The idea that MJ should be included more than once or the idea that mainstream music journalism doesn't want anything to do with him right now? [Edited 8/10/21 13:22pm] The first one, I suppose.

Oh, I can see an argument for Thriller, Billie Jean, and Beat it all being on a top 100 videos list. Hell, Don't Stop Till You Get Enough as well. I know MJ fans would prefer if all 100 videos were just MJ videos but he's one of the few artists whose videos were that important to video making. If the list was UK centric you could make the same argument for multiple Adam Ant/& the Ants videos.

I understand.

I am happy he made it that high on the list at least. However, like you said, there is still an anti-MJ atmosphere in the media though I have noticed it isn't nearly as bad as it was 2 years ago. It's not warm but it's not completely hostile either.
