I agree with Bré that 'Earth Song' is over-hated :ph34r: I mean the accompanying performances can be a turn-off but I'd rather listen to it as a song. 'Missing' is good but not a massive standout for me personally. Having said that, I'm not that bothered if either goes as I prefer the other three songs left to both.

 

(I totally agree with the 'You Are Not Alone' hate though, bleh)

Maybe this icon influenced me

 

I am not here for this re-evaluation of Earth Song it remains overblown dross.

 

It sounds good compared to Heal The World i’ll give you that.

Let me just override Jade's nomination for Poster of the Year after that choice vote :whistle:

 

errrrr 'Gangsta's Paradise' to win? :kink:

Jade! :(

Michael Jackson - Earth Song

I mean if we're going by the version that everyone knows I would be voting for 'Missing' as well so I will stick up for Jade here xx

 

(insert my anecdote for about the 100th time that I know and like the original version of that more than the Todd Terry remix because it's the one my mum used to play all the time and the remix has always sounded a bit weird to me as a result)

Michael Jackson - Earth Song.

Earth Song is RIDICULOUS and also FABULOUS

 

Back For Good is the weakest of this bunch, but overall this is an insanely strong five.

Earth Song

I find Missing extremely pedestrian myself. No way does it stack up to the likes of Haddaway, Snap, Culture Beat etc.

You are pedestrian not Missing tbh :D hahaha

both the original Missing and the remix are 11/10

I wouldn't file Missing alongside Snap or Culture Beat anyway - they're not trying to achieve the same thing. The latter are out-and-out club records; Missing is out-and-out melancholy that just happens to have a dance beat.
