If the next couple announced songs are tracks that have already been leaked. Don't freak out. It's almost funny how many pages are complaints about leaked songs being on vs. the volume of comments when an unheard song is announced.

I don’t mind leaked songs
It’s not the estates fault that these songs got out

I think like two people have complained about there being leaked songs included. Majority of complaints were about them re-selling us songs that have already been released.

We can get one more unheard song (if we are lucky)
 
I only have TGIM demo on a single cd somewhere in the basement... I had ripped it to my itunes from the cd back in the days, but then my pc broke down and I lost the song in my library when I got a new PC and got iTunes installed again.

And TGIM demo can not be bougt on iTunes - is it available on Spotify? - or other streaming sites?

I hope TGIM demo will be released - maybe not on disc 2, but then on a single if a single is released. I miss TGIM solo version on my phone.

I would be very happy if Starlight and TGIM demo is announced.

“Stand Tall” was never recorded. “Spice of Life” likely wasn’t either.

“Groove of Midnight” is from the BAD era, and according to Matt Forger wasn’t recorded.

Matt Forger actually said they couldn't find a tape with vocals. I assume a recorded version with MJ vocals does exist.

They also had no success in finding a tape with vocals in case of JNVPLFDN. Therefor the track on Bad25 is sourced from a 10"-acetate.
 
I have a theory that Groove Of Midnight is the last Rod Temperton written song Mike recorded.

If you listen to the snippet we have, when Michael and Rod talk, Rod says Mike's hair has grown since he last saw him. Rod also says he last saw MJ in October, so you'd assume this recording takes place in early 1987. Given Rod's surprise at how quick it's grown

I'd assume Mike recorded the song, because in the snippet it sounds like he is recording the chorus backing vocals, when you compare it to Siedah's released version. I doubt he record the backing vocals and not the lead vocals. But that's a guess on my part

I love MJ's raw vocals in the snippet we have but I wouldn't say the song is a strong demo to be honest, Siedah's version is a little bit filler

I've never heard the conversation between mj and rod, only the song vocals. Do you think you could give a link to it?

Have to think if somebody was able to contact Siedah, she would know if there was a fully recorded MJ version. I'm sure she would've heard it before releasing her own version.
 
Track 17 is Thursday’s announcement I think. If it’s Sunset Driver, that user who posted the YouTube tracks is right.

But I thought the 1982 version was already released on TUC. So why would they re-release?

I always suspected that Michael wasn’t recording it in the leaked clip, but he just spontaneously sang a bit of it while the tape was running. Similar to when he randomly started singing his “P.Y.T.” demo during a Dangerous Tour rehearsal.

But then, why would Rod Temperton be present at that recording session? Just to present the track?

Same reason the Estate released The Way You Love Me, Streetwalker and Fly Away even though they were already released before. Probably.

To me, it seems like he recorded it. I'm assuming it would be a rough demo, maybe with just a piano? But with Rod being there in the studio, I think there's a demo.

I’m pretty sure (and I may be wrong here) MJ says “Roddie” in “Free,” a song Rod had zero involvement in. Maybe he was just there?

I’m spitballing here of course. I just find it odd that Matt Forger would say it was never recorded when he was one of the most present people for the Bad sessions.

Did Matt Forger also not remember I'm So Blue before Bad 25? It is odd Matt doesn't recall it

Not saying you're wrong mate, you're the expert on unreleased MJ on here in my book

I think it's good that he didn't share it with others, because it's exactly the same as with the leaked things, it's just the nicest and most exciting thing when a song is announced that has never been heard, so from that perspective it's very good that this song was not shared and now we have a big surprise

He says "Ronnie". It's Ronnie Foster. I think he plays keyboards. https://www.instagram.com/p/B1w4eiPi9ay/?hl=en
