Same!
But see I can go on youtube and find demos that Michael had made at his house before the demos even got to Quincy.
The demos are not that much different from Quincy finishes.
I think people give Quincy a little bit to much credit especially since Michael wrote all the songs himself and came up with the bass lines and rhythms in his head.
Quincy did not do that, he just put the music together but he did not come up with those rhythms.
I think MJ is really underrated as a songwriter and producer.
Most people dont even know Michael wrote most of his pop songs HIMSELF
ex. Wanna Be Startin Something, Billie Jean, Beat It, The Girl Is Mine Smooth Criminal, Dirty Diana, The Way You Make Me Feel, etc'
He also produce alot of them too
He also wrote alot of the songs he did with his brothers too.
He was not just an entertainer, he was every bit of an artist as well.
