In my opinion, Michael Jackson is simply a Legend, I like almost all of his songs and I still enjoy listening to his songs. He is gone but will live in our hearts forever. My father loved Michael Jackson very much, he used to tell me that there are 2 types of dancers: Michael Jackson and others.
I love a lot of the songs on this album, but if I had to choose one, I'd say "Black or White". “Black or White” is a great song that makes me feel good inside. It sounds so fun and makes me want to have fun. "Black or White" is the best combination of Michael Jackson ’s desire to use his music as an agent for social change and his unmatched ability to craft exceptional pop music.
Michael Jackson - Black Or White
Lyrics
[Dad:] Hey!
[Kid:] What?!
[Dad:] Turn that off!
[Kid:] Dad, this is the best part!
[Dad:] Turn it off!
[Kid:] No!
[Dad:] It's too late for this. Turn it off!
[Kid:] Dad, this is the best part! Come on!
[Dad:] No, turn it off now!
[Kid:] No, this is the—I want to listen to it, OK?!
[Dad:] You've got things to do tomorrow ... turn it off now!
[Kid:] Yeah, right. Too late. Sure. Eat this.
[Verse 1: Michael Jackson]
I took my baby on a Saturday bang
Boy, is that girl with you?
Yes, we're one and the same
[Chorus: Michael Jackson]
Now, I believe in miracles
And a miracle has happened tonight (Hee!)
But if you're thinking about my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white, ooh!
[Verse 2: Michael Jackson]
They print my message in the Saturday Sun
I had to tell 'em
"I ain't second to none"
[Chorus: Michael Jackson]
And I told about equality and it's true
Either you're wrong or you're right, ooh!
But if you're thinking about my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white, ooh!
[Break: Michael Jackson]
Gone witcha girl!
(Hee-hee!)
[Bridge: Michael Jackson]
I am tired of this devil
I am tired of this stuff
I am tired of this business
Oh, when the going gets rough
I ain't scared of your brother
I ain't scared of no sheets
I ain't scared of nobody
Girl, when the going gets mean
[Verse 3: L.T.B.]
Protection for gangs, clubs, and nations
Causing grief in human relations
It's a turf war on a global scale
I'd rather hear both sides of the tale
See, it's not about races, just places, faces
Where your blood comes from is where your space is
I've seen the bright get duller
I'm not gonna spend my life being a color
[Chorus: Michael Jackson]
Don't tell me you agree with me
When I saw you kicking dirt in my eye (Hee-hee!)
But if you're thinking about my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white
[Post-Chorus: Michael Jackson]
I said if you're thinking of being my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white
I said if you're thinking of being my brother
It don't matter if you're black or white
[Outro: Michael Jackson]
Alright, alright
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Alright (Yeah, yeah, yeah), yeah, now
Alright, alright (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Shamone, don't (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah, now, alright
It's black, it's white
It's tough for you to be that (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's black, it's white, hoo!
It's black, it's white
It's tough for you to be that (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's black, it's white, hoo!
