Serious Effect was a song for Dangerous. Brace Yourselves was a Teaser for the Dangerous Tour with "Oh Forutna"(I, guess) and JLo is over.

Rodney Jerkins was over when MJ worked with him too, so... shrug


Don't tell me u compare Jerkins and JLo. confuse

BlueNote




you're right. that isn't fair of me at all. J-Lo is still popular biggrin

Maybe JLo's duet with Micheal will help her out. JLo really needs some help, her music has been sucking worse than usually.

BULLSHIT


That's what I thought. However, it would be in interesting collaboration. I know they both have respect for each other.


It must be a joke.
I read somewhere that MJ got the Moonwalk idea from Bowie after seeing Bowie do a "backward walking" on his 1974 tour.



actually Mj stole it from Jeffrey Daniel from Shalamar who's group used to pop lock on soul train. and do routiens,Mike thought people forgot about dat shit. but he stole it from Jeff.


Actually he asked to be taught it.Michael borrows and draws inspirition from lots of dancers going back and adds a fresh twist to it all and makes it his own, that is what makes him a great dancer.his Moonwalking is far removed from that primitive shit you're describing.

Nothing wrong with using the past to inspire you, ask Prince.


Michael hasn't been a good dancer since he was a boy. It's all corny choreography-- yes even the Thriller dancing. He popularized the moonwalk but didn't create it. He never said he did, either. He was a natural but something happened as he grew into an adolescent as it often does.

By the way, I'd like to see him work with Bowie. I don't think anybody's above working with somebody, but the idea of him working with J-Lo and Shakira doesn't interest me.

when will Mj just either Melt.. or retire..


NEVER nod so get over it. Have some respect.

And I reckon all of this is a load of bull.

A "new" album isn't even expected soon. His #1 Album is only expected to be released in November hopefully.

Duet with Shakira? please god no.

Have you seem Michael's audition for Motown? He WAS a good dancer when he was little.

Mrdespues, It's not really that I've got anything against Shakira. I do own her album, it's not brilliant but it was good nod

I just really think Michael's and Shakira's voices would not go together that well.

Shakira sucks.She's one of the worst singers I've ever heard.If MJ duets with her,I won't buy his CD.

I heard Shakira sing "Underneath you clothes" live and accoustic and she sounded good?
but a duet with Michael sounds odd

I cant see Bowie and Wacko recording together. They are on different planets now musically. Maybe in the 80's they might have done something, but now...not a chance.

Jacko is too out of touch to ever have another hit record. Invincible was dire, HIStory was self celebratory pap, and Dangerous was an average pop album.

All he does now is spend a fortune on big name producers to keep him in touch with the current trends, and it sounds contrived.

Bowie on the other hand is still producing quality albums of substance and interest over 30 years into his career. Id lose all faith if Bowie worked with the weird one.

Thanks for taking the time to listen anyway. I on the other hand hate Bowie and can't be arsed to listen to even one of his albums, so i can't tell you how dire or average they are.I do know Bowie broke new ground waaay back in the 1970's.What happened?

Didn't Bowie attempt 'Drum & bass' the other year? Wasn't that his weak-ass take on current trends?

BTW, Iman likes Mike (Remember the Time), perhaps she's behind this, if it happens?

Funny then that those three albums amassed roughly 60 million sales. How many do you need to sell to be guaranteed a "hit"?

Oh sorry, i didn't have the exact numbers, but HIStory about 30 million (counting each CD) and Vince 10 million. I admit a mediocre Blood On The Dance Floor with 5 million or so isn't that successful.

Where is Bowie? And what is quality?

There is nothing average about the Dangerous album. It's probably one of the top five best albums in the 90s.

But Dangerous seems to be MJ's lost Album since BoW is the only Song which made the final cut on 'Number Ones'. I still think it is his best work until now.

That 'Number Ones' track listing is a joke. It's missing some number one's and contains songs that didn't even make the top spot.

As for Dangerous, Black Or White was the album's only number one single unless you include the US R&B chart where both Remember The Time and In The Closet hit peak position.

Really? I didn't know that. At least 'Remember The Time' should be on it. disbelief

They are both classics. I love the short film versions, with the breaks. This clock ticking sound in 'In The Closet' and those great beats in 'Remember The Time'

Marrk LOVE your siggy wink

I can't believe only Black or White have made it on that album. I know it's only Number 1's but some didn't even make it to number 1, like someon'es already said.

Who Is It..Dangerous...Keep The Faith...Can't believe they're not on there disbelief
