This
Music Monday is all about the King. No, not Elvis… the King of Pop, Michael
Jackson.
Most
of my childhood music memories star him. My brother was, and still is, one of
his biggest fans. He had the "Beat It" jacket, the glove, the "Billy
Jean" hat, and even had the dance moves too. He did almost all of his
school air bands to Micheal. My heart broke the day he passed away. I remember
everything about that day... it’s still
hard to believe… but his music will always live on.
So
sit back and enjoy some of my favorites.
Who's
Loving You
Before En Vogue did it,
there was the Jackson 5... Sing it, little Michael.
Ben
Who knew a song about a
rat could be so good?
Off
the Wall
To this day, this is one
of my most favorite songs ever.
P.Y.T.
(Pretty Young Thing)
Pretty young things,
repeat after me... NA NA NA.
She’s
Out of My Life
Something about this
song just gets me. So sad and heartbreaking.
Don’t
Stop 'Til You Get Enough
Come on, you know you
wanna dance.
I
Just Can't Stop Loving You (with Siedah Garrett)
One of best duets.
Blame
It on the Boogie
Can't help but dance
when I hear this.
Billy
Jean
I still can't moonwalk. Lol.
Beat
It
I still know all the
moves to this and I still want his piano keys t-shirt. Oh, and my brother had
the jacket and the hair. Lol.
We
Are Here to Change the World
Beyond bummed Disneyland
doesn’t have Captain EO anymore.
The
Way You Make Me Feel
I so wanted to be that
girl he was chasing around.
Remember
the Time
As if you could forget
being in love with Michael.
You
Are Not Alone
Even though this video
is a little creepy, still love this one.
Thiller
The only zombies I ever
liked are the ones in this video.
Leave
Me Alone
They never did leave him
alone.
Scream
(with Janet Jackson)
Love this one for 2
reasons: A. it’s badass, and B. he says "F*CK”.
Man
in the Mirror
One of the most powerful
songs ever. Always gets me. Always.
So,
there you have it – some of my favorite songs by the King of Pop. Tell me what
your favorites are.
i adore michael. you and i share a few favourites. i love man in the mirror and you are not alone (even with the supercreepy video! lol). other favourites are heal the world and earth song and even the demo version of we are the world (dorky, but true). i also really like childhood. mj was horribly misunderstood and that song kinda sums up where his mind was really at.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE!! MJ music!! he will always the King!! my favourites are You are not alone, Heal the world, Will you be There, Man in the mirror, Ben and from The Jacksons I love I´ll be there
ReplyDeleteAwesome post!!
LOVE MJ!!!!! He will always be one of my favorites!!!
ReplyDeleteMichael Jackson was, and always will be, the King. No one could ever top the greatness of such an artist.
ReplyDeleteFor me, it's almost impossible to pick a favorite cuz I love them all. If I had to, though, it would have to be Say Say Say w/Paul McCartney but only because of the memory behind it.
Awesome choice this week B. Love me some Michael.
