I deleted flamewar posts, please stick into topic and not bring personal life above the music.

Anyway, a big reason why I chose Michael Jackson is for two reasons:

  1. I've done dances to his music in high school, we had a chatelaine boys club, and a part of his song was used, it got the crowd roaring
  2. I absolutely fell in love with This Is It. Easily one of the best movies I have seen.
And on top of that, I just really enjoy his music. It's upbeat, its fun, and he can dance like no other man I have ever seen.

Mom is a huge fan of MJ, and that made me love him! Remember the Black and White video? MJ goes as far back for me as Madonna in terms of musical memories. He's not my absolute favorite, but he's a part of my childhood!

I'm permanently closing this thread to avoid unnecessary war.

The Beatles won this poll, followed by Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley.

Over 1.3 billion Beatles albums have been sold. If you adjust costs to current values their sales are insane.

Who is the greatest?? I don't think they can be compared. I'm a HUGE fan of the Beatles (and was a HUGE fan of Jackson growing up) but I still have to say that each artist here was good at what they achieved for their genre. How can one compare Rock vs. Pop vs. Rockabilly?

I gotta choose The Beatles a smidge over MJ. Elvis isn't really my style.
