I want her to tie just for the sake of having it happen again. It's been what like 21 years?

I would have honestly never expected it to be Katy Perry though. An amazing achievement nontheless.

A Teenage 'Dream' indeed.

23 years actually.

I dunno. It looks impressive when you can post a bunch of records broken by your favourite artist. Look at the Whitney thread. lol

Sure, Whitney has talent that's all that matter just like M.J

I think Terence Trent is a better singer, msuician & songwriter then Michael and he only had 3 top 40 hits and that doesn't bug me hammer

Frank Zappa is one of the most intelligent, powerful musicians to ever grace the earth and he had not one top 40 hit and idc about that either.

Talent wins in the end, i started getting annoyed with M.J After awhile cause all people do is talk about his records this & records that. And not enough about the thing that actually matters his music....

It sounds like you were more annoyed about MJ's stans than michael himself

I agree with people talking about his records and stats more than his music. That's always annoyed me too. I can only think of maybe 3 books that talk about just his music neutral

MJ stans have nothing but records and sales to use. If we look at Michael's music, he hasn't made a great album since Thriller and I'm sure as hell tired of his chipmunk voice that he adopted.

From Destiny to Thriller..... those 4 albums is Michael at his best IMO. After that, gimme a greatest hits compilation lol throw on about 4 Jackson 5 songs and we got a deal. Amazing performer though.

Congrats to Katy if she ties the record, I don't like the heffa but its about time my generation start making moves and claim their own marks in the annals of time. Its not always about the past and old farts. lol lol

Oh bullshit. I'm sick of people acting like Thriller is the end all/the only thing he ever did. He was much more than that.

Bad is just as good as Dangerous is better and is his best album.

Off The Wall is his best album actually. Bad is spotty as hell and when he started to become cheesy and corny. Outside of Destiny, OTW, Triumph and Thriller.... he really wasn't all that IMO. I get tired of people acting like the man was god but we all gotta just DEAL and accept the good with the bad. razz

Yeah! and that's not good=[ i mean Stevie had like what 33 top 10 hits? and it's rarely mentioned cause he was sucn an innovater. His music is what speaks the loudest

Much as I don't like Katy Perry, or understand her appeal, I kind of do want her match (and beat) MJ's record – just to see MJ fans hallucinate over it.

I get mad at the ones that only brag about his sales figures. I hardly talk to them anymore anyway.

This record isn't much of a record though. The way sales are now, it's like setting an arena football record. Who cares?

The funny part of this to me is that for an album that has 4 number one singles, it's only sold 1.6 million copies, which really isn't a lot considering. The SINGLE "T.G.I.F" has actually sold more copies than the entire album. How sad is that?

Michael is probably the ONLY artist where his accolades matches his real talent. There is ALWAYS going to be someone more talented than someone else and the same can go for Prince, James, etc etc but the fact of the matter is.. it is sad the music industry has gotten to this point where it is easy for no talent or mediocre songs to get to number one. I am not saying this has not happened in the past but its ridiculous to trash Michael just because some fans express their anger in this.

I honestly don't understand how this could even remotely affect anyone's lives. Some of you act like it's your own personal achievement that's about to be trumped!

I'm all up for new kids to break records, rather than everyone harp on about "old" talent.

She's as munufactured as most of the past anyway, good luck to her.

So having underage sex with a female is better than underage sex with a male?

There's something wrong with you...

LOL, your saying there is something wrong with me, whilst you defend a known peado.

Get into the real world, those rose tinted glasses will break when all the truth comes out, and it will come out as soon as the record sells stop.

I don't own one Katy Perry record (thankfully). Who's buying this crap? I'm sure it must be girls between the ages of 8-15.
