Behind The Music | Leave Me Alone by Michael Jackson | the detail.

“Why are all Michael Jackson’s best tracks paranoid anthems?“ one critic wrote when reviewing Jackson’s musical attack on the tabloid press, ’Leave Me Alone’. A bonus track, that only appeared on the compact-disc version of his 1987 album, ’Bad’, had its own official two years later in 1989. Accompanied with a video spectacle that took over 9 months to complete, this is the story behind the inspiration, production and commercial reaction to one of pop history’s most iconic music releases. Michael Jackson’s 1989 hit, ‘Leave Me Alone’.
