* NightmareFuel: MJ’s overdose is portrayed by Elizabeth Stanley and Heather Lang, the former writhing on the couch while the latter enacts her agony through movement. The visceral moves combined with Stanley’s beautifully haunting vocals, not to mention the context, is sure to send shivers down your spine.

* OvershadowedByControversy: The stage musical based on this album is very good... except for the part where one of the major characters - Jo - was originally intended as a nonbinary person and subsequently rewritten as a cisgender woman. The writers and producers have backpedalled like crazy on this in interviews, and a decent amount of circles in the theatre community have caught wind of the situation. It made for some tension between LGBT activists and the musical, and the conversation slowly gained traction, with some arguing to boycott the show. Luckily, in 2022, Jo was re-established as nonbinary and played by Jade McLeod, [[QueerCharacterQueerActor who is nonbinary themselves.]]

Luckily, There's also the fact that ensemble member Nora Schell, who is Black and nonbinary, was denied medical leave for life-saving surgery. Their accusations of abuse led to fellow cast members Celia Rose-Gooding and Antonio Cipriano leaving the show.
