Nah this aint their best jam to me, however it is niuce, and hip hop took it over and made a mockery out of it (Gangstas Make The.." - West Side Connection disbelief )

Don't like the lead singer's voice. For that reason, I'll stick with the MJ version. cool

It's okay, but it's a bit too.....twee. I don't know what the right word is. Ornate? Proper? It's hard to say exactly, but whatever it is, it ain't what I want to hear. This is a great track though.

I ain't hating on the falsetto, I'm hating on this guy's falsetto. lol I'm a Prince fan for godsakes. I love a good falsetto, but this guy's voice is too old fashioned and proper. shrug
