lets just say tonight both artist will stream a live concert on t.v who do u think will grab the biggest ratings? I think MJ!


I know I which one i'd watch!
Like I said vocally MJ is better than Prince but that's where it ends.
I wouldn't go see MJ if he was playing in my back garden.50 nights at the O2 my arse,i'll believe it when i see it.


I doubt i would rush to see MJ in concert either...but we all know he draws the bigger crowd, bigger buzz, like him or not. I also wish him luck with the O2 gig...I wont judge him based his personal issues,we talking music here..I respect him as a musical great, and no one ever will come close to the stardom he achieved, not because i am a Prince fan means I will put him down and diss him and put him in the category of Cris brown and timberfake...MJ and prince are in theire own class...everyone else light years behind,thats why people tend to compare... who else would you compare these to giants with? I admire MJ for his work ethic and giving his fans theire moneys' worth(something Prince could learn from him).

lol I certainly wouldn't use that song as a recommendation to show people how good Princ's voice is. Personally use no new songs. And as for MJ not having a voice anymore is also funny. Listen to Butterflies. That song is better than anything ballad Prince put out in years.



MMmmm... [b]Talkin' bout Floetry's Butterflies ?[/b]

Have you ever heard Mj doin' this live ? NO... Hoo! Ch'mon Da !

Don't forget that now there's a big difference betwen Mj & Prince... the second one can still sing live... Dha !


Check This Out... Best Butterflies Live version:

No, but Floetry's version is great too.
Some people think I'm kinda cute
But that don't compute when it comes 2 Y-O-U.

I think that Prince is a better vocalist...period!!! Ballads or otherwise. Prince has much more range than Michael does. I'll weigh in on the song selections as follows:

1. she's out of my life vs sometimes it snows in april?
2. I just cant stop loving you vs adore?
3. human nature vs the beautiful ones ?
4. man in the mirror vs the cross?
5. dont stop till u get enough vs i wanna b your lover?
6 ben vs diamonds & pearls

1. MJ - She's out of my life
2. Prince - Adore
3. Prince - The Beautiful Ones
4. MJ - Man in the Mirror (Not a ballad)
5. Prince - I wanna be your lover (These aren't ballads!)
6. MJ - Ben (not fair, MJ was a better singer when he was a kid)

Personally, I wouldn't have chosen these songs as my comparison, especially not the Prince ballads. My favorite Prince ballads are:

1. Adore
2. The Beautiful Ones
3. The One
4. I hate U
5. Do me baby
6. Friend, Mother, Sister, Lover, Wife
7. I can't make u love me
8. Dark
9. When were dancing close and slow
10. International Lover

And the best all time Michael Jackson ballads to me are:

1) Who's Loving You
2) Lady in my Life

Prince and Michael Jackson should not be compared. Prince is a great singer, composer, musician and producer. Michael is only one of these!

Studies have shown the ass crack of the average Prince fan to be abnormally large. This explains the ease and frequency of their panties bunching up in it.
