Michael Jackson - 01. Dangerous (Early Version/Full Original Demo) [Audio HQ] HD

[@nirvanaelnahhal]

The Demo is amazing but so 80’s. The actual Dangerous is so much more futuristic and timeless that even now in 2020 it’s so relatable like it’s a recently released track. *The king was always ahead of his time*

[@bibibobo8723]

Exactly! I totally agree, he was really ahead of his time

[@appleheadsgirl7194]

Yes

[@julianpenwell13]

When it comes to music my friend, the 80s will ALWAYS beat the future. No current singer can beat the past especially michael jackson

[@delanosubaxon8457]

That maybe so but his demo are 1000x better than now a days music. MJ always and forever!!!

[@robhiggins3287]

The song did evolve from a song called Streetwalker. That was recorded for but originally dropped from the Bad album (although it has been included in special editions of it since.)

Dangerous was conceptualized and completed between 1989-1991. He basically started to preparing for it after his concert tour for Bad.

[@SantiSanz57]

You should know that 90's "white looking" Michael, is after Dangerous was made, he was still looking like Bad era when he dropped Dangerous in 1991, his hair was longer but his skin was still black, it was in the late 91 when he started showing his skin lighter. So you can imagine him singing EVERY song from Dangerous with his 89, 90 and 91 looks.

Fun Fact. This song was Originally called Streetwalker and was meant to be for the Bad album. Michael was frustrated with how the song turned out to be so he gave it to his music engineer who ran this instrumental through machines and added different sounds to it and it eventually turned into the early version of Dangerous!

[@dawnrichards3736]

No. Streetwalker is a completely different song. But Michael took the baselick from it to creat the song dangerous. Streetwalker is on bad 25 album.

[@avace917]

Wasn't Streetwalker the song that was dropped for Smooth Criminal?

[@dmercy8477]

This was originally intended for Bad because it was evolved from Streetwalker also cut from Bad from the drums and bass. He later reworked this for his Dangerous album in 1989. I do feel like this sounds way better than the album version but the album version is more enjoyable.

[@RyanPente.]

Well, this song dangerous was not intended for bad. This version was reworked from streetwalker (which almost made the cut) and later reworked again by teddy riley. While I do like this version of the song but it it was released on the actually album it would've sounded outdated (even by 1991).
