So Bad was seen as a failure by some media/people whatever because it failed to reach sales numbers of thriller but was it really that far behind?
Thriller was released in 1982 and till 1984 it sold truckloads, how does bad compare to this? How much did had the album sold after the bad tour ended in 1989? Was it really that far behind thriller after 2 to 3 years of being released?
Singles wise the bad album outperformed Thriller based on chart statistics so I think it's not outrageous to think the bad singles outsold the thriller singles.
The Bad tour was also more successful as the victory tour and it promoted the bad songs much better.
