Greatest Michael Jackson Music Videos

The Top Ten
1 Thriller

The greatest music video of all time. Zombies, werewolves, haunted houses, and Michael Jackson in 14 minutes! It was so awesome that when it premiered, it received a standing ovation! Spooky and awesome. Michael at his best.

This is amazing. It has a sort of plot with great dancing and great music. This should be number one, while Smooth Criminal is my second favorite.

Dude, I loved this video as a child, and I was born in 2009. Luckily, my parents were MJ fans, and I got to experience this awesomely cool video.

2 Smooth Criminal

Thriller is the most iconic music video of all time, but Smooth Criminal is the most polished, perfected, and choreographed music video of all time.

Why do I think this is the best video? Because it drags you into the action. The set, the dancing - this video is a mini-movie. It is amazing!

That lean. I've always wanted to do the lean. Still can't. But I'm getting there.

3 Earth Song

So emotional and powerful. Love the wind and lightning in it.

Easily the most epic and emotional video ever.

4 Black or White

You can actually find most of these videos on a DVD called "Number Ones." I like the "Home Alone" kid dressed as a rapper.

One of my favorite songs from MJ. The video was no less impressive and interesting. Michael looks so cool here.

5 Ghost

I love this MJ song and video. He had amazing dancing and acting involved. He was beautiful. Love him and miss him.

6 Remember the Time

I really love this music video. It talks about ancient Egypt, which is one of the most fascinating ancient histories. Plus, Michael looks sexy.

I really love his outfit in this video and the way he moves!

7 Bad

I love the story, visuals, and choreography! The storyline is great, and Michael's acting is on point. The change in color from black and white to color as soon as the music starts gives me chills. Watching this video is so badass!

I love the way he moves to the music and sounds!

8 Beat it

That costume design. I absolutely love that jacket. I want one so bad. It looks so motocross-y. And that dance. Man, that dance. Absolutely phenomenal video. Plus, Michael got real gang members for the video, so those gangs were real!

Michael made a badass move by including real gang members, Crips and Bloods, who are rivals.

My favorite by MJ, and the dance at the end never fails to impress me to this day. Michael Jackson makes his dancers look like amateurs!

9 You Rock My World

In my opinion, this is one of Michael's best songs, and the music video should be number one.

10 They Don't Care About Us
The Contenders
11 Billie Jean

I like the video. I wish he did the Moonwalk in it.

12 Scream

"Thriller" changed everything, and "Bad" was the best song-to-video match. "Smooth Criminal" was the best-choreographed video. However, "Scream," in my humble opinion, may be remembered as the best Michael Jackson video ever over time. Why? The other videos are products of their time.

Why did they go out of their way to make a video about the future in black and white? I am watching "Scream" in 2017, and it does not look old or dated. I cannot say the same about the other Michael Jackson videos. The "Scream" video and the statement it makes are about the Jackson family and the Jackson dynasty. It is a family reunion of sorts and a passing of the torch from big brother to little sister. The "Scream" video was something they wanted to last.

13 Who Is It

Really very touching song. I love it very much! I love all of Michael Jackson's songs, but this is one of the greatest. Just have no more words but these: "This song makes me cry every time I hear it! Love you, MJ!"

This has a piece of every successful music video Michael has done, rolled into one.

14 Leave Me Alone
15 Man in the Mirror
16 Speed Demon

I've always loved this one. Remember how the first five minutes featured Michael running through a studio or something, and he ran onto a movie set? The director was like, "I asked for a bad guy and they gave me Michael Jackson!" I loved that. It was hilarious to me for some reason.

17 Blood On the Dance Floor

I love the song and dance like Michael!

18 They Don't Care About Us (Prison Version)

History On Film DVD is what made this video popular. It was never noticed before.

19 In The Closet

It's one of my favorite music videos.

20 Childhood
21 The Way You Make Me Feel

My favorite! The interactions are fantastic.

22 Jam

This video is great. Michael Jackson teaches Michael Jordan how to dance, and Michael Jordan teaches Michael Jackson how to play basketball. This video was art.
