And MJ's best outtake (beats the entire second half of Off the Wall, excepting maybe "I Can't Help It"):

torture is so incredible

And the song ain't so bad either.

16 ballots in at the moment.

16! Poor show, 2 less than the Manics. Hopefully there's a last minute deluge of ballots.

Jamie - worth asking a Moderator here to amend the thread title and first post so that the (new) deadline is prominently displayed.

Jeff W, Thursday, 16 February 2012 11:40 (1 year ago) Permalink

yep done, sorry should have done that before.

Jamie_ATP, Thursday, 16 February 2012 12:18 (1 year ago) Permalink

If this doesn't get at least 30 ballots by the end, it's time to fold up shop.

sorry i've been slow processing them and replying to people, yes i got it

god you know making a ballot is hard when you find yourself cutting songs you've loved virtually your entire life

indeed, i wanted to vote for a few more left field choices but just couldn't take out the obvious singles

Jamie_ATP, Thursday, 16 February 2012 19:46 (1 year ago) Permalink

i'm going to try to vote in this

I voted!

Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 17 February 2012 03:37 (1 year ago) Permalink

feel like my ballot is going to be v boring and obvious because 20 tracks for jackson 5 + janet is impossible, leaving aside mj solo

horseshoe, Friday, 17 February 2012 03:42 (1 year ago) Permalink

here is my janet jackson challop: "rhythm nation" and "if" are essentially the same song, except "rhythm nation" is better.

horseshoe, Friday, 17 February 2012 03:45 (1 year ago) Permalink

I ignored the Jackson 5 utterly, which made my task a little easier.

Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 17 February 2012 03:47 (1 year ago) Permalink

but I selected several songs by The Jacksons. Go figure.

no "i want you back" no cred >:[

xxxp If gives you the Gap Band, Rhythm Nation gives you Sly Stone. you win either way.

I didn't get a confirmation email, should I have done? If not I can just re-send my ballot.

Gavin, Leeds, Friday, 17 February 2012 12:04 (1 year ago) Permalink

Yeah, me too. I just generally don't like any tunes with children singing on them, and young MJ is no exception. Voted for several The Jacksons tunes though.

Tuomas, Friday, 17 February 2012 13:06 (1 year ago) Permalink

No i'm just slow in replying. don't worry.

Hah. My ballot restores the balance a bit. Nothing on it post-'79 I think!

Jeff W, Friday, 17 February 2012 13:42 (1 year ago) Permalink

Tuomas, not even Dancing Machine?

plee help i am lookin for (crüt), Friday, 17 February 2012 13:48 (1 year ago) Permalink

I wasn't going to vote, since I'm not a fan of much solo Jackson stuff, but I can't deal with the thought of ignoring the J5 altogether. Sending a short ballot.

Steamtable Willie (WmC), Friday, 17 February 2012 14:20 (1 year ago) Permalink

I adore the Jackson 5 but if I have to include them along with The Jacksons, Janet and Michael on my list it would proved too brain-breaking a task.

Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 17 February 2012 14:23 (1 year ago) Permalink

LOL, I wonder how many ballots are exclusively pre- or post-puberty.

dead-trius (Eric H.), Friday, 17 February 2012 14:30 (1 year ago) Permalink

man only 1 Janet song survived in my top 20. I think she's all right, but she's definitely not my thing as much as the Jackson 5 or pre-Dangerous solo MJ.

plee help i am lookin for (crüt), Friday, 17 February 2012 14:33 (1 year ago) Permalink

janet suffered more in my ballot trimming than i expected, felt bad but i also gave her my #1

CANDY aka JUNK (some dude), Friday, 17 February 2012 14:35 (1 year ago) Permalink

In my ballot she's the essential distraction b/w Thriller and Bad, and she just soars after 1990.

Speaking of, I hope one of you voted for "Diamonds."

Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 17 February 2012 14:35 (1 year ago) Permalink

Pretty sure my ballot was half Janet.

dead-trius (Eric H.), Friday, 17 February 2012 14:36 (1 year ago) Permalink

Mine too.

Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 17 February 2012 14:38 (1 year ago) Permalink

And nothing pre-1977 except for "I Wanna Be Where You Are."

dead-trius (Eric H.), Friday, 17 February 2012 14:46 (1 year ago) Permalink

A Janet song also had my biggest fall from grace, I guess. If this poll had been done 10 years ago, "Together Again" might have been my number 2 or 3. Now it wasn't even on my shortlist of 40 or so.

dead-trius (Eric H.), Friday, 17 February 2012 14:47 (1 year ago) Permalink

haha please tell me Alfred is the only person here with a Bad-heavy ballot
