ABOVE: Michael Jackson moonwalks with his pet monkey, Bubbles. Speculation mounts that Jackson’s very strange, very public life may have come to a sudden end due to drug-induced cardiac arrest. An autopsy is scheduled to be performed later today.
Ok, so the video above isn’t really a Michael Jackson music video, but we can’t say no to a moonwalking monkey, can you?

Top 5 Michael Jackson Songs, Downloads and Music Videos
5. Michael Jackson “Scream” video: It’s not our favorite song, but this video is listed as the Guinness Book of Records’ most expensive music video ever, at over $7 million. Pretty impressive.
4. Michael Jackson “Smooth Criminal” video: We HATE the cover of this song recorded by Alien Ant Farm, but seeing Jackson as a gun-toting gangster is, um, memorable.
3. Michael Jackson “Beat It” video: Wait, so “Weird” Al didn’t write this? Crazy. Just kidding, a classic clip from Jackson’s 1982 album, Thriller.
2. “Don’t Stop Til You Get Enough” video: It came out in the ’80s, but by the size the GIANT bow tie Jackson is wearing with his tuxedo, you’ll think you’re having a disco flashback to the ’70s. Enjoy! If “Scream” cost $7 million to film, this video probably cost $7, very cheesy, but still fun.
1. We can’t decide! Leave a comment and tell us what you think is Jackson’s best song or video of all time, and we’ll add the winner to our list.
We’re tempted to go with “Thriller,” but we could be wrong…tell us what you think!
Michael Jackson “Thriller” video: In addition to featuring dancing zombies and werewolves, this song features a hair-raising introduction courtesy of Vincent Price. It scares us every time, and we love it. The best part, is that it comes with a disclaimer from Jackson stating that he does not endorse the occult. Classic. “Thriller” video

None of the above, there all fantastic, but who could expect anything less from Michael ? My personal favorite is the Black Or White video, it’s incredible, I love it, and I think Michael never looked better than he did at the time he did that one
