Bad é o sétimo álbum de estúdio em carreira solo lançado por Michael Jackson pela Epic em de 1987, que figura como a última das três colaborações do cantor com o produtor Quincy Jones. Nos anos 1980, recebeu críticas severas da imprensa e foi considerado pouco ousado na comparação com álbuns anteriores do astro, principalmente em comparação à Thriller, seu álbum anterior de 1982 — O mais vendido e bem sucedido de todos os tempos.

Em contrapartida, porém, foi bem recebido pelo público e vendeu entre 30 a 45 milhões de cópias em todo o mundo, segundo listas do ano de 2012. Estreou em 1º das paradas de sucesso em 25 países, e permaneceu, durante algum tempo, como o segundo disco mais vendido da história.

Um recorde de nove canções foram lançadas como compacto durante a divulgação de Bad. Cinco delas chegaram à  nos Estados Unidos: "I Just Can't Stop Loving You", "Bad", "The Way You Make Me Feel", "Man in the Mirror" e "Dirty Diana". Foi a primeira vez que um artista colocou cinco músicas de um mesmo álbum em 1º lugar na história da música. Uma sexta canção, "Another Part of Me", ainda chegou ao topo da lista de black music. Nos EUA foram cinco singles em #1 e seis no restante do mundo.

Your body is mine

Gonna tell you right

Just show your face

In broad daylight

I'm telling you

On how I feel

Gonna hurt your mind

Don't shoot to kill

Come on.

Come on.

Lay it on me

All right...

I'm giving you

On count of three

To show your stuff

Or let it be...

I'm telling you

Just watch your mouth

I know your game

What you're about

Well they say the sky's the limit

And to me that's really true

But my friend you have seen nothin'

Just wait 'til I get through...

Because I'm bad, I'm bad.

Come on.

You know I'm bad, I'm bad.

You know it.

And the whole world has to answer right now

Just to tell you once again,

Who's bad...

The word is out

You're doin' wrong

Gonna lock you up

Before too long,

Your lyin' eyes

Gonna tell you right

So listen up

Don't make a fight,

Your talk is cheap

You're not a man

You're throwin' stones

To hide your hands

But they say the sky's the limit

And to me that's really true

And my friends you have seen nothin'

Just wait 'til I get through...

Because I'm bad, I'm bad.

Come on.

You know I'm bad, I'm bad.

You know it.

This could be a better place

If you don't like what I'm sayin'

Then won't slap my face...

Because I'm bad, I'm bad.
