Jacko CANON



Following Wednesday's Thriller poll, it's probably time we sorted out just which of Michael Jackson's UK Top 40 hits are Thrilling and which are steaming piles of Bubbles! I can't even begin to describe all the bonkers things our Michael has done, so let's get on with the ticking!

To keep things manageable I've left off the Jackson Five material (enough for its own canon really) except where Michael is credited separately. You have SIXTEEN ticks to denote your Jacko love!

Who Is It?

I had to google to find out that this is the song with the amazing lyric [livejournal.com profile] dubdobdee is always quoting (http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=%22agony+inside+a+dying+head%22&meta=). I might now go and tick it despite not knowing remotely how it goes. Can anyone YSI it?

Yeah, I've never heard this one either.

Is a great song (that I only have on tape); but isn't the one that Mark's always quoting "Threatened" (which unfortunately wasn't a single)?

Or maybe I'm the one who's always quoting "Threatened":

You're trapped in halls and my face is the walls
I'm the floor when you fall, and when you scream it's 'cause of me
I'm the living dead, the dark thoughts inside your head
I know just what you said

Better sound on this one, though it's not the real vid.

My work blocks YouTube - I am trying to think of a good reason why they shouldn't.

Can you argue that you need it for work-related research?

I can, and credibly (our clients' ads turn up there all the time). The problem is though that if they unblock it they unblock it for everyone, and up shoots the bandwidth and bills :)

I can check stuff when I get home anyway.

Second link is from singingfool.com, which your work may have neglected to block.
