@@XAMAKA...they wanted more to write about his looks, surgery, children, etc. his skin disorder vitiligo was a big change for his life. Just imagine if he did not had this, maybe he would be more free.
I'd say the original songs had some underrated ones the remixes I wasn't that happy about there were better ones on the single releases. I did a feel a bit cheated that Is It Scary and Ghosts Technically are just reworks of the same song.
max martin is coming close i think but hes not a singer himself, hes only a songwriter & has worked with dozens and dozens of singers for the last ~30 years writing a bunch of their hits
Ghost had 2 (maybe 3) working sessions. Initially, we had "Is it scary" ( "Family thing" and "Seeing voices" too), working for the movie "Adams family values". Project abandoned in the summer of 1993. In 1994, for the album "HIStory", MJ worked to include "Is it scary" and derived a new track "Ghost". Neither of the two tracks were chosen. Then, in 1996 (perhaps even late 1995), MJ resumed work on the video for "Is it scary" initialy for the Adams film BO. He worked with "2 bad" for the link with the "HIStory" album and "Ghost" rather than "Is is scary". The project will result in the 96 short film "Ghost". In the film (at least the first version), the sessions of '94 are used and not much improved since Teddy Riley does not intervene. The title was therefore not totally finalised and it is not known if any additions were made. Then, with the "Blood on the dance floor" project, MJ and Teddy reworked and finalised "Ghost" at the beginning of 1997 to give the version known today. Here, these are the '94 sessions (maybe 96). That's why the 97 additions are missing. For the story, with the release of "Blood on the dance floor", the short film "Ghost" will be reworked. The picture, but especially "Is it scary" will be integrated in the skeleton sequence and, I don't remember very well, the 97 version of "Ghost" will be used. However, for the credits, it's, for sure, the 94 version still used in both versions.
MJ could have made multiple tracks from this. Is It Scary also has a similar vibe to Ghosts which i also love, i just wish Blood on the Dance Floor was a full studio album rather than a remix of HIStory for the most part. The 90's is an often overlooked decade for Michael. I find that it's his most creative and purest.
Man I listened back to dangerous and history and just can’t believe all those songs were on one album! And now being able to dive into the intricacies with videos like these just make it so much more mind blowing! He was a literal genius vocally and musically.
When it comes to Background Vocals, The way MJ was hearing all kind of instruments come together before they even started recording, Ad Libs, beatbox, Harmonies and layering, MJ is simply the best. There’s so much work that went into every single song of his, it’s crazy! And the way he CHOSE to make himself sound imperfectly perfect. A lot of artists lack of that and just sing trying to hit all the right notes and make no mistakes. Ugh, I love that Man!!! Thanks for breaking this one down! I think you’d enjoy 2 Bad!!! It has A LOT of fascinating background vocals & harmonies! I could listen to Michael mumbling all freaking day, haha!
I've always loved listening to MJ's backing vocals, his voice was his instrument. Reminds me of Marvin Gaye, which isn't surprising since MJ used to sit in while Marvin recorded when they were at Motown. He learned from the best.
Dude, I can die complete now. SO AMAZING to explore these UNHEARD, UNRELEASED, MJ vocals. We're literally listening to him creating in the moment and it just shows how legendary he really was/ is
for me, who know MJ's pieces by heart immediately and in detail for decades (the last even more interesting than the Quincy) being able to listen to single tracks or specific stems is a lust. Apreciate.
MJ was a definitely a genius on this one but let's not forget about the guy who created this amazing groove and the musical palate this song rests on; Teddy Riley, who is also a musical genius and has been since he was 14.
Damn, I like your overall collection of MJ breakdowns for the fact that there are some rear yet nonetheless significant songs from the discography in it. I gotta admit I was sold after seeing Blood On the Dancefloor, and now Ghosts - like, it’s Fatality man. If there is an ace in the sleeve in a form of maybe Morphine in this collection of yours - that would be even more mind blowing - more of like Brutality. Once again, appreciate these, for real. Thanks, man!
The old broken camera sounds, the distorted audio parts that almost sound like a voice under heavy noise removal, it's all so cool! You dont even HEAR half of these sounds in the final song!
This is really really good. I'm pretty sure this was a Studio Demo he chose to do for future reference, so he wouldn't forget all the ideas he had in his head. Would absolutely die to hear the studio session of Morphine. One of his most personal songs and one of my favorites as well. Thank you for all your hard work. We love you.
