Today in music history, June 1, 1988 Michael Jackson's "Bad" album was certified 6 times platinum.
Bad was the second studio album Jackson released after leaving The Jackson 5, and the first in almost five years since Thriller. The album was the third, and final, musical collaboration between Jackson and Quincy Jones.
Bad" was originally intended as a duet between Jackson and musician Prince. Other artists that were supposed to be featured on the album were Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin and Barbra Streisand; none of those collaborations ended up happening.
The album's song lyrics pertain to romance and paranoia; paranoia being a frequent theme for Jackson, having used it on his previous albums.
Critics noted that Bad moved Jackson "deeper into hard rock, deeper into schmaltzy adult contemporary, deeper into hard dance — essentially taking each portion of Thriller to an extreme, while increasing the quotient of immaculate studio-craft."
The songs from the album are:
*I Just Can't Stop Loving You
*Bad
*The Way You Make Me Feel
*Man in the Mirror
*Dirty Diana
*Another Part of Me
*Smooth Criminal
*Leave Me Alone
*Liberian Girl
