Okay, we should have all heard the new album by now, which is FANTASTIC! Thanks to Sony... it was so good of them to release it for us fans. Probably because it was next to impossible to keep the songs from being leaked to YT and on private websites, but still! The link to listen is posted under Heads Up, the Michael's New CD thread, but for a short time only!
We obviously love the whole album, and I'm hoping everyone has pre-ordered or goes out to buy it... even though they say they didn't or won't. Will post another poll about that soon, but for now...
Which are your THREE favorite songs on his album? I love all of them but I'd have to say these are my top faves in this order:
1. Hollywood Tonight 2. Best of Joy 3. Behind the Mask 4. Keep Your Head Up
LOL, that was 4! Okay so I like all of them.

Dear MaryAnn. Every time i watch a music video of Michael, i can say; oh, this is one of my favorites. But then again, i say that to everything he has made. I favor the entire Michael Jackson, lol. His music is magic, it's growing on you. And i still cry and miss him terrible, can't believe he's gone.

I just love 'Best Of Joy' and really like the fiery MJ vocals on 'I Can't Make It Another Day'.

I hope a lot of members will vote for their faves... this will act as a good gauge of which songs will become hits. I personally think every song is a potential hit... we just have to see which ones the DJs favor.
Remember to call your local radio station to request Hold My Hand! We are NOT hearing it enough!

It's hard to choose only one, or three, or anything less than all the tracks! I love this new album! IF I have to choose, I would say my favorites so far are: 1) Behind the Mask 2) Best of Joy 3) Hold My Hand 4) Keep Your Head Up
Okay, yeah, that was four...sorry! Like I said, hard to limit the excitement and joy I feel listening to his new releases. I can't wait to have this CD in my hands and be able to play it over and over! I have pre-ordered a number of copies, some of which I will give away as gifts, and others so I can have one everywhere I go...in my car, at home, at work, in my laptop bag, etc.! I LOVE YOU MICHAEL JACKSON!!!!

I was actually going to wait for my CD to arrive before listening to the album, but last night, just before midnight, I simply could not wait any longer and listened to it on-line. Three times in a row. Which of course resulted in me getting WAY to little sleep last night. But it was worth it! I love it It´s very hard to pick just 3 songs but in this poll I voted for Keep Your Head Up, Best of Joy and Much Too Soon, which has been glued to my brain since the first time I heard it. I also really love Hollywood Tonight, Hold My Hand and I STILL love both The Way You Love Me and Another Day and I absolutely love, love, love Michael´s version of Behind the Mask. Do you remember the Greg Phillinganes version or the Eric Clapton version of this song ? They are both from the 80´s. Breaking News sort of grows on you once you get past the controversy and Monster is really catchy. Wow, I think I´ve managed to mention every song on the album now! But I just L.O.V.E. it all the way through

My favorites for now are Behind the Mask, Much Too Soon, and Best of Joy. The Michael CD is #1 in R&B, #2 in Pop and #4 in Music on Amazon.com right now.

I like different songs than all of you! Ha! Funny how that happens. My favorite by far is "Hold my Hand", then "The Way You Love Me", and then "Breaking News". Everyone seems to like Best of Joy, but I'm not really a fan. I love the lyrics, but I don't like when he sings to high as much. It's beautiful, don't get me wrong, but I love the others more. I am glad to finally have my CD!

If I had to pick only 3, they would be the following: 1. Hold My Hand - I just love the song and video. It is like an anthem of joy and love for us to look out for one another
2. Behind the Mask (Who Do You Love) - When the song came on with the saxophones in it, I instantly fell in love with it. Great beat and Michael's voice so beautiful and soulful, just full of that youthful passion!
3. It's hard to pick between Hollywood Tonight and Another Day, but I think I'd give the edge to Hollywood Tonight. Great beat and the beatboxing is just totally awesome!
I love the entire CD and think I've listened to it at least 10 times since I got it Tuesday night, and hope to listen to it a lot more in the months and years ahead.

I love Behind The Mask- I love the fire in Michael's voice. I love Much Too Soon, for the sweetness in his voice. And I love Best of Joy, because it is soothing to me. I think that BOJ sounds similar to like a Kenny Loggins type song from the late 70's early 80's. It has that "Yacht Rock" feel to it LOL. Love Michael's versatility. Love how he was influenced and loved so many different types of music. Love him!!

I also like Hollywood Tonight. I can hear the influence of Tito's voice in Taryl's spoken part on the song. It's a great album to listen to in the car. For the next album, I think they should include Excape, Serious Effect, and Do You know Where Your Children Are. All of these are verified Michael songs I think. I think Serious Effect was done with Michael and LL Cool J.

I LOVE Serious Effect! I always thought it should have been a single, Michael & LL were great together!!

I like it a lot too. I agree with you- I think it should have been released too! Hopefully on the next album. Maybe they will call the next one "Jackson" as the companion to "Michael." I am excited because I hear that Sony has at least 10 MJ projects that they are contracted to do. I heard they are gonna release a DVD of one of the Bad concerts! Hope so!!
