After taking a quick view of the article I see too many flaws to even considering giving it a full Ga review, however, I will leave some topics you really need to address in order for this to become better and improve.

First of all, the lead is away to short for a song like this, It has no information at all regarding reviews, background, production, writers...the information that has its way too short.

A short summary regarding the release of the song, or the cd's single its nowhere to be found.
Only three reviews on the "Critical response"? I bet there are a lot more...
The "Music video" section can't be divided like that, it can have subtopics but it has to be descriptive.
The "Live performances" section doesn't have a single link citing where the information came from. Same goes for the "Personnel" section as it should also be divided into two columns.
The "Chart performance" section is all over the place. Columns should be the most balanced possible and tables should have around the same size. No chart performance section describing its peaks, weeks, debuts...?
The "Track listing" should be above the chart performance section.
The "Alien Ant Farm version" has not a single source. Once again balanced columns.

I strongly suggest you to take a look at some FA articles regarding music in Wikipedia to get a grasp on the GA articles, it will become easier, and also read the guidelines of the same. As you nominated a Michael Jackson, it has some FA articles and GA as well. All in all, it needs serious cleanup, it is way unreferenced and t is a long way from meeting any one of the six good article criteria. Quick fail.
