"Beat It'

Thriller was the best video, but the song without the video doesn't measure up to Beat It or Billie Jean.

    I will always connect Billie Jean with the 80s when all of us were so much more naive, and not quite so cynical.

    The video of this song rivals evokes the grace of Fred Astaire and rivals anything he ever did on the big screen. Simply amazing.

    I think the fact that 'Other' is leading speaks to how deep the man's catalog was.

    My favorite is 'Get on the Floor' from Off The Wall.

    A reminder: follow the Code of Honor in the ensuing discussion. Discussing Jackson's controversies isn't deathtrolling, but comment on the event without violating any rule but especially #1:

    Above all else, respect others. Address issues and arguments and refrain from making personal attacks. If you see something disrespectful or inappropriate, report it - rather than further inflaming the situation.

    Ben was my all time favorite- tho I have to say I loved many of his songs, if not all! Michael will be sadly missed forever!

      its such a pity that michael jackson is no more, u know i feel sorry for his kids because they're still very young.

      my favourite michael jackson's song was Black and White.

      he will be missed by everyone especially me because he was also my dads fwend. my family will always remember his good help to us.

      rest in perfect and enduring peace michael. keep off trouble, you will always be in my heart. Forever

          All of the old Jackson Five songs were the best! Plus too many of his songs from the 80's to list them all - he was probably the biggest talent we've ever seen!

              Too numerous to list. As for this vote, it was a toss up between Billie Jean, which to this day makes me want to dance anytime I hear it, and Way You Make Me Feel. That's another one I feel the need to step to. Since I had to choose one, I chose Billie Jean..whoohoo, hee hee hee

                #1.7 - Fri Jun 26, 2009 12:56 PM EDT

                My favorite MJ song, "Human Nature"; my favorite MJ video, "The Way You Make Me Feel" - I thought for sure he had something going on with the girl in that video (great acting or love undercover). Rest peacefully Micheal...

                                      I already voted for "Beat It," but I also really liked his other duet with McCartney, "Say Say Say." It was a nice blend of both their personalities.

                                              I loved all of his music, but it was "The man in the mirror" that had a big impact on my own life. I felt as if he was reading my thoughts when he wrote that song. Another one of my old time favorites was "Ben". Michael had a pet mouse that he would get up in the middle of the night and feed. He would crawl under the kitchen table and wait for his friend and he would tell his friend what he could not tell anyone else. He felt as a child that the mouse was the only friend that he had. The mouse was killed by his father.

                                              I read that a long time about Michael-his pet mouse- didn't realize anyone would even remember that about him. "Ben" has always been my favorite.  I always like him and felt so sorry for him.  You have to know his childhood had a big impact on his adulthood.  Hopefully he is at peace now.

                                                          He was such a cute young boy and good looking teen, what a shame. I prefer to remember MJ when he first came on the scene in the early 70's: Got to Be There and I Want You Back and Ben. For someone so strange and eccentric, his songs could really touch you in some part of your life. He knew he wasn't normal, but he could sing about normal feelings and ideas.

                                                              Ah, man, I can't pick one song by this man. Beat it, Thriller (Which I still believe is the best music video ever as well) Smooth criminal, Billie Jean, BAD, Black or White (Yes, I liked Black or White)

                                                                I've been playing his music since the 70's and will continue to do so. He was one of the greatest of all times !
