"Liberian Girl" is the ninth and final single released from American singer Michael Jackson's 1987 album Bad. The song was written as early as 1983 and was among those considered for the Jacksons' Victory album. It was reworked and rewritten for Bad. The song was released as a single in Europe, Japan, New Zealand, and Australia. Although a commercial success (ranking the top 15 in several countries), the song was never performed live by Jackson during his Bad world tour or later concerts.
