Advantages: A good range, still holds the crown, pssh 10x platinum! Disadvantages: A bit to much of a good range, broken away with mainstream more.
...sides album just from the Invincible recordings! Similar to this all the other recordings from other albums, as well as in between albums he has done some other recordings never to pass our ears (or did they?!?!)
anywho, onto the album - which opens up like most MJ albums being very powerful (dont be put off with the grunting at the beginning though!) Unbreakable is one hell of a song although they did overdo the sound effects towards the end. ...

The King and I Review ofInvincible - Michael Jacksonby
Lovin_Angel
Advantages: It is Michael Jackson! Disadvantages: Please see op!
...second I found out that Invincible was being released, I rushed to my nearest HMV and pre-booked a copy so that the day it came out I would have my copy ready and waiting (I did warn you!). I have a lot of experience as someone who loves the King, as I have albums starting from Music & Me 1973, up to HIStory and Blood on the dancefloor, plus all his videos and a live performance at Wembley Stadium in July 1997 on his HIStory tour (once again, I did ...

Invincible? Review ofInvincible - Michael Jacksonby
mitchec
Advantages: More up to date than his previous work. Disadvantages: Inconsistent
Ok so this album was panned by critics worldwide, why? because it's MJ of course, unless he's releasing songs the quality of "Billie Jean" or "Beat It" people don't want to know. I want to write a review based on THIS album, not previous ones as other critics do.
Track 1- Unbreakable
Not the best song on the album by far. MJ tries to attract the younger crowd by adding a rap interlude wtih The Notorious BIG but fails due to the repetative beat ...

MJ Goes.. Street Review ofInvincible - Michael Jacksonby
darkchild_ie
Advantages: Lyrics, melodies and production Disadvantages: "The Lost Children" . blurg.
6 years, 4 months and 13 days I waited. Waited for what you may ask??? For this album to be released of course!! That was the length of time between 1995’s “HIStory – Past, Present & Future, Book 1” and this, 2001’s “Invincible”. My God! I spend my entire teenaged life waiting for a shiny plastic disc! Madness!! OK, I did a whole lot of other things in this time – eating, breathing and sleeping come to mind – but I still waited.
I give over large ...

Advantages: Mindblowing ballads Disadvantages: Boring repetitive pop tracks
Ordering Invincible from Amazon.co.uk on Sunday, I got it Tuesday morning, a mere £5.85 thanks to a free voucher. £5.85 for 16 songs. (Not 16 tracks, new albums tend to show 16-18 tracks, some are like 5 seconds long). £5.85 for 77 minutes of quality music.
Track by track guide:
1. UNBREAKABLE (6 MINS 25) 4/10
Hardly the best way to start an album. A quirky repetitive jazz-pop piano riff, very mediocre indeed. A very "typical" pop track, ...

Advantages: Okay not breakthroughs though Disadvantages: Some not so good tracks
After ten years Michael Jackson has blessed us (if you like his music that is) with another album. This is in celebration of his thirty years in the singing business. From the Jackson five (remember little Michael?) up to now I have liked his music, not an ardent fan admittedly, but nevertheless I still enjoy it.
I recall like yesterday the little brown boy singing lead in the family groups of five. But somewhere over the years, the little brown ...

Advantages: Lots of dance tracks Disadvantages: Mediocre singing and it's not really a pop album
This album was released in 2001 and I've decided to review it now as it's taken a long time to grow on me. I bought this album on vinyl for £13 in Virgin and I got the CD for only £2 in Music Zone. It wasn't available on cassette, somewhat disappointingly but there were 5 different coloured CD covers available.
If Michael Jackson had repeated his older work entirely he'd get accused of being stuck in a time warp, and if he'd done a wildly different ...

Quick review of Invincible - Michael Jackson Review ofInvincible - Michael Jacksonby
bradlyjhill2
Tonight's story is somewhat unique and calls for a different kind of
introduction
If I saw you in heaven
Would it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong
And carry on
Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven
As time goes by you'll come to see
That you don't need no one but me
Give you everything you need
Even get down on my knees
Just as long as you believe
Be with me and you'll succeed
Tunnel
Is just the freight train coming your way......
It's coming your way
It's coming your way......
Here comes
Yeah, Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of
Your Tunnel

Advantages: Some of Michael jackson's best songs Disadvantages: too long, and too many tracks that could have been left off
Butterflies, whatever happens, speechless, you rock my world, unbreakable, break of dawn and heartbreaker are great songs with fantastic beats and give you a taster of the vocal abilities of jackson.
But there are other songs that are suited to different audiences. for example 2000 watts...you either love it or you hate it. It is a song showing mj with a very strong and rough voice but The song is too loud and fast and can get annoying.
The ...

Invincible Review ofInvincible - Michael Jacksonby
Pooh244
I was so happy when my friend bought me this cd for my birthday. I listened to it all of the way through. I liked all of the songs on it, except "2000 Watts". That song barely has him in it. I wanted to hear him, not Tyrese. And on top of that, the lyrics are pretty stupid. All of the other songs seem great. I like the fact that when you are listening to it, you never feel like it sounds like the song before it. Also, people say that Michael is old ...
