MJ RIP-What was your favorite Michael Jackson song?

[victims cry]

Mine was Ben. ok i am old fashioned lol

I also love black or white and when we think of the election of Obama (regardless of party) it has special meaning

[Obscuregawdess]

I cannot pick a very favorite... I love all of them, so many.

"Man In The Mirror" is most touching.

"I Want You Back" is one that shows talent at such a young age.

Those two stand out most, along with "Thriller" and "Scream" with he and Janet. I love both of those videos.

I do love the song, Ben... It is very memorable and sweet. Thanks for posting it, Resigned.

"Billie Jean" helps me remember the infamous Moonwalk...

And then "Will You Be There?" that was on Free Willy, that makes me feel good for some reason. It reminds me of how sensational the media is... Even though facts support his innocence, the heart on his sleeve in so many songs makes it evident as well.

I like this here with James Brown...

So many good songs. Billie Jean and this one is beautiful: Stranger In Moscow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfZz-q8CRLE

How does it feel (how does it feel)
How does it feel
How does it feel
When youre alone
And youre cold inside

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stranger_in_Moscow

The song was well received amongst critics and music producers. James Hunter of Rolling Stone commented "[Jackson is] angry, miserable, tortured, inflammatory, furious about what he calls, in 'Stranger in Moscow', a 'swift and sudden fall from grace'...

I don't have just a favorite..... I just liked his music, from the beginning to the end.....

I heard someone on the TV state that "He was magic"

and I do believe that.



I guess I never got over the puppylove.....I know that's donny, but I guess that's what it is, I can vividly remember being 12 or 13 and just in love with Michael Jackson, my very first love.....

All such wonderful songs! Oh Annie, I am the same way... I took a picture hiding my tears with my old Michael Jackson glove on... His reign was prior to my kids, but they still love his music even from when he was a kid who has inspired my own daughter to dance and sing. She was just crying, and I never realized the impact he had on her until this happened. I did not realize what effect he had on my children! She is 7 and went on the front porch praying, looking to the sky, and crying. My son was saying he is glad he is not in school because on the bus kids say he touched kids and any boy who likes him is "gay," and he says that makes him hurt even more now... I didn't expect this. You're right, Annie. He truly was magic... and will remain magic. I had to have a long talk about this with them. In very recent times, they have lost a step-grandma, an uncle (paternal side) who was very close to them, and two cousins. When they were a little younger, they lost their brother when he was 4 months old and then my grandma, their great grandma, not a couple years ago. Then this... So heartbreaking, and sad but peaceful knowing they understand death a little more. It's bittersweet.

I told my kids how you great folks started a forum here for Michael, and my oldest two wanted me to post their favorite songs, and they also had a hard time choosing just one... But they thought about it and asked if they could at least pick two.

Azhure's (my 7 yr. old daughter): "Scream" (w/ Janet) & "ABC"

Dawson's (my 9 yr. old son): "Black or White" and "Smooth Criminal"

to all...

I truly can not pick a favorite. He was the best entertainer I ever remember seeing in concert!!! His famous moves rocked the whole world and I know we will never see the likes of his GENIUOS again!!!!!!!!!!
REST IN PEACE MICHAEL< YOUR WORK IS DONE!!!

[Obscuregawdess]

This is such a powerful video for me and brings me to tears but also makes me smile and remember Michael for what he was and is... despite his troubles and problems... a very giving, loving, talented, and sweet man.

We lost the electric in our neighborhood for awhile, someone hit a pole.

So now I'm catching up, MTV (haven't watched it in years) playing MJ all day long and a special at 6pm eastern.

Yep Obscureqawdess, I did talk to my son, and he comforted me, and told me one of the greatest things I did was have him around me sharing my music with him. He told me he was also sad and remember's his red and black jacket and learning to dance like MJ. Asked me to get the pictures out.
