I'll post mine then and I'll make this an epically long post.
Michael Jackson's 50 Best Songs, including Jackson 5 songs.
50. Santa Claus Is Coming To Town
Classic Xmas song.
49. Stranger In Moscow
History is an outstanding album.
48. Jam
I could have shown the music video with Michael Jordon, but THIS is my favorite music moment ever. The reaction he gets when he leaps up onto the stage is AMAZING! I have this gig on tape and may need to watch it again. If you only watch one video here, let it be this.
Dear god wtf is he wearing though?
47. Liberian Girl
How many famous faces can you spot in this video?!
46. Can You Feel It
45. Rockin' Robin
44. Working Day & Night
43. The Girl Is Mine
42. Keep The Faith
Great underrated song from Dangerous... in fact the whole album is overlooked.
41. Human Nature
I love this song, but I love the dance tune 'Right Here' but SWV that samples it even more.
40. Bad
The original video stared Wesley Snipes and was directed by Martin Scorsese (wtf?) of all people, but this version is much moe fun
Doesn't change the fact that this song is almost unbearable though.
39. Dangerous
Another overlooked Dangerous song, despite being the freaking title track!
38. The Don't Really Care About Us
37. Just Another Part of Me
This song's awesome bass-line was the them tune on the Thriller level in the equally awesome Moonwalker game which made me confuse the two tunes for two decades. I like this one more...
36. Scream
The most expensive video ever made.... the three second shot where Janet looks surprisingly very hot almost makes it worthwhile.
35. Aint No Sunshine
This original is my most played song on iTunes and this has to be my favorite cover ever.
34. Got To Be There
33. Earth Song
The song which sold the most singles in the UK! It's pretty boring and only gets good at about 4 minutes 20.
32. Leave Me Alone
The best of his "poor me" songs. Maybe we WOULD leave you alone if you stopped pulling these stupid publicity stunts... Great video tough. If Neverland was like that I would have risked it all and gone there.
31. Give In To Me
Featuring Slash on guitar!
30. Who Is It?
Into the top 30 with another Dangerous gem!
29. Just Good Friends
Possibly the least famous song off the Bad album which is odd as it has Stevie Wonder singing on it too.
28. ABC
27. One Day In Your Life
Damn, he sounds so nice when he talks at the start of the video. So tragic.
26. Heal The World
Michael Jackson's favourite Michael Jackson song. I never liked it that much myself.... even as a kid it seemed corny.
25. Off The Wall
24. Remember The Time
Eddi Murphy!
23. Rock With You
Amazing to look back at how bad his videos used to be!
22. Music & Me
Why the hell is this song not more famous?! IT'S AMAZING! AMAZING! I have a feeling though that this song will now become one of his most popular after his death.
21. I'll Be There
20. Black or White
I always thought this song was secretly about himself as if to say "It doesn't matter If I'm Black or White"..... Amazingly I don't think it's the best on the Dangerous album though, hmmm.
19. I Just Can't Stop Loving You
18. Who's Loving You?
Incredible voice!!!! Iconic hat too.
17. Thriller
I hate the song, but it's the best music video of all time..... however since we have all seen that lots here are some inmates dancing to it instead.
16. Shake Your Body (Down To The Ground)
15. Man In The Mirror
14. She's Out Of My Life
13. Dirty Diana
Princess Diana's favourite Jacko song and one of mine too.
12. Blame It On the Boogie
The best of the Jackson 5 songs from when the were all grown up.
11. Wanna Be Startin' Something
10. Never Can Say Goodbye
The more I hear this the more I love it. This may be going much higher in my list soon.
9. Will You Be There
Yes Steala- THE FREE WILLY theme.... Tbh I didn't even know it was the Free Willy theme until my above post and then I instantly forgot again until you just reminded me. THIS was the song I was most hoping we would play and had he done I would have most likely been one of those thousands of fans weeping tears.
By far and away his most underrated song..... though the reason that is the case however is that he BURIES this song on the Dangerous album by having two fucking minutes of shit opera at the start!!! WHY!?
Such an uplifting song and imo the best on the album.
8. Beat It
Metal likes this the most due to Eddie Van Halen' guitar solo and that's the single reason why I have itso high too! I love it! Btw watch the video and laugh at the pool tables with pockets!
7. Smooth Criminal
Moonwalker was a shit film despite staring Joe Pesci (again, wtf?!) but this moment save it. I was going to say his 2nd best ever video, but I prefer it to Thriller! MJ has never been cooler.
6. You Are Not Alone
More proof that History WAS a great album despite what people may say. This is the best on it and was written by R. Kelly. Look at ecstatic that girl is!
5. The Way You Make Me Feel
Just beating Smooth Criminal as the best song on Bad. Love the song, love the video even more despite MJ looking very scary as he STALKS this poor woman!
4. I Want You Back
So the best Jackson 5 song ever imo! (I'm not counting the song at No.2 as Michael did that solo.
3. Billie Jean
Surprised? Yes I only ranked his most popular song at Number three. Oh well it's still phenomenal. This is the performance that made him a megastar and the first time he did the moonwalk. Best song on the best selling album ever.
2. Ben
Who would have thought a song about a rat could be so great?
And the number 1 is.......
1. Don't Stop Till You Get Enough
Yes, I am sure you will all disagree with me, but I feel that this song just keeps on getting beter with age and that I love the fact that Michael just looks so happy here and not the troubled star he would become (even though he was probably all messed up before this). Also if Ben is his best ballad then this is certainly his best dance song. It always makes he want to dance and feel as happy as Michael does in this video.
And now after doing this list I am so sad that I will never get to be one of those shrieking fans at his concerts.
Doesn't change the fact that this song is almost unbearable though.
