The point is George is ordinary. And as it happens he danced and dressed gay. It's not a big deal, but it seems like that one adjective is out of bounds in some people's minds. Bollocks to that.

He makes valid points? midnightmover is sick. he joked about the Holocaust and now he think he's funny joking about gay cliches as well. As if MJ doesn't dress gay in it's original meaning. And why did he has to make the thread about MJ and Gm as personals? It was about their talent. he should get banned! | |

BTW, in 2004 GM said he thinks Prince and Michael Jackson were far more talented than himself. | |

lol, I love it! All the bitter orgers with their grudges all coming out of the woodwork to vent their grievances. That's funny.
Anyway, like I said this thread is wackier than anything you'd find on a UFO sightings website. GM can outsing MJ? Wow. There are no words.

Yeah, MJ does dress a bit gay, but as I explained earlier his attitude on stage was anything but gay. “The man who never looks into a newspaper is better informed than he who reads them, inasmuch as he who knows nothing is nearer to truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors.”

That's how midnightmover is. He's firmly believes Michael is gay and won't believe otherwise Everything midnightmover says is "fact" Who cares who's better? They make the best damn music I've ever heard There is absolutely no evidence to suggest otherwise. All the evidence points to either homosexuality or (possibly) asexuality, but the asexual case is extremely flimsy compared to the homo case. “The man who never looks into a newspaper is better informed than he who reads them, inasmuch as he who knows nothing is nearer to truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors.”

The fact that you can consider any attitude to be "gay" or not demonstrates how extremely little you really know about the sexuality (like so many other things you like to spout off about). Michael may well be gay, but if he is, it is due to his attraction to men, not his flamboyant clothes. | |

I simply acknowledged it, but made it clear I didn't regard it as very significant. Go back and read it again. And if you seriously think the only difference between gay and straight people is who they're attracted to then you are naive in the extreme. How old are you, 12?

Timmy84 said: To be perfectly honest, comparing MJ to GM is like comparing apples and oranges. And it's not really a fair comparison either.
George and Wham! were partially influenced by Michael's work both solo and with the Jackson 5/Jacksons. George Michael, for one, is a BIG fan of R&B music so Michael's influence was already crept in when he first came out. Plus in terms of vocal appeal, come on, just because both guys can sing falsetto real good don't mean that they should have a vocal battling contest. Clearly MJ and GM have vocally performed in diverse tastes over the years. Plus George doesn't like to dance and never considered himself a dancer. Maybe he's more of a mover though. Michael however is one of the greatest, if not the greatest, dancers to walk the face of the earth. Plus George and Michael are great entertainers in their own way when they each perform live. One's black and American, another's Greek and from London, one's about to be 50, another already turned 45. One man's biggest seller is "Thriller", the other's "Faith". They each celebrated a 25th anniversary of some part of their career. But other than that, not really much of a fair comparison. Perfect, I couldn't say it any better. I dig them both. I'm more of a MJ fan but I'm a fan of GM's work too and they both are so unique in their style and their music. They rock! [Edited 8/20/08 9:20am] I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

I feel that they are both wonderful , and sometimes very misunderstood and highly talented people !!!! And I love all of their music ! However , sometimes one of them is not given enough credit sometimes and is very under-rated , and made fun of waaaay too much than need be . And I think you can figure out which ONE of them that I am refering to . | |

I dont see(hear) how George has the better voice out of the two. To my ears Michael has one of the most unique and influential voices in music.
I just began to get in to GM material the last year and he's great too | |
