Notes
- Allmusic review
- Chery, Carl: XXL: Michael Jackson Special Collectors Edition, page 100. American Press.
gollark: It *is* apparently terrible in various ways.
gollark: > those 2 solve like 80% of our current problems tbhI'm not convinced that there wouldn't just be unofficial lobbying-type stuff happening another way.
gollark: It would be hard to quantify, but you could probably come up with *some* metrics.
gollark: It MIGHT.
gollark: Nonsense, this is a very correct and valid* line.