Morphine is AWESOME!!! I think Slash played on that 1, like he did on several MJ tracks.... "demerol, oh God he's taking demorol.... demerol!" LOL So good
Happy Birthday to the one and only King of Pop, Michael Jackson!!! Just a pure genius! We love and miss you more than ever MJ 🖤🖤 The layering gives you CHILLS. It's insane!
Literally one of my favorite songs from Michael to the point where you were teasing me, so I had to go and listen to it to be fulfilled with the dopamine rush-! This song is just amazing!!
When I realized a few years back that the beginning chorus was just Michael and not a choir of women singing with him, I’ve felt so stupid and embarrassed because I should have known it was him. The echo made it hard for me to decipher 😂😭 The mumbling before the “Don’t understand it” sounds like how students hear teachers in school 😂 What Michael does is pretty much me trying to sing along with his songs 19:58 I’m so sorry, but- 😂😭
I’m so happy I found your channel I love listening/learning about this type of stuff and because of this I don’t listen to the song the same knowing all the different things that’s going on BIG thanks
my vote for “who is it”, bro! one of my personal all-time favourites, especially would be interested in seeing what that bass sound is in fact - a single layer of some synth or a multilayered combo of various differently processed wave forms - eg. square / sine / triangle. always find myself asking this question when listening to the track. this low-end element especially sounds way ahead of its time
@xscape kinda sad to hear. maybe one day we’ll be lucky to hear the original multitracks of those. as for deconstruction - any content of that nature is appreciated, i think it’s even safe enough for me to say this for the majority of people who comment on these videos 😁
Chris, your videos made me admire more the genius that Michael was! I’ve started to listen to Michael’s music in a different way since I’ve watched your amazing videos! Not only MJ’s musics, but music in general! Thanks for that! 💙 And keep doing videos about MJ, pleeeease!!! 🥰
His demos are fascinating, as sometimes they're almost different songs. I love hearing all those different layers -- any one of which is a joy to listen to alone.
@@chrisliepe Also his lyrical content matured a lot in this era and became more personal and interesting, covering topics like racism, court cases and the intense isolation and loneliness experienced from being (literally at the time) the most famous person on the planet - something the rest of us cannot truely understand.
I'm singing along so damn much that I have to keep rewinding it so I can hear you what you're saying and so I could hear the original This is such a hot track and the way he put things together is pure genius
what a nice surprise! MJ reloaded (or "unheard")... it needs an artist to understand HIS work - and you got it! thank you so much, it is great fun watching your videos.
LOVE this! I would love "In the closet" "who is it" "stranger in moscow" and "tabloid Junkie" and "Is it scary" lol I know that's a lot. I'm gonna have to check on the page and see what other ones you have. I'm so glad you chose to do this one! I got lost in the drum part alone!
If you do this in todays world, they call it overproduction. It's amazing to see the mountain of work that goes into making the classic 🙌... hats off to the mixer ..amazing!! .
Ghosts is my fav off Blood on the Dancefloor. What you've showcased on this video is exactly the reason I love this song so much. Michael was waaaayyyyy ahead of time with his music, and I've been a die hard fan since 1990. Thank you for bringing his music to life with all that you showcase. #moonwalkerforlife
Michael said once said in an interview that one of his biggest challenges he had when recording music was trying to reproduce sounds that he could hear in his head and creating them in the studio.
Another great breakdown, Chris! Showing all these videos from MJ really reinforces his aptly named title of “The King of Pop”. I mean he really was through all his abilities in making these songs come to life and sure he had some help along the way, but mostly these videos of you breaking down the stems of these popular songs of his, showcases what a pop master he was on stage and in the studio.
Your tremolo at 19:15 was actually on point, very similar sounding to his. Michael often had that sigh or whatever it is at the end of a note that made him sound very passionate and into the song
I was so excited for u to do this song specifically because I could hear little bits and bobs but could never pick them out and this isolates everything I've been hearing for years but couldn't fully pick out. MJ was a genius.
Also Chris may I request She Drives Me Wild from the Dangerous Album? That song is super experimental with all those car noises. I always want to recreate it!
Considering the amount of work and effort MJ put into each song, it really would have devastated him to have heard the rubbish the estate released after he died.
HAHAA i love this chris!!! You like a curious little kid waiting for christmas gift when u turn up the volume of the vocals where they speak in backround. thats so nice to hear. love your content man.
