Michael Jackson - Ghosts (80s Mix) [12" Version]

It feels like... the Ghost of Jealousy! 👻🧟 Here is the 12" extended version of my 80s version of "Ghosts" by Michael Jackson! 🏝✨ Do you think THIS is 'funky'? 😏🎶 A more smooth-subdued, yet still groovy-funky take on the title track of the song from the short film "Ghosts"! 🎥🔥 This one actually was made & done within a few days earlier this year (or in '1988'), with some help from a queen from Ibadan named Sade. 👑💎 It was fun, and it didn't need to be an intense one compared to... the other ones. 👁✊🏾💣💥 The 12" extended version is also available on this page! 💿 Hope you enjoy, you spooky folks! 😎🤘🏾 Stay tuned. 🖤
Get it while it's hot! 🔥 Seriously, I know some, if not most or all of these songs may get axed by "them" at any moment, so please use the download links well and share the music (album/songs) with your friends so that the Groove'n'Funk never truly goes away. Thank you! 🖤

The original version of “Ghosts” was leaked by American producer Eulonzo on October 11th, 2022. It was unknown this version existed.
Although fans are familiar with the original version from the “Blood on the Dance Floor: HIStory In The Mix” remix album in 1997, as well as from the short film of the same name, it has been revealed that “Ghosts” (rumored to be original originally titled “Ghost of Jealousy”) was originally written as far back as 1984 during the Forever sessions, and recorded on and off in 1984-1988 at Westlake Recording Studios in Los Angelos as well as Compass Point Studios in Nassau, Bahamas - alongside singer Sade. It’s believed that this was made around the same time as the original version of “2 Bad” and various other tracks that were considered for the Ghosts short film. It’s unclear whether or not the vocals were ever completed for this version.
The song is strongly believed to have been written during and after the success of the single/music video for “Thriller” and Michael feeling inspired to do dozens of spooky-genre songs, potentially for another ‘horror/scary’ short film before entering the 90s decade. During this brief time, he had written and recorded the original versions of “2 Bad”, “Is It Scary”, “Threatened”, and others which had meant to be included in the next short film and/or the soundtrack. Shortly after writing the song, he began working further on this version around the summer of 1984 with Joe Kehr, alongside Sade who was co-producing and co-writing the track with Michael.
While the song runs over 5 minutes, the full-length version is an over 9 minute long extended version, with an unused Vincent Price rap from Thriller and more adlibs, drums and instrumentation from The Rag Tag Band. Out of all bandmates, Sarah Greim (aka Syradelic) was also brought into the studio first for guitar work, as well providing background vocals for the 12” version. Due to time constraints, the song was edited down to two versions, to potentially fit on a vinyl if they ever decided to put it on an album.
While most of them liked this version, Michael wasn’t completely satisfied with it. While he loved Sade and her contributions, he felt it was possibly ’too calm’ for a spooky song compared to his past scary-themed work. Quincy later heard it and also liked it, but also agreed it was missing something. Ultimately, the song was shelved due to CBS records, Sade’s label, not allowing it to be released altogether. However, Michael and Sade kindly agreed to let her keep many of the elements of the song, which evolved into her song “Paradise” which was released later as a single in 1988 for her Stronger Than Pride album.
Michael would later on revisit the song for the ‘Blood on the Dance Floor: HIStory In The Mix’ remix album in 1994-1997, this one being produced by Michael himself and Teddy Riley. He eventually put it on the album, while this version remained unreleased.

@@eulonzomixes you already know the vibes man. Nothing but love bringing back one of the greatest in a unique light like never seen before. Absolutely loving everything you’re doing. Huge inspiration for the music I’m currently doing and the genre I’m trying to execute I’ve got music out as a solo artist, just starting out. I can send you the links to my stuff if you’d like. Any support helps!

[@jimm2434]

This is definitely a Masterpiece. I find it to be uniquely different than anything Michael has ever done. I love this whole sort of Caribbean Sound that it’s giving off. I love it.

[@AlyonushkaOrlova]

Одна из моих любимых песен. Танец не реально волшебный. Актерская игра сногсшибательная!!!!!!!!!!!!🔥💔✨✨👻👻✨💀🖤❤️Люблю.

[@victorrubahimbya1124]

This is smoother and fresher it has those fresh 80s vibes when Michael was in his prime ....even the vibe has his dance moves imprinted with in it

[@eulonzomixes]

Thank you for your words! 🖤 That definitely was the goal for this one. I love the original version of Ghosts, in fact it's one of my favorite 90s tracks of his, but I definitely wanted to go a more laid-back direction with the Sade influence, as I love her as well.

[@joshua77d]

Storyline = this song was written as the 11 track on his thriller album as this would have been is second Halloween song behind thriller but was out at that last minute and it would letter appear on his blood on the dance floor on the mix album as a single

[@eulonzomixes]

As a writer since I was a kid, other peoples storylines make my WHOLE day! 😂🔥💯🙏🏾 Love it!!

[@Chuck_EL]

​@@eulonzomixes i like how you mixed his voice to sound like he did in 1982

[@fifimialet2599]

Sade MJ this mix is genius

[@eulonzomixes]

Thank you!! 🥹🖤 Means the world. This one was a bit personal for me, as I LOVE “Paradise” by Sade, so it was fun to give this song a more calmer groove rather than the more intense groove that the ‘97 version.

The song isn’t as great as this comment, though. 😎🙏🏾✨ Thank you so much!! Glad you dig this more subdued groove.

[@DartGamer]

I've always wanted to hear a mixed version of Thriller and Ghost, I think it would sound great

[@pilot7791]

[@victorrubahimbya1124]

It has less anger an cursing undertones that were common in his Dangerous Album .....it's smooth basically

[@eulonzomixes]

Absolutely, thank you! 🙏🏾 There was definitely a tad more aggressive tone to his work post-80s, especially once he did the HIStory album.

[@abax8089]

I like this remix but I think ur remix needs more a "ghostly style"

[@KeithLdemonsinseattle]

I'm curious why some samples of Sade were used?

[@eulonzomixes]

This version was inspired & intended to be in the style of Paradise by Sade, that’s why you hear her vocal samples. 🎙️✨ Love them both! 🖤

[@dannycampbell-ng5jn]

I can sound like Michael

[@user-dz4vl2vw2d]

聲音出不來，鼻音重，讓我回想起mj非洲裔外型那時期，應該可以更好的，是不是

[@alexkx8599]

This is GREAT but why do all remixes have to be dance remixes? They tend and lend themselves to becoming generic...
