>> STATUS READOUT :: WHAT THIS DRAWER HOLDS
READ THIS FIRST :: every title below traces back to one man's recollection across two interviews — but the drawer is no longer uniformly single-source. Four titles have since leaked in full or part (one dating to 2018, three more surfacing in a large January 2026 mass-leak event — see the note near the bottom of this page) and now carry independent production detail. The rest remain exactly what they were: a name, and nothing else on file. Split below into leaked/documented and still genuinely thin, rather than presenting all ten as equally unproven. ⚠︎
>> THE LIST :: EACH TITLE, WHAT'S ACTUALLY KNOWN
— LEAKED OR INDEPENDENTLY DOCUMENTED (no longer purely single-source) —
Recorded 2004 at Neverland, in a bungalow rather than the main studio, with ⌜Buxer and engineer Michael Prince — written as a thematic companion/“remedy” to “The Loser,” below. Incomplete: one verse plus a repeated chorus loop; vocals were recorded in the bungalow bathroom. References a real 1970s Jackson 5 tour stop in Gloucestershire, England. Buxer says he cried hearing Jackson's finished vocal — “the melody is just incredible.” Leaked in full; most recently re-leaked January 6, 2026. ■
Confirmed an original Jackson/⌜Buxer composition — not a cover of the Hall & Oates song, a distinction Buxer draws himself. Era flag: per Buxer's own account, this was actually written 1993–94 for the HIStory era, not Invincible — its place on an "Invincible-era Buxer list" is in question, included here only because Buxer named it in the same breath as the rest. Leaked in full via YouTube channel RecordBox, July 31, 2024; re-circulated in the January 2026 leak wave. ■
Per ⌜Buxer, a spiritual track in the vein of “Will You Be There” — “just so cool and so basic,” with choirs on it. Era flag: some fan-research sourcing dates this to 2005, which would also place it after Invincible — flagged, not resolved. Leaked in stages: a 17-second low-quality snippet Aug. 12, 2023; CDQ snippets July 27, 2025; two more low-quality snippets Aug. 6, 2025; the full track leaked January 6, 2026 as part of the January 2026 mass-leak event. ■
⌜Buxer notes it hadn't previously appeared in other public sources — a note that's itself dated now. Recorded 1994 at The Hit Factory with Buxer; Jackson never recorded vocals except a spoken intro. Leaked in full, low quality, August 26, 2018 (sourced from Brad Sundberg's seminars) — this predates the current research pass, meaning the gap existed before the page was last touched, not just since a recent event. ■
Written after Jackson overheard ⌜Buxer, through a Las Vegas hotel wall, saying “I am such a loser.” Era placement is now definitively resolved, not just flagged: written January 2003, recorded 2003 at Neverland/Los Olivos, revised again in 2008 as “I Was the Loser” (recorded at the Hotel Bel-Air) and considered — then rejected — for Xscape (2014). This is well outside the Invincible era (album released Oct. 30, 2001) and is treated as post-Invincible material, kept here only as a cross-reference since Buxer named it alongside his Invincible-era list. The underlying 2003 demo leaked online September 7, 2013. ■
— STILL GENUINELY THIN (single-source, unleaked, as originally documented) —
⌜Buxer calls it “a great song,” no further description. Attribution tension, not fully resolved: separate reporting attributes a “Jungle” writer's demo to ⌜Dr. Freeze, not the Buxer circle, stating it never got past the demo stage and Jackson never recorded vocals on it; part of that Dr. Freeze demo leaked March 31, 2023. It's not confirmed whether Buxer's “Jungle” and Dr. Freeze's “Jungle” are the same song — needs a manual source check before publishing as a clean Buxer-list item. ■
Named only. No description on file; no leak found. ■
Written and recorded June 2000 during the Invincible sessions with ⌜Buxer — a title missing from this grouping in the original research pass, found via a broader search rather than the Buxer transcript itself. Treated as an instrumental/demo-with-guide-vocal outtake; the vocalist detail needs direct confirmation before publishing further. ■
Still genuinely unresolved — do not treat the title as confirmed. The name itself is uncertain; a dedicated re-transcription attempt targeting just this title failed due to audio degradation in the source recording, and no trace of this title turned up in a broader follow-up search either. This remains the one item in this list that needs a manual re-listen, not further searching, to resolve. ■
INTERCEPT ┤ THE DRAWER'S ONLY WITNESS — BUXER, ON “ADORE YOU”
> “Would have been an amazing spiritual track… along the lines of Will You Be There, just so cool and so basic. We have choirs on that.”
REPORTED SPEECH, NOT VERBATIM · Brad Buxer, across two interviews · single-source ⚠︎
? OPEN QUESTION — THREE TITLES, ATTRIBUTION AND ERA
This drawer started as single-source by construction — one man's memory, two interviews, no corroboration — and four titles have since leaked their way past that. The rest haven't, and remain exactly as thin as originally documented. “Jungle”'s Buxer-vs.-Dr.-Freeze attribution needs a human check before it's published as a clean Buxer-list item. “Rich Girl” and “Adore You”'s era placement (HIStory-era and possibly 2005, respectively) should be confirmed before continuing to present them as Invincible-era material. “The Loser”'s era question, by contrast, is now closed — see above.
/!\ THEORY :: THE JANUARY 2026 MASS LEAK
In early January 2026 (first leak dated Jan. 4; activity continued through at least Jan. 23), a large batch of unreleased Jackson material surfaced — fan press cites at least 46 tracks/demos spanning multiple career eras, calling it the largest such leak since 2014. An unverified fan theory attributes the source to compromised iCloud accounts belonging to Brad Buxer and Michael Prince — not confirmed by the Estate, which did not respond to press inquiries. Presented here as a theory, not a fact. This event is the direct mechanism behind the “Adore You” and “Days In Gloucestershire” leaks documented above; it is a separate incident from the 2023 leak wave (linked to a reportedly stolen Brad Sundberg laptop). /!\
