Who Is It was at least released as a single, had a music video and has appeared on a number of MJ's greatest hits collections.

Baby Be Mine rarely gets mentioned for an MJ song. Doesn't even have a Wikipedia article lol

the vid was so un-memorable that nobody remembers that the song has one
---

Eh, not really. It's a great song, but I would put it just outside my top 10. My list would be (in alphabetical order):

Another Part of Me
Beat It
Billie Jean
Dirty Diana
Jam
Leave Me Alone
Smooth Criminal
Speed Demon
Thriller
Who Is It

I'd say Break of Dawn. I liked it when Jackson stopped doing paranoid pop music and went back to sexy R&B.

It hovers around there.

"Break Of Dawn" is pretty good and one of the few truly good songs on Invincible. Wouldn't call it the most underrated, but yeah it definitely needs more recognition; should have been a single in its day.

Thriller
Billie Jean
Smooth Criminal
Bad
Dirty Diana
Beat It
Don't Stop Til You Get Enough
Wanna be Startin' Something
The Way you make Me Feel
Leave Me Alone

Dirty Diana

love the song.
such profound lyrics. the instrumentals are minimum and we are left with vocals to really get point of the song.

he just doesn't sing it solo, isolated. he sings this song with a choir to emphasize the support for each other. then, concludes the song with encouragement for your change.

man in the mirror starts out with MJ talking to himself. Positive thoughts and enlightened surroundings. in his mind, he justifies the change and the effects it has. you think change.
As the song goes on he reflects about what he does externally with his actions towards others. this is an acknowledgement of to put thought into action. you act change. Then the song talks talks about inner change. he repeats the chorus like a mantra. you live the change. the final part of the song is a transition from him to you. he repeats how its gonna be good and to break old habits to make a better change for yourself. you spread the change. the end if the song wants you make the change yourself.
