DANGEROUS SPECIAL EDITION - BONUS DISC

In 2000, Sony prepares the exit of Invincible actively. For the occasion, they decide to leave the special editions of the 4 large albums of Michael Jackson: Off The Wall, Thriller, Bad and Dangerous.

At the beginning, Michael wanted to badly diffuse not demonstrations and news in no-claims bonus.
For Dangerous, Michael wanted to strike even more extremely with straightforwardly second CD.

The bands masters of these songs are then sent at Bernie Grundman Mastering.
Bernie Grundman Mastering is occupied of the mixing and work on the tapes to give them a sound still better and ready to be engraved on CD.
In order to return accounts on the progress of the work, they has a presentiment of CD Master (in a negligible number) which they envoyent at the houses of discs.

However, Sony Music decides at the last time to alter the track list special editions.
According to them, a too great number of news diffused on these editions, could kill the Invincible album. Exit thus several titles which were to be reproduced on the special editions of Off The Wall, Thriller and Bad.

But most badly parcelled out was the special edition of Dangerous. All the news envisaged will be removed separately a remix Dangerous song!

And it is that which makes that this CD, which goes back to December 2000, is probably a single part!
It contains all the news which were to be reproduced on second CD of the special edition of Dangerous.

HIStory - Past, Present and Future, Book I , a double-disc album (one half greatest hits, one half studio album), was released in June of 1995 by the Epic Records division of Sony BMG.

The first disc, (HIStory Begins) contains fifteen hit singles from the past fifteen years of Jackson's career to this point. The tracklist includes fourteen U.S. Top 10 singles (nine of which were number-one hits) plus the worldwide top 5 hit "Heal the World". The second disc, (HIStory Continues) contains fifteen previously unreleased recordings, five of which were released as singles.

HIStory debuted at #1 in several countries including the UK and the U.S, while also being nominated for several 1996 Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year, which it did not win however "Scream", expensive science fiction-inspired music video won a Grammy Award for Best Short-Form Music Video.

HIStory was the first album where Michael Jackson showcased his instrumental abilities, playing keyboard and synthesizer, guitar, drums and percussion, as well as lead and backing vocals. He was also more involved in the production of this album, collaborating with producers Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, Dallas Austin, Bill Bottrell and R. Kelly. Michael also experimented with more genres on this album than on any other album, ranging from orchestral to adult contemporary rhythm and blues to "Gothic pop".

Over 390,000 copies of the album were sold in its first week. In October 1999, the RIAA certified HIStory at 7x Platinum, for shipments of 3.5 million in the United States. Thus far, HIStory has sold an estimated 18 million copies worldwide (36 million units) and is one of the greatest selling multiple-disc album of all times. The first disc of previously released hits was re-released in 2001 selling an estimated 3 million. The album debuted at #1 in most countries around the world.

The first single from the album was "Scream"/"Childhood", released in May 1995 as a double A-side single. "Scream" was a duet between Michael and his younger sister Janet, and "Childhood" was the theme song for the film "Free Willy 2".
"You Are Not Alone", the second HIStory's single, was written and produced by R. Kelly and released in August 1995. It became the first-ever single to debut at number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100.

According to the lyrics, 'Dom Sheldon is a cold man' - however, 'D.S.' is widely acknowledged to be a verbal attack on the State District Attorney, Thomas Sneddon, the man who led the criminal investigation against Michael in 1993 (and, indeed, the more recent investigation in 2004-2005). Not a very nice man.


D.S. (Dom Sheldon)- Lyrics

They wanna get my ass
Dead or alive
You know he really tried to take me
Down by surprise
I bet he missioned with the CIA
He don't do half what he say

Dom Sheldon is a cold man
Dom Sheldon is a cold man
Dom Sheldon is a cold man
Dom Sheldon is a cold man

He out shock in every single way
He'll stop at nothing just to get his political say
He think he hot cause he's BSTA
I bet he never had a social life anyway

You think he brother with the KKK?
I bet his mother never taught him
right anyway
He want your vote just to remain TA.
He don't do half what he say

Dom Sheldon is a cold man
Dom Sheldon is a cold man
Dom Sheldon is a cold man
Dom Sheldon is a cold man

Dom Sheldon is a cold man
Dom Sheldon is a cold man
Dom Sheldon is a cold man
Dom Sheldon is a cold man

Does he send letters to the FBI?
Did he say to either do it or die?

Dom Sheldon is a cold man
Dom Sheldon is a cold man
Dom Sheldon is a cold man
Dom Sheldon is a cold man

Dom Sheldon is a cold man..

Dom Sheldon is a cold man
Dom Sheldon is a cold man
Dom Sheldon is a cold man

Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' 2008 with Akon - Lyrics

Konvict..

(Akon)
I met her on a walkway
Stared as she walked past
She looked back at me sideways
She said I can't help but to ask...
Said you wanna be startin' somethin'
You got to be sartin' somethin'
Said you wanna be startin' somethin'
You got to be startin' somethin'

We ended up going back to her place
Will shock you if I tell you what I saw
Sexiest woman in a negligee
We hit it off until the morning

You heard her say...
Ma ma se, ma ma sa, ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma sa, ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma sa, ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma sa, ma ma coo sa
I gotta make her say
Ma ma se, ma ma sa, ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma sa, ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma sa, ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma sa, ma ma coo sa

Billie Jean is always talkin'
When nobody else is talkin'
Tellin' lies and rubbin' shoulders
So they called her mouth a motor
Someone's always tryin' to start my baby cryin'
Talkin', squealin', lyin'
Sayin' you just want to be startin' somethin'

So you wanna be startin' somethin'
You got to be startin' somethin'
I said you wanna be startin' somethin'
You got to be startin' somethin'
Too high to get over

You're stuck in the middle
(yeah yeah)
And the pain is thunder

(Mike)
You love to pretend that you're good
When you're always up to no good
You really can't make him hate her
So your tongue became a razor

Someone's always tryin' to start my baby cryin'
Talkin', screamin', lyin'
You got my baby cryin'

I said you wanna be startin' somethin'
You got to be sartin' somethin'
I said you wanna be startîn' somethin'
You got ta be startin' somethin'
Too high to get over

Always messin' with my baby

And that's the reason she cries cuz when i'm not by her side
(Not by her side)
On her loneliest night
(So lonely)
