They Don't Care About Us. Playing the HIStory album right now - and loudly I might add. Good idea.
Anyone can say anything but "Money" is fucking great song. My jam right now.
"Are U infected with the same disease of lust, gluttoney and greed?
Then watch the ones with the biggest smiles,
the idle jabbers Cuz they're the backstabbers!"

I find it too sad to listen to him at the minute. I hate that scum of the earth can affect my enjoyment his of art which I consider to be pure and entwined to the divine, but there you go. I don’t want to sound like one of those melodramatic fans and I know it’ll pass, but right now I can’t listen to him without feeling overwhelmed with sadness at his memory being pissed all over by grifters and scum media.

I'm playing Jam in your honor of your username sir. "I just want you to recognize me in the temple. You can't hurt me I found peace within myself"

As much as I've tried not to let it happen, I share the above. And it hurts.

Especially the Fuck You songs, and also the laidback 80's stuff when he was a happier, peaceful soul. The worst, I repeat the worst thing we can do is stop listening to his art. It is not what he would have wanted. Push through it and bask in his magic.

Currently watching the Off the Wall documentary.
It's the first time I've watched it, though I saw Bad 25 years ago.

Invincible, The song, not the album. One of the few I semi-regularly play from it. I do like it, especially the bridge, but the production on it is poor & dated. In fact if Timbaland had used production like this on Xscape people would have been going mental. MattyJam - any thoughts.

Invincible is one of my least favourite songs on the album. I like some of the adlibbing at the end, but it'd probably rank about 13th/14th out of the albums sixteen tracks for me.

I forgot how powerful that song is. Thank God. I thought I was beginning to sound like that bird from MJJC who replied to every thread telling us how she couldn't listen to MJ anymore.

If you'd rank Don't Walk Away or Privacy before Invincible then I seriously worry for you.

Cry Well at least they're in your bottom 5. That's something I guess. But Cry in last place? Surely it deserves higher for lyrics alone.. "Will the sun ever shine In the blind man's eyes when he cries?" WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? We really need an Invincible thread.
