I still struggle with Invincible, I always feel seriously enervated when I put it on. I believe the fans who say it's great, but i'm still waiting for it to click with me.

I feel like Invincible could have been way better if some of the album songs were swapped for some superior outtakes. As it stands it is not a bad album at all, just easily MJ`s weakest release as an adult. There are still some gems though.

The outtakes don't fit the Invincible sound at all.

The album i s like 80min long, in my opinion it could haveused a bit more variation. Now the album suffers from too many similar songs.

Yes, I do agree, it's too long. We could do without songs like YAML, Cry, Privacy and 2000 Watts en even DWA.

I think shout should have replaced you are my life. That song is the most boring babyface production, and they did so much better on the song on the line

Shout doesn't fit the sound of Invincible.

It would have sounded good after 2000 watts, just my opinion

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton
