MJ might have had more commercial succes then Elvis or the Beatles, but its kiddie-pop, superficial, inoffensive, shallow.

Elvis might have spoiled his talent by acting in all those mediocre movies, but you should thank him for bringing rhythem and blues and rock and roll in the forefront in his first years.

While MJ has always played it safe, the Beatles have showed guts by taking pop-music to a new level, they certainly werent expressing stupid disnyland-lyrics like MJ did, and their music is and was far more intelligent and authentic then anything MJ ever did.

You can blame MJ for the shallow, bland superficiality of todays charts: Britney, Black Eyed Peas etc. Sound over substance, superficiality over depth.


Oh dear lord in heaven please make Riverpoet disappear! Thank you in advance

Sorry, double post.

But, that whole 'peace loving', 'heal the world'-image was totally naive and misplaced of course.

He didnt even know how to live a satisfying life for himself.

Shallow Disney-crap lyrics like Heal the World and Earth song, show how far removed MJ from reality was: empty superficial shit echoed by millions of empty, superficial 'fans'.

If you want disney-solutions for worldproblems move to MJ, a mentally 5 yo acting as naive as can be, a guy so naive and stupid it doesnt make sense at all.

oh please.....Elvis had a nice voice, but he hardly wrote any of his stuff and he could barely play that guitar that he was always holding, it was nothing but a prop. Elvis greatest asset was that he was born white, and therefore he could rip-off black artists and get played to the masses without bating an eyelid.


i agree with this and i like elvis

BlackFace Jacksons on Australian Variety Hour confused
October 2009

Asked to appear on Australian variety hour 'Hey Hey It's Saturday' as a guest judge, Harry Connick Jr. sputters in disbelief when a Jackson Five impersonation group entirely in blackface appears on stage.

He first gives the group a "0" scorecard for the performance, while the audience boos; later, at about 4:40 into the clip, Connick launches into an impassioned race-relations lecture explaining why blackface is a bad thing. "If I knew that was going to be a part of the show, I definitely wouldn't have done it," Connick chides on live TV. The host appears genuinely surprised.


What the fucking fuck? mad

Yes. lol It was identical to his cameo in "Men In Black II." I remember renting that castaway movie when it was first released in video stores, and being terribly disappointed after watching it. It actually made me feel kind of angry. lol

Actually, you know whats funny and that no one ever brings up is that its so obvious to see the effect Michael had on children and it is so evident and clear in this photo above and so many other which are exactly the same, which was that the little girl is clutching onto his hand! Most adults and its mainly parents or guardians are the ones who hold their childrens hands and with Michael the children were the ones who always held his hand. It wasnt fake or forced, children were drawn to him becuase they felt the love he had for them and they felt safe and proteceted by him and they wanted to hold his hand! Kids very rarely choose to hold any adult that isnt a parent or family members hand and as you can see in this photo the little white girl is happily clutching onto Michaels fingers, who was a african american male in his 20's for no other reason than because she wants to! It only further reinforces what I already knew which was that Michael truly had an effect on people of all ages from babies to the elderly and I believe it was for no other reason then the fact that he oozed unconditional love towards everybody!

nod Michael did indeed exude a genuinely nice spirit that made people of all ages want to be close to him. And most of these people just wanted his attention for a little while, and not fame or money. His affect was phenomenal

If that was me at 8, or however old that little girl was, I'd be grabbing MJ's waist for a hug. giggle Then, we'd continue hugging as we walked, talking about cartoons or something. lol
