Five pages and no Billie Jean except for a David Cook version? We can't have that.

This is Michael Jackson at his best:

Dude was talented. I never was much of a fan but I can't deny it.

Funny story about "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" (one of my favs from MJ), I used to think he was saying "you're a vestibule" because why in the world would it be "you're a vegetable"? :lol:

But damn sure enough it IS vegetable :lol:

Well, it's a song about rumors, which seems to be the theme of a lot of his music, I guess we know why, and I guess he meant it figuratively. I always knew it was vegetable, but I had to really look at the lyrics to see why :lol:

Two amazing songs by Michael. In the first video you see the James Brown influence in his dancing. The second song Michaels' vocals are simply amazing.

"Just A Little Bit of You"

"With A Child's Heart"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q15-SXpZ3BI&NR=1

Who could ever forget the James Brown tribute.....

This has probably been posted on here already, but it's really amazing to hear this version of Ben without the music. The emotion he could put into a song at that age was truly incredible.

Always thought this one was beautiful, too. It deserves another post on here.

LOL- It's my phrase/answer of the week for everything- "you're a vegetable" :lol:
