...de gustibus, flower...I can count on my fingers how many love songs I like in general. Not so many. But this one is beyond heaven, it's like the promise of THAT kind of love

please, let me dream.
I like The girl is mine as well. It perfectly encapsulates the Beatles atmosphere. Beautiful simple melody and Michael and Paul's voices are blending so nicely. Thought from The Beatles I like more Lennon.
It was a strategic choice, people were not expecting especially with Bad album such variety and sonic journey. Ah, MJ again with ballads. MJ: Hold your horses.
