Originally released in 1987, Bad was the third epic album from Michael Jackson, following 1979's Off The Wall and 1982's Thriller.

Moving away from soul and expanding his sound to incorporate rock and dance elements, Bad managed to spawn five top ten hits. These hits include the title track, "Bad", "Dirty Diana", "The Way You Make Me Feel", "Smooth Criminal", and his third solo number one, "I Just Can't Stop Loving You".
