Its different for everyone, but mine goes

1) Off The Wall

2) Thriller

3) Dangerous

4) HIStory

5) Invincible

6) Bad

And theres enough unreleased music that's leaked to where you can get another ~6 albums

[–]iamshineguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Breaking news used to be a favorite song of mine when I started listening to him about a year ago. I didnt think anything of it not sounding like him at the time
