I decided to pull out an old CD from the collection for my trip to work this morning and elected to play Michael Jackson's best-of collection HIStory. You may recall it consists of a greatest hits disc and 13 new songs. Someone should sit down with Michael, if that's what you do, and make him listen to some of his greatest hits and some of those new songs. I say that because they are classic Michael Jackson and he should revisit them if he is to resurrect his career. Take a leaf out of Bono's book. U2 went back to their classic sound on All That You Can't Leave Behind and it was one of their best ever.
The classic Jackson speaks for itself. Of the new tracks, when that CD was released, I particularly love `You Are Not Alone', `Stranger In Moscow' and his thumping cover of the Beatles classic `Come Together'. Come on Michael, if you're gonna be serious about music, have a look at why they called you the King Of Pop!
