And you'd lose quite often. falloff

Seriously though, I Can't Let Her Get Away and Who Is It were/are the jams. Those are my favorites from that album. I remember when this album came out I was relieved because Bad (which I later grew to like) disappointed me. Dangerous let me know Mike still had it.

I'm with you on that. In fact I've only just started to like the Bad album in the last few months. I always liked Man In The Mirror, Smooth Criminal and The Way You Make Me Feel, tho'.

'Tis a good tune. But actually one of the weakest on the album. Which just goes to show what a quality album it is. Even the lesser stuff is great. smile



Pleeze that is the cut! I liked it more than "She Drives Me Wild". Every song on that album i liked.

A personal fav for me was "Keep The Faith" i heard Michael kept crying while singing that song, and he had to do many many takes because of the allegations going on...


That's just your opinion. It's not like I said it was a bad song. But along with Why You Wanna Trip On Me, Heal The World and Gone Too Soon it's one of the least essential on the album. In my opinion. wink

add 'she drives me wild' to the list and i'm with you. i always saw those songs as filler. i often skipped them. they could have been cool as b-sides though. i never liked 'gone too soon' until i saw mike perform it at bill clinton's inauguration. so, perhaps you can leave that one on there..
don't need no reefer, don't need cocaine
purple music does the same to my brain

I LOOOVE that song! Probably my fave off dangerous which IMO is MJ's best work.

Definately like to blast it crusing down to the beach in summer...

Also love "why you wanna trip on me?" with the big bass in my car stereo yeeyahh!!
Music, sweet music, I wish I could caress and...kiss, kiss...
