Because he was only thinking in terms of "hits" and when he was on stage he chose to perform only songs that were released as singles. That how commercially driven he was. Always the same songs, show after show, tour after tour... He was more of an entertainer than he was an artist in terms of freedom.
Speed demon is so underrated. Always loved the rhythm guitar riff and MJ's vocals on this one. Fun fact I heard: MJ wrote this after his car was stopped on the way to an appointment for speeding. He processed the situation by immediately writing speed demon right after.

Actually he was on his way to the studio and he was late cuz of it. He was all pissed and Quincy told him to put it in a song.
Yeess!!! MJ again. I wish you could be doing "stranger in moscow". This is soooo bluesy and full of soul.

Stranger in Moscow used to give me chills. Soul penetrating. He sang with so much conviction in his voice at the end of the track.
mj wrote the lyrics, co-produced and arranged the rhythm and vocals. genius
Speed Demon is literally my favourite song in music history. I am hypnotized and jaw dropped and thrilled and excited every single time I hear Speed Demon. This is the ultimate creative genius piece of art from Michael Jackson and Quincy Jones + Bruce Swedien, I have to admit. Unbelievably brilliant and overwhelming. SPEED DEMON ROCKS!!!
Speed Demon, one of his most underrated songs. Great work Chris, as always! Thank you so much. MJ fans love you. ❤

OH MY GOSH! These breakdowns make you appreciate the songs even more! There's something about isolating MJ multitracks that makes you want to own them so you can enjoy them separately from the final mix. I wish this was possible. THERE IS SO MUCH WE DON'T HEAR WHEN EVERYTHING IS MIXED TOGETHER. So much is drowned in the noise. That's what makes your videos so delightful. Thank you Chris! I've always loved this song but I needed to hear this, and now I love it so much more 🔥 🔥 🔥
This song is so underrated. It's so creative to write a song about getting a speeding ticket. Plus, the baseline of this song is insane. I love the groove of this song. It's is so infectious! I love the diction and syncopation of how he sings the chorus and the uniform tones with almost no vibrato.
Michael Jackson's fillers worth even more than nowdays top hits..just saying..Thank you Chris once again for your great work. Respect
I got goosebumps at 'No Stop and Go!' - Love to watch/hear a Dirty Diana breakdown. BAD is my favourite album of all time

I heard Michael wrote this in minutes after he actually got a ticket for driving fast on his bike cause he was late to the studio. Thanks , Chris

17:40 Michael jackson was expressing himself with all his soul is not about technich is about feeling, emotion , anger , sadness, hapness, this part right here for me was a game changer , hearing such a masterpiece voice expression from michel , the way he talks to speed demon as it took all his life, and still blame him for not living , it´s just unreal
His reaction at 11:05 puts a smile on my face lol
11:03 I AM YOU U ARE ME...Literally my reaction at exact moment:)))
Amazing! This is my favorite song in the Bad album. The end instrument is the greatest.
Speed Demon is one of my faves... i could die for his vocal ad lips (min 22:44)

YO! I keep saying this! Michael always wanted to do films, but he honestly wasn't the best "actor". He was a performer and music was his trigger. He was, at best, a character actor who needed to hide behind a costume like in The Wiz. But to your point, he really could have been an AMAZING voice actor. He would play phone pranks on people all the time doing that. You are spot on!!
13:03 the King took me to heaven, love it ❤🔥💓💖
So great!! Thank you. Can never have too many Michael Jackson dives!!
An analysis beautifully done! Loved to see all those little details :3 This made me think all over again that, some people just don’t realize how free, expert and how much ability he had on his voice, like there still who think he was not that great because he would reach some more “virtuous” tone or wouldn’t hold long notes (which he did but not all the time), but they don’t get how hard is to be this agile! Like he could do many many things with his voice, impressive and almost impossible things (for the years of experience and practice) but in such a short time that they don’t hear them, and that’s even harder! But thankfully we had this kind of videos whether this things can be talked about ✨

