You Rock My World is great.

Than, depending on how much citch you can take, Don't Walk Away, Speechless, Heaven Can Wait, Cry, Butterflies... they have fine melodies but are schmaltzy...

the only songs I TOTALLY despise are Unbreakable, Invincible, Heartbreaker and Threatend (they all sound the same and all have a rap in them), 2000 Watts.

There a few stand out tracks, and the ones that stood out STOOD OUT. imo those where Break of Dawn, Butteflies, Whatever Happens, and if you can throw Unbrekalbe in there for the pop dance tune.

That's a highlight on the album. Other great tracks include Butterflies, Break of Dawn, Heaven Can Wait and Cry. 2000 Watts, Unbreakable and Heartbreaker are also very energetic.

which show was whatever happens used on?

Underrated album, only Cry, Threatened, 2000 Watts, Privaacy and The Lost Children (although I LOVE the vocals on this track) are silly.

1) Unbreakable
2) Heartbreaker
3) Invincible
4) Break Of Dawn
5) Heaven Can Wait
6) You Rock My World
7) Butterflies
8) Speechless
9) You Are My Life
10)Whatever Happens


...would be a great album.

"Invincible" was an exceptionally good album. "Whatever Happens" was arguably the best track on that joint.

Substitute "You are my life" with "Cry" and add "Don't walk away" and we got a deal! wink

"Invincible" is not a great album, but it's not as horrible as some critics and others have made it out to be. There are definitely some great songs on there. I guess it really depends on what you're into though. I've noticed that A LOT of Michael fans are not into r&b and therefore did not care for this album, but if you do like r&b then I think you'd find a few songs on here that you'd enjoy.

Anyway, standout tracks imo are:

Whatever Happens
Unbreakable
Break of Dawn
(This maybe the best ballad he's done in years)
You Rock My World
Butterflies
Heaven Can Wait
You Are My Life
Heartbreaker




-Everything else is just "meh" lol, but most of those songs I mentioned are definitely as good as anything he's done on his past albums. I think that if nothing else can be said though, you have to agree that vocally, "Invincible" is the best Micahel has sounded in a while. I mean his voice is just incredible on here, especially on "Break of Dawn", "Butterflies" and "Speechless". I would have included Heaven Can Wait and Whatever Happens too, but it sounds like he has a bit of a cold in those songs, but I think his voice is flawless in the ones I mentioned. I really think this album is a grower. When I first bought it, I thought it was trash aside from 2 or 3 songs but the more I listen to it, the more I like it biggrin.

Me too. "Speechless" is definitely on the sappy side, but damn if his voice doesn't sound heavenly in it.

Beautiful song. Songs like "whatever Happens", "heaven can Wait" and "Butterflies" (especially) reminds me of the Michael that I always loved. Michael needs to stop worring about album sales, trying to appeal to an audience that isn't his, and get back to what made fans like me love him in the first place. Despite his many personal issues, and physical appearance, no one can deny that voice.

YES YES YES!
thats exactly how i would want it, i think thats how it plays on my MP3 Player.
i deleted the rest of the tracks. Also i HATE The Lost Children, its not just MJ's worst song, is also one of the worse noise i have listened to.. its horrible.

I can never stand SHOUT, i just think its a mess.

Forgive me for being rude, but I think that it is ridiculous to have all of his cds and not have Invincible because of bad reviews. A true MJ fan would get his albums regardless of reviews, so you are really missing out. Don't let a stupid review dictate your album buying choices.
