Bad (Full Album) - Michael Jackson Reaction FIRST TIME HEARING

[@yunngjd]

It’s so rare seeing people react to MJ albums but I love it! It’s like getting to listen to this for the first time again 🙌🏾

[@YourLocalMelomaniac]

Thank you!! And thanks for joining!! 🙏🏼💯💯

[@BettyDickie10]

Right?!

[@BelfastManUtdTherapy]

My exact feelings! I love the whole "reaction" phenomena of the KZbin era. I love it

[@izasol-5225]

Next DANGEROUS!!!! please!!!! Musically amazing and lyrically very important. Thanks a lot for the Michael Jackson reaction!

[@Taj_Rahine]

I forgot how much I love Speed Demon

[@randychampion184]

Always one of my favourites from that album.

[@thatguyrubenn]

Liberian Girl is the single one song that has aged the best. Unreal production and the outro harmonies are out of control.

[@UniversalMokenTroll]

A lie 😇. Dirty Diana, Another Part Of Me, etc are flawless.

[@tinatinkvirkvelia1317]

Regarding your question about singles: yep, most of the songs on the album were released as singles, that's why they're so big, and Bad was also a historical album because it had a whopping FIVE #1 songs on it!

[@horrorpowerfilms9481]

But the songs were modest #1 hits, just the title broke the record for fastest #1 song in history to leave the top 40 and the rest were ok sellers.

[@BelfastManUtdTherapy]

Christmas 1987 I got mj Bad and a cassette tape player. Best mj album and every song I've heard a billion times and still love. Goat.

[@YourLocalMelomaniac]

Thank you!! 🙏🏼

[@NicholasMarsh-i8k]

I think when you listen to Speed Demon a few times, it hits hard. One of my favourties, FUNKYY! Love your review.

[@TheBoyBobo]

The live version of Another Part Of Me is insanely good. Faster and funkier😎

[@johnsanz8351]

Michael wrote 85% of this album, the goat.

[@timtim00]

Leave Me Alone was originally a bonus track available only on the CD album.

[@_l_i_h_4085]

That's right. "Leave Me Alone" was one of the songs that did not make it onto the final version of the album. The "Leave Me Alone" video aired as a separate entity and won a Grammy in 1990 for Best Music Video, Short Form, which is the only Grammy Award Michael received for the album Bad. (Such a shame!) "Leave Me Alone" video also won the Cannes Gold Lion Award for Best Special Effects. Huge MJ fan here :)))))

[@timtim00]

@_l_i_h_4085 Yes, the Bad album was released in 1987 with the CD version having the song Leave Me Alone, that went on to be released as a single in 1989, love the song and the video.

[@mirab948]

"Another Part of Me" is also from the "Michael Jackson Captain EO" movie/3D amusement park ride at Disneyland. Captain EO was so successful that Disney created Epcot Center and started adding more movie rides like "Honey I Strunk the Kids" and all the other movie rides created later.

[@dancingwheels8494]

The CRAZIEST thing is that MJ was such a perfectionist that he was never completely satisfied any of his work. He’d say that usually when he listened to his music, he’d hear everything that wasn’t there, that should be there.

[@itsjustnaima]

He also did the same after his concerts, he’d sit down after his concerts and watch the whole footage in his hotel room looking for nothing but mistakes to make sure he wouldn’t do them again. What a perfectionist..🐐

[@luana45393]

Probably because of his father who would beat him at ANY mistake and it was never good enough, it's okay to want to do better but he should have known that no one is perfect all the time and that it is okay. I'd say it's quite unhealthy.

[@dancingwheels8494]

@@luana45393 I think a huge part of it was his father. But MJ a voracious reader and studier of the greats. Over time, he would adopt their techniques. For example, Quincy Jones was known to make the artist do the dame thing over and over, like 100 times. But MJ liked that because it brought the best in them.

[@sidrashirazi2620]

Every song is so unique so grateful to be born in Michael Jackson’s era ❤❤❤ miss him so much thanks for doing this

[@noahlouis5630]

Don't forget: MJ's album are even better with the time.

[@amontaineaurore4700]

I think you should do Off the Wall next. Then you will have listened to all of his albums from the Michael Jackson/Quincy Jones era before moving forward. Dangerous is a sharp departure in sound. Classic album, but different producers and very different sound. I'm enjoying these reactions!

[@saramaria-wh2tg]

Another Part Of Me was actually first released as part of a disney short film called Captain EO (1986) which stars Michael as the main character! That and another song called We Are Here To Change The World! You should watch it, would love a reaction actually!

