Ah yes I remember it! It’s beautiful and very eloquently put! what does The Girl Is Mine do? Gently stroke your temples and tickle your dangly bits? It says "if you thought Girlfriend was corny, have a load of this shit." Both Girlfriend and TGIM are so gawd damn twee! I can only hope and pray you’ve not subjected MattyJam Junior to them! He’s waaaay to young to go through that!!!

Saccharine, watered down... I can't get with the fact that TGIM and PYT are so dismissed on here as fluff or twee. Both great melodic songs with great hooks. Just because they are fun doesn't make them twee.

TGIM is the corniest thing he ever recorded. I'm not saying it isn't a good song, but aazzaabb used exactly the right word calling it "twee." It has a certain charm to it, but it's not his finest hour by a long margin and probably the only track on Thriller which hasn't aged like a fine wine. Baby Be Mine. Forever love what @innuendo141 said about it. What was that? See page one.

I don't see TLC as corny, it's beautiful. I think a legitimate argument can be made for The Lost Children being one of the bravest songs he ever released.

But saying TGIM is corny & twee but TLC isn't is like saying, well I can't think of an equivalent.... Maybe it's like saying Invincible is better than Bad.

Listening to the fan edited solo version, I like it a lot more. And I love a bit of Macca, but there's something unbearably twee about some of his 80s solo stuff and I find his voice on the original TGIM grating in the same way Mull of Kintyre makes me want to hack my ear off Van Gogh style.

TGIM > Just Good Friends I don't disagree on that. I find Stevie's voice irritating on JGF too. Lets face it, Paul kept the best duet (Say Say Say) for his own album.
