you know it!

Billie Jean is an awesome song which is a part of the biggest selling album of all time- Michael Jackson's Thriller. Also how can anyone forget the motown-25 anniversary performance of Billie Jean in which the King of Pop introduced the moonwalk to the world :)

La Vie En Rose - Edith Piaf

5553 points - added 14 years ago by pandora - 1 comment

Comments:

Edith Piaf died in 1963, but her recording of La Vie En Rose was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1998, many years AFTER Dean Martin would have sung it. Obviously the Grammy committee would have heard Martin's version, but chose Piaf's. While everybody is entitled to their own opinion, I happen to agree with the experts.