I LOVE all of your videos but i dont know why the videos about mj tracks are always more interesting to hear! He Was really a great musician! Thank you for making us understand how good he was like musician and vocalist.
You are so killing Mee... I can't even. Watch. Everytime I feel like i have to calm down and after day. Or so , than i can return and watch these awesome masterclasses.. i know you know, butdoyou know how big this is how lucky you are to get the most iconic pieces of music in history to analyze like that. And also how lucky we are...?? I can't watch. Now...
Really appreciate your de-constructions videos. Wouldn't it be cool if Artist's/Record Company's and the big music streaming sites like Spotify and Apple released not only the artists music catalogue but their multi-tracks as well and even provide a way of, for example of using some advanced AI software that you could use the bass line in one song and the drums in another and mix them together where the AI automatically tunes and beat-matches the individual parts. Think of using the bass line of Billie Jean to the Bee Gees You Should Be Dancing with the brass section from Earth Wind and Fire. It would be a more rich experience for the consumer.
My understanding is that Kanye released an mp3 player that has a balancing and remixing "stems" built in. Not for using with different songs but so you can manipulate levels tempo ect per song
*This session was recorded when the song was not complete at all.* In the beginning, you can hear unique arrangements that did not end up in the actual song. Namely, the cool "oscillating" sounds you play around @8:00-@9:00
This was really cool. I can imagine the perscussion parts were made first and the song was made around that. As a drummer I have recorded patterns over patterns just for fun, I bet MJ had a lot of input in the percussion.
Awesome video!!! Great breakdowns of Michael's voice once again, and also the sounds and scratch tracks. So cool! Thank you so much Chris for all your videos and courses. You are inspiring, and a great teacher and person too.
Teddy Riley, (Dangerous album producer) always Mumbled/Skat the songs in idea format with the inflections before sticking the lyrics... An amazing tool for all musicians to get a song started.
I have been trying to find the right words to express my excitement for the past 12 days..😭😭 Thank you Chris... this is mind blowing.... please do "Stranger in Moscow" if you got it (that clap is one of my favorites), then "Who Is It"
It really is such a treat when there are demos available that are straight out of the sessions so you hear Michael doing things like humming "dunna-da, da-da, dadala-da" instead of singing "there's a ghost out in the hall." It's intriguing.
Wow! Amazing what you do on your deep dives and share with us for the free 99. These deep dives alone are worth premium exclusivity! I'm a fan. Can't wait to try your personal lessons.
Ghost is a very underrated song, like every song in Blood on the dance floor, history in the mix
I think the media destroyed his Popularity. His music was still amazing, but people don’t want to listen to it, because they thought he was weird
@@XAMAKA...they wanted more to write about his looks, surgery, children, etc. his skin disorder vitiligo was a big change for his life. Just imagine if he did not had this, maybe he would be more free.
Not crazy about that album, but it does have some good songs. Ghosts is amazing.
Extremely underrated.
I'd say the original songs had some underrated ones the remixes I wasn't that happy about there were better ones on the single releases. I did a feel a bit cheated that Is It Scary and Ghosts Technically are just reworks of the same song.
I underestimate how addictive the beat of this song is.
!
Same !!!!
I think MJ is the only one who unlocked God Tier in pop music, it was unmatched and is still unmatch.
Hear, hear. I'm still waiting for someone to reach that high level.
max martin is coming close i think but hes not a singer himself, hes only a songwriter & has worked with dozens and dozens of singers for the last ~30 years writing a bunch of their hits
@@chuuisinsane he’s very talented, but I would only place him in the “great” category, not “legendary”.

Being imperfectly perfect is freedom :) this is where he felt most free. Recording studio and stage.
2 bad
Agreed 😅🙌🏽💞🌟🎯🎶🎩
2 bad is a godly track
You can enjoy the groove and power of 2Bad just listening to the lead, background vocals and beatboxing 🔥🔥🔥
I've always loved listening to MJ's backing vocals, his voice was his instrument. Reminds me of Marvin Gaye, which isn't surprising since MJ used to sit in while Marvin recorded when they were at Motown. He learned from the best.
And Stevie too
Didn’t know that. Amazing! “Study the greats, to become greater”
Dude, I can die complete now. SO AMAZING to explore these UNHEARD, UNRELEASED, MJ vocals. We're literally listening to him creating in the moment and it just shows how legendary he really was/ is
10:57 this moment, when its started, it just shocked me! Unbelevable damn!!! He was a GENIUS!!!
my favorite part.. the engineering is God Level

8:33 I heard a lot of that sound effect in Michael's songs, it's my obsession now
Yes it's like a scratch, and it appears in : remember the time, ghosts and blood on the dance floor. A Love it and I guess Michael Too!
