Very hard, so I will just choose the best that come to mind, no doubt when this is complete, there willbe one or more songs
I have missed out. Like Scream said, when his back catalogue is flawless, it is hard to pick just 5 songs.
It's easy with other artists, as they have more varied output like a certain other African American megastar who died this year, but not
Michael. Any way here goes.
1. Billie Jean
2. They don't care about us
3. Who is it
4. Beat It
5. The way you make me feel
Any of those 5 could fall out in a particular week and be replaced by
Break of Dawn
In the closet
Rock with you
Human Nature
Say say say.
