I have to agree. Although if you put up Billie Jean up against the other two, I say it wins out, but not against WDC, IMO.

Agreed.

I really hate comparisons like this though, cause it's just obvious what the winner's gonna be on a Prince site.

It's just stupid.

Prince's songwriting on those three songs beat out anything Michael has ever done. I just don't see anyone could even attempt to put the two of them in the same class of songwriters.

I'd pick Thriller over Purple Rain...I've never been fan of that song...and not that Thriller is much better....


I think this is an unfair match up

Cuz if you picked some songs from Off the Wall....there would be a real match up.

It's no contest to me. Billie Jean is the strongest of all the songs. I still can't pick it over When Doves Cry. Even with no bass that song blows away Billie Jean. music

And that song written by Stevie Wonder, "I Can't Help It." A masterful song.

"Off the Wall" ain't too bad, either. And if you've heard the new special edition, that little bit from that song "Carousel" is pretty cool.

I don't think Off the wall is better than thriller, off the wall is kinda cliche, thriller seems to stand on its own while OTW is like a disco funk album from the 70's like many others.

cool Thriller only stands out because it sold so many copies. I also think Off The Wall is the better album. It kick started Michael's solo run. The best song on Thriller to me is "Wanna Be Startin Somethin".
