Best Michael Jackson Songs
At one time, the self professed "King of Pop" was truly on top of the world. For a span of over a decade, Michael Jackson could do no wrong. Every album was genius, every song a hit, and every video, a breakthrough. These songs are a testament to the brilliance that was Michael Jackson. Don't agree with the list?

okay first of all he is the one and ONLY person that can sing this song and move those moves so rest in peace Michael you fricken rock!
I went to see michaels movie and when he sang billie Jean everyone in his small audiance at the staples center stood and were so amazed the depths he could still reach after all these years. what did he say just a small sample or something to that affect, meaning he was great and was saving his voice. People were leaving with tears like visitation to a funeral home. It was incredible, I worry though for his mom and children how this will probably throw them back into the saddness of such loss. My name is Billie Jean and as I have told everyone he made my name famous.
michael is by far the greatest singer that ever lived and all his songs are amazing but this was the best in my michael jackson loving eyes - I love you michael! 1

A rare feat for Jackson. A socially conscious song that didn't come off as completely sappy.

Michael decided to rock... and it was good! Just when you think you know who he is as an artist, he breaks genre... destroys it. His scope is too big for it.
This song is my favorite song
NO ONE CAN SING IT EXCEPT THE KING OF POP...

Remember when Michael Jackson was cool enough to have Slash play on his album? I still remember seeing the video for this song premier on the Oprah special. Crank this one up and feel the power of a perfectly written and executed song.
Slash, nuff said
I also remember when this video was shown on the Oprah special. Still to this day, this is my favorite Michael Jackson song. FYI, Youngbloodz, which is a rap group just made a remix of this song with Michael Jackson. It is awsome.

When I was a little kid I went through at least 4 of these cassettes because I listened to the dangerous album until it literally fell apart in my player. RIP Michael. You will be honored and missed greatly, but always loved and cherished more.

More comments about Remember the Timethis is one of the songs michael is most remembered by, its so catchy and cool
I love this song. It's a catchy, romantic and upbeat tune. Michael Jackson fan, or no Michael Jackson fan, this song is one to remember for ever.
The lyrics, the soul, the melody in PYT are just sick. I don't know why this isn't more popular. It's so perfectly put together and tight.
Makes me want to dance.
This song is amazing and not many people know it. What a shame.
VERY VERY Underrated

Epic.
crazy good song
MJ track with the greatest dance-ability factor.
So upbeat and fresh, more people should hear it. Up there with P. Y. T. for a motown/dance hit.
..."just promise whatever we say or do to each other...."
From a time when his eccentricities were just a part of his intriguing and charming other-worldliness.
Its a really good love song... he sounds so vulnerable in it
Me and my brother always listen to this.
Fantastic, he is a beautiful
so sad
i understand him: (
