I love that song. It's too bad that I never really appreciated his music when he was alive. Of course I liked his singles but I've never listened to
his albums. I should do that.

Espically Care About Us, I wonder why it wasn't a bigger hit Controversial lyrics. |

People thought the lyrics were anti-Semitic and prejudiced, but that was the point. That's exactly what he was speaking out against.. it was meant
to be ironic. People were so ridiculous if they couldn't see that.

Michael wrote a lot of good lyrics. Mostly after 1995 did he start getting more poetic and really autobiographical.
