- Smooth Criminal
- I'll Be There - Jackson 5
- Shake Your Body

I think Michael Jackson had some serious mental illnesses that plaqued his adult life, but I also don't think you can blame him for that. He clearly was abused and exploited as a child and just never grew up. Even through all that, he was so talented that his music and performances defined a generation, redefined music videos, and branded him the King of Pop. I truly believe that Michael Jackson should be remember for the lessons he taught us on and off the stage.

Annie are you okay is a line from the song smooth criminal
ReplyDeleteShoot! I knew that and had Smooth Criminal in my first Top 20 list and then I was looking on the net to make sure I got all the good party songs, and I saw Annie, Are You OK? on someone else's list...
ReplyDeleteI should know by now you can't trust everything you see on the internet, or on my blog I guess. Ha, well it is fixed now!
Hmmm...not sure I agree with this one. Where is "I Want You Back" & "Shake Your Body (Down to the Ground)". They gotta be up there.
ReplyDeleteJust saw "Shake Your Body" at #9. So just "I Want You Back" then...
ReplyDeleteYa, I should probably have "I Want You Back" on there instead of "I'll Be There" because I am doing a "party" list and not most popular or best selling... It is just such a good song and so popular that I had to have it. I could probably do a Top 50 with MJ and still leave some off though.
ReplyDeleteohhh buddy i love michael jackson so freakingg much!
