Michael Jackson - The Essential Michael Jackson (CD 2009)

I love that it has all his greatest hits on it and it includes the Jackson 5 hit songs also. A must for any Jackson and Jackson 5 fan. Highly recommend this Double CD.

I decided to buy the CD because I am a big fan of Michael Jackson. I loved it because it has a wide variety of all his songs and there is nothing to dislike about it. Excellent CD!

If you like Michael Jackson, this will have most of your favourites in one excellent compilation - if you aren't familiar with the music the two CD's act as a history of Jackson's hits from his earliest days as a boy singer to some of his later works. If you just want one CD of Michael Jackson, and want the best of his work, this is probably the one for you.

Why there had to be another Michael Jackson Best of-album with a similar tracklist as "History", "Greatest Hits", "Number Ones" and "The Ultimate Collection" remains an open question. But in contrast to the Box Set this album is a lot less expensive. So if you like "The Jackson 5", "The Jacksons" and Michael as a solo artist this is the ideal collection of songs.
The first CD starts off peppy with "I want you back", "ABC" and "The love you save" which are without a doubt the three best songs of the "Jackson 5" and will surely put you in a good mood.
"Got to be there" and "Ben" are two timeless ballads which show young Michael's enormous volume. After that the album is taken to another level by a row of sensational dancefloor tracks like "Shake Your Body" and Michael's first ultimate worldwide hit "Don't stop 'til you get enough", which will truly get every party going. Nevertheless the album even manages to beat this with the never-to-be-beaten baseline of "Billie Jean" and the immensely powerful "Beat It".
The second CD presents seven hits from "Bad" including the fantastic "Man in the Mirror" and the catchy "Smooth Criminal".
This is followed by Michael's biggest hit of the 90s "Black or White" and further great songs from the "Dangerous"-album. Among them classics like the tremendously groovy "Who is it" and the bombast-ballade "Will you be there".
Fortunately the album also includes the two undoubtedly best songs from the "History"-album. The irresistible, furious finale of "Earth Song" is probably the most emotional and most rousing piece of music ever put on CD. Not without reason did the song remain on top of the charts for 7 weeks. The original percussive and guitar-driven "They don't care about us" is no less fabulous.
To sum it up, on this album every great song is followed by another smash and it thereby shows an immense variety of music. The two CDs undenieably demonstrate that most of Jackson's songs are surely timeless. Therefore "The Essential Michael Jackson" is the ultimate album for everyone who likes good music. There is no better.

mj at hes very best this is a person that was not treated in the right we should have judged him on his music which is exellent instead we tried very our very best to break him and succeeded all those people that treated him so disgracefully should be flogged what happened inoccent until proven guilty we shall never see the likes of him again his music dancing can only be described as out of this world which sadly mj is

i bought this cd as a tribute to michael jackson, as he had passed away i lso wanted this particular cd because it had the jackson 5 cd with so i was gettin both of the cds anyone could possible need. theres quite alot of my favarite songs on the cd aswel.
when i got it it was played straight away, and my kids who are to young to of know this artist love the music on it to.

Brilliant album for all MJ fans old and young. A good reminder and keepsake of a wonderful artist. I grew up with MJ music and it brings back very special and wonderful memories from my past life.

This is an excellent compilation of Michael Jackson's hits. All the great songs are on this CD. I highly recommend it.

GREAT CD WORTH EVERY PENNY , ITS A SHAME HE IS GONE , WANTED MUSIC TO REMEMBER HIM BY OLD AND NEW , PAST AND PRESENT

After the sad passing of Michael Jackson I decided that I would like to have a CD that incorporated most of his hits, and this double CD certainly fits the bill. It has everything from his early hits with the Jackson 5 up to 2005. Every track is a gem, bringing back many memories, with my favourite track, Earth Song, also included.

Whether or not you liked him as a person, or understood his private life, you cannot deny he was extremely talented, and the music industry lost a giant the day he died.

If you want to listen to great music, shed a few silent tears, and reflect on genius, then this double album is the one for you!

Great music. All his best songs with Jackson 5 and solo. Great cd. Brought it cause i loved michael jackson music when i was younger and as i had most of his hits on tape, i wanted a cd to play in the car. Its great full blast even though i get some funny looks.

Who doesn't love the King of Pop? This CD set includes Michael's hits from the Jackson 5 as well as his solo career. I have been a Jackson fan for 20 years and grew up listening to his music in the US. This collection is a must have for any MJ fan.