🎵Put a knife in my back, shot an arrow in me🎵
Great analysis as always.
Tell Me Are You THE GHOST OF JEALOUSY!!!
It was so cool to hear it. Great video!
I think it would be interesting to break down “Morphine” from the same album
Yeah and or Is it Scary
Morphine would be sick af!
@@_gonzalitoki We need a freakin acapella for those tracks ASAP!!!
@@schoengrau agreed moprhine
@xscape Bt why??? We already have "Ghosts" AND "BOTDF"!!!
Finally bro can’t believe it .
You are incredible.
I love Ghosts especially the short film. Could you pls do the Dangerous song by MJ.
Bless you bro

That sound was used in "Guy - Do It", also produced by Teddy Riley.
This is really really good. I'm pretty sure this was a Studio Demo he chose to do for future reference, so he wouldn't forget all the ideas he had in his head.
Would absolutely die to hear the studio session of Morphine. One of his most personal songs and one of my favorites as well.

His demos are fascinating, as sometimes they're almost different songs. I love hearing all those different layers -- any one of which is a joy to listen to alone.
Love hearing the instrumentation in separate tracks. Michaels industrial/pop 90s era was his peak for me.
I totally agree!
@@chrisliepe Also his lyrical content matured a lot in this era and became more personal and interesting, covering topics like racism, court cases and the intense isolation and loneliness experienced from being (literally at the time) the most famous person on the planet - something the rest of us cannot truely understand.
Industrial Pop! so true. He began with it in Dangerous album in songs like" she drives me wild" where he uses car noises and engines
I'm singing along so damn much that I have to keep rewinding it so I can hear you what you're saying and so I could hear the original
This is such a hot track and the way he put things together is pure genius
This is not my favourite MJ song by any stretch but this is probably the BEST breakdown you have done so far. The time spent on the intro was 👌🏿
The choir and synths are just euphoria inducing!
One of his most underrated songs!
what a nice surprise! MJ reloaded (or "unheard")... it needs an artist to understand HIS work - and you got it! thank you so much, it is great fun watching your videos.
LOVE this! I would love "In the closet" "who is it" "stranger in moscow" and "tabloid Junkie" and "Is it scary" lol I know that's a lot. I'm gonna have to check on the page and see what other ones you have. I'm so glad you chose to do this one! I got lost in the drum part alone!
Yes! More from the Dangerous album especially, but all those you suggested would be perfect!
I love MJ even more when I see all these layers working together. I just cannot fathom how all this happens in a person’s head
OMFG - 16:35 - MJ's real, unfiltered talking voice. You'd never know that was him! Amazing!
I don’t think that’s him but rather someone directing him in the studio
Not him.
That's Brad Buxer
I can’t wait to listen to this in it’s entirety. ♥️ Thanks for sharing!
I love this track from the GOAT..thank U so much Chris
OMG!! Thank you so much. Wish I could hug you and express my gratitude. I was waiting to hear anything like this on GHOSTS. 🙏🙏
I would love to hear what Take 6 think of MJ’s background vocal harmonies. MJ is so impressive with his background vocals
If you do this in todays world, they call it overproduction. It's amazing to see the mountain of work that goes into making the classic 🙌... hats off to the mixer ..amazing!!

I love all the MJ contents. You've doing such a great job, Chris. Thank you for showing the world how incredible MJ was.
MJ in the truest form of innovating Try to invent sounds and creating as a whole. Just wonderful a breath of fresh air as always
I love how you break down Mike's style in vibrato!!! So unique
LOVE THIS! Ghosts is an underrated masterpiece! Also what do you think of reacting to Mariah Carey's prime vocals?! I think she'll blow you away!
And "Is it scary" as a sequel
Yes it is.
My dad and I often talk about wishing he had filmed the recording of this album. We want to see his facial expressions while singing these songs.
Michael said once said in an interview that one of his biggest challenges he had when recording music was trying to reproduce sounds that he could hear in his head and creating them in the studio.
I’m so glad I found your channel. I’m the definition of a music illiterate but just a lover of great songs and sounds. I’m in awe!!
Ghosts is my favourite short film! This video is amazing, thank you!
I have been loving the Michael Jackson videos that you have been putting out!
