Editorial Review:
"We wanted a tough album," producer Quincy Jones recalls in a bonus interview on this special edition of Bad. Though the 1987 blockbuster would appear to be Michael Jackson's most personal statement to date--9 of its 11 cuts were written solely by him--its appeal also rested more on craft than the idiosyncratic art of Thriller and Off the Wall. At the same time, most of Bad has aged well in spite of its digital brittleness and MIDI treatments of gems like Jimmy Smith's organ solo on the title track. While the third best of his first three Epic solo discs, Bad carries a lot of what people love about Jackson's music. This disc also benefits from two fine outtakes, the exciting, uptempo "Streetwalker" and the Carpenters homage "Fly Away." Either could easily have extended the record's run of hit singles. --Rickey Wright
Bad Reviews:
Michael Jackson at his best:) 
2008-07-19 - Michael Jackson came out with The Bad album and also The Bad Tour he is an amazing performer. And these songs are as good as thriller. Just good friends a duet with Stevie Wonder nice combination:). Dirty Diana is another favorite of mine so rock and r and b I love it! the way you make me feel my favorite as well it is romantic as he persues a girl in the video and doesn't take no for an answer :) that's Michael for you lol:). I would buy this album even if you are not a fan of MJ you become one after this album:).
M.J. at his best 
2007-12-11 - i LOVE all of these songs and this is a great reminder of my childhood and i can't stop listening to the fun, energized bonus tracks. the background information between bonus tracks is not something i necessarily would want to listen to over and over, but it might be informative for some. Terrific album.
Good 
2007-07-09 - The more I listen to this album the more I love it. "Liberian Girl" must be one of the most under appreciated songs of the century. There's so much emotion on it. He wrote it in 1983 but it didn't appear until this album.
Most of these songs are up tempo. The best are Smooth Criminal, Just Good Friends, and Another Part of Me.
wow I can't believe it's been 20 years 
2007-04-13 - it only seems like yesterday I was a kindergarten student and the song bad was all over the place LOL I didn't end up getting this record until many years later though and it's mj's most consistent album from start to finish with memorable melodies and hooks all throughout and of course, some of his best videos ever, especially Moonwalker. I think this album should get a 20 year anniversary like Thriller because it was at one point the second biggest selling album of all time, with a record breaking tour and 5 #1 singles
best michael jackson album 
2006-10-26 - this album flows so great and the sound is consistent. And don't get me started on the brilliant singing and songwriting. Definitely a must have from michael jackson, and I like it better than Off the Wall & Thriller!
