SevenWonder 4,373 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Thriller wasn't even close to MJ's best songs on that album, IMHO. (Billie Jean was so much better.) But that video - along with Madge's Like a Virgin --basically started the video-as-art movement. BR is a better song in every sense. But Thriller, as the first concept video, probably had more over all impact. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People said the same about Madonna every few years and she did Ray Of light waaaaaaaay into her career. Lady Gaga has released 5 albums. There is plenty of time. Just because you got a B on a math test last week doesnt mean ya cant get an A today. Lol Right but it’s kind of clear she doesn’t care to be the next Michael Jackson.. and her moving away from videos and more towards vocals it seems like she wants to be Stevie nicks or another older rock lady as opposed to Madonna Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GypsyBabe 22,836 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 They are similar, but for different eras. Equally iconic songs with iconic videos. Though one video is in better quality... ⚯͛ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinny Legend 770 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 As much as i admire Gaga she stands no chance against MJ's legacy. Thriller along with its album wrote history that even Madonna hasn't surpassed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Adga 8,664 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Don't be delusional Of course It's Thriller. Bad Romance is very overrated in this place Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sipthistea 21,099 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I don't really like Thriller the song tbh, the only good thing about it is its music video. MJ has way better songs. So my pick is very clear Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PartySick 160,589 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Thriller is one of, if not the most impactful song in pop music imo. When you consider the video and accompanying album era. There's a reason it's the title track to the best selling album of all time You're stinky Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Older rock lady" made me laugh tho. Haha Speaking of Stevie, I got tickets to Fleetwood Mac JUST for the queen and im so ready. It's in Feb 2019...ridic wait. Lol.

joannesrats 26 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 It's 100% Thriller. It has more impact on culture, it's music video started the trend of big, meaningful videos. But societal standpoint alone, in their careers the songs are (so far, in Gaga's case) the same. They're both their biggest hits, biggest videos in terms of success, stuff like that. But that's not to say that Gaga won't be able to release a song that's bigger or better than BR. She's released better, just not bigger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
