Man, The by Paul McCartney – **

First released: 1983

Paul McCartney’s third and thankfully last collaboration with Michael Jackson. Although I enjoy "Say Say Say", this song and "The Girl is Mine" have got to be two of the most annoying duets ever to come out of McCartney’s cannon. McCartney has done a lot of lightweight stuff, but this one makes even McCartney sound like a heavy rocker. Apparently, there was an extended version prepared for a 12” single, but I have not heard it. Probably no great loss. It's from "Pipes of Peace".
