Michael Jackson turned 50 today! Happy Birthday to him! People may talk crap about him today, but cmon, he was one of the best and most influential singers and dancers of all time! My personal favorite song of his is Billie Jean. And who doesn't love those awesome moonwalks and dance moves...Anyway, what do you guys think, whats your favorite song by him? Anything else? Discuss

 

 

 

P.S. Sorry if there was a topic 'bout this already, as I didn't find one.

Well he does have some catchy songs and some wicked dance moves. I know that if you catch me drunk at a party theres a 49% chance of me breaking out my terrible impression of him, 51% chance of me making a fool of myself and a 100% chance of me being awsome.

Just a quick note, please don't let this topic fall into accusing Michael Jackson of paedophillia etc, the verdict by the courts was not guilty, so we'll have no slandering of him.

 

 

 

Thanks,

I've always thought that Thriller was his best, just all the factors like the epic dancing, all the zombies etc, made it awesome. :P

Hate his latest music. Still the best dancer in the world, though.

 

 

 

Probably Billie Jean, or Beat It.

Earth Song, it's so dramatic. :P

Thriller, and anyone who says otherwise is lying.

Black or white.

 

But Thriller made me laugh the first time I watched it...didn't expect the zombies to start dancing. Added abit of humour to horror as well as being catchy.

 

But 'Black or White' is still the best. (Along with smooth criminal and 'Bad')

 

Can't make up my mind

I'm going to plump for some of his really early stuff:

 

 

 

was on The Jackson 5's ABC album, a cover of a Stevie Wonder song. The song's great, but just listen to Michael ripping into the vocals in this, it's amazing. He was 10 years old when he recorded this. Puts every pseudo-talented wannabe tweenage popstar to shame. What a talent that guy had.

 

 

 

Of course his slightly later stuff was great as well.

I'm going to have to go with

Billie Jean is awesome when Chris Cornell does it.

 

 

 

Rockin' Robin owns all though.

Thriller =D

I'll say Thriller, as it is the only one I know.

Thriller is ftw. I have the vinyl :twss:

I'm going to have to go with Thriller. Can't beat those dance moves and a creepy music video to boot.

I like Billie Jean, but the Guitar solo in Beat it is amazing.

 

But Thriller wins just because of the video :P

 

 

 

(But everyone loves the Weird Al Yankovic versions of his songs)

I'm gonna say Smooth Criminal... but I don't know if that's because I'm really rating AAF's cover version.

Thriller, Bad and Smooth Criminal. Can't pick, they're all pretty good.

His music with jackson five was good.

I'll say Thriller, as it is the only one I know.

 

 

 

You gotta hear some more Michael :

 

All the accusations aside, I think he was an incredible artist and dancer. Totally revolutionised pop music. My favourite song is PYT. I also love Billie Jean, but who doesn't?

Thriller and Beat it

Billie Jean. 8-)

'cause this is THRILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Umm, I have heard like, half of Thriller?

 

 

 

So yeah, my favorite song by him is the first half of thriller.

thriller duh

Beat it or smooth criminal.
