Dangerous all the way... Don't get me wrong I do love Thriller, but Dangerous is truly a masterpiece, is the only album I can sit through and not skip a single song (yes I'm a terrible fan, I know blah)
Though I still think Bad is my favorite MJ album I always skip through ONE song, same with Thriller, and that doesn't happen with Dangerous.
Maybe because Thriller songs have been overplayed till death...idk.
Thriller will always be considered as MJ's crown jewel by average joes, but the fans know some of his highest quality work was in Bad and Dangerous. Easy example: WHO IS IT!!! How can anyone deny the awesomeness (lol) of that song?! It's simply brilliant and it shows perfectly the quality emphasis Michael put on Dangerous.
Don't even get me started on the brilliance of lyrics like Will You Be There, and Give in To Me...ugh, simply genious.
