Delve into “The Jacksons” era material tons of gems there

Pretty wild it was worked on in 1988, and nearly made Dangerous, before being finished in 1994/5 for HIStory

Special song

Only artist I've ever seen bring together so many people from different cultures, races, religions etc together in mutual appreciation of his performances and music. He could sing and dance like no other because he flowed like a physical conduit of spiritual energy.

MJ got fans who ain't even born yet. Dude was fhe hero we didn't deserve fr.

There is nothing binding (other than both are black and he was considered to be featured on Bad) between the two worlds to compare Prince to MJ. I realize with maturity it's an amateur discussion and pretty pointless outside of maybe shooting the s*** at a bar to pass the time with folks who are casual music consumers.

David Bowie is a better comparison to Prince for me.

bowie dont got nothing on prince im not gonna lie

he never had a unified vision of princes caliber and was always a chameleon and og trend chaser

bowie to me is the prime example of amazing music made by a completely unlikable doofus

was it from KOP that i found this old ass audiophile forum where one of the assistant producers for dangerous was telling stories about recording mj

the one where he said mj bought every possible synth or guitar of some kind to find the precise sound they were looking for

As we discussed a while ago I knew he loved Astaire, Gene Kelly etc but this blew my mind. Didn't realize Fosse was such a g.

MJ knew and studied all the greats and always told people of his inspirations

Student of the game in every sense of the word

I’ve always considered MJ and Prince equals but I don’t really compare the two. Two different branches of the same tree.

The song isn‘t going anywhere soon

Almost 20 million man insane

Didnt mj send it to prince before it got released? And they said damn unc still got it

the movie made me appreciate michael's music more.

Absolute GOAT artist ever across all genres

Yeah something like that. Absolute masterpiece

It’s a good song but who the hell is listening to beauty and a beat that much

The Lady in My Life being so under appreciated is so weird to me man, it’s one of THE definitive love making anthems

My top 5 in no specific order:

-rock with you
-remember the time
-the way you make me feel
-don’t stop till you get enough
-butterflies

been thinking about this recently, p much impossible but something like this

5. Don't Stop Til You Get Enough
4. D.S.
3. They Don't Care About Us
2. Beat It
1. Remember the Time

they dont care about us is one of those messages that you can read endless tons of all sorts of communist economic and other literature on and it can really be summed up with one simple phrase

same as rich get richer poor get poorer its hard to even begin to describe how profoundly it captures things

real for DS

not in my top 5 but real regardless

chamoney!
