@@alyssajones4368 Michael knew he had to evolve with the times.Dangerous still sounds futuristic and its been 30 years since its release.this IS not Quincy by the way..its another producer trying to capture the Quincy sound with a Jackson 5 vine with a new flavour.sounds cool but great for an álbum of the late 80s. If MJ had released this in 1989 It would have been a good hit.but It sounds too old fornthe 90s

Agreed. Whilst I love hearing these Bryan Loren demos, a lot of them end up sounding very "samey" From a commercial perspective it wouldn't have had the same impact Dangerous did.
