Although Invincible has some of my all-time favourites on it, I got to agree when it comes to the whole album in itself!
I wouldn't call it too long tho (as Dangerous and HIStory are actually longer) but a bit dragged especially towards the end. The track-listing for the last 4-5 songs seems a bit messy to me, to that extent that I always had issues memorizing which song was the next coming up, which hasn't happened to any other MJ-Album because you just know the tracklist after the first few listens due to how iconic it is (especially Thriller and BAD)... For me, Invincible would have marked his best album ever, where some unreleased songs put on the album and swopped with others. Xscape, Blue Gangsta, She Was Loving Me and We've Had Enough are all more ,,trademark-MJ'' and fit his past style pretty well with some new features sprinklet in.
I would even go as far in saying that People Of The World could've been Invincible's Heal The World or Earth Song and would continue Michaels tradition to include ballads about nature and the earth, which I actually missed on Invincible, because the only songs coming close to this message are The Lost Children and Cry, but other than that, the message that could've transpired through Invincible was lost for me due to the choice of songs...
But I have to mention that I actually find the intro to You Rock My World pretty entertaining because it's just Michael and Chris having fun... Also the album includes my favourite song of all time, which is Speechless!
