yea man... they closed my thread lol

damn the thread is about MJ AND Bobby Brown not just MJ. I think that they need to be more specific on what "everything MJ" means. I thought it meant topics stricly pertaining to MJ not including MJ.

i kinda knew it would happen though.

I posted it outside of the mj sticky because i know that only certain people come here. I felt it would benefit the thread to have it on the main board. Im gonna ask and see if it can be reopened.

ETA: The board I took the topic from isnt generally a music forum but it is a gossip site that has a music subform. On that messageboard it started a pretty good discussion, so i knew it should have sparked something here.

I thought I was the ONLY one who looked at that for 10 ROTFL!!

He was one baddd motha....

Lord, that last little bit in the red fringe trousers is awesome. I found bits of that concert online and it was great. Especially where the girl tried to jump onstage with Michael and got tackled.

Classic.

Only Michael could rock out like that.

God I miss him.

He’s breaking records even from the grave. Yes, despite passing away now three years ago, Pop deity Michael Jackson is continuing to extend his lead as the most groundbreaking creative act of all time. For, as of this year, he has has exceeded worldwide sales of 1 billion copies. According to the Michael Jackson Estate, the icon- who scored a whopping 13 #1 singles and 17 Grammys- to name just two of his achievements- has shifted over 1 billion albums across the globe since his solo debut in 1972. Calculated by combining the sales sales of the icon’s oft celebrated back catalog of music, the news is expected to be confirmed by Sony Music in coming weeks following Jackson’s immortalization at Grauman’s Chinese Theater on January 26th, in celebration of his impact on Pop culture.

Oh, come on ....
The usual declaration, which is not based on actual figures.
1 billion - WOW!
Neither Michael nor the Beatles nor Elvis did not sell even half of that figure.

Michael album sales:
Off The Wall - 18.5 million
Thriller - 72 million
Bad - 32 million
Dangerous - 30 million
History - 18 million
Blood On The Dancefloor - 5.5 million
Invincible - 8.5 million
Greatest Hits HIStory Vol 1 - 2 million
Number Ones - 9.5 million
The Ultimate Collection - 300.000
The Essential - 4.5 million
King Of Pop - 3.5 million
The Collection - 550.000
The Motown Years - 350.000
This Is It - 5.5 million


Motown albums (solo) - about 5 million total.
-----------------------
Total albums sales - about 230 million
Total sales of singles - about 120 million
----------
MJ sold 350 million records of his music (solo). Elvis - about the same.
The Beatles have sold nearly 420 million records

These are BIG 3: best-selling musical acts of all time.
Talks about the sellers - billionaires - myths!!

He did NOT sell 1 billion worldwide. That would equate to 1/7th of the world. I highly doubt that.
