Advantages: Timeless classics from albums such as 'Thriller', 'Bad' and 'Dangerous'. Disadvantages: Is a double CD enough for Michael Jackson's Greatest Hits?
...I have outlined below:
History Begins - Disc I
I will describe all of the songs on the first CD because I feel they are the most well known Michael Jackson songs that people would like to hear about. 1 - Billie Jean - One of the most famous Michael Jackson songs of all time, appeared on the album 'Thriller'. This is my favourite song because of the unique background music and lyrics to get you up and into a dancing mood. It is all about a one night ... ...Overall Rating - *****
History Continues - Disc II
1 - Scream - Featuring a vocal duet with Michael's Sister Janet Jackson, written and composed by James Harris III, Terry Lewis, Michael Jackson and Janet Jackson, produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
Song Rating - ***
2 - They Don't Care About Us - written, composed and produced by Michael Jackson.
Song Rating - ***
3 - Stranger In Moscow - written, composed and produced by Michael Jackson.

Advantages: Many classic songs Disadvantages: Double album rather than two separte releases
Michael’s famous doubt album from 1994 is certainly a lavish affair, but this also means that it certainly isn’t easy on the pocket, retailing at around 25 pounds. The first disk is a ‘Best Of’ featuring 15 tracks spanning all his solo album, and all the material will be familiar to fans, who’ll also own all the tracks on at least one other release.
The second album features 15 new tracks, including a duet with his ... ...well with the earlier material, but there some tracks that shows a serious lack of ‘quality control’ such as the very average ‘Tabloid Junkie’. The decision to release this as a double album is rather strange. It fails as a ‘Best Of’ due to forced purchase of a new album, just as it fails as a new album due to the forced purchase of the ‘Best Of’. It seems like a sly ploy to force fans that will own ...

...best.
I have the History album and this is enduring, there are some wonderful tracks on it, from Thriller to Earth Song. When I was younger he was doing well with his music, and now that I am older I still find like his songs. I’m glad he’s different, people make digs at him, but they are just simply jealous. He has all that money and so what if he spends it on himself.
Can you please clarify for me whether he has a new album out or ...

Michael Jackson’s album History, is a two CD collection, on the first CD are all his old hits which combined are his greatest. Songs like Billie Jean and Man In The Mirror prove that Michael Jackson is true talent with songs that have lasted the test of time. No wonder thriller sold so many albums and a few of those songs are documented on this CD. CD2 are songs he has written now, we have the number ones “You are not alone” and “Earth song” which ...

Advantages: Huge Selection, Good Value, Great Music Disadvantages: N/A
This truely is one of the greatest albums from one of the greatest idols in music history. For me Michael Jackson is still head and shoulders above the rest when it comes to music, especially pop. Even if you aren't his biggest fan there is sure to be a track that you'll enjoy or that will warm your heart from this double disc set. This was Michael Jackson's fifth solo album released in 1995. It contains 15 new songs and 15 of his greatest hits.

This is one of the greatest albums of all time, on the first CD Jackson includes his greatest hits and on the second CD he includes all brand new material. Songs like Thriller and Billie Jean are just the greatest pop and rock songs that exist today. The new material is excellent. Earth song is one of Jackson's greatest songs and the words are so thought provoking, it is about how the human race is destroying the planet and what future will our children ...
