Larry Flick from Billboard wrote, 'Produced by the artist with Teddy Riley this track chugs with a pleasant jeep-styled groove that provides a firm foundation for a lip-smacking vocal and a harmony-laden hook that is downright unshakable.' He added that it is a 'winning jam'. Regardless, the majority of Sanchez' original remixes remain unreleased, and are only available on a rare digital audio tape distributed among label executives. It is likely that the reason some of these remixes were released as part of this single is due to its association with the Dangerous album, since it was originally created during its recording sessions. However, the single was cancelled, and all of the remixes were shelved. 'Dangerous' was originally intended to be the tenth single from that album, and Roger Sanchez, who previously remixed ' Jam' and ' Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough', was once again commissioned to create several remixes of the song in time for its release as a single in early 1994. Included throughout releases of the single are three remixes of the song ' Dangerous' from Jackson's album of the same name. However, in an interview with Adrian Grant, Jackson denied that the song was about AIDS. Neil Strauss of The New York Times suggests that the predatory woman in the title track, 'Susie', is a metaphor for AIDS. Jackson incorporates many of the vocal traits associated with his work, such as hiccups and gasps. Genres that have been attributed to the song are dance, funk and new jack swing. Jackson's vocal range on the track is C 3–B ♭ 5 and aspects of the song are performed in the key F minor.

Instruments played in the song include a guitar and piano, the latter of which has an F 2–E ♭ 5 range in scientific pitch notation. In a Making Michael interview, Matt Forger mentioned that when work began on the album, they used the original Teddy Riley DAT version (which Riley played to Jackson when he came to work on 'Dangerous') which they took to Montreux where Jackson recorded his vocals. Riley wanted to update the musical composition before it appeared on the remix album. Riley was reportedly upset that Jackson did not call him to 'vacuum clean this old master' upon realizing it would be included on Blood on the Dance Floor: HIStory in the Mix. Teddy Riley came up with the song's title while Jackson recorded the piece for his Dangerous album in 1991-it failed to make the final track listing. 'Blood on the Dance Floor' was the only track from the remix album performed on the HIStory World Tour. It centered on Susie seducing Jackson in a courtship 'dance', before opening a switchblade. The song was promoted with a music video that premiered on Top of the Pops. Reviews at the time of release were largely mixed, but contemporary reviews have been favorable.

Others commented on the song's perceived aggressive tone and the vocal style, the broad genres heard and possible lyrical interpretations of the song. Commentators compared 'Blood on the Dance Floor' to music from Dangerous. It also reached the top 10 several other countries, including Australia, Finland, Germany, Netherlands, Norway and Sweden. The single peaked at number 42 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and reached number one in Denmark, New Zealand, Spain and the United Kingdom. The composition explores a variety of genres ranging from funk to new jack swing. One interpretation of the song describes a predatory woman named Susie who seduces Jackson before plotting to stab him with a knife. However, it did not appear on that record and was worked on further for its commercial release in 1997. Jackson and Teddy Riley created the track in time for the 1991 release of Dangerous. ' Blood on the Dance Floor' is a song by American singer-songwriter Michael Jackson, released as the first single from the remix album Blood on the Dance Floor: HIStory in the Mix (1997).
