1. Come Together
This music video is one of my favorite MJ videos and the song is my fav MJ rock song. It's such a bop and MJ was really feeling it. The looks, the clothes, the hair. Everything was perfect.

2. Another Part Of Me
This one comes in as a close second. What more can be said about this performance? MJ at the height of his powers.

3.Give In To Me
I love the seattle rock esthetic in this video. This video is more subdued than his other "live" rock videos. I really like the electricity thing. I remember being blown away by that effect when i was little.

4. Dirty Diana
This video has never been one of my favorite but I think it's good. It's very glam rock and he pulls it off.

5. One More Chance
Though unfinished, it's very bittersweet and a nice inversion of a performance for a crowd.

Great idea my friend!

1. Another Part Of Me
A perfect glimpse of Michaelmania. Michael was at his peak here and the thing I love about this particularly is the huge grin on Mike's face throughout. A joy to watch, amazing vocals and man is it funky.

2. Dirty Diana
One of the first short films I remember seeing. Mike just owned the stage throughout his career, but he mastered his skills during the Bad era. I love the moment were he spins drops onto his knees as the spotlight comes up, an iconic moment. The energy in this one is what I love, it feels dangerous and tense not like the fun adventure the other films had been

3. Give In To Me
This is one of the first films that was an adult MJ film in my mind. It's not him trying to be adult, it's him being an adult if that makes sense. I love the feel of this one, it's like DD but it feels a little bit more intimate a setting. MJ and Slash perform great together and this feels like a rock video with some MJ stardust

4. Come Together
The swagger MJ had here was unmatched, the man was at his coolest here. Mike did with the video and the song itself what The Beatles couldn't, he made it sexy. I showed this to my girlfriend when we first started dating, her reaction was "damn I didn't know Michael was this sexy." That still makes me laugh when I watch this one. I love his almost arrogance in this one, it was like he was performing a character.

You said it best mate, bittersweet. It was nice to see more was planned for this single in 2003 and I like the video because it feels like MJ is giving us the audience a peak behind the curtain and just performing rather than doing one of his fantastic elaborate short films, which suits the song. If only he had finished the video
