Sorry...but denying MJ was an obvious homosexual pedophile is indicative of a serious mental disorder....or someone who supports such a heinous act on children.

Thanks for outing yourself...

I can’t stand his music.

Anytime one of his songs comes on or a band doing a cover of one of his songs comes on, I change the station.

Only in America, can a poor black boy, grow up to be a rich white woman.

I’m partial to the Jackson 5’s first 4 singles, which all hit #1 during 1970:

I Want You Back
ABC
The Love You Save
I’ll Be There

What a year!

“Interesting that two acquittals would lead you to believe anything was ‘proven.’”

Yeah, acquitted solely because of his celebrity status..... Just like OJ.

Motown had top-notch studio musicians back then.

The Funk Brothers. They are credited with the music on more #1 hits than any other band. Rush Limbaugh liked to bring that fact up... few even know their name.

Probably Billie Jean but I’ll go with Rock With You because of that tasty hi-hat:

Yeah. Watch his moves in that video compared to the professional dancers. No one like him in that regard.

Perhaps... but were there any truly great things he did without Quincy Jones? (or earlier without Motown’s producers)

True. It's like Taylor Swift working with a top-notch producer like Max Martin, Aaron Dressner or Jack Antonoff. But it would have been very interesting to see Michael Jackson (if here were alive today); I still say he's out of the live performing business but probably learned to be a producer.

Not the greatest Jackson 5 song, but Darling Dear does have one of the best basslines ever recorded courtesy of Mr. Jamerson.
