Pet Shop Boys' Neil Tennant says Taylor's music doesn't come close to Michael Jackson

[River 104,869]

She barely has The Girl Is Mine aka MJ's worst song, even this one sounds better than all her discography.

Agree except the points that her music brings people together, bring people together to do what? obsess about her private life and dramas? maybe yes, and the lyrics are just as dissapointing as her music to me.

She definitely comes the closest in spirit imo

But her music alone? Nah

i would say her music too, Bad Romance is one of the best pop songs of all time, but i also think Gaga's music belongs to her own realm

Another Taylor flame bait thread yayyy

Yeah, what she said a long time ago about Madonna stuck with me

"I don't need a f*cking throne"

MJ absolutely sits on top of the industry as somebody whose influence bleeds through just about every mainstream artist alive today, even Gaga. Hell, especially Gaga, I see MJ everywhere in her work 

Buuut Gaga's done a fantastic job of removing herself, in my mind, from that entertainment pyramid that Mike sits on top of. She has her own world so far removed from everybody else

I think that’s something we should all be able to agree on.

The funny thing is that people are "so tired of hearing about Taylor Swift", yet they won't stop talking about her. If you don't like her music, or her in general, why waste your precious time hating on her?

And in regards to the band's claim, no one ever has said she is the next Michael Jackson. She has her own lane, Michael has his. The two are practically incomparable. If you want to compare success, you can't measure that either since music is consumed much differently in the digital age.
