The Discussion of MJ's Unreleased Tracks

Clay7 said:
I find it really interesting that the ending links with The Addams Family, makes me curious how that whole collaboration really happened because (to my knowledge) this "Is It Scary" film had no relation to the only known Addams Family collab "Family Thing" and "Is It Scary" the song reuses chord progression from "Family Thing". It makes me wonder if Is It Scary was the final evolved version of Family Thing intended for the Addams Family film.

The film itself was set in the Addams Family universe and intended to be a sort of tie-in. Family Thing probably would've made the soundtrack to the movie had the allegations not happened.

Ghosts and Is It Scary are both from 1993. Is It Scary was not finished due to allegations and MJ told the film makers he would not be able to finish the song in time for the planned November 1993 film release. Is It Scary was reworked again in 1994/95 during HIStory while Ghosts was polished up on tour in 1996/97.

The song "Is It Scary" was incorporated after the premiere of Ghosts.

According to Shana, verse lyrics to "Family Thing":

''Squeeze the trigger til' I'm dead,
The blood is running good and red,
And the pain is quite enormous,
Also I wouldn't be human if I laid here and ignored this,
But I'm hard as nails.''

Ghosts [the song] was planned to be on the greatest hits album as well according to Teddy

Dates don't matter guys.

For All Time is a phenomenal song; does it matter when it was written? No of course not.

But Michael said it was an original outtake from Thriller and that certainly speaks to how special it was to him so that's what matters, how special the song was to Michael.

This was glaring sarcasm, I hope everyone got that

Also 1 more question,

For the “Lying to Myself” [V1] entry in the dangerous section of the chart, it says that snippets of the song can be heard in The Detail’s retrospective video, but I can’t seem to find where in the video it can be heard, do you know when is the timestamp when it can be heard?
