Well i'm not a casual listener, Michael was big before Prince, and i've been a fan longer of MJ.  Ok, but that has nothing to do with anything I said.This post not for the wimp contingent. All whiny wusses avert your eyes. | |

I dig them both&feel they both are Genius IMHO however I feel they are Cats of Extreme without Balance.somehow I'd like a Happy Medium with both.I think Prince puts out a bit too much in spots&MJ not enough&I'd dig a Happy Medium.I think they both are capable of doing even more.if you can touch People's lives for Decade upon Decade that alone makes you pretty special&Both Cats have proven there Worth to Many People all over the World.I still Say the Dynamic Duo of the 80's was a Exciting time for Pop Music IMHO. mistermaxxx | |

Jasziah said: Seriously, my question is: In what areas do you compare the two? Certainly not musicianship, right? And what else is Prince besides a musician (songwriter, instrumentalist, vocalist, producer, etc)?? And on stage, I feel a lot more energy coming from Prince -- he expresses himself in SO MANY ways. Where else do we make the comparisons? Only one who comes close, IMHO, is Lenny Kravitz.
God Lenny Kravitz sucks. I liked him somewhat when I was younger and then I saw him live and was totally BLOWN AWAY...out of the auditorium in fact to my car, by his ARROGANCE and VANITY. At least Prince can joke about being vain (prettyman) and has some good music to back it up with. Lenny's whole "rock god" shtick makes me ill.  | |

The thought of comparing both makes me 
There is NO comparison whatsoever! Now go and run and tell you mamma about that. | |

would u dare to compare prince and wacko jacko
would anyone dare to compare prince with michael jackson? i mean they're both pretty wierd and yet amazingly talented, strangely i would never buy a jacko cd yet i have all of prince! but u gotta admit they do have similarities ~~~ They have alot of simularities. But I personally think that Prince is a lil more tallented the michael. As well shows a lil more respect. And doesn't have to change his immage in any way shape or form. And I know that Prince wouldn't even consider dangeling a baby. :Whew!: lol I'm sorry but Michael Jackson is really annoying me with all this crap he is doing for just "fun" or "attention" its pathetic, wrong , and just ... wrong. Dreaming permits each and every one of us to be quietly and safely insane every night of our lives.

However, consider P's prolific output and compare that to MJ's and then apply that to releases. An artist will ALWAYS be 'appeasing' the fans. BUT let's not get into quality/quanity arguments. I do, however, have objection to churning out rubbish comments. BTW Who's a slave? MJ and P cannot be compared. Ever. If so, let's get onto MJ and Elvis. Why not? Ho hum. BTW the docu was brilliant! My one Q is - does MJ HAVE any advisors?!? My God, someone SAVE tha man! 
Seriously, for his own sake. -

I'd dare compare Prince to a dishcloth. Whether I'd find much room for scope is arguable. Prince Vs MJ is the most obvious comparison of all, they're same age, broke down MTV's colour barrier etc etc. Musically and as entertainers they're different in many more ways than they are similar. | |

Seriously, for his own sake. Yes, a 'killer vs Filler' comment would certainly put the cat amongst the pigeons.I'll keep quiet on Princes 'quality control Dept'.

shh! To quote RDHull on another thread, that's a a really "dweebified" post. That one was posted by an MJ freak too. Hmmm Anyway the quantity Vs quality point is cool and all but falls apart when we compare MJ's six career adult solo albums (Seven if you have to include Blood On The Dancefloor) to Prince's, who I haven't even counted, there's so many. | |

In terms of comparing two solo artists it just makes more sense that way no? Both reached their commerical peaks at the same time 83-85. | |

MORPHINE.(off Blood on the Dancefloor) Written and composed by michael.liner notes state: Drums: Michael Jackson Guitar:Michael Jckson and Slash Percussion: Michael Jackson, Brad Buxer and Bryan Loren. I'd have never believed Madonna played guitar either til i saw her do it the other year. "You Are Not Alone" (AKA MJ's first and last song to debut at billboard #1 and biggest selling single in how long?) Written, composed and produced by R. Kelly. | |
