They said it was a slow career death Who has a 20 or 16 year career death? The brotha had like 30 top 10 hits and 7 hit albums/compilations in the America and the UK after Thriller "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them.

People trip when they said MJ fell out after "Thriller", there's at least four or five albums that would tell you otherwise! | |

Well, that's because the media said MJ fell out after "Thriller". When he was alive, didn't he said don't believe everything you read?. | |

bboy87 said: Thanks for posting. This is funny. They are playing this concert on our TV today as a New Year´s Eve treat. NOW, they are playing it, not before. Only after his death is he good enough to be shown on TV. The only thing I don´t like is that they are showing this concert cause I think it´s his worst. The performance with his brothers was OK, but the rest is painful to watch. Something was wrong on those two nights. I wish they showed the Dangerous Bucarest concert or something from the Bad Tour.

bboy87 said: papaaisaway said: Thank you. Well said. The BBC Culture show on MJ was the best documentary I've seen on him for a while. I heard they kinda brushed Bad aside and somewhat ignored everything from Dangerous to his passing saying the past 16 years was a slow career death..... A 16 sixteen year career death? Yeah that was the only disappointment for me. I liked how they chose to focus on the music for a change... It's a great pity nobody properly interviewed MJ about his music and the creative process in the later years - it would have been an interesting story and a good antidote to the same-old tired documentaries about his personal life where some disgruntled former employee would claim he saw MJ violate some boys (yawn). Anyway, here's ?uestlove: | |

Of course it was negative...I guess he donated way too much money to charity, correct? Unless you believe in the allegations of sexual misconduct upon children and in the endless rumours about everything (including Bubbles and Louie the lama conspiring to kidnap kids), I guess one wouldn't like to stay in the past!

It doesn’t make sense that people brush aside everything after thriller, as if he did nothing. If it wasn’t for everything that came after it he wouldn’t even be considered the Legend that he now is. He would just be remembered as something very 80’s. And plus the majority of his hardcore fans are much more into post thriller stuff then pre so he wouldn’t even have much of a fan base without the last half of his career.

Oh, yeah. He would have been great. "When Michael Jackson is just singing and dancing, you just think this is an astonishing talent. And he has had this astounding talent all his life, but we want him to be floored as well. We really don´t like the idea that he could have it all." | |
