WHAT. THE. F**K. IS. WRONG. WITH. YOU. ALL!!!!!???????? MJ HAS BETTER SONGS!AND THAT SONG BILLIE JEAN WON WHEN I EXPECTED IT TO LEAVE WITH ALL THE OTHER 90'S SONGS! WHY!? First of all, "with all the other 90's songs"? Second of all, you've been expressing your distaste towards Billie Jean for weeks now and people have been constantly informing you how highly regarded the song is both in Michael Jackson's discography and in popular music in general. I'm amazed that you can still be surprised that it did so well in this rankdown just because you don't like the song.

Deserving winner. Call it whatever you want. Michael's lows are better than some of y'all's fave's highs. Get used to it. :sip2:

I can understand if he was mad but him boardiciding because of a rankdown is one of the stupidest things I've ever heard. We all liked him and I saw nothing wrong with his music taste.

What happened to justchillin, did anything happen behind the scenes or is it all because of this rankdown?
Anyway, I get disliking Billie Jean, but it's easily one of the most revered and iconic songs of all time, made by arguably the biggest pop artist of all time, so it was always going to finish high. In fact, way back during the pre rankdown questions, it was the song I predicted to win, and I would've been extremely shocked if it went out before top 10, even with all the previous upsets.
All in all this was a really fun, even if messy, rankdown with a deserving winner in Billie Jean.

Billie Jean is one of my least favorite songs by MJ. It's still good though. Lose Yourself is one of my favorite songs ever. Would've preferred Lose Yourself to win by a lot but I'm not mad that Billie Jean won.

Well, even though this rankdown was, is, and will always be a mess, I could not be happier with how it came out. With the unraveling of our equally mediocre tastes to the fact that half of my top 10 made the top 5, this is an unforgettable rankdown.
Thank you gravey for hosting this. Now time to jump into the discord server and ask why would anyone boardicide because of a rankdown holy shit

That overrated "Lose Yourself" ended at #2 over Rolling in the Deep and Bad Romance!?!??! What an awful joke. Really glad "Billie Jean" won, and I can't believe I ranked at #28.
Awful rankdown but great winner.

I don't know why justchillin would boardicide just because of Billie Jean (in which I only ranked it at #24), but that is an iconic song and deserves to win this Rankdown. And yeah, thank you @walker9 for hosting this one.

Well at least Bad Romance made top 5. It's one of the earliest song that got me into western music. There are literally hooks everywhere and I don't remember a pop song that is as distinctive as this. The melody of Viva La Vida is so repetitive and has limited use of orchestra. It shouldn't be this high imo. Lose Yourself has some of most hard-hitting punchline by Eminem. Its message is also well-delivered without being too cliche. And wow at Billie Jean winning by a landslide. It's not my favorite MJ song but it is one of 80s gold (that time certainly has better songs but this isn't bad at all) Thanks to @walker9 for hosting this messy rankdown anyway. Can't wait for the closeness stat also

I lost my #1 the moment this rankdown started, and I'm always at or near the bottom in closeness on every rankdown I participate in, but I'm still here anyway.
