My girlfriend/almost wife is a MJackson nut. Since I'm looking for some good guitar based/guitar arrangements for MJ songs, I wonder if we could collectively create a thread full of these arrangements? The only one I can think thats any good for guitar is Ben. Anyone know any others?

Check out Chris Cornell's cover of Billie Jean. He did it as a slow bluesy song. If you can find the acoustic version, it is best.

Bass player for Undercover

I really like an arrangement of Billie Jean by Sungha Jung - the kid did it very well. Check it out if you haven't heard yet:

that's actually the arrangement created by Adam Rafferty from my above post. That kid is amazing, I think he's the first person I've watched every video he's put out LOL.