Where do you get these stems/multitracks? I know there are a lot out there but I’ve never managed to get Speed Demon, Liberian Girl etc
Would love to have heard his harmonies
ive always found it interesting how lihhthearted or happy the chord and melodies are on the bad album but mjs vocals are much more agressive compared to thriller.
I really enjoys these MJ's vocal analysis videos as well as the other instructional ones as they have really helped me to be more confident with my vocals. Thank you for that. Speed Demon is one of my favourites as well. I hope you have more MJ tracks in the future knowing how difficult they are to get hold off.
Thank you so much for covering Speed Demon, this has always been my absolute favourite MJ song, insanely underated and WOW, hearing all of that in isolation, was absolutely incredible. That high pitched segment, and hearing all the extra beat boxing and stomping. Thank you Chris! 🙌
Chris thank you for your exceptional analysis of the MJs songs... You are awesome.I can't believe I could appreciate even more after being a MJ fan for over 30 years the magic, the excellence, the perfection of his art. You really break it down perfectly... Great work, can't have enough
Michael could hear the beats an instruments in his head. He would repeated the sounds and beats to his musicians. His musicians always got it right. Michael used to record the sounds and words he heard in this head.
I remember being fascinated with Speed Demon after first seeing Moonwalker as a toddler in like 90 or 91 (born in late 80’s). When watching the video thousands of times as a kid, I never noticed all the beatboxing and the different instruments like the bass until I heard the song on cassette. Then heard the whole song again on CD like around 2001. It was mind blowing! Everything was a little bit more clearer to me.
Thank you, thank you, thaaank you for doing this!!! This is definitely one of my favorite MJ song’s and it’s parte of an album that was so unfairly underrated at its time! Like they literally called it “the worst album of the year” Now is more appreciated but still just the “mainstream songs” (which are incredible), but the whole album is so well done! Honestly, was the reason why I became such a fangirl of his and then I started to appreciate (and then love) music even more I own this album a lot 😅✨
What a time to be alive.
When there are videos about MJ, I like before starting the video. Hugs from Brazil, brother
am just speechless...about every part of this ICONIC song. I mean all instrumental parts n much much much more important, is his magic voice! I'll be goddamned.
The bass line in chorus is one of the most mind blowing bass lines in history. And you didn’t even mention it!!
Love that his favorite parts are my favorite ones too, ‘cause he repeated them over and over again! Ah! Loved it 😍 Speed demon was the reaso why I would ended up without voice after hearing the whole Bad album, this one and Smooth criminal xD just by trying to get the “raspy” voice, but it was totally worth it ✨
I've been singing Michael Jackson songs my entire life and I'm still learning with these MJ breakdowns, thanks for that Chris 😊🙏
Amazing reaction.🔥🔥🔥I really enjoyed
I’ve been waiting for this one! Speed Demon used to be my LEAST favorite MJ song and then one day it just started to grow on me. Now I think it’s top 3 from the album 😆

Thank you for all this work and for allowing many to appreciate the genius of this unique artist. Probably one of the most original arrangements songs a pure, groovy R&B MJ creation, one of my favorites from BAD album.
Great work Chris, as always! Thank you so much for this video. Speed demon...
LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT. ❤❤❤
I lived to hear the day of the isolated bridge! That was always a gem waiting to be uncovered 😏
Definitly proving that when you feel the song you must show it while recording. Emotions are powerful. Unfortunately not the case of our signers today.
I always had an assumption there was a lotta things going on in this song and guess what Mr Chris liepe u made it right!! Thx for that and also a request can h pls doo the breakdown of dangerous and 2000 watts by mj 🙃🙃 I am really anxious to see that!!!
I thought speed demon was OK at best for MJ but after watching this video speed demon is now my favorite underrated MJ song
Masterpiece 👍
Stranger in Moscow and maybe butterflies...? ❤️
Speed Demon is such a great song! The range he's singing in is fascinating. From his lowest deep voice to his highest pitch. And to hear it like this just makes it even more precious. We couldn't be more thankful to you, Chris. 🙏🏻 Looking forward to the next MJ multitrack. We are sooo ready for that! 😁
You should do Stranger in Moscow. THAT, my friend, in my opinion, is one of his best songs ever made, and so underrated!

