While we're deciding whether all this Michael Jackson tribute coverage is totally appropriate or way too much, one event of wall-to-wall coverage is an absolute delight in honoring this talented entertainer. That's the hours of Michael Jackson videos we're being treated to on VH1 Classic and VH1 Soul. The production of the videos is still amazing, sometimes 20 years later, and the video element produced and directed by top Hollywood talents are very hard to turn off.

It brought me the topic for today's questions.. what are your favorite Jackson Five and Michael Jackson songs?

For Ralph: Jackson Five-- "Shake Your Body"; Michael song-- "Beat It."

What are yours? Can't wait to hear your answers. RH

(P.S. CBS will be airing another hour-long tribute to Michael Tuesday night at 9:00pm.)

As a big fan of music that rocks, my favorite Michael Jackson song came when he teamed up with Eddie Van Halen to record "Beat It." Though I was never a big Jackson fan, I've enjoyed reminiscing about his music because the songs serve as bookmarks in time for me. They bring back memories, most of them good.

I love Michael Jackson! At one point I wanted to marry him. :) Favorite songs: Man in the Mirror, Beat It, Billie Jean, pretty much all of them. I can't believe he is really gone. He is the Elvis of my generation.

My favorite Jackson 5 song is "I want you back!" Favorite solo song is probably "Wanna be startin' Somthing." I like that diddy at the end! It took me forever to learn that! I did enjoy watching the video specials all weekend! Despite all the TV coverage- I don't think radio did enough though. I am still very sad about this and I hope we can all have some closure soon.

Yes Michael was an icon; but lets memorialize Farrah too. She was an icon as well. Her funeral was today. It seems she was overshadowed when Michael died. She will be missed. Just like Michael, you don't even have to have known Farrah or Michael personally to an effect on you. I feel like that I lost a friend when Farrah died...I have never met her...jus seeing you on TV would do. I never missed a Charlies Angels show. REST In PEACE Farrah and Michael...

Ditto, Mike.. I loved the Charlie's Angels marathon on WGN Sunday night, and it was wonderful to see Farrah in her prime. I can tell you I think Michael is getting so much MORE coverage, because Farrah's death was expected and his was so sudden. Ralph

Jackson 5-- "ABC", Michael--so many favorites... hard to pick one... "Thriller," "Black or White" (the originality of that video rivals "Thriller"), "You Are Not Alone," "Scream" and the list goes on and on.... I only hope that my little girl will love his music as much as I do...
