That whole album's great. It's probably my favorite solo album of his.

OTW is my favorite MJ solo album

LMAO!

Captain EO came out in '86 BUT it was filmed in late '85 Just thought I'd add my 2 cents

Just wanted to throw that out there. By the time '86 came around, his hair was longer

This is from July 1986 when Joe had an artist showcase in LA for groups he signed to his management including The Newtrons

So its safe to say the photo is from 1985, thanks!

Musically is beautiful and his vocal performance, butthose lyrics... not that great, Stevie missed there.

They are definitely not and your heart knows that.

Lol, I always loved the whole song, vocals and lyrics. I'd love to hear the original, I reckon it's a little more jazzy and upbeat like the versions Stevie performed live. I believe Quincy Jones' production gave the song a darker and moodier element, which actually works really well.

I'm scratching my head at those saying Stevie wasn't a good songwriter.

July '86 would make sense to me. Hair is longer than in '85 and he looks ready to do the video for BAD.

It does work great, i just wish much better lyrics.

I'm not saying that, i say some of his lyrics aren't, specially talkin about this song.