[@Taj_Rahine]

Captain EO at Disney was so amazing. Another Part of Me was the song that played at the end while the credits were rolling. I would always walk out as slowly as possible to hear as much of the song as I could. It was almost shocking to me that people could actually walk out of the room while this song was jamming through the theater system.

[@ItsBeeRay]

In regards to "I Just Can't Stop Loving You", Siedah Garret is also singing throughout the song. They pretty much have an equal amount of lines and they harmonise the chorus together. Her cadence is very similar to his in this song and a lot of people aren't able to distinguish it upon first listen but if you listen again closely, you'll notice that there are indeed two different voices.

[@VeganaAnarkiisto]

Siedah Garett singing on IJCSLY also wrote man in the mirror. Stevie Wonder singing on Just good friends wrote the wonderful I can't help it on adult MJ's first solo album Off the wall. I got MJ's catalog engraved in my ears, but it's really nice to see more people still discovering all the many colors of His music. 🤟👍

[@jimmybelc2057]

Love ur reaction and can’t wait for the next album Dangerous ❤

[@YourLocalMelomaniac]

Thanks!! 🙏🏼 😁😁

[@marioandres1006]

Come on nobody over the planet EARTH and Who knows in other planets , does not know Michaels songs....🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@timtim00]

@@marioandres1006 they wouldn't necessarily know the album tracks or the singles that no longer get much air play.

[@HaileyJackson10]

You should react to his other albums to MJ is called the best for a reason he’s the biggest artist ever

[@rosa_stars349]

leave me alone is sooo good, also the meaning of it is very personal to mj

[@WhatAboutBabyBoy]

Let's go with chronological order: "Dangerous 1991" is the next album. Please check out Dangerous; I'd love to see your take on this album, because Dangerous was very creative and experimental album in MJ catalog. Also, it is a personal favorite among Michael Jackson fans. I can't wait to hear your thoughts on the "Dangerous' album. Love your genuine reactions :)

[@TheShark94700]

He needs to react to Off The Wall first

[@aghatabarbosa19]

I love Just Good Friends, underrated banger

[@luana45393]

Fun fact: Siedah Garrett, the one who sang with Michael on I Just Can't Stop Loving You, actually wrote the lyrics for Man In The Mirror and also another one from his next album Dangerous!

[@harrymedia1184]

Just Good Friends is such a banger tho def one of my fav songs of his i dont know why it doesnt have more streams, people paying it dust fr

[@jipiju]

Yep, it's awesome!

[@lauren-mo1km]

Bad definitely has a story and it makes more sense when you watch the music video and it's based on a true story, we NEED a reaction to the Bad music video (aka short films like Michael liked to call them), hell all of them lol

[@madeinsound08]

I think Leave Me Alone was a bonus track for the album, that's probably why you feel like it sounds weird as an outro cause originally the last song was supposed to be Smooth Criminal. And I'm also pretty sure Smooth Criminal was supposed to be the name of the album at first so that's probably why it was the last song (if it wasn't for Leave Me Alone).

[@JK_87606]

Bad albums is very awesome 🙂

[@lisasreactions7150]

Hi Mr. Melomaniac, This is One of My Favorite Michael Jackson Albums I Really Love The Way You Make Me Feel Bad Another Part Of Me Man In The Mirror Smooth Criminal I Just Can't Stop Loving You They're My Favorite Michael Jackson Songs for this Album. ❤😍🥰

[@colie7362]

great reaction! also to explain dirty diana, thats a song michael wrote because groupies are people hes dealt with his entire life since he was like 10 in the jackson 5. its about the type of girls who wait around shows and try to sleep with musicians. and This one is named Diana. shes trying to get him to sleep with her and he refuses. but ultimately in the end, he gives in and goes home with her.

[@YourLocalMelomaniac]

Okay that definitely makes sense lol, thank you!! 🙏🏼

[@BettyDickie10]

Man in the Mirror is my favorite from this album but The Way you Make me Feel is a very close second. I was the little girl who was wearing the red jacket and practicing my moonwalk lmao Memories lol Thanks man!

[@YourLocalMelomaniac]

Man In The Mirror is seriously beautiful 💯💯

[@BabyBoyBuchanan]

DANGEROUS NEXT PLEASE!!! My favorite album of all time and favorite MJ album!

[@andrescastaneda7460]

Awesome reaction man!! btw I Just Can’t Stop Loving You was a duet with Siedah Garrett, her and Michael were going back and forth vocally I don’t know how you didn’t notice haha, and also Idk if you noticed but Just Good Friends was a duet with Stevie Wonder! Great reaction tho man looking forward to Dangerous next!

