ODIYL is better than anything on Invincible so yeah he's right. I love ODIYL as much as any self-respecting MJ fan, but YRMW definitely deserves its place on Number Ones. Earth Song wasn't even released in the US, whereas YRMW was a top ten hit. And iirc, ODIYL also wasn't released as a single in the States. Matt, Ben got to number one in the States, hence it being on the US album. Why on earth would Break of Dawn deserve a spot over an actual number one? |

Never owned this. US version of Number Ones. It's always really puzzled me how they went with Ben for the US and didn't have a live recording of One Day In Your Life for the European/UK version. ODIYL deserves to be there more than YRMW or most certainly Break of Dawn. Piss off with that. How the hell am I wrong wondering why a number 1 song didnt make it onto Number Ones and several non number ones did! |

I wasn't defending Break of Dawn, but apparently it was a favorite of MJs and the original plan before his arrest was to release two "new" singles from Number Ones, so I guess that's why it was included. |

Then someone should have put their foot down on that one. Its out of place. ODIYL is MJs most overlooked gem. Thriller didn't even get to number 1 in the States or the UK! The whole album is a sham. And a fraud. And a ... sham. . |

In case any of you are interested. Bela Farkas (now called Tamas Farkas) - the boy MJ saved in Budapest in 1994 - is selling his teddy that he got from MJ because his 8 month old child is sick and he needs the money. In case you are interested or know someone who might be. (I met him in a FB group and he asked for my help.)
