Unpopular opinions about MJ’s music?

Some "fans" are so freaking annoying
Some fans on Twitter are so overly sensetive and overdramatic it's embarassing. Say the slightiest and I mean the slightiest negative thing about Michael and it could be something as minor as ''I don't think he looks good with straight hair'' and they lose their minds.

Twitter is a toxic place and MJ fandom there can be quite toxic.
 
As ambitious as it was I wouldn't call Ghosts one of Michael's greatest videos. It's good, don't get me wrong, but I wouldn't call it one of his best.
 
if we are talking about MJ, i think it was his own fault to his own death, its a tragedy, but it was his own tragedy.

music wise, D.S is shite.

I don't know why anyone would put it over Smooth Criminal, personally. Dance moves are phenomenal though.
 
Now that this thread is up and running again, I want to interject another one of my unpopular MJ opinions.

I used to love You Are Not Alone when I was first becoming an MJ fan. I fell in love with Michael's physical attractiveness (originally it was just for his pre-op appearance, but I began to see the beauty of his post-op appearance as well) as a result of the video. But when I listen to YANA and watch the video for it now, I'm not as thrilled.

The lyrics aren't very progressive at all and neither is the video. It's a very generic love song to which there is barely anything special or magic about it (other than nostalgia and Michael's vocals in it of course). Not to mention, YANA also began to feel more tainted for me after learning that R. Kelly wrote (and also plagiarized) this song, which I found out a lot later than I probably should have.

As a result, I usually skip YANA if it ever plays. It used to be one of my top favorites, but now, it's among my least favorite MJ songs.
You Are Not Alone, along with Cry and One More Chance are songs that should NOT be used in any future projects. But I'm sure You Are Not Alone will rear it's ugly head during the biopic.

YANA is a generic love song, but its a generic love song sang by MJ, and sometimes that makes all the difference. I love how his voice melts like butter over the music, haven't heard many other vocal performances sound so smooth as this, so I can understand why it still remains popular.

Now Cry and OMC I could do without. I think the music for Cry was good, but the lyrics were really lacking. For me, OMC just holds memories of marking the beginning of the end for MJ, both musically and personally.

If the song was plagiarized than realistically R.Kelly deserves no credit for it lol. I do like the song still. And it actually hits lately.
