Explain?

I don't know, the only thing I've ever been impressed by with Marlon is his dancing, and even that doesnt wow me. Tito I havent done much research into so I could be underestimating him, but I see him as just a guitar man, which is still a great talent dont get me wrong. Whereas the other boys especially Randy and Jackie (And of course Michael but I don't usually bring him into the argument) have great talent when it comes to writing, producing, singing, dancing and instruments in Randys case as well.


Here's Tito showing his thing on guitar. Great bluesy guitar solo!

Most Talented Overall (Including Vocals, Dancing, Writing, Instrumentation, Etc)

1. Michael (best singer, writer, dancer, ranks #4 in instrumentation.)
2. Jermaine (2nd best singer, #4 in writing, #4 in dancing, #3 in instrumentation)
3. Randy (best instrumentalist, second best writer, #4 in vocals & dancing)
4. Jackie (3rd best singer, writer, & dancer, #5 in instrumentation)
5. Tito (2nd best instrumentalist, #5 in vocals & writing, last in dancing)
6. Marlon (2nd best dancer, #6 in vocals, writing & instrumentation)

In the Looks Department, I'll split it into 4 categories.

Around 1974:(Pre-Plastic Surgery) In Their Natural State: Michael, Jackie, Jermaine, Randy, Marlon, Tito


Around 1984: (Post-Plastic Surgery) Un-Natural Yet Not Overkill: Michael, Randy, Jackie, Marlon, Jermaine, Tito


Around 1994: (Post-Plastic Surgery) Un-Natural, Aging, Grease, & Some Overkill Added Into The Mix: Marlon, Jackie, Tito, Randy, Jermaine & Michael (TIE)


TODAY:

Jermaine is aHOT MESS, GREASY, and had TOO MUCH WORK DONE.

Randy is FAT, BALD, and has REALLY LET HIMSELF GO. Looks the oldest & he's the youngest.

Jackie is HOLDING IT TOGETHER WELL, AGING NATURALLY, and is I believe the only family member who never had ANY PLASTIC SURGERY.

Tito is STILL FAT, but he looks PRETTY GOOD for his age today.

Marlon is NOW THE BEST LOOKING, MOST STABLE brother, bar none!

I'd say Jermaine is the second best writer. He has really written a lot of good songs during the years. Randy and Jackie were also good writers judging by their work on the Jacksons albums.

I don't know if I'd put Jermaine on third spot. If you go by versatility Jermaine is probably second (Randy first) because besides bass he plays guitar, keyboard and even did some good harmonica solos on some of his soloworks. If you go by most evolved playing on one instrument I think it is a tie between Tito and Jermaine. Jermaine really could funk the bass up.

MICHAEL (1 singing, writing, dancing and production. 4 or 5 at instruments)
JERMAINE (2 at singing and writing. 5 at dancing. 2 at production and instruments)
RANDY (4 at singing and dancing. 3 at writing, 3rd in production and 1 in instruments)
-----
JACKIE (3 at singing and dancing. 4th in writing (not a far 4 write there with Randy) last in production and instruments)
MARLON (5 at singing, 2 at dancing. 4th in production and 4 or 5 at instruments)
TITO (last in singing and dancing. 3rd in instruments, 5th in production.)

No love for Randall?

Randy's that dude, but the order is all wrong

Michael-Randy-Jermaine-Marlon-Tito-Jackie


Marlon got a pass because he wrote Don't Stand Another Chance and All My Love To You, the best songs on Dream Street

but I can't forgive him for the disaster known as "Body"

you know Michael was looking at the video and sayin' "THIS muthafucka...." lol


I loved Body.And I love Marlon. Of course, I love all the Jacksons.

LOL at Jermaine being the 4th best writer of the brothers.

MICHAEL (1 singing, writing, dancing and production. 4 or 5 at instruments)
JERMAINE (2 at singing and writing. 5 at dancing. 2 at production and instruments)
RANDY (4 at singing and dancing. 3 at writing, 3rd in production and 1 in instruments)
-----
JACKIE (3 at singing and dancing. 4th in writing (not a far 4 write there with Randy) last in production and instruments)
MARLON (5 at singing, 2 at dancing. 4th in production and 4 or 5 at instruments)
TITO (last in singing and dancing. 3rd in instruments, 5th in production.)



Michael, Jackie, & Randy are ALL better writers than Jermaine. Don't get me wrong, Jermaine has written some beautiful tunes but when talking about collective efforts as a whole, he ranks fourth amongst the brothers I'm sorry. Michael, Jackie, & Randy have all contributed more noteworthy efforts, especially to the group.
