As we all know, "You Are My Life" replaced "Shout" on Invincible just 8 weeks before the album came out. Do you think that was the right decision? I definitely think it was the wrong decision because there are too many ballads on Invincible. If "You Are My Life" should have replaced any track, it should have only been one of the ballads, not one of the uptempo songs.

Great, my voice won't be lonely now. I love YAML. Always pictured the bride and father dancing to this song at a wedding. I think it goes well with any slow dance.

Shout would have been cool. YAML would actually be a great song to unearth from the vault.

That's a great way of thinking....

If you are my life had been a hyped up unreleased ballad and we eventually heard it - we would have all lost our shit in amazement.

Days in Gloucestershire as an example, sounds pleasant and fans would be excited to hear it in great quality and fully complete but YAML is a better song in general.

Unreleased tracks have a certain mystery about them and fans are desperate to hear them but rarely are they better than what's already on the Album.
 
YAML, but shout is cool as a b-side.

MJ should have released more b-side songs instead of remixes...
 
Shout is honestly the only MJ track that I personally doesn't get any enjoyment out of. It's trying too hard to be edgy and is way too chaotic and messy for my taste.

You Are My Life on the other side is a great tune. Not one of Michael's best by any means, but it's still a great song!

YAML is forgotten when the song ends, while Shout still hurts. In many ways.
