    Ill disagree, BUT......

    Bad is a great great single.

    Dude didnt try to make Thriller Part 2.

    Bad - Hell Yes
    The Way You Make Me Feel - Yes
    Speed Demon - Nah, but cool soundscape
    Liberian Girl - Hell to tha Yes
    Just Good Friends - Nah
    Another Part Of Me - Cool
    Man In The Mirror - Yes, A little forced
    Dirty Diana - Underrated Black Rock Pop
    Smooth Criminal - Never could mess w/ this
    Leave Me Alone - Cool


    Dude's Voice was still strong.

    In these times of 80's/90's Retro - what do u play out from this album that works?

    Besides Bad.

    Yeah I'm not really sticking to it, I was just listening to this album today and it is really tops. As for DJing, I would never play Bad - works in concept but not in reality. I play:


    The Way You Make Me Feel - Killing it with that swing time signature.
    Liberian Girl - My dude played this last night, throwing "Do The James" over top it on some Ron G shit.
    Another Part Of Me - Murders the dancefloor on a consistent basis.
    Man In The Mirror - This is the jam, not really to "play out" unless you throw the "Make The Music With Your Mouth, Biz" drums underneath it.
    Smooth Criminal - Tripping, biggest song off the LP. A sureshot hit

    And you forgot:
    I Just Can't Stop Loving You feat. Siedah Garrett - my shit, although I would only play this at the end of the night.

    YES!

    b/w


    "Annie or u okay?....Are U Ok Annie?..." - nice synthline but the lyrics were corny to me.

    I mean, I don't know if I can stand by that, specially since I don't even own a copy of Got To Be There , but I have the singles, and that's close enuff! I just have to put that out there.
