A true Invincible fan!
 
But do take into account my friends that I didn’t match up the invincible songs with the bad, thriller and off the wall songs… I mean that would not be fair for the poor album!

Lol, you did it on purpose, didn't you? You made a battle between weak and strong songs... That's not really interesting man... For example, you could make more fair confrontation... Like Smooth Criminal vs Blue Gangsta, or Cry vs Man In The Mirror - that would be really interesting comparison. But you are seriously comparing legendary Earth Song and simple Speechles.... :/ That's cool, pal

Unbreakable.

Money. Though I've kind worn out both by now.
Invincible.

Break of Dawn. Is underrated. Dr. Freeze, honestly, I give him more kudos than R.Kelly, especially nowadays.

Hmm... Tie? But I'll play Heaven Can Wait way more these days.

You Rock My World all day every day. I basically never play ITC, pretty good though it is.

This Time Around.

Come on. This is pretty abusive. Of course Earth Song.

Can't let her get away.

You Are My Life I have played way more than Gone Too Soon.

History definitely takes it for me.

I have played both but Smile made me feel genuine emotion multiple times in life. Don't Walk Away is really, really good though. Honestly you could make the case it's the best song on Invincible.

Keep The Faith demolishes Cry. And I actually like Cry quite a bit.

Childhood is easier to go the whole way through. I kinda get lost by the bridge of TLC.

THIS IS SUPER ODD. Whatever Happens though. Remember The Time is great though.

Are you even trying anymore? Neither lol

Heartbreaker I guess this one is basically a tie for me.
She drives me wild
YANA
Little Susie
In the closet
This time around Banger!!
Earth song
Can’t let her get Away
Neither toss up
History
Don’t walk away
Keep the faith
Lost children but enjoy Childhood studio footage makes me feel differently about the song. The video is cringe imo
Remember the time
Jam another banger. Threatened could have been so much better if produced with real instruments. This is it is great example.

Interesting musings.

I was wondering, though: You say you “get lost by the bridge of TLC”. Is this specifically in regards to the quality (musically speaking, however subjective that might be) of the bridge? Personally, I would say it is the strongest part of the song.

Edit: Oh, and also: What is it you find so odd there about Whatever Happens versus Remember the Time?

4 wins for Invincible for me but it's unfair fight (2 albums vs 1). Also best songs on Invincible didn't have a chance because they were put against some of the greatest pieces of music ever recorded (Earth Song, Remember The Time, Jam).

You get an award for nicest layout. For sure! And bonus points for referring to Dangerous’ fourth track by its proper name.*

* Although I might have to take those points back again seeing as you nonchalantly excludes the pronoun from the title of Invicible’s sixth track.
 
For the love of Swedish snus – will everybody stop calling the song “She’s Driving Me Wild”!? @filmandmusic Do you see what you’ve done here? We need to stop this dead in its tracks!

When the kids start singing I'm ready to turn it off. The bridge itself is fine but the climax falls short for me. If it was only like Days in Gloucestershire.

Just feels like two random songs pitted against each other?

Yes to the bolded! But the same could be said about all of the above pairings. Which is why I find it impossible to conclude anything about anything from the results of a poll of this sort.

What you would have to do, I think, is to bring together a bunch of songs and then let people vote for them; the song that gets the least votes is eliminated. Rinse and repeat. With the limitations of the technological framing taken into account, I believe that is the best methodology for this kind of thing.

Unbreakable vs Scream is a great match-up. Like the only good one.
