Really? What a memory to have to remember.

I totally love the song, but still, I wonder about the lyrics...it's not like Michael to go out and say "Hey, look at me, I am your joy, your best of joy!"
Don't you think he would rather have said "YOU are my joy"? (to his children, to his fans, or his fans to him). For me at least, that would make more sense, it would be more...Michaelish, if you will.
I'm just thinking out loud here, because as I have said, I love the song, especially the "we are forever part".
When I'm listening to it I feel like he's singing in the third person. Like he's thinking of someone that's been there for him during all the tough times and he's thinking about what that person means to him. To me when he sings 'I am your joy, your best of joy', he's describing what or whom he's thinking of. To me it's quite brilliant and unique.
Not sure if I'm expressing myself well, but hopefully it makes sense what I'm trying to say.
How is it that this song gets better with every listen?
With regards to Mr.Michael Jackson's reference (s) to the Moon/Moonlight and Spring;
Moonlight is the light that reaches Earth from the the Moon. This light does not originate from the Moon, but from sunlight. The Moon does not, however, reflect sunlight like a mirror, but it reflects light from those portions of its surface which the Sun's light strikes.

SDeidjs: I get lost in the music
SDeidjs: Its pretty cool actually
Michael: you get lost? i LIVE in it.
SDeidjs: Well its hard to explain
Michael: but i know what you mean
SDeidjs: It just takes me to another place
Michael: the music takes over
SDeidjs: Yeah
SDeidjs: and the louder
Michael: i go to the moon sometimes, lol
SDeidjs: the better
SDeidjs: You do
SDeidjs: Lets go
Michael: yeah in my mind. we have a very good relationship, Lady Moon and i.
SDeidjs: Why is that
Michael: i don't know. she's serene. she's always there. she provides just enough light. and more.
she's diana.
SDeidjs: Smiles
Spring and "springtime" refer to the season, and broadly to ideas of rebirth, renewal and regrowth.
"Spring" may begin as early as February (Northern Hemisphere) but generally are March, April, and MAY...
Please Note: As a promise I made many many moons ago, Mr.Michael Jackson's internet identity has been changed to forever protect & honor our privacy.

It's been more than a week and I am still obsessed. When Much Too Soon leaked, I couldn't stop listening and thinking about how pure and perfect it was. Then I heard Best of Joy, and now I can't stop! Best of Joy is Much Too Soon on a whole new level! Bigger and better!
"It's maaaaagic"How is it that this song gets better with every listen?
"It's maaaaagic"
I agree and I can't believe how many people vote for "Much Too Soon" in the elimination game. :bugeyed IMO that and Best of Joy are the best songs of the album.

- BEST OF JOY (Smile, when your heart is aching) -
At the very least, I now know that Michael had joy in his life during his final years with us on earth. In fact, he appears to have had the Best Of Joy. And nothing could make me, as a friend and a fan, feel better. Best of Joy is the song I dare anyone to claim does not derive from the very heart, soul and immense talent of Michael Jackson. Upon the first listen, during the first verse when the melody moves to a minor chord, I found myself with tears in my eyes. Now, having listened to it fifty times, I still tear up upon the chord change. It is a song only Mike could create - beautiful, happy, happy, joyful, yet still a feeling of desire; a sadness in not being able to have the whole world feel so much wonder. This was Mike to me: caring, loving, open, generous, free, full of hope; also, sad, lonely and longing for more. At his essence Michael to me is the most human of any beings. Only Michael Jackson can do this to me…give me hope, make me feel not alone, make me grateful for what I have and who I am and remind me that there are others out there that need love and help. No other person, no form of technology, no movie, tv program or show of any kind, and certainly nothing deceptive will ever touch that part of my soul. In that vein, the album is worth every penny and more just for this providing me The Best Of Joy. Thank you Michael Jackson. You will forever be a part of me.
Are you saying you talked to MJ online? Or is it an imagined conversation between you and him? I don't understand....
