I love both music

I also like Rebbie`s "Fly away", but that`s from the 90s.

I think i know what some replies are gonna be like, the org is very predictable, you`ll see...

mj did write it, though I could see why you don't think so. IT doesn't scream MJ PRODUCTION the way diana's Muscles, rebbie's fly away does, or even Do The Bartman lol

"Centipede" is the best song that Michael ever wrote for somebody else.The chorus,especially,is superb...I can never get it out of my head.

yeah he wrote do the bartman but put down an anonymous name on the credits, which was revealed by the makers of simpsons in 1998. Once they mentioned that I could totally hear the mj influence in it LOL

I liked the song he gave to Jennifer Holliday, You're the One but I haven't heard it in quite some time.

I heard "State Of Shock" on the radio and it doesn't do anything for me like "Cetipede" does. Even "Muscles", which is laughable, is better.

I agree. He was also credited with the english version of "Behind the Mask", by Greg Phillenganes. It seems to me that MJ wrote better songs for other people than himself.

That's correct.Still,I think Rebbie is a good vocalist.Out of the three Jackson sisters,she's the most impressive,imo.
