As I'm sure there will be many others wondering where their favorite is, I'd like to mention his performance of "Ben" on the Sonny and Cher show in 1972 as another standout. The fact that a 13-year-old can convey such emotion blows me away every time. Reply

I think the video "Leave me alone" tells a lot about jackson's personality, and what the press put him through (sure, he definately was an odd one though). but it is a really cool video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbH04pY7alA Reply

What about "You Are Not Alone" (1996)- nice song, pretty lady, and a half-naked white Michael in a towel singing about how lonely he is. Reply
