Number Ones - Michael Jackson

...release an album of their number ones. Before releasing his current album, Jacko had sold over 80 million albums worldwide and ‘Number Ones’ will undoubtedly boost that figure significantly. Whether you have been following Michael since the start of his music career or have only heard a few of his songs, this album is unlikely to disappoint. In theory ‘Number Ones’ aimed to highlight the musical talents of Michael Jackson and I certainly think it ...
...misleading. Jackson has had 7 number one singles in the UK and 13 in the US, so just add a little more confusion to the Jackson situation there is a different version of the album for the US. There are several differences between the two, for example the UK version has ‘Human Nature’ on it rather than ‘Man in the Mirror’ and we get ‘Blood on the Dancefloor’ instead of ‘Ben’, his first ever US hit single. The majority of the tracks on ‘Number Ones’ ...

Review of Number Ones - Michael Jackson

...get her the Michael Jackson Number Ones. Now Ciao, tut, tut, if your trying to catch me out to see if I have got this cd, then I must point out to you that you have the wrong picture on the review heading. Ciao shows it as Michael jumping sideways. This is actually one of the pictures inside the cd and is not the main cover. The CD Cover -------------------- Very basic, white front and back cover with a picture of Michael Jackson with his had ...
...Infact this has just replaced number 10 as the worst. 12) Black or White - Ow starts again, good dance theme of synthesise rhythms. One thing I like about some of his songs is his lyrics. Basically this is saying it does not matter what colour you are. 13) You are not alone - Imagine yourself back as a teenager, it is the last dance at the club and you grab the nearest person and you smooch to this. A very soft slushy love song. Just basic keyboards ...

Review of Number Ones - Michael Jackson

MICHAEL JACKSON NUMBER ONES By helpa4eva I could never really call myself a fan of Michael Jackson, i just liked his songs.. the down-to-earth lyrics of The Earth Song, and the upbeat words to Beat It. So when i noticed the advert for this album, i moonwalked (well, sort of) down to my local CD shop and got myself a copy. 1. Judging a CD by its case The case was plain, but bright and enjoyable. It has "Michael Jacksons Number Ones" written on ...
...is shown by the fact he continues to sell millions of CD's. Michael Jackson puts heart into everyone of his songs, and could beat any of the modern "bands" if thats what you can call them. Thank you for reading a helpa4eva review on: Michael Jacksons Number Ones (CD) ...

Review of Number Ones - Michael Jackson

...it says all. All the number ones rolled into one album. What more do you need for a number one selling album. Whenever Jacko releases a single I really enjoy it but I would never have said I was a great fan of his until listening to the pure talent that is shown on this album. It is truly unbelievable that someone can have so many popular songs but be portrayed as someone so ungrateful and mean. However in many peoples eyes as well as mine he is ...
...the chance to get on. Anyway back to the album, majority of the songs I have heard, as they are classics but never listened to them all at once. This has so many mixtures of songs and there is something for everyone. You can really see how his music has improved and matured. I would say his music expresses a lot of meaning and feelings, which are important in music as it is not only to be enjoyed but to be understood. The Tracks!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ...

...on it. Releasing his number ones albums made me think, is it another type of HIStory album where he had most of his greatest hits, or is it only another money making scam for him to control his recent bankruptcy problems. As we know there are millions of MJ fans and any albums he brings out will be snapped up by them, giving him a good economic boost. However is this album suitable and good enough for the latest generation? Even though his new ...
...of the album ‘Michael Jackson, Number ONES’. At the back you get the list of his songs included in the CD. As you open the CD I was amazed to find four postcards in mine, the postcards had pictures of MJ in various dance positions at various stages during his life, therefore the transformation of who is now can be seen from the postcards. I don’t know whether this is included in all the CD’s as I had pre ordered mine from www.cd-wow.com for a price ...

