General songs descriptions
Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' - song about thing, sometimes we want to start something, but some one or something is prevent us. Sometimes it's hard to handle it but we are determinate anyway at the same time to "start something". Love story of some people gives here some kind of story in the song. It's very rhythmic and making wanna dance.
Baby Be Mine - it's the track about the matter how much we want to be with our lover, because we love him/her so much and it's hard to live when we are far away of ourselves or in only a friendship relationship. Dreams are taking us and we can't control it.
The Girl Is Mine - unceasingly fight about girl of two guys who like the same girl and both of them is trying to convince other man to give up because "the girl is mine".
Thriller - man and woman's story. He's got a secret and she is in love with him. His secret is; about midnight he is a monster. Horror of night, uncertainty of fate and fear of sense that's a Thriller.
Beat It - message of the is to not pretend you can be a macho man, just get out of or stop some troubles just on conversation, because it's no matter who's wrong or right and the fight is not only way out.
Billie Jean - authentic stories of many artists, stories of fallen in love with artist fans who are so crazy to claim they have a baby with an artist. Michael was inspired by one such story when in the gate was standing some girl which screamed that she have a baby with him. Michael gave here a little of imagination and created picture of crazy relationship which has its end when fallen in love with him girl after party claims that the kind is his thought it's not truth. Full of rhythms and energy Billie Jean makes you wanna dance.
Human Nature - love in different view. Showing us in metaphor way, and why it is so? Because it's "human nature".
P.Y.T (Pretty Young Thing) - man meet a girl from no where and is spell-bound of her beauty, he wants her only for him and want to love her, because he thinks this is exactly waht she needs.
The Lady In My Life - unusual conception of woman as very dear for man. Having her next to him he cares of her as much as he can.