Omg I’m very impressed with his way to compose this song he is a genius oh man
I'm petty sure this is the session of MJ's demo of ghosts!! That's cool! He recorded those himself I believe.
INSANE beat! Mj was a Genius
Another great breakdown, Chris! Showing all these videos from MJ really reinforces his aptly named title of “The King of Pop”.

Ghost go hard should have been a hit single on radio and been a number one hit 🔥

My all time favorite Michael Jackson song, great analysis!
Man these recordings are an unheard of treasure
This is awesome my man! I used to study this track. Awesome that you are able to break it down. A lot more than I thought went into this track.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Also Chris may I request She Drives Me Wild from the Dangerous Album? That song is super experimental with all those car noises. I always want to recreate it!
I pan 7 or 8 tracks for fun. How the heck do you pan and make sense of 50+ tracks. MJ did! U must be very special to have this!
These videos are a gift! I love the song, very underrated, both for the music, the lyrics and the video. Thank you so much!! ❤❤
Considering the amount of work and effort MJ put into each song, it really would have devastated him to have heard the rubbish the estate released after he died.
HAHAA i love this chris!!! You like a curious little kid waiting for christmas gift when u turn up the volume of the vocals where they speak in backround. thats so nice to hear. love your content man.
One of my favorite Michael Jackson songs!! I love this
I LOVE all of your videos but i dont know why the videos about mj tracks are always more interesting to hear! He Was really a great musician! Thank you for making us understand how good he was like musician and vocalist.

Really appreciate your de-constructions videos. Wouldn't it be cool if Artist's/Record Company's and the big music streaming sites like Spotify and Apple released not only the artists music catalogue but their multi-tracks as well and even provide a way of, for example of using some advanced AI software that you could use the bass line in one song and the drums in another and mix them together where the AI automatically tunes and beat-matches the individual parts. Think of using the bass line of Billie Jean to the Bee Gees You Should Be Dancing with the brass section from Earth Wind and Fire. It would be a more rich experience for the consumer.
I think the reason they don't do this is due to the sensitivity factor of copyrights and using multitracks in an unlicensed manner.
My understanding is that Kanye released an mp3 player that has a balancing and remixing "stems" built in. Not for using with different songs but so you can manipulate levels tempo ect per song
Music mashups is a thing but yeah no way labels will do as you are saying due to strong copyright issues
*This session was recorded when the song was not complete at all.*
In the beginning, you can hear unique arrangements that did not end up in the actual song. Namely, the cool "oscillating" sounds you play around @8:00-@9:00
This was really cool. I can imagine the perscussion parts were made first and the song was made around that. As a drummer I have recorded patterns over patterns just for fun, I bet MJ had a lot of input in the percussion.
That rythm ....i love MJ !
This literally tells me to embrace raw emotions and do exactly what you feel 💚💚
El tono e impostacion de la voz, los instrumentos y el ritmo, hacen de esta canción una maravilla, gracias por compartir. desde Chile 🇨🇱
Awesome video!!! Great breakdowns of Michael's voice once again, and also the sounds and scratch tracks. So cool! Thank you so much Chris for all your videos and courses. You are inspiring, and a great teacher and person too.
I love how you analyze his songs! It is so satisfying and useful.
Teddy Riley, (Dangerous album producer) always Mumbled/Skat the songs in idea format with the inflections before sticking the lyrics... An amazing tool for all musicians to get a song started.
This time, especially all those percussion layers were so awesome to hear!
Holy shit...you made my wish true of the last video. Awesome!!
Glad you liked it!
after watching this video I love this song even more now 😍
I have been trying to find the right words to express my excitement for the past 12 days..😭😭 Thank you Chris... this is mind blowing.... please do "Stranger in Moscow" if you got it (that clap is one of my favorites), then "Who Is It"
I love these vids 🔥❤️ breaking down each sound and beat that I've never heard of. They all add up to make an amazing song. Love you MJ
It really is such a treat when there are demos available that are straight out of the sessions so you hear Michael doing things like humming "dunna-da, da-da, dadala-da" instead of singing "there's a ghost out in the hall." It's intriguing.
🔥🔥 Michael Jackson is a genius! Talent. Thank you for showing this.
This was fun. One of my favorites. Michael was a musical genius.
I think Michael can make another song with that unused creepy futuristic sound😆I mean it's cool, and they know not to put that sound
yup that sounds more futuristic than what we hear on the full ver.
Could work in some video game ngl
He’s long dead
