Tony knows my dirty secret about Stranger In Moscow. Oh don't tell me that you don't like it Matty. How will we ever become friends? π
I pretend to like it, because I feel like I should. If anyone asks, I love it, it's genius. A haunting depiction of loneliness and the trappings of fame. A modern day masterpiece. Amongst friends, I will admit it's not in my top ten HIStory songs.

One of MJ's best, imo. The beat boxing intro and the fantastic lyrics. So many lines of it are just brilliant.
'Kremlin's shadow belittling me, Stalin's tomb won't let me be'. 'Here abandoned in my fame, Armageddon of the brain, KGB was stalking me'. 'Take my name and just let me be'. 'How does it feel, when you're alone and you're cold inside'. 'Like Stranger In Moscow, Lord have mercy'.
It's just fantastic.

I always feel guilty for not liking YAML π

Yeah Matty, I can get my head around your dislike or ambivalence towards TWYMMF, but not liking SIM basically means you have no soul.
Have you checked your reflection in a mirror recently?

I won't tolerate admins getting beat up in my threads, but I can't guarantee you any safety outside of it. Must be hard to be a MJ fan and not like Stranger In Moscow *the guilt* LOL.

I do like it, I just don't love it. Everytime I hear it I think to myself "this is better than I give it credit for." But, I love so many songs on HIStory, that SIM doesn't get a look in. It would probably rank much higher on any other MJ album, but on HIStory, the only songs I prefer it to are Come Together, 2 Bad and possibly This Time Around.
Man, I really am a special case, aren't I?

Man, I really am a special case, aren't I? I think there's probably always one song that the majority of fans love, but you don't. For me it's probably You Are My Life. Nice message behind it, but I think it's alright, nothing more. Listening to it again now, all I think is 'it's alright'.

I'm so sorry MJ.

I know it sounds like I'm being deliberately provocative, but I'm really not. Lol. My Top 100 is due soon. Something tells me it's gonna be a hoot.