...not badly priced for the number of tracks you get. Although to be honest it is probably cheaper and better (cutout the naff break of dawn) if you just burn your own CD by copying the tracks off the existing albums, mainly History if you have them, thats what i did anyway. Before i got it for my bday that is. Well thats about it all thats left to say is it is a really good album i'd definately recommend it for anyone who has ever liked Michael Jackson ...

Review of Number Ones - Michael Jackson

There's no doubt about it, Michael Jackson can be a bit of a prat at times; having reacted in totally the wrong way over allegations of being a paedophile, he then proved to the world that he was utterly child-friendly by dangling a baby off of a balcony. But love him or hate him as a person, there is no getting away from the fact that his music was ground-breaking and forms part of nostalgic memories for people of many generations. Whether that ...
...at sixth form or the first late-night debate about plastic surgery, Jackson has provided a sound-track to our lives for several decades. This CD is a compilation of his best hits, ranging from the surreally disturbing Thriller to the 'sticks in your head for days' quality of Bad. I was particularly impressed with the way that you can buy it two forms; either in the usual plastic jewel case at about £10.00 or in a more environmentally-friendly card ...

Review of Number Ones - Michael Jackson

..."One More Chance" reached number 5 in the UK singles charts. Buyers can choose between 4 different CD covers. I bought the 1988 "Bad" period cover and the album was only £9.97 from Asda. The down side is that the songs are all single edits, and many fans seem to prefer the album versions. The inclusion of "Break of Dawn" from the "Invincible" album remains a mystery to me. If they had to include a song which hasn't been released on single, never ...
..."2000 Watts". My personal favourites in this greatest hits collection are "Rock With You", "Billie Jean", "Bad", "The Way You Make Me Feel", "You Are Not Alone", "You Rock My World" and "One More Chance". There should be something for everyone here. The styles vary from pop, soul, R 'n' B and light rock as well as dance. I've given the full track-listing below. 1 Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough 2 Rock With You 3 Billie Jean 4 Beat It 5 Thriller ...

...out of this world! The number ones album is packed full of all those classics: Thriller, Dirty Diana, Bad, Billie Jean and much more. This CD can be purchased from as little as £6, which i find an insult considering the quality of this mans reputation in the music industry. Value for money - Unbelievably Great! Originality - Who is more original than Michael Jackson? You wont find anything else like it. Lyrics - Again very original (Puts a smile ...

...a well presented collection of number one hits performed by Michael Jackon. The songs are brought from many years of successful albums all brought into one, only these songs made it to that special place right up their at the top, "The number one spot". I really enjoyed listening to most of these songs, they are really catchy and they make you want to boogie in the middle of a club. I have never really followed Michael Jackson and have to be honest ...
...number one spot then guess I may not have heard them at all. Its great to have a number of songs from a number of years all on one compact disk, saves from switching from CD to CD doesn't it. Anyway if you decide you like this product then hope you enjoy it. ...

...still has had some amazing Number 1’s and this album certainly is what is says 18 number ones this album is a real treat for any die hard MJ fans or just for someone who enjoys his funky songs. 18 songs taken from several of his albums which have all been successful and very popular. Many of my favourite Michael Jackson songs appear on this album and even though I am a true Prince Fan I’m not ashamed to say I absolutely Love this album. ‘The way ...

I'm not going go bore you by going into detail about each of the songs but When you see an album with MJ's best work, you definitely know it's good! The track listing is as follows: 1) Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough (7" Single Edit) 2) Rock With You (Album Version) 3) Billie Jean (Album Version) 4) Beat It (Album Version) 5) Thriller (Single Edit) 6) Human Nature (Album Version 7) I Just Can't Stop Loving You (Album Version) 8) Bad (Album ...

It was a number one album when it was released in the U.K. but im not sure how it done in the U.S. and it also reached number one in the U.K. when Michael died back in june 2009 not sure about the U.S. again. This one features as the titles suggest all his number ones, including my three favourites Billie Jean, Beat It and Thriller. Also on this album is a song called You Rock My World which Michael release in the later part of his career. ...
