Strange Offspring Names:
- Blanket - His man named his baby blanker. omg Submitted by: Jasmine
- Prince Michael - OK, this is just sad. Not only can I not imagine going through life with a name like Prince Michael, I think it's just weird to name your kid after yourself and add 'Prince' to the name. I mean, can you imagine if I named my daughter Princess Kitty? Submitted by: Kitty
- Michael Joseph Jackson Jr. - That's Prince's real name. And Blanket is Michael Joseph Jackson II. Prince and Blanket are just nicknames. Submitted by: doodah
- Paris, Prince & Blanket - I think those are beautiful names, especially because I love Paris (the city). Prince was MJ's grandfather's name, and his 3rd child is also called Prince, but commonly known as "Blanket". If you think that the nickname Blanket is strange, well, you have to understand that the word has a special meaning in the Jackson family; it means "love". Submitted by: wingfoot
- Paris Michael Katherine - Paris is for the city she was conceived in. Michael because Debbie Rowe wanted to include Michael's name in there, and Katherine after Michael's mother. Submitted by: Eric Andrews
- Blanket - Submitted by: rio
- Blanket - blanket IS a nickname...its a word michael has used for many years that means a blessing Submitted by: fan
- Prince Michael & Paris Michael - Does this hypocritical 'doesn't matter if you're white or black, lets hang my kid over a balcony' freak have an obsession with naming his kids after himself? Have you looked at Jermaine Jackson? His brother's poor kids' names. Must run in the family. Submitted by: mandy
- Blanket - Why oh why would you call your kid Blanket?!! He seems like a nice enough guy. He's a bit strange but ok. What's next-table? Chair? Plate?! Submitted by: lauren de lacey
- Prince Michael and Paris - When my uncle (amazingly one of Michael's security guards at Neverland) first started working for him, he only saw the kids about twice a week, just walk past or something. But apparently Michael doesn't even call the kids by their "real" names-the boy, Prince Michael, is referred to as Joshua, while Paris is called Isabelle. Wierd? I thought so too-apparently to be famous you've gotta have a flashy name, why not Prince Michael and Paris? Submitted by: sally anne

| "Rock With You"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: Let that rhythm get into you
Don't try to fight it And when the groove is dead and gone, you know that love survives Why They're Nonsensical: Rock with you is the third in a trilogy of numbers which are not only nonsensical,but also hold a disconcerting memory for me,the others being Working my way back to you and Afternoon delight.They featured heavily on the radio around the time I'd not long found myself at sixteen/seventeen chucked into the scarey world of work,and a particularly irksome,tiring and downright scarey job it was too.The irksome aspect was worsened by the fact that they always had this infernal radio going in the warehouse,and those three numbers never seemed to be off the wretched thing.Possibly the one which seemed to annoy me most was Rock with you.I had decided recently to check out the actual lyrics of these three offending songs of my tender years in the workplace.Back then Afternoon delight and Rock with you sounded a bit strange to me in presentation,but all three would also prove to contain some pretty wierd stuff in the lyrics department.[Let that rhythm get into you.Don't try to fight it-Like,what is the guy talking about?What's with all this emotive garbage about battling against a dance beat?Nor is this the only number in which that type of garbage surfaces ofcourse.-And when the groove is dead and gone,you know that love survives.-Yet more of the same type of garbage.It doesn't stop there.This intrepid duo are gonna ride the boogie,share that beat of love,feel the heat.He want's to rock with her right through the night till break of dawn.He wants her to close her eyes and let all this get into her.They've got so much more of this funky stuff to get through.]The whole thing reads today like the world's greatest pile of bull.What could be worse guys?The fact that possibly some of the world's greatest piles of lucre was gleaned from this and many other outpourings of musical bull over the years?Yes,that's what's even worse,and I'm not talking out of jealousy either.That's a fool's game.I'm talking out of sheer annoyance, bordering almost on sheer disbelief, that fortunes have been accrued on the writing and singing of sheer bull.I fully appreciate properly written and presented material,yet have also found myself studying the other side of the coin.Guys,one thing I've consistently found with the latter.No matter what way you try to look at a pile of kack,it's never going to appear as anything other than a pile of kack.Fewer piles of it come higher than something like Rock with you.

