Keep in mind that their aim was to sell as many 'BAD' album copies as possible, and even to surpass the sales of the 'Thriller' album.
I'm well aware of MJ's intentions, but I'd argue that the replication of Thriller's format was his undoing for BAD. It is, of course, an exceptional album, but if he (or Quincy) had taken a couple of risks they could've paid off both artistically and commercially
BAD was a victim of the transition between vinyl and CD I think. By the time Dangerous came out it didn't matter that it was a double vinyl because most had transitioned to CD by that point
Speeding up is fine for the single releases, which are the versions played on the radio, but personally I would've preferred it a bit slower for the album.
Disagree. There are a couple of outtakes that are stronger than Just Good Friends
frenzy i am hovering over the ban button right now you did not just say that about Chicago
Honestly i think it would have been present in any of the leaked multitracks for the song if it had been recorded, hopefully i'm wrong though and it was.
Considering most songs recorded for Bad at Westlake were over 8 minutes long I would say yes.
God i really wish Quincy never got his hands on Bad... the only reason Dangerous had such long intros and outros and just long songs in general was because that's how MJ liked to make his music and Quincy basically never allowed it, imagine the Bad album in the same vain as Dangerous... objectively a worse album maybe, but gosh i would personally love it.
Don't forget about the 3rd verse for Get On the Floor, which a lot of people seem to forget about.
I really wish the estate or Sony would release a SDE of Bad some day with all album tracks in their uncut length and at original speed.
This came from the Brad drives?Here's ANOTHER THING that has gone unnoticed in the Febuary Michael Jackson leaks, there are actually unreleased lyrics to an extended 3rd verse of Bad!
"They're Tellin' Me
You're Out of Place
Gonna Track You Down
So Hide Your Face"
Not necessarily! If Iām not mistaken, we have the multitracks of the album mix and the extended dance mix. We donāt have the untouched, complete tracks.
well it was cut, so that prob explains it
I'll look into it. Any other tracks that have lyrics done but no vocals?the AI sounds pretty good with those lyrics.
now imagine if the album mix of HT would get its deserved bridge.
The fact that we dont have to wonder what the songs sound like is kinda wild lolthe AI sounds pretty good with those lyrics.
now imagine if the album mix of HT would get its deserved bridge.
Ah, it was a quick then done in like 30 mins with very short notice with jike. Hey, it adds a bit of variety to the vocals haha.So did I. I guess we read/sang it in the corrected verses
