10. Cinderella Stay Awhile

“This album gives me the chills… this album gives me the chills because,to me,Michael sounds like praying…both in the lyrics he sings and in the sound of his astounding voice!”

9. Dapper Dan

“There are some beautiful, soulful love songs on this album, from a stage of Michael’s career we don’t hear so much about. His voice on this album is transitional, as he moves from child sensation to global megastar.”

8. We’ve Got Forever

“I loved him in this, dare I say, almost geeky stage. God bless Michael Jackson, there will never be another one like him, he was too good for this cynical world.”

7. Dear Michael

“Even though later albums of Michael Jackson are certainly considered more important and influential by most fans – whoever likes soul in the style of the 70s will drive with FOREVER, MICHAEL best.”

6. I’ll Come Home to You

“FOREVER, MICHAEL from 1975 is the last of these Motown albums and at the same time the most successful thing that is simply due to the fact that Jackson sounds much more mature vocally here, while on the previous works he often sounded awfully young and therefore does not always keep up with the Bombast arrangements that are so typical of the label could.”

5. You Are There

“The album is a good album but it doesn’t have a lot of dance tracks like Michael was known for & has more ballads though the ballads are really good. If your looking for a ballad album this album is for you.”

4. Take Me Back

“I love love love this album!!! It’s sheer perfection…like everything else Michael Jackson. I’ve loved him for many years…and I will always love and miss him!”

3. One Day in Your Life

“Forever, Michael” is Michael Jackson’s best solo album on Motown. On this record, his voice had changed, compared to his previous material on Motown. His voice was starting to sound more relevant to his style”

2. Just a Little Bit of You

“Even though the Jackson 5 were seemingly on the back-burner by 1975, Michael worked with Brian & Eddie Holland amongst others to make this rather decent album. Although it passed at the time without much fanfare, this album remains an important link from the bubble-gum pop of the Jackson 5 to the more soulful sound of the Jacksons in the later 70s.”

1. We’re Almost There

“This album is simply awesome. So melodic and pleasing to the ear… It’s out of this world. I always thought Michael was a very underrated singer. Every song on this album is good.”
