Favorite Michael Jackson Song

dalakhani · #1 06-30-2009, 11:54 PM

I think even the coach has a Michael Jackson song that he sings to when it comes on the radio.

Whats your favorite?

Mine no doubt is "i want you back". A little before my time but I seem to get into his old jackson five stuff more than the later music.

Very sad. What an amazing talent.

I love the honesty! Favorite video might have been Jam or of course Thriller.

What do you think about the pedophilia accusations?

I have this weird thing where i can detach myself from all of the ancillary stuff. The Michael Jackson we saw on stage seemed like a character. It was someone he became. That character was an amazing talent.

Do I think there was something there? Impossible to say. You would think that after the FIRST time that he would keep himself clear of situations like that so maybe there was some fire to that smoke. Would I let any of my kids spend the night over there? No...which makes me curious as to why the last parents let their kids over there.

The real question is whether or not those kids he claimed were his really were his?

I think he might be innocent. Tito looks like a kiddie fiddler and he's never been accused.

The kids are white. I'd say no.

I don't get people saying he was an amazing talent.

He was hopeless as a singer.

I guess he could do that useless moon walk thing of his. I've seen better dancing when I was in high school.

Did he play instruments (besides the flute that is)?

Did he write music? Lyrics?

Of the last three, only lyrics are possible, and his lyrics were as shallow as Death Valley.

That is, if he even wrote them.

Don't know how anyone can listen to the first 70 seconds of "Man in the Mirror," and then say the person wasn't that talented. O.K., he pssd it away, but he had it. That's my favorite song of his (post-freak.) I'll be there is my favorite pre-freak song, but this is my favorite performance(acting like a lil James Brown):

Thriller. Changed the meaning of a "music video."

Yeah the pedophilia stuff and the crazy sh1t he used to pull was disconcerting, but I don't know how anyone couldn't like his music.

Think I did some permanent damage to the ear drum when Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' came on the car radio the other day.
