The Man! The Magic!
He was a creative and artistic genius! The music just grabs you and draws you in. Simply wonderful! The man's music is magical. You can't stop yourself from shaking your leg or bobbing your head.


Blood on the Dancefloor
Some of the songs on here captivate how Michael was in trouble and he was just crying out for help. I think this is a wonderful remix CD to have for any MJ fan. These demonstrative songs include, Blood on the Dancefloor and Morphine. Others are club remixes for his more recently penned songs from the History album.


New Found Genius
It has so many wonderful sounds and beats. I can't believe that I missed this CD first time around. It is awesome, particularly "Ghosts". What a find.

It is in my IPod and provides an upbeat sound I use when doing my morning walk on the beach. Love it!.


New songs = pretty good, remixes = blah
Don't get me wrong, I like a good remix and MJ has some very good ones out there, but HIStory was not always my cup of tea. If this album was only remixes I would have probably skipped it. I liked it, but I think the newer material here were worth the buy more than the remixes.

1 - Blood On The Dance Floor - The first of his very underrated songs. I really liked this and the video for it. A good way to start the album. A nice Jam ala JAM, Smooth Criminal and the like. Not his best or his worst. But underrated nonetheless.

2 - Morphine - I hated this song at first. Kinda like D. S. on HIStory, but this slowly, slowly grew on me over the years. I now can jam to it. It's sad given what happened to MJ and his passing, but it's a very different MJ song. Kinda like Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. It has it's highs and lows, the lyrics ain't too important but you can sing along, bang your head to it or be saddened in the slower parts. Very unique song for MJ and one of my fav rock songs post Dangerous.

3 - Superfly Sister - I think out of the newer material here this was the one let-down. Did nothing for me and very unforgettable.

4 - Ghost - His 90's attempt at resurrecting Thriller (the song). I think this came off pretty well and I can jam to this song. It's even more than a jam, got that spooky Thriller-like vibe to it. I wish he did an original video to it other than blend it together with Is It Scary for the Ghosts short video. Tell me are you the ghost of jealousy. I love this song.

5 - Is It Scary - I like this song. Not as much as the others above (except more so than Superfly Sister) but it works as part of the Ghost short video package. Just not as good as Ghost song-wise

The remixes are passable. I like This Time Around & Earth Song above the others but I prefer the 4 original songs on this album.


a fan must have
This is not my favorite of his works but there are songs on it that aren't on other CD's of his collected works. I have been filling in my collection of MJ recordings and did not have this
cd. If you are a true fan then you must order this as well. .
