    As a kid it was The Love You Save.

    As an adult it is a toss up between Bad, Beat It, & She's Out Of My Life.

    It's a three way tie for me with Billie Jean, Beat it(kinda the same rhythm)and then The Thriller..
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies . I am glad to be a part of a select group that tries to take our auditory and visual senses to a higher level: we EXPERIENCE them.... GOT SDA?...GOT SUNFIRE? ...GOT Maggies?

    Billie Jean.

    Man in the Mirror may be the most hypocritical song of all time.

    I like quite a few since I grew up on his music as a kid. Though Billie Jean, as very good, I like Smooth Criminal, Dirty Diana tad bit more.

    Anything when he was with Producers Rod Temperton and Quincy Jones. This is the height of his musical maturity IMO.

    Anyway, I lean more towards the early stuff from the Motown era.
    ABC, I'll Be There, The Love You Save, Rockin' Robin, etc...

    To some extent I think this is generational. Most of us over 50 look on the golden days of M.J. (the 80s as a dark age of music)....we spent a lot of time listening to Reggae and Bob Marley as a 'cure' for that time. So I can't honestly say there are any M.J. songs I actually thought much of and I never bought an album.

    I realize that if you're in your early 40s or younger, that 'was' the music you grew up with and that certainly has a significant effect on one's development and appreciation as one matures. So I respect that! Even if I can't identify with it.

    The two quasi-club hits -- which I loved when I was a mobile DJ -- "In the Closet" and "Smooth Criminal."

    I also happen to be one of those people who liked "Human Nature"...

    I'm not into my 50s (getting close) and, yep, the 80s were considered to be the dark age of music. Especially the, say, 82 through 88 period. My initial reaction to this thread title was "None."

    Of personal interest, my two late teenage children has identified music from the late 60s through the early 80s as real artestry. They picked up on this opinion on their own and that music is being widely played on college campuses. On the other hand, they have introduced me to some really good modern stuff. Rammstein from Germany as an example. Jackson never gets mentioned by them.

    I have heard and kept an open mind about Jackson. MHO has not changed. Truthfully, I think Madonna is a better artist from the period. She sings better and has better lyrics, even if she did not compose them from scratch.
