Rock my world,Jackson street and Human nature.I love the fact that even after being told that he will not live for than thirty years ,he choose to live the tale.His work ethic is an aspiration because even with all the resistance ,he made sure he delivered quality works til the very end.

Man in the Mirror can be very convicting. It is an example of his depth.

Thriller is perhaps my favorite out of three, the cinematography alone was enough to make its way into the history books. Including his lesser-known song History, the remix is great.

"They don't care about us". I don't know why I like it so much. The lyrics are left-wing but for some reason I really like it.

AGREED! "Rock My World" has a lovely melody. I also find it wonderful that he could make such tender love songs after his troubled love and home life...

I cannot choose I love all of Michael's songs. Earth song is particularly relevant now since we need to look after our planet.

All of Michael Jackson's songs are legends. Billie Jeans, Beat it, Thriller, They Don't Know About Us, Smooth Criminal, You are not Alone, those are still relevant up until now. My favourite one is Remember the time because the music video shows the aesthetic of Egyptian culture and I really adore it. I am very happy I grew up listening to his songs since I was a kid.

I love all of his songs but my favorite are "you are not alone" and "you rock my world". His voice is amazing.
