The best ones to me after Lovesexy are

Batman
Diamonds and Pearls
Come
The Truth
Crystal Ball

danielboon said:

Yeah, but as a singer/dancer/showman MJ pisses all over Prince.

but is he still a singer/dancer/showman?

danielboon said:

That makes a lot of sense. well thought out. Mind you, considering Prince isn't even in the Rolling Stone top 100 guitarists of all time, MJ might have a chance seeing as he was 101st

Michael is Michael. Prince is Prince. Both are great at what they do!

read the cover of sott the concert movie .i saw jacko live in concert and was shocked, he mimed almost half the set ! no bull he really was miming !

danielboon said:

Watch SOTT, i was shocked, he mimed all the way through it.Shocking overdubs no bull, he was really miming. Infact I've caught the little blighter miming on dozens of occassions on numerous TV shows over the years.

Marrk said:

Mark, thank you , you made me laugh 2nite , ur right how did the thread get like this , i cant stop pissin myself !

princes best album since LS has got me a great laugh 2nite

cheers !

danielboon said:

Although he was on fire back in the '80's Prince hasn't done a great deal of dancing on his tours since '93. Age will probably have something to do with it. And I would imagine that's why MJ mimes some of his songs onstage or else he'd fuck it up with being out of breath and all.

Marrk said:

Mark, that was meant 2 b obvious STOP taking the bait !

smile , its just a laugh !

Cloudbuster said:

Exactly! you can't seriously expect these middle aged guys to throw down like they're twenty still. MJ at his MSG concerts made a good attempt at it when he was with his brothers. He was fantastic for 25 mins vocally and dancing.

Didn't prince break his foot a few years back? No way you'll see him sliding on his back on the floor and doing the splits like in Housequake on SOTT.It's kind of a shame.

Cloudbuster said:

i noticed that last year p certainly has cut down on the moves ! ur probably right he,s middle aged !

i agree.
i don't think i have seen prince dance properly since the diamonds & pearls tour.
kinda miss it.
i enjoyed the one nite alone concert though, even without the dancing.

danielboon said:

I'll try. It's hard being a Prince and MJ fan.On here sometimes it's a bloody nightmare!

Marrk said:

Co-fucking-sign!

i know there are many people who hate news and trc but what about one nite alone?
he released that album last year and is his best album since truth.

Piano or live?

If it's the former, i love Avalanche, as for the latter, i don't like how it's mixed, but love 'Joy' on It aint over!

piano.
i love that album.
came as a real suprise.
i wonder why he didn;t release it oficially instead of news (which i really don't like).
i'd rather see ona in my local hmv than news.

chris210972 said:

Me too. all i got is a CD-R copy i did for myself.

i was lucky enough to get a free copy from the npgmc.

I'd have to say The Truth is my fav 90s release...others are up there but thats my number one.

chris210972 said:

Yeah its not that his music sucks, dickheads like britney spears and the backstreet boys took music and morphed it into a glob of shit, and now people arent liking real music but this great glob of shit the new "artists" call music

Marrk said:

Now, Marrk, if you truly believe album sales are an indicia of artistic superiority, then that would mean MJ is greater than, say, Miles Davis or John Coltrane.

So you don't really believe that, do you?

Nor would I say Michael's artistic legacy is superior to Prince's.

That being said, why did this turn into a Prince v. MJ thread? They're both great, in their own ways.

It's funny, I just bought "Off The Wall" on CD today, finally. Brilliant record, his best IMO.

Now, as for my fave P albums since Lovesexy, I'd say TGE, Graffiti Bridge, Symbol, and parts of Emancipation, and too many other tracks from different LPs to name.
