Michael Jackson was no musical genius.

There is no evidence that he played any instruments, composed his songs or even wrote the lyrics.

He had a perfect voice as a child, but after adolescence it wasn't special.

People talk about his dancing, but he was hardly a professional dancer. There were millions better.

He was the focal point of some great shows, which mostly had nothing to do with him.

He had a massive amount of fans, they won't change their mind because they read your post so it's rather void.

He inspired millions...heck BGT just shows how many he inspired! All the dancing groups probably grew up watching his videos/perormances

H was a singer/songwriter who set the foundations for so much of our music today. As a child was he was amazing, so indredibly talented.
& in the 1980's when Thriller came out I think it changed the music industry forever, there was nothing like that around, a fish out of water & it is still some amazing iconic song, along with billie jean, man in the mirror, and beat it & all the others, they're just my top ones.

Look at all the people on the talent shows Britain's got talent, America's got talent so much of that is inspired by him. So many musicians have some forward today saying how Micheal inspired them, if it wasn't for him we wouldn't have half the music we have today.

yes, there is no evidence that he is a musical genius.
but he was a massive influence in the music world.
and honestly probably contributed the greatest music

Just have to say I'm not really a fan, but his music is incredible.

I'm not a fan of Michael, I never paid him much attention over the years, but like everyone else I knew his songs and knew how big they were.

Regardless of whether he did play an instrument or write a lyric, his legacy and influence is so massive that it WILL live on for so many years to come. Just look at twitter, so many artists, politicians, sportsmen and world leaders have paid tribute to him and mentioned how influenced they were by not only him as a musician, but as a person.

For his generation, his videos, albums and songs are far apart from others of them years and they are probably some of the most known from the 70's/80's/90's. He is a musical icon/genius, you cannot really dispute that. He titled himself the King of Pop, no one began calling him that, but millions obviously agreed and where ever he is now he'll forever be known as that.

Yesterday/today will be remembered for a very long time and instead of disrespecting the day, maybe you should be remembering where you were when you heard the news because it'll be a tale to tell some day.

I clearly didn't mean that, don't twist my words.

I meant FOR HIS FANS, your argument is void because it's hardly likely to change their opinion. Infact, no need for me to explain I meant that, since I literally said "they", in the last post.

Edit: Infact, look at your avatar and "location" - you're turning no-one. Not to mention the fact you're pushing non-fans to even disagree with you because of that.

Trying to have a sensible debate with it!!!:conf:
Good luck with that then!

Aswell can I just say he did write his own songs.

I remember on CBB they were asking La Toya what he wrote about Dirty Diana & Billie Jean about, he's known for writing.

So just void to his fans.Ok.
I did not say i was trying to change peoples opinions with this thread, I'm just stating what i feel . We are all entitled to have different opinions on whether he was a genius. I am just saying that he wasn't.

How can you hate like this on a man who has just did? Do you not feel bad posting this topic so soon after his death?

Give it a break man and pay respect to one of the most loved people ever.

So the OP cannot have a diffrent point of view on here without being slagged for it. There's a surprise. There were some sick threads on here last last night but this certainly isn't one.

Words like baiting are more offensive. Congratulations on this thread OP. You are obviously dealing with very small minded people tonight.

I can't see where the op is hating anyone he says that MJ is not a genius, well that si subjective, I think John Lennon is a genius but many would disagree!
Michael Jackson was loved by millions, but that doesn't make him any more special as a human being than a singer who only sells a few thousand
It's all a personal choice, the media are now saying what a great man he was, but not so long ago they always called him 'Wacko Jacko' so more hypocracy there!
As has been said many times before, don't believe the hype!!!

His voice may have been nothing special, however it was distinct and one-of-a-kind. that's worth far more.


People talk about his dancing, but he was hardly a professional dancer. There were millions better.

Millions who have been inspired by his style.

He was the focal point of some great shows, which mostly had nothing to do with him.

Just shows how popular he was then.
