lebei - Judging from your list of fave MJ songs, you may agree with me that the songs from the 'Bad' album did *not* age well, with the exception of a few (Smooth Criminal is one, I also like the song he did with Sieddah Garrett - can't remember the name of it right now but it's an underrated hit of his).

Conversely, the 'Off the Wall' album is underrated.  'Off the Wall' and 'Thriller' represent his best work, easily.  I think 'Human Nature' is the only song on 'Thriller' I don't like.

My fave MJ song has always been "Billie Jean". I choose to remember Michael as he was during his "Thriller" heyday and not as the distorted character he has become today...

Mine too. Always thought it was a much better record than 'Thriller'. The video caused too much hype for the song, and I feel it's overtaken all of his other greats, due to this.

I also like these songs a lot:

Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'
I Want You Back ( well - it's the Jackson 5 really - but hey ;))
Black Or White (Sorry but so ironic)
Don't Stop Till You Get Enough
Beat It

Those above are my all-time faves by Michael Jackson. It's a darn shame and scary what he's done to himself. Such a waste.

Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'

There is a cool cover version of that song at www.res-freq.com

That may be my favorite MJ song.  He had a lot of good songs in the 80's that I was not able to appreciate at all back then.

Best songs: Billie Jean, Beat It, Thriller - it was all downhill after that.

Most accurately named Michael Jackson song: Bad

Again, I love too many - from his most famous times in the '80s, nothing else.  Didn't like "Bad" that much, so you can see as far as I was concerned MJ was going downhill already.  That song was OK, but just not as.....eye-catching?....as the earlier stuff.

I loved his "Off the Wall" and "Thriller" albums.

But the guy himself?  Very strange.  Very suspicious to boot w/his little boys.  It was bad enough he changed himself greatly between OTW and Thriller, looking more and more like his obsession, Diana Ross.  Yet he looked more like her - or at least, more like sister Janet - by the '90s.  Have you seen him at the court hearings?  He looks AWFUL!!!!  BLEEEAAAAH!  I'm sorry, but if you deliberately do that to yourself, you gotta take the heat and a few comments about your looks.  God didn't give that to you.

I think someone should write a parody of his sister's song about him - "Nasty".  "Nasty boy" for sure!

DIRTY DIANA is my favorite Michael Jackson song of all time!  He is the BEST DANCER I think I have ever seen.  Holla back if you agree!  Also did anyone see Justin Timberlake perform at the VMA's- he was copying Michael Jackson so much!!  That's so annoying! >:(

I cant say Im an MJ fan but mine is Beat It.  I think the Eddie Van Halen does a great solo.  Plus, Beat It is more of a rock song opposed to the usual R&B he does.

Michael Jackson was a ground-breaking artist in the 80s before he turned into such a freak of nature in his later years.  His Thriller and Bad Albums were the best, IMO.  As for favorite song, I haven't heard it in years.  It's a song called "Gone Too Soon", a song he did, I think, at Ryan White's funeral (the young man who suffered much discrimination because of AIDS he received from a blood transfusion).  It was a sweet song from the heart because I think he really cared for this young man who suffered so much in such a short life.