[@YourLocalMelomaniac]

@@andrescastaneda7460 I have no idea how I didn’t notice that lmfao, I think just the pitch plus focusing on the lyrics lmao. I can definitely tell upon relisten 😂😂😂 Thank you for watching!! 😁😁

[@AJ-nw5su]

Controversial opinion: Dirty Diana > Beat It

[@ItsBeeRay]

Agreed. As popular as Dirty Diana is, it's still massively underrated.

[@EricEzekiel-f4t]

True

[@marakimamushet1274]

Not controversial at all

[@prettycyber8332]

That audio in Smooth Criminal is from his movie Moon Walker which goes into the music video. Same with Speed Demon, Leave me Alone and DD, are apart of Moonwalker

[@BelfastManUtdTherapy]

Do some live mj reactions. Billie Jean at Wembley 88 is a good starter 😁

[@AA-qb7ni]

Thriller is incredible but to me Bad is my favourite MJ album 🙌🏽

[@blackjesus3698]

You should react to dangerous and history now... 2 absolute masterpieces !

[@YourLocalMelomaniac]

I will !! 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@luana45393]

RIP Quincy Jones who produced 3 of his albums, Off The Wall, Thriller and Bad and passed away just over a week ago 😢😢

[@raw3380]

You should have reacted to bad 25, it's the same album but with some extra songs you should react to it as well

[@MaryGreen-b4c]

Fun Fact: Speed Demon; Gave from a real event, where M.J. was actually pilled over by a L.A. Cop, and given a ticket; is it so genius how he used real events and situations in his personal life to pen his music. M.J. Forever R.I.H. Missed on earth Thank you for sharing and helping us to keep his Legacy alive!

[@YourLocalMelomaniac]

Thank you!! 🙏🏼

[@Exclusive1EXC5]

My favorite album of all time

[@taIesfx]

thx for putting the chapters I asked for in the Thriller react :)

[@YourLocalMelomaniac]

Most definitely!! 😁😁

[@skellzzed8255]

Dangerous!!

[@prettycyber8332]

Yes!!!! This is the most underrated

[@MaryGreen-b4c]

M.J. has five(5) song that have surpassed the (One Billion): On KZbin * Thriller *Billie Jean * They Don't Care About Us *Beat It * Smooth Criminal FOOTNOTE: M.J. Biopic has been push from Thursday, April 18, 2025 to October 3, 2025 Reason; To coincide with the Awards nomination Still looking forward to the awesome event😊😊😊😊😊😊 Every one have a blessed and safe weekend.😊😊😊😊

[@itsmagic-km7wt]

i love this video! please react to dangerous next!!

[@MaryGreen-b4c]

Just Good Friends is: Song with M.J. cousin, Stevie Wonder ( third cousin on his mother side)!!

[@kidus_1010]

Dangerous album next. Whole different sound, different genre, different producer, different vibes, deeper lyrical content, rap verses, etc.

[@ParalyticAngel]

Yes, man. "Another Part Of me" is one of my most favorite tracks of Michael Jackson. "Beat It" is my Top 1 and then comes "Billie Jean" and or "Another Part Of Me". Can't even decide between this two amazing tracks.

[@randychampion184]

Ok a great reaction. Here are a few things1. That is Seidah (pronounced Sy--ee-dah) Garrett. 2. Liberian Girl (Liberia is of course a country in West Africa) .3. The crowd sounds on Dirty Diana are part of the original recording i.e. were added in the studio mix. 4. Stevie joined Michael for Just Good Friends on this album, whilst Michael joined Stevie on "Get It" on Stevie's album Characters also released in 1987.

[@PhoenixHammond]

If you're going to continue reacting to the MJ Albums I'd go back and do Off the Wall (1979) at somepoint as well as there's probably 1-2 tracks you'll know from that one as well and it is his 3rd best selling album I believe. The other must do ones are Dangerous (1991) and HIStory - Past Present and Future (1995), although just be aware that the first part of history is repeated material and the second part is the new songs. You can do the others are good too but those 5 are the big ones.

[@timtim00]

I think the Blood On The Dance Floor album would be good too, at least the 1st 5 songs, not the remixes off the HIStory album 🤷‍♂️

[@PhoenixHammond]

@@timtim00 Depends if your just doing the new material or including the remixes. I also kind of like Invincible but I was mainly listing albums with songs a non MJ fan might know.

[@elodie2404]

"Just Good Friends" a duet Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder

[@noahlouis5630]

ANOTHER PART OF ME !!!!!!

[@aghatabarbosa19]

OMG YES!!! I waited so long for this one ❤

[@KB-xp6dq]

It's so funny that the lyrics in "Man in the Mirror" say "Chime on" when EVERYBODY knows it's "Shamone!" 😁

[@UniversalMokenTroll]

Dirty Diana is utter perfection.

