The spoken dialogue still makes me laugh after all these years...

[Paul]
Michael, We're Not Going To Fight About This, Okay

[Michael]
Paul, I Think I Told You, I'm A Lover Not A Fighter

[Paul]
I've Heard It All Before, Michael
She Told Me That I'm Her Forever Lover, You Know, Don't You Remember

[Michael]
Well, After Loving Me, She Said She Couldn't Love Another

[Paul]
Is That What She Said

[Michael]
Yes, She Said It, You Keep Dreaming

[Paul]
I Don't Believe It

Alot of people criticize this song,but I like it

it's just a nice,breezy,charming midtempo duet

me too I never understood the hatred for this song.Granted,it's not as strong as the other songs on 'Thriller',but it's a good song.

...

Looking back, I guess "The Girl" in the title was actually The Beatles' publishing rights,









...

I first heard the song when I was 12 and got HIStory (though I'd known of mj for almost 10 years at that point through the popular hits) and though it's cheesy, I freaking loved it, cracked up all excited, and still quote it for fun at times when me and a friend fight over a hot celeb in good fun

"I'm a lover not a fighter"

I thought that was Barbara Streisand when I first heard it way back when

For me, the important question is -

Is it better than Paul and Stevie's 'Ebony and Ivory' ???

A tough choice, I know.

I absolutely LOVE The Girl Is Mine. It's cheesy, but who cares.

Actually yeah.

There's something about it that I do like other than the fact that Michael vocally slays Paul on the track. No offense to Macca but you know?

I do love their talking bit. Actually I do rather wanna hear about two men fighting over a girl than "ebony and ivory", lol.

Speaking of, you saw the parody of that song by Eddie Murphy (Stevie) & Joe Piscopo (Frank Sinatra)? That's better.

"I am dark and you are light"
"You are blind as a bat and I have sight"

YES!