Misrhymed Lyrics:

The Misrhymed Lyrics: Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one So take my strong advice, just remember to always think twice (Do think twice) Why They're Misrhymed: 'She is just a girl who claims that I am the one'? Okay, lets discuss this. Is this what he means?: she is just a girl who claims that I am a girl too? For the part do think twice, I always thought he sang 'don't think twice'. Just listen to that part, it sounds more like 'dont think twice' By the way, I do like Michael Jackson.

The Misrhymed Lyrics: Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl, who claims that I am the one But the kid is not my son Why They're Misrhymed: One and son rhyme, but lover doesn't. The way he sings it, 'lover' sounds like 'love.' Closer, but it still doesn't rhyme. Nice try.

I really want it, I can't deny It's just desire, I really love it 'Cause if it's aching, you have to rub it She wants to give it Why They're Dirty: These are the most suggestive lyics I've ever heard, next to Janet Jackson. His canoodlings with Naomi Campbell in the video demonstrate these lyrics well. Not literally, but.. u get the picture.

The Dirty Lyrics: So listen to your heart
Move your body close to mine Let me touch you with my love I can make you feel so right Why They're Dirty: When I was younger, I never knew what he meant by these lines because on their own, they don't make sense. How can you touch someone with your love? It's only when I matured and other influences started to interfere with my natural line of thinking did I realise, then further compounded by the subsequent line of 'filling the girl with his dreams'. And to think of Michael Jackson of all people saying this... !o_O!

Super Long Pop Songs:
"Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" Length: 6:03
This is the longest song from Michael Jackson's smash hit (still the best selling album of all time) album from 1982, "Thriller". It also has the distinction of being the only song from "Thriller" to become a hit (a top five hit in the late summer of 1983, with much help from radio dj's) without an accompanying music video. It also is a hit because of it's cross-over dance elements, with hints throughout of reggae, African dance pop (the last line is from "Soul Makossa" a 1973 hit from Cameroonian saxophonist Manu Dibango), country line dance and just good old fashioned American rock and soul dance and disco. It was written by Mark Anthony Neal.

| "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'"
The Lyrics: Help Me Sing It, Ma-Ma-Se, Ma-Ma-Se, Ma-Ma-Coo-Sa, Ma-Ma-Se, Ma-Ma-Sa, Ma-Ma-Coo-Sa ... (repeat until fade)
Why: "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" was a top five hit for Michael Jackson from 1983. It was another smash hit taken from Michael Jackson's huge 1982 lp, "Thriller" (still the largest selling lp in history). "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" was a hit in the late summer of 1983, and was an instance dance classic (despite Michael's later troubles, this hit is still very much appreciated on dance floors with it's connection to country line dancing sensibility). "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" is also something of an internationally made hit. The last lines or more accurately utterings as I have printed here, as told to other by the writer of the song, Mark Anthony Neal, are taken from Cameroonian saxophonist Manu Dibango's suprise 1973 U.S. hit, "Soul Makossa", and roughly translate from the original French as, "My-My-My-My-Its- My-My-Its-Coo". "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" was also the longest song on the Michael Jackson "Thriller" lp at 6:03 in length and was the only song on the lp to not be made into a music video (despite it's success on the charts).

Crime Records:
"Sexual Molestation Of A Child"
In 1993 a young boy and his mother came forward with allegations that Michael Jackson had molested him while he was being entertained at his Neverland Ranch. 10 years later another boy came forward with similar allegations. The second set of charges were dropped due to a lack of evidence but Michael's reputation as a child advocate has been tarnished.