[@cristianonascimentodasilva9773]

[@jipiju]

Liberian Girl was sampled for 2PAC post hum Letter to my unborn child track at least, maybe you heard that? Bad album is awesome. So many highlights, almost all tracks are masterpieces.

[@saphire2214]

MC Lyte feat. Xscape also samples Liberian Girl on "Keep On, Keepin' On" released in 96'.

[@jipiju]

@saphire2214 Thanks, I didn't know that!

It’s time for u to start reacting to him love soon I say after all the album reaction be ready for greatness

[@nihanth9145]

You are gonna love dangerous even more it’s Michael going all out and it’s completely him without Quincy jones as producer , Michael got new producers and also produced some tracks himself , and also RAP

[@DexTaylorDJ]

Shamone 🙌🏼

[@dominomasters104]

nicee i have that vinyl

[@philrob1978]

"I Just Can't Stop Loving You" - not the best thing in the world, probably the weakest thing on the album. Well known for Siedah Garrett's vocals, but don't underestimate her - she wrote the lyrics for "Man In The Mirror", Michael loved her lyrics so much, and well the rest is history. Also "Leave Me Alone" was only on the CD release at the time, so most of us didn't even know about it's existence. Thankfully, they released it as a single the following year. A banger that a lot us almost missed out on! You MUST watch the video for this - the context is completely necessary to understand the song. Do it. Do it now.

[@dominomasters104]

also plzzzz react to one of michael jacksons concerts will be so cool to see ur reaction arguably better than his album

The lyrics you read are wrong ! That's not "Shamone", that's not a name ! That's "Come on" but a kind of slang prononciation of "Come on" ... And in the official booklet of the Bad album (CD, tape, LP), it is written "Come on", not "Shamone"... That's like "wanna" for "want to" or "gonna" for "got to"

[@luana45393]

He definitely said "shamone" tho

[@elodie2404]

@@luana45393 That's the pronunciation, not the name ! That's the pronunciation for "Come on" ! That's a slang, but the lyrics is "Come on", not "Shamone" and neither "Shime On" (you will note that Musixmatch write that same exclamation in two different ways, one in Bad ("Shamone") and one in Man In The Mirror "Shime on" 😉... They definitely son't know what it means) But if you buy the REAL disc, not the mp3, you'll read the lyrics 😉 It's "Come on !"... And... I know a little about that slang 😉

[@elodie2404]

Why have you removed my comment about "Another Part Of Me" ? Here it is (I re-publish it because it has been removed unfairly) "Another Part Of Me" was originally a 1986 song made by Michael Jackson for the George Lucas' film Captain EO displayed in an attraction of Disneyland Michael Jackson plays the main character into it 💖 And that's very interesting because when you watch him and listen to him, that's the perfect (missing) bridge between the Thriller and the Bad periods, you can recognize both of the periods in the way he looks, dances and sings 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖 and I love the other song he made for the film (that unfortunately does not appear on the Bad album "We Are Here To Change The World" 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍) You can find the videos on KZbin, if you want 😉

[@YourLocalMelomaniac]

I hadn’t removed any comments, possibly auto from KZbin. Or just hard to find lol But thank you for watching and thank you for the info 💯💯

[@bluewhitecars]

I don't like this subsequently changed version of the Bad album at all. The missing horns in Bad, Smooth Criminal without the heavy breathing in the intro, Dirty Diana shortened, the missing voice intro in IJCSLY... Long live the original version (which you can neither stream nor download).

[@elodie2404]

Mistake in the lyrics for "Man in The Mirror" as well ! Your source (Musixmatch) is really awful ! That's not "I'm startin' with the man in the mirror (Who ?)" but "I'm startin' with the man in the mirror (Hoo !)" In the official booklet, there is not any "who ?"... If Musixmatch goes that way, it should as well write "If you wanna make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and make that change ! Who ? Who ? Who ?" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 By the way, it's "take a look at yourself and make that change" not "...the change", contrary to what your source pretends Edit : Oh, here it's "Chime on", in Bad it was "Shamone" but it's THE SAME WORDS, a slang pronunciation of "Come on", come on ! 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Oh, at least at 34:07 (or around) they understood the "Hoo !" ! Better late than never ! 34:41 I imagine if they kept on with their mistake "Who ? Who ? Who ? How ?" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 What shocks me the most is that Musixmatch didn't even bother just read the lyrics ! They just wrote them by what they thought they heard, that's not respectful to Michael Jackson and to any singer in general... If they want to create a company that displays the lyrics of the songs, the need to do it properly !
