Mister Gaga 22,039 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Anybody else think that Michael Jackson was bigger after his death than during his life??I mean, i know he's the king of pop and one (if not the most) of the most influential/powerfull artists of all time. But with all the pedophilia acusations, and the legal issues, his image was going down very quickly... Do you connect with his music? (not only like it). Of course, 'Beat It', 'Thriller' and much more are huge bops, but i never connected with them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HausOfNena 1,712 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 No, I don't think so... He's my #1 favorite artist. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody Draco 2,531 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 He was a talented performer AND artist so I have lots of respect for him and his work. However, I think his albums are overrated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mabel 205 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 He was huge during his life, we just didn't witness it because his biggest era was during the 80s, and most of us were little or hadn't been born back then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEARTHUNTER 7,611 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 He was my favorite artist. Now it's Gaga.But to answer your question, yes, his music is stellar Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
boobtank 9,090 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Nope. He was/is the biggest images of pop stardom & yes I connect with his music. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torsoface 3,262 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Don't like his music at allNot for me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mariomania1234 11,368 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 He had the highest peak of any pop star ever during the Thriller era. So I don't think so.I think people realized what exactly they lost and felt bad about the way they treated him in his final years.I connect very strongly not only to his music but his live performances. I've cried multiple times watching him perform. He was so passionate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chromatislaps 34,759 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 He was a talented performer AND artist so I have lots of respect for him and his work. However, I think his albums are overrated. that because most people only listen to Off The Wall, Thriller & Bad, and they have been overplayed to death. While his albums Dangerous, HIStory, Blood On The Dancefloor (& to some extent Invincible) are way more experimental, intrinsic and mature (most people forget those, while they are the better albums) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloody 64,631 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I'm sure that he was the biggest star on the planet during 80's and 90's, but I wasn't there to live it so I can tell.He's a legend anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haroon 49,685 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I've never connected with his music, which is weird because all of my siblings love him. My brother and oldest sister grew up listening to him and were big fans. Every time I heard songs by him I never really understood why people were crazy for them; I did like a song or two but I never loved them to death I guess it's easier to understand why people loved him so much if you have the knowledge about his discography and past and so on, I don't have that so I guess that's why I don't really understand it and can't begin to empathise There are some songs I really liked like Heal The World and Thriller (it was one of the first music videos I can remember watching) Oh and I thought he was just as big, if not bigger before his death. The craze for those 50 O2 dates was second to none Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just his classic singles. No disrespect intended. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
