berrywoman Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 .... and why? Mine would have to be Billy Jean. I just loved the beat. The moment I heard it, even at the ripe young age of 6 (or so.. ) :) I was in love with that beat. Its such a great tune as well... lyrically as well. Video was so different for the time too... ok anyone else want to share? I know there are tons of MJ fans out there!! :sneaky: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnspieler1012 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Definitely Smooth Criminal. People are always raving over the Alien Ant Farm cover but its just not the same without the 'ow!' after the chorus.

airieslady Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Thriller!!! Learned that dance in a class and every year I look forward to Halloween cause they always play that video. I have seen it about a dozen times tonight. I am sorry I never got to see him perform. I have that album on the original vinyl and have the anniversary edition still sealed. There are so many great songs... hard to pick just one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobalt Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Thriller/Bad, leaning more towards Bad I had to dance to it for a jazz performance when I was 6, what can I say? They Don't Really Care About Us (not sure if that's the full title or not but my iPod says so) is also a fave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjaiken Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 For me, it is "Human Nature." It always reminds me that beyond all the dancing and showmanship, the boy could simply sing. Thriller is such a fucking great album. It's amazing and sad how I appreciate it so much more today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambergris Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Right now I'm thinking of "Blame it on the boogie" from those times with the Jackson five group. The song just makes you happy. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PolarMonkey Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 most memorable : definitely Smooth Criminal with that move where he dips reeeeeeeeeeeeally low down to the floor & the Moonwalker movie + video game tie-ins. tho song/lyrics-wise i did also particularly like The Way You Make Me Feel and Bad. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_gloaming09 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 such a tragedy that he's dead. i never really dove into his catelog, just the big hits, but i love Billie Jean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crawlinwithin Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 poor MJ, its a shame such an icon is gone... I'd prob say "Beat It", "Bad" or "Rock With You" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infogatherer Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 "Smooth Criminal" His moves were very awesome in the video. He almost seemed like a robot how he clicked into every stance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deaths_friend Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 its amazing how so very few us are genuine fans yet we can all roll off 5 or 6 if not many more songs on the spot. i cant think of many other artists in history who achieved that level of success and popularity. Beat It is my favourite. a true rock classic by a pop star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anniea89 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Smooth Criminal, followed closely by Don't Stop til You Get Enough and Wanna be Startin Something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobodyseditwaseasy08 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 two favs are thriller and smooth criminal, but thriller is so brilliant and iconic it has to be number one for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
