Billie Jean and Beat It are both absolutely brilliant songs, in my opinion. He really was a special musician and entertainer, who unfortunately had a tremendous fall, as many great artists do.

That's a VERY impressive list.

To me, MJ's music was always in a league of it's own. There has never been anyone who can combine so many different genres of music together and make it feel so natural. He could make a rock song, a blues song, a pop song or just a basic love song. His voice was strong enough to maintain a masculine quality and yet had a soft feminine edge to it that most muscicians had in their youth yet become scared to maintain later in their careers.

It's always seemed very easy for people to despise the man based solely on accusations even when there's no proof, yet hard for them to praise him for the things that there is plenty proof of that he has done.

He has given millions of dollars to charity, has always given thanks to the forgotten black entertainers who made his career possible and seemed to truly want to heal the world itself and the people who live in it based on his actions.

:lecture Michael was an amazing talent and his music speaks for itself. That list is only of the songs he wrote and composed (and sung) all on his own. I didn't even include the songs he wrote but had other people give background vocals, which makes it a shared composition, like Black or White, for which he wrote and composed everything except for the rap solo.

The bottom line is musically, Michael will never be topped IMO, he wrote almost all of his songs, and there are countless others people will never get to hear (he once said he usually wrote 100+ songs per album...and Smooth Criminal almost didn't make the cut, can you imagine the potential greatness of the songs he left out?). People like to judge him for being weird, but most people with amazing talent often are different. But Michael's legacy in music and his work as a humanitarian is untouchable and unquestionable.
 
Re: Michael Jackson makes history, Wins 4 AMA's!

By ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Michael Jackson made history by posthumously winning four American Music Awards, but he couldn't beat Taylor Swift as the year's favorite artist and the evening's top winner.

The 19-year-old took the show's top award Sunday night, giving Jackson his only loss of the night, and giving her five trophies in all.

"Music has never been ultimately about competition," she said as she accepted the top prize via satellite from London, where she is to perform Monday. "To even be mentioned in a category with Michael Jackson, who we will miss and love forever, is an unimaginable honor."

Swift was also named favorite female pop/rock and country artist and favorite adult-contemporary artist. Her album, "Fearless," won favorite country album.

With his four wins Sunday night, Jackson also became the most honored artist in the American Music Awards' history with a career total of 23.

Jackson was voted favorite male artist in the pop/rock and soul/R&B categories Sunday night. His 2003 greatest-hits album, "Number Ones," also won favorite album in both categories.

Australian singer Keith Urban won best male artist in the country music category. His was accompanied to the awards by his wife, actress Nicole Kidman.

The victories came during a performance-filled show that closed with an S&M-themed, sexually charged performance by Adam Lambert (which included him shoving a male dancer's face into his crotch).

Jackson's trophies were accepted by his brother Jermaine, who paid tribute to his late brother by wearing glittery white glove. He thanked "Allah for blessing my entire family" and named each of his brothers and sisters.

He said Michael's message is more important than any award.
