BEST SONG EVER MADE?

I think so. I mean, anybody can listen to this song, and dance to it. Anybody, any club, any social gathering, would play this song. This song is played at everyone's proms. Everyone's Wedding receptions. You have at least heard this song at least one time at one time in your entire life. (Even if you're not a fan).

I think this song was made from a genius. Michael Jackson. The wonderful songwriter that he is. This song is just the master piece of Michael Joseph Jackson. The baseline, the first time he performed it, the beatboxing he does to it, the perfectionism. This song just kicks A**!!!!

Best ever.

Never get tired of it.

The drum track is unique you know the song in the 1st two seconds.

The bass and his voice seem to go so well it times it even sounds like he is emulating the bass with his voice which creates a great warmth in the track.

The track hasn't dated at all.

Multiple hooks.

Perfect vocal performance..... exact timing with the ad-libs, great sense of drama creating that atsmosphere that only MJ can create.

2:47 to 2:52........... probably my favourite 5 seconds on record, lol.

Micheal Jackson finest 4 minutes on record.














I heard he performs the song pretty good as well :p

Best song he ever made was a song he didn't even write: "Human Nature".

As for best songs ever made, you can make an argument that alongside "Billie Jean", these other songs:

"Tutti Frutti"
"Rocket 88"
"Rock Around the Clock"
"What'd I Say"
"Stand By Me"
"When a Man Loves a Woman"
"Stop! In the Name of Love"
"My Girl"
"I Heard It Through the Grapevine"
"Ain't No Mountain High Enough" (Marvin & Tammi's version)
"What's Going On"
"I'll Be There"
"American Pie"
"Papa's Got a Brand New Bag"

...or any other song you can put here can be "the best song ever made". JMHO.

Billie Jean has it all period. voice, Production, songwriting, instrumentation and a vibe that said watch out now. it is his signature song and it is His Best Overall Adult Solo Song IMO. I mean this song has been covered and done in various ways. I mean it is timeless.

what artist wouldn't want a Billie jean in there catelog?

Billie Jean is a standout song period. if you were around when Billie Jean first came out you'd think again on that statement.

Bohemian Rhapsody will always be a more legendry song than Billie Jean i mean yeah ok i see where you comming from when you said if i was around when Billie Jean first came out it would the the **** but i'm sticking with my opinion and saying that i don't think it is the best song ever made i've herd loads of better songs than Billie Jean
