Album of the day - Michael Jackson (Bad)

Wasn't he releasing singles from it 2 years after its release? Unheard of nowadays.

I'm not sure about the original LP content being 2 years after but the song Leave Me Alone definitely came out in 1989 on the CD version I believe and that was 2 years after the original release

He released 'I just can't stop loving you' on 20th July 87 and the last release was 'Liberian girl' on July 3rd 89. That's some going but he had that kind of pull, he owned the 80s imo.
 
I'm bad I'm bad I'm real real bad.

No shit.


Loved Thriller but didn't like anything on this record. Crap.

Correct, literally just checked it a few minutes ago haha! Ye, not many artists would take a 5 year gap and then disperse the singles of that new album out over 2 years after coming off the success of an album like Thriller. Anyone can put up what they want, MJ was the ultimate showman and like you said owned the 80's but what's interesting to me is that he isn't often the vocal point of 80's nostalgia like you'd think he should be and I feel part of the reason is his music is often timeless and you don't automatically think 80's when you hear his stuff from that time period.

Just because you didn't like it, doesn't make it crap, there are some exceptional vocals on this album and yet again infectious bass lines and melodies.
 
Amazingly talented dancer, singer, songwriter.
I saw MJ, Whitney and Prince in the 80's, all in their prime. So sad that all three of them have gone now, in whatever circumstances they died.
