Beatles-style boxsets filled with demos and alternate takes (also studio chatter).

Does this include leaked songs (e.g., “If You Don’t Love Me”)?
 
arisenow said:
No.

I presume, since I could only count 19 named songs with full vocals that haven't been leaked ("Chicago 1945," "Get Your Weight Off Of Me"), tangled with issues with The Jacksons ("Buffalo Bill" and "Take My Time"), rights complications with the artists and labels some songs were given to ("Alright Now" and "You're The One"), or outside writers and producers known to have issues with the Estate ("Spice Of Life," "Pressure," "I'm Dreamin'"), the rest are likely unknown titles sourced from the Brian Malouf and/or Thriller sessions.
