The Essential Michael Jackson
it has sold just 8,000 during its firt week in the US only. that tells me one thing:”uhmmmmmm……no!” Rating: 1 / 5
This is nothing more than a wholly transparent attempt to maximize a return on damaged goods. Michael Jackson is so over. Buy this rehashed garbage CD if you must, but there is nothing new on it. For those of you who may not know this, Michael Jackson didn’t even write his biggest hit Thriller. Rod Temperton of Heatwave fame did. Rating: 1 / 5
What is it with this guy?? Will he ever have the guts to release another album without a “Greatest Hits Package” Tagged onto this new material. This guy for 10 years has re-released the SAME OLD Music! The one time he didn’t with a $70 Million Budget, Invincible only sold 2 million copies in the usa. Even though his $70 Million budget was directed to only marketing in the usa.
Why doesn’t everyone go to Cnet.com, go to the Downloads Section & get yourself a free Mp3 CD Ripper!
Then get Jackson’s first 4 solo albums or really any of his albums, Make Copies of them & then BURN your own CD of your own personal choices of songs!
That in a nutshell is what Michael Jackson has done for 10 years! He knows his new stuff cant stand on its own so then we need Greatest Hits Packages Tagged on OR just release: Box Sets, Number ones, etc,etc..
I have never seen another guy live off his past more then him! Word to the wise, Get yourself a free MP3/CD Ripper, rip your already owned old material and make your own CD’s with different selections. Because that is all he is doing!

All I can say about this album is it makes a kid with downs syndrome look like a genius! Rating: 5 / 5
i’m getting really tired of reading these michael jackson reviews giving him 1’s over all that kid stuff. Sure, i agree thats pretty bad but this shouldnt be about personal opinions on the person it should be about music. Michael Jackson is one of the greatest enertainers ever, he basically made mtv and all these stupid jokes and comments are getting really old. This is a good michael jackson greatest hits,its got jackson 5 stuff, the jacksons stuff, and of course his solo hits, there may be a few left out but all in all if its a greatest hits you want,this is a good one.
