Perhaps the title to this review is rather ambitious but I feel that "Remember the Time" from Jackson's underappreciated "Dangerous" album stands among the singer's best. It is a deft combination of rock, R & B, and new jack swing that is well-represented by five versions on this disc. Each of the remakes offers a distinctive interpretation of the song, never losing much of the integrity of the original.

However, the highlight of this compilation is the "Civiles & Cole House/Club Mix" of Jackson's "Black or White," also found on "Dangerous". The dance pair has taken what was essentially a basic pop/rock tune and turned it inside out into a over-the-top dance anthem, pulling out all the stops as it becomes seven minutes and thirty-three seconds of explosive energy.

Makes one wonder what the duo could of done with some of Michael's earlier hits, solo or with his brothers!

9 tracks is a lot to have on a single, so you're getting a good deal from the start. You get remixes of TWO different tracks, so that makes the deal better. Plus, the mixes are EXCELLENT, so that makes the deal even sweeter!

If you collect remixes, as I do, or you just want to have a special MJ single to show off to your friends, this is definitely one to pick up!

Purely awesome! MJ forever!

this is one classic song from a legend. buy this cd as it also features remixes of black & white which the single is currently unavailable. i have a vinyl of remember the time and the only lacking track is the 12" silky soul mix ,longer, full version than what is on this cd. but its still worth it.

I loved this song, it was the best on Dangerous, and it held the world by storm when it hit # on the R&B charts. The remixes are the best Micheal ever had my favorite was #3

i can listen to the Original version and the re mixes all day and all night, Michael Jackson vocally knocked this cut out of the park. he turned the corner into the 90's with New Jack Swing and left his mark on that particular style and groove. Teddy Riley was on the Production and you hear his trademark groove,but Michael Jackson brought the flavor on this Jam. i still bump this jam as much now as i did back in 91. Props to the King of Pop.

Michael Jacksons music is awesome period...and this song is awesome...It's catchy has a good beat and a big full sound. The video was cool and the remixes rock! Can't wait for his newest album!

This is one of Michael Jackson's best songs. It has a real groove to it and some very good lyrics. The remixes are better than the usual remixes found on similar releases (especially the Black or White remix). On a sidenote, the video for this song is also one of the best videos Michael has ever made, yes, including Thriller.

This is a good single. I like the Black Or White remixes

this is a great song period.the king of pop Michael Jackson really shines on these mixes.together with Teddy Riley the king of new jack swing they create a great song.i never get tired of the great mixes.

This is my favorite video from Michael! The song is infectious & makes you want to dance.
