Why do people like to try and compare Prince and Michael Jackson? I mean I know the timing and everything was there and they are both really great performers, but come on now... there really is no compairison.

They're still in junior high school...or what's now called "middle school"...

There is a comparison but it's old.

These are really the only comparisons I can think of:

1.Both big in the 80s

2.Both considered to be eccentric

3.Two of the first black artists to be played on mtv

Those are really the only ones...and those have been diccussed to death. I can't believe that some of the things I read here are the same things I heard in gym class in '84... a bit pathetic, don't 'cha think?

Some people really can't talk about one without the other for some reason. I don't get it

I think some people just got a habit of doing things like that, comparing this to that, sort of like, why some people are never satisfied...

Michael and Prince are two completely different artists, and are on different levels, although they are both very talented, and not to mention the situation with Michael that makes him very different from Prince, and I mean musically speaking ofcourse.

I like them both also, don't compare them, but Prince is always MY favorite.
