Everyone has their own opinions toward Michael Jackson, you either like him or you don't. I happen to love Michael Jackson and have always been a fan. His phenomenal career changed the lives of many people that listen to his music, 13 time Grammy winner with 13 number one U.S singles, his entertainment level and style was definitely one to see. With music ranging from songs about love, remembering to have fun, and songs reaching out to listeners to care about one another and being kind, his message is one for the ages. So, here are my favorite Michael Jackson songs of all time (in no particular order because there's no way I could decide) :
1. Man In The Mirror (1987)
"Could it be really me, pretending that they’re not alone?"
Inspiring, life changing, and truthful. This song will always be relevant.
2. The Way You Make Me Feel (1987)
"I never felt so in love before, Promise baby, you'll love me forevermore"
Fun and flirty and how could you not want to get up and dance to this?
3. Human Nature (1982)
"If they say, Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature"
A relaxing ballad saying that its okay to be who you are, its human nature.
4. Earth Song (1995)
"Did you ever stop to notice, The crying Earth the weeping shores?"
A song that bring awareness to the condition of our environments and encouraging you to make a change.
5. They Don't Care About Us (1995)
"Beat me, hate me, You can never break me"
Catchy beat, with a very rebellious meaning.
6. Beat It (1982)
"You wanna be tough, better do what you can, So beat it, but you wanna be bad"
One of the classics.
7. Heal The World (1991)
"If you care enough for the living, Make a better place for you and for me"
Bringing awareness for a need for world peace.
8. Smooth Criminal (1987)
"Are you OK Annie?, You've been hit by, A smooth criminal"
The debut of the zero gravity dance move.
9. You Are Not Alone (1995)
"Another day has gone, I'm still all alone, How could this be, You're not here with me"
A beautiful love song for the ages.
10. Black Or White (1991)
"But if you're thinkin' about my baby, It don't matter if you're black or white"
The perfect mix of pop, rock, soul, and even a little bit of rap.
