And why was "Love Will Tear Us Apart" not part of the competition?

Something in the water does not compute, cause you folks have been acting irratonal. I don't hate wishing well, it's a good song. But please, how can TTD/Sandierta Yohoo or whatever he responds to is a replica of Michael. If we were talking about the present day, Sandy/TTD amy be more stable and normal, but Billie Jean is just Class above Wishing Well. So there, enough of my ramblings, I vote for MJ and Billie Jean. eek cool

Seriously! This isn't even a competition (sorry, Darin, I know you're no fan of Billie Jean wink). Wishing Well is a good song and The Hardline... is a decent album, but my vote goes for...

Billie Jean - Michael Jackson - it's a classic song.

I think "Billie Jean" is one of the best songs of all time. Alot of credit goes to Quincy Jones for the production, but that song still sounds fresh today and the tracks are still amazing.

"wishing Well' is cool, but cmon, it's two chords with a little flute break. It don't compare. SOunds like the Neptunes kind of if u think about it..

Holy Crap!!! How did Wishing Well beat all those songs?? What are you all smoking!

I can't believe it's even on that list!!

Billie Jean for sure, considering the options. I can't believe Wishing Well is in #2 spot.
