I'll never forget the X-Mas day the family were unwrapping presents and my sister is opening what is obviously an LP, with her then boyfriend looking on happily and expectantly - obviously he was the giver. She got it unwrapped, looked at it, then flipped it around so we could see it; it was MJ's 'Bad.' She didn't say a word, just handed it back to the boyfriend. Never saw him much after that. I've never loved her more than at that moment.

The one with Slash was good, I thought.

This is inarguably Prime MJ, doesnt get any better than this night and point in his life.

So many great songs, so many memories...

Agreed with the take on 'Got To Be There', it's a classic.

'Butterflies' is one of his more underrated songs.

'Man In The Mirror' was very timely for me personally.

'Billie Jean' = one of the greatest songs of all-time.

I was surfing on youtube and every song i clicked on i liked...the one's from the Dangerous Album in particular most were overlooked but were awesome.

Speed Demon is my favourite...or maybe gotta be starting something

MJ's thriller was the first record album I owned. I was in the second grade and I still like it today

Google "dead pedophile" or "dead pedo". Half the results are about Michael Jackson.

I said the same thing when I thought of this question but, IMO Billie Jean isn't just MJ's best song, it's one of the top 3 or 4 songs ever.

Do you know how this song was conceived?
Michael was sitting by the pool just lounging when out of the blue a girl pops over the fence wearing a bikini and shades and proclaims that he was the father to one of her twins lol..

Read or listen to the lyrics and it is clear.

I laugh at all the sick jokes etc but I am a fan up till 87 , after Bad to me MJ died.