I don't sing but I like to watch music channels. And it's fun watching somebody who knows the technique behind the artistry. I'm learning stuff just listening to your reactions.

Michael Jackson ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👑👑👑👑👑
Great to see this video, Chris! I became a fan of the song when i saw Moonwalker at the cinema as a child. Couldn't appreciate all the dynamic elements of it until the 2001 remaster, but it's one of MJ's most impressive compositions. It blends pop, rock, soul, Funk, Jazz and blues into one and the vocal performance accentuates this. The bridge is very impressive but I think the higher harmony on the first part of it is even more so, since it shows how strong and high he can go. Best head voice performance since Don't Stop Til You Get Enough, I'd say. This song is actually a very similar composition to Bad (and even the short film has the same wardrobe and transitions after it on Moonwalker) so it's strange how critics say its filler! 🐰 🛵 🕺🏾
I didnt know this song was underrated as a "filler". One of my favs
written and composed by Michael Jackson - what an amazing talent
"Speed Demon" and "Smooth Criminal" are my absolute favorite songs from "Bad."
I love these Mj breakdowns, thank you so much for making these amazing videos !!!!! So interesting
Speed Demon is my favorite track off the Bad Album. It took some time for me to fully appreciate it, but the production combined with Michael's energy make it an incredible song. Thank you for covering it!
Now we are waiting for dramatic Who Is It and sexy In the Closet ))
OMG Finally we got it. Thank you
please do a analysis on Just Good Friends from the Bad album as well, really high energy vocals from MJ and Stevie Wonder!

Awesome as always with these analyses, and yeah , very rare that MJ had any filler songs on his albums. Speed Demon is definitely not a filler song. It as most of his songs has its special place on the album. Please if possible, do a breakdown of the song "Get on the floor" next!

I don't know anything about singing, music recording, etc but 13.05 has always amazed me, his vocal there are sick. DID YOU HEAR HOW HIGH HIS VOICE IS, an if people think that Michaels voice are that high no, he has a deep voice. Speed demon, I don't know if people know how sick vocals Michael has in that song.

Thank you Chris for sharing. That bass and guitar plus his beatboxing together is timeless and after 36 (!!!) years still sounds fresh. I could listen to it for hours.
There’s so much here. Even how the bass line lands on the 7 never resolving to the 1. Once again driving home the tension he created in his vocal performance. This song is nothing less than brilliant execution.
It is difficult because he had to imagine and create all by himself the way he would sing his songs. That’s what makes him a real artist: freedom, creativity, imagination, expression, Rhythmically and musically in zone. MJ 4ever💝
The world's best musician and dancer Michael Jackson. His style of dancing and singing music never seems childish. He always sang music in deep voice, so his songs are hit and catchy. He was the only person in the world who performed dance-music together in front of live audience. May her soul rest in peace. From Bangladesh 🇧🇩🆒🇧🇩
That is sooo cool. Thank you for breaking it down!

Speed demon is fire with a background story and a deeper message about profiling.

I love your reaction on this song It’s the same for me 😊👍👍👍
Wow impressive 😮😮😮😮 great video! Thank you
Keep pleasing the MJ fans!! Wauww (by the way, Metallica in the MJ Deep Dives playlist?😮 )
Michael was a HUGE Curly Howard fan. He even wrote the preface for his biography. Might be alone on this, but all my life, I've always found elements of Curly's iconic grunts, howls and high pitched shrieks all over this song. That Go...go...go...!!! so Curly. Same as with Bruce Lee, who he also was an obsessed fan, and had a life size statue of him in his office, I always saw movements and postures from Bruce on his stage performances. Just as much as Chaplin mannerisms.
Didnt even watch/listen yet, but instant like. Thank you, man
It would be really great to check the multitrack from "Ghost"
Thank you for this breakdown, if been waiting for this for so long! The bridge and the song in general are just so underrated!
Amazing video and idea. MJ is the one worthy of detailing down like thisz cuz it really is amazing. Great job.
