King of Pop!! King of all!! I’ve grown up hearing his music. One of the first set of songs CD’s I ever burnt for all of my cars had a collection of some of my favourites – MJ, Metallica, Maiden, Scorpions, Deep Purple, Judas Priest etc. But MJ was there always.. Thriller, Bad and History et all!! Have had smooth criminal, bad, beat it, billie jean as my ring tone for as long as I can remember..
Too many of his songs were just too good. If someone told me to name the top 100 songs ever and there can’t be more than 5 songs by one person/ band I would struggle. Some of my favourites of MJ in no particular order are:
1) Smooth Criminal
2) Beat It
3) Billie Jean
4) Bad
5) Thriller
6) Blood on the dance floor
7) Remember the time
8) Black or White
9) The Way you make me feel
10) Dangerous
11) Heaven can Wait
12) You rock my World
13) Keep the Faith
14) Heal the World
Can’t see how I can leave 9 of these out of the top 100.
I can’t pay tribute to him with just this, but MJ, despite all the legal trauma, we love you. And you will live with us forever. My son would grow up listening to you, and his son would too!! Thanks for keeping me awake when I drive, singing to me to sleep anytime else!
If I had a few hundred million quid, I would have bought your villa when it came up for sale and would have lived the way you did or at least where you did!! That I don’t is a given, yet you will live long, your footsteps will always remain etched!!!! You were one of the better musicians of the last century and the millennia arguably!! Difficulties you must have encountered, one can't beat it easily to get to where you were!! Enough said, words can't do justice, black or white!! Thanks for all the entertainment in the past, now and ever!!
