I love that MJ embraced this sound in the 00s, how would you rank the neo-soul songs he did in the 00's from best to worst? I added OMC, even though it's not quite neo-soul, it is similar in tempo and fits in well amongst the other three.
I'd go:
1. Heaven Can Wait 2. One More Chance 3. Break of Dawn 4. Butterflies

His voice is incredible on all four songs (despite what the HCW-naysayers say). I remember one time (it may have been on this board) reading a fan criticizing BOD/HCW/Butterflies, saying that MJ wasn't the best at this style of music and should've left it to the likes of Usher, Timberlake and Ne-Yo... and it just made me think, can you not hear this mans voice?? The likes of Usher and JT could only dream of pulling off a vocal performance with such dynamic range, soul and passion as MJ did on those songs. Just completely different leagues. Sometimes even his own fans don't give him enough credit for how utterly world class MJ was. Comparing him to JT/Usher/Ne-Yo as a singer is just an insult. As far as I'm concerned, these songs are MJ schooling his lesser peers on how it SHOULD be done.
I genuinely love all four, but I'd rank them like this:
HCW Butterflies OMC Break of Dawn

Break of Dawn is my second favourite on Invincible (after Whatever Happens). Such a great sexy song and MJ's voice just oozes sex appeal on it.
I could honestly leave the rest. HCW is nice enough, but Butterflies is just bleh and OMC is very average imo.

1. Break of Dawn 2. Butterflies 3. Heaven Can Wait 4. One More Chance
These songs are the heart and soul of Invincible and by far the albums best tracks, along with YRMW and the two songs MJ wrote by himself.

Thought this was rate 4 of his shittest. Only kidding, I laugh because I love. One More Chance is his worst single ever so that's going last Butterflies Heaven Can Wait Break of Dawn Agree with MattyJam, his voice is superb on those 3. I remember just being pleased at the time that the subject matter was so light and carefree like the Off The Wall days after the darkness and despair of HIStory.

1. Break of Dawn 2. Butterflies 3. One More Chance 4. Heaven Can Wait OMC and Heaven Can Wait arent great This! Although Iβve really come to like OMC in the past year. I actually think it works quite well as a replacement track on the Michael album for one of Cascio things.
