I've been working on my own version of Invincible and this is what I came up with:

1. Unbreakable

2. Heartbreaker

3. Escape

4. Heaven Can Wait

5. Butterflies

6. You Rock My World

7. Hollywood Tonight

8. Speechless

9. We've Had Enough

10. Shout

11. Another Day

12. Whatever Happens

13. The Lost Children

14. Threatened

How much better is this than the album we ended up getting? How on earth did songs like Privacy and Cry make the final cut over songs like Hollywood Tonight and We've Had Enough?

I actually think if the album had had this tracklisting it would've been up there with Dangerous and HIStory.

how dare you remove "Break Of Dawn" from the album

Never been fussed on that one.

Yep, I've always felt that about half of Vince lacked that usual MJ 'bite', or was just plain terrible (eg. Privacy). I'd probably shorten the running times of certain tracks as well - eg. Unbreakable was a great 'statement' track to start the album, but it's too grating and repetitive at six and a half minutes long. I feel a similar way about a lot of Dangerous tracks.

I don't think it's known whether WHE was complete by 2001, though?

you MJ fans will never learn LOCK THIS THREAD!!!!!!!!!!!! # On a side note I was watching an MJ documentary this weekend and felt MJ's decline started with the Pepsi burn accident. Thats where the painkiller addiction stemmed from and the start of a lifetime problem with prescription drugs. So my question is - Do MJ fans boycott Pepsi products since Pepsi is indirectly responsible for his decline and eventual death?

What a stupid question. The Pepsi thing was an accident. And it's just an assumption that it had to do with anything. If anything is to blame, it's the detractors, the naysayers, the opportunists, the greedy bastards, who falsley accused him twice, the "haters" (for a lack of better word). Pepsi is not really a factor in all of it.

From what I can remember I think he didn't want to do the Pepsi commercial in the first place, so the lesson for us all is, if you really don't want to do something then don't do it!

Don't quote me but he also didn't want to do the variety show either because it focused on being funny and not on the music. He was young then so he can forgive himself for that, but in later years selling out to corporate sponsorship and pop stardom probably had a lot more to do with his decline then the accident directly.
