CD Reviews

Michael Jackson King of Pop UK Edition Contains Masterpieces
Divinity in Motion | Pennsylvania | 11/13/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Michael Jackson, King of Pop UK edition contains masterpieces from THE Human masterpiece, Michael. This is a 3 cd set which contains all of Michael's well known songs spanning his amazing career on two of the cds. But the third cd is astounding because it contains rarities and classic 12"s. I Can't Get Outta The Rain, On The Line, Someone Put Your Hand Out, Is It Scary, Smile, and 5 extended versions of favorites, and the rare Thiller Megamix, radio edit. For sure these songs are seldom heard of in the United States. This is shameful. The way to correct this is to purchase this astonishing collection. The sleeve contains a fabulous tribute to Michael written by Peter Robinson in August 2008 that brought me to tears reading it. I did not know that for Michael's 50th birthday he surveyed 20 different countries and asked each country what are their favorite songs? Michael produced an album for each of the countries. If it was not for amazon and my wonderful new international seller friends, I would not own such a glorious token from Michael. I highly recommend this 3 cd set and I'm sure you will love it as well the moment you have it in your hands, until minutes later it will become a part of your heart. This would be the perfect start to give a new MJ treasure collector, it is invaluable."
AMAZING

"this product is awesome - we listen to it all the time!!



there is a fantastic array of pictures when i open the box on one side of the booklet sleeve and on the other is a fabulous introduction that tells how MJ so givingly sculpted albums for each country depending on their choice of songs. what a neat thing to do!! it says, "it's an idea which throws statistics out of the window. it doesn't matter which song sold the most, got the highest in the chart or had the most expensive video." it is just simply which songs are the favorites of the 20 countries for whom MJ did these projects.



my family has heard the classic songs on the first two discs and LOVES them - and the third disc is AMAZING because it has rare songs plus extended dance mixes of classic songs - then the thriller megamix at the end!! it's so funny to see my kids dancing and bopping their heads to the thriller megamix and this other version of black or white!! i LOVE it when my 3-yr-old says, "mommy, play my favorite songs again!"



this is definitely worth the money - MJ fans encouraged to purchase."
