Funny, how Thriller is almost the least popular MJ album here among the fans. I guess that's because we are fed-up with non-fans thinking everything MJ ever did begins and ends there.
Although Billie Jean and Beat it are two of his best songs ever - and also Wanna be startin something is great - but for me Bad and Dangerous have more great songs than Thriller.
Right now, Thriller. It has the best balance of everything for me: more hysterical, edgy and messianic than Off the Wall or the Jacksons/J5 catalogue, but more pleasingly unaffected, somehow, than a Bad, HIStory or Invincible... mind you, I've been massively appreciating Dangerous lately, so Thriller might be on the brink of being replaced (again!) as my fave. I just can't settle on the one...
In my experience that's usually the case on fan forums! And Dangerous is usually the most popular. I too think that there are better MJ albums than Thriller, and Dangerous is definitely among them.
