more than 10 for me...

We've got a good thing going
We're almost there
Don't stop 'til you get enough

Isn't there some Reggae cover version of this which people sometimes mistake to be the original?

Shame on me, eh?

Ellie said:

The fact that this song AVERAGED an 8.57 is beyond belief. Add a big fat zero for me! I love me some Michael, but that song is just awful!

Moonbeam said:

OUCH! I love that tune.

Cloudbuster said:

I think it's incredibly cheesy. It's even worse than "The Girl Is Mine" in my opinion. All other 7 tracks are fantastic though.

Moonbeam said:

The Girl Is Mine is rotten. Granted.

We'll have to agree to disagree on The Lady In My Life.

Cloudbuster said:

Sure. Then again, I absolutely LOVE "Girlfriend" and that doesn't feature too highly on that list. It's good that SOMEONE likes it, I suppose.

my #1 "Man in the Mirror"!!!

Billie Jean,I wanna Be where You Are,I Can't Help It,Don't Stop til you get enough,Another part of Me,Stranger in Moscow,Human Nature,You Can't Win,Why You Wanna Trip on Me?,Liberian Girl.

Aww man, The Lady In My Life is one of my fav MJ ballads. It's the fact that he had to sing it in the dark and Quincy Jones asked him to "beg" at the end. He nailed it in one. It's just gorgeous. You want Cheesy, listen to the McCartney pap like Girlfriend and The Girl Is Mine.
