Michael Jackson dead at 50

[pixletwin]

I think it would be a hard argument to make that The Eagles were bigger than Elvis or The Beatles.

Another telling statistic is that Jackson had 13 #1 singles. Elvis had 21 and The Beatles had 27. (The Eagles had 5.)

and yeah Bamoon. This is a discussion board. Everything turns into a pissing match.

Thriller really is about as perfect of an album as you can get... one of my favorites.

Although I never would have guessed "Bat out of Hell" would be one of the top selling albums of all time

[bumblebee]

I hate to label some people as freaks but damn theres some big MJ freaks around here was heading downtown today and say a banner saying "we love you and miss you MJ". I'm all for paying respects but come on people you didnt even know the guy. *sighs*

That's ^^^^ing people for you. Always starving for attention.

Trust me when i say this, there not doing it for MJ.... there doing it for themselves.

WTF does that even mean?

I remember as a kid thinking that album would be the ^^^^ when I saw the cover (my mom was buying the 33 of it) but I hated that damn thing, and had to hear her playing it all the time

Funny though, as an adult I actually really enjoy it

I agree with you there.

#1 - The first rule of Fight Club is, you do not talk about Fight Club.

#2 - The second rule of Fight Club is, you DO NOT talk about Fight Club.

#3 - If someone says stop, goes limp, taps out, the fight is over.

#4 - Two guys to a fight.

#5 - One fight at a time.

#6 - No shirts, no shoes.

#7 - Fights will go on as long as they have to.

#8 - If this is your first night at Fight Club, you have to fight.

Someone posted about a Meatloaf album. So I was just making the Meatloaf and Fight club connection in case anyone was interested.

Everyone knows Brett Michaels makes the best PB&Js.

Eh... I'd be skeptical as to whether that was really jelly.

Glad we're on the same page.

Fight Club = Still the best ever adapted screenplay, right after The Shawshank Redemption.

Over saturated media on MJ. News, tributes, it just goes on and on. He made some good music, had some good dance moves, but just like everyone he had some problems too. There are other issues more important that deserve attention.

 

[Kuzeh]

But to call MJ a musical genius is ridiculous.

This made me laugh...
sorry but just in case you don't know...
Michael Jackson composed a lot of the music for Off the Wall, Thriller and Bad, as well as his later albums...
He had full demos recorded before Jones' involvment...
even Quincy Jones has said it...

Michael Jackson composed the bass-line for Billie Jean,
which even though it's simple it's one of the most memorable
bass-lines of all time...

Fixed that for you!

I agree, but that's the media...
they dedicated most of the time during the trial to slam him with their accusations and prejudice,
and now all of the sudden they are cashing in on his death... it makes me sick...

I gotta agree with that. Billy Jean does have an amazing bass line.

That reminds me...I need to play the bass part of it on Rock Band World Tour.

Thats my favorite bass line in Guitar Hero. It actually comes the closest in feeling like you are actually playing an instrument.
