I still like it, but I wish that lame intro talking shit was a separate interlude & not part of the track...

Yes. He has a habit of doing that. I didn't need the intro to "Black Or White" or "Will You Be There?" to be a part of the actual song. He also did that on "You Rock My World." Just give me the music!

But, anyway, "In The Closet" is one of my favorites from Dangerous. I had it on repeat not too long ago.

nod At least the "You Rock My World" intro is funny as HELL, just the concept of him competing for a girl is hilarious. Especially the line, "She is BANGIN'!!" OMG, he sounds like such a complete fucking DORK falloff SO damn awkward lol
heart prince I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it prince heart

When Dangerous dropped I was in awe of "In The Closet" (as well as the title track). Teddy delivered the goods with this one. Stripped down yet operatic. Hip-hop, yet soulful. Funky, yet flirtatious and charming. The crescendos, tacit, harmonies, and a bass line that’s felt more than its heard. MJ’s vocals and vocal arrangement are superb as usual, capturing a perfect blend of intensity and rawness, yet endearing, passionate, and strikingly believable in context. If you ain’t feeling it during, “There’s something about you, baby, that makes me want to give it to you” then you’re deaf…or inhuman.

The opening piano, synth strings, killer drum sounds and “Planet Rock” lasers ( lol ), orchestra hits/ horn stabs, and sound f/x perfectly construct a song. (There are hundreds of new school so-called producers who need to take note of this.) I was surprised that this song wasn’t a bigger hit.

And any great song should have a great video to accompany it. fro

love that song! It's not in my top 5 Dangerous favourites but it is pretty good. When I first saw the video, I was shocked because of mj looking built and having his hair all neat without bright makeup. I kind of wish he kept that look. Even my mom who totally hates what he's done to himself admitted he looked good in that video

Still quite disappointed that he didn't perform this song and and the other up-tempo songs on the "Dangerous" tour.

according to people close to M she was shocked that MJ didn't know that the title could refer to being homosexual. she had an idea of using her him and Jose and Luis.

she ended up backing away after the song didn't turn out the way she wanted. MJ didn't stop the rumor that it was her as the mystery girl. this song is the root of the Janet and M feud.

Never heard that one, I'd love to if it's that bad lol

Well, here are the words to the IJCSY intro:

Mike speaking in a breathy voice:

"I just wanna lay next to you for awhile,
You look so beautiful tonite.
Your eyes are so lovely,
Your mouth is so sweet.
Alot of people misunderstand me,
That's because they don't know me at all.
I just want to touch you, and hold you.
(whispers) I need you. God I need you.
I love you so much."

lol

Ok, I found the infamous intro, it's included in this video montage I found on Youtube. It's at the very beginning.

Not a good choice for a lead single, esp. after hearing about how the "new" Michael Jackson was gonna be a lot more street.

yup

The song, written by Jackson and Teddy Riley, is about keeping a relationship between secret. It was also allegedly Jackson's attempt to silence critics who questioned his sexuality. To further squelch rumors, the video, directed by Herb Ritts, features Jackson dancing suggestively with model Naomi Campbell. The song's female vocal was originally labeled "Mystery Girl" but was later revealed to be Princess Stéphanie of Monaco, though the vocal was originally meant for Madonna).

Guest appearances on this album were made by rapper L.T.B, Princess Stephanie of Monacco (credited as the "Mystery Girl"), and Slash
