Quite a good album, much better than Off The Wall and on par with Thriller.

Are you serious guys? Bad is much better than Thriller. Non-single tracks on Thriller were weak while every single track from Bad was/is superb
Bad and Dangerous are MJ's greatest albums!!!

I prefer 'Off the wall' and 'Thriller' a step down for MJ and the beginning of osbcurity, but lots of faithful seem to enjoy it.

It's only considered a disappointment because it sold 25 million copies, not a bazillion. Michael Jackson was still on top with this album. Not a weak track on the album, but the high points are as high as the brilliance of Thriller. Great work, his last before he slipped into parody with Dangerous and beyond.

From paladisiac 12/14/2011 15:46
Jacko was backo in 1987 showing us all how "Bad" he was in his tight leather jacket and pants hanging out with smooth criminals and "dirty diana". A song like "Man In The Mirror" seems ironic when viewed against his multiple plastic surgeries and his out-of-court settlement for molesting a 13 year old. "I Just Can't Stop Loving You" was probably made fun of by every male high-school age or older, but i liked it -- and at first, i couldn't tell it was a duet because both vocals sound like Michael. On "Bad", Michael uses "Thriller" as the template and then tries to out-do himself. Video-wise, i loved the choreography.
