I had to do it

Say what you will, but I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE me some Michael Jackson. ALWAYS HAVE. I endured lots of ridicule through junior high and high school because of my loyalty to MJ. But, people, he was amazing! He revolutionized music and especially DANCE. I have worshipped the dance moves of Michael since I was 6 years old and my mother taught me and my sisters a dance to "Beat It." I had to pay tribute. He was amazing, an icon, the center of my love for music and dance for my whole life. I have been mourning him for a very long time already.

In Memorium:
My top five MJ music videos:

5. Remember the Time (super cheesy, but amazing dancing.)
4. Beat It
3. Thriller
2. Scream (With Janet)
1. Smooth Criminal--(If you think Thriller is his best dance video, then you are not a true fan. The dance sequence in this gives me goose bumps!)

My top five MJ songs:
5. Say, Say, Say (with Paul McCartney)
4. Billie Jean
3. Human Nature
2. The Way You Make Me Feel
1. Who's Loving You? (From the Jackson 5)

I could go on and on. But, this video speaks for itself. God bless you, Michael Jackson.

He did have serious talent!!! I also have been missing him for awhile now and it's sad to see how the last years of his life went down. Lastly, to appreciate the moves you had to be able to do some moves and you definately had some moves!

Totally agree with your choices for top videos! I completely forgot about the Scream video...that one is fabulous.
