Well you make good points because I'm not sure exactly but it was pretty much nobody crossed his path.

Also saying you don't want these riffs in your life time is pretty selfish. This whole hate thing is over the top, I didn't like him and his music at first but I realised he is just an entertainer and he made so many people happy with his awesome dancing.
I don't think it's selfish 'cos there still there, it's not like I own all his music and am hording it and stopping everywhere playing it.

What was with the giant statue he floated down the Thames? And the only wearing one glove thing? I can't comment on dance moves 'cos all choreographed routines in music videos are plain bizarre, just watch "all the single ladies" on youtube with the sound muted, that is meant to dancing? Maybe for a drunk.

It's out there and easily accessible to everybody I am just sick of him, everybody saying he's great and wonderful, when all I see is a really messed up (in every way) guy who produced mediocre (at best) music. Maybe in a few years people will only mention him on the day he died.

This is wildly off topic by the way and these are just my opinions. You can say you disagree with me but I am not wrong.

Hmmm I'm not sure, the attitude "I don't like this music so it shouldn't exist" is way up there.

Great! Now watch this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=un3-Hb9wF9s

If this isn't dancing to you then nothing is.

You bastard! How dare you pull the opinion card on me. No fucking shit it's your opinion! That's all it will ever be, it will never be fact but I might as well make good of these sentences and time I spend on this forum. If your just going to keep hiding behind "it's my opinion" then there will be no reason to discuss anything with you.

Also no one gives a damn this is off topic because it is a discussion, something that is valued on all forums.

That was totally uncalled for, it was a simple reminder that I disagree with you but thats all it is, an opinion so theres no need to to be too bothered by it then you start kicking off like that. Jeez.

Another thing is mosts in the thread have to do with the subject, you can't make a thread called "is what the Nazis did right? Then talk about star trek. (I don't think what the Nazis did was right)

I don't mind that it exists, I mind that it is praised so highly and he is constantly called the king of pop were as if it didn't exists in my life then I wouldn't have to be annoyed by it.

I can't watch that video 'cos of my location but if it's of jackson I can pretty much predict it's crap. I am by no means a dancer or an expert but dancing to me is the fox trot, the tango, the waltz, street dancing etc.

Not looking like a drunk having an epileptic fit.

No it was called for, it is really annoying when anoyone does it to anyone.

Also I simply asked why you didn't like Michael which was added on the end of my response to the thread, then you responded, then I responded and wullah, a discussion was born. There is nothing wrong with it, we didn't just start something without any reason so quit it.

With his music you never specifically said why you hate it, just that it's shit. Are you telling me now that you hear it all the time and your just sick of it, because I find that kind of reasonable however to prefer if it never existed is still a bit over the top. I hate almost every single 2000's pop song I hear on the radio and they bloody play it everywhere but I'm not going to damn it out of existence.

The video is of the zombie dance in Michael Jacksons Thriller video, doesn't matter to you though for it must be shit because it's so highly praised. Takes a lot more talent talent to perform this while singing so give it some credit.

You can disagree with me but I'm not wrong. It's just my opinion blah blah blah, how about you don't continue the discussion and end it with lets just agree to disagree.

Calling me a bastard 'cos of a simple reminder, thats an over reaction. Not wishing you never heard of a psycho singer and his average songs isn't an over reaction.

This is a thread about what you think everybody knows about except for somebody you know, who doesn't know about it ... this discussion is about Micheal Jackson.

I hate it 'cos it's praised as being great and it's mediocre at best, I have said that before. It's also not my kind of music, I would be ok with it if it wasn't praised so highly.

I never said I wanted it wrote out of history, I said I didn't want it in my life time, the previous or next generation could cope with him.

Oh my god, he is singing while dancing ... just like every singer in todays charts? Elvis was doing that before him, granted not on the same dramatic scale but it's not a vast difference.

Thanks for proving my point, your praising him for what everybody else is doing.

Well, my family are pretty luddite in their approach to new tech, what with being old southern folk, so anytime I mention e-mail, or that I saw something on the web, etc, they give me odd looks.

I still have to reprogram their remotes when the batteries die/fall out.

1. It's a very vast difference with the skill involved. It's highly praised because it's iconic as well.

2. You keep telling me it's shit over and over again with no talent and that he is insane while I just gave you the reasons while it is so. Then you tried to give examples why it is shit (and I'm a fan) and then when I give you an example then you couldn't give two shits, yeah that's pretty one sided isn't. Then I get "it's just my opinion, I can say this and this and you can't", no you just proved my point that your selfish and now your being sarcastic, don't expect friendly responses.

3. You hate it because it's highly praised? Everything is fucking highly praised these days! It's not your type of music, not everything will be everyones type. You preffered if it wasn't in your existence, yeah and many wish the holocaust wasn't part of theirs. Your fucking over reacting!

4. "It's a convo on Micahel Jackson" Yeah and it's OK to have because it was based of the things you wish you didn't know of. Oh wait that's not part of the discussion either but hell, you put it in anyway so fucking quit that crap!

Somebody is taking this to seriously. You relies that your the only one who seems to be getting wound up.

The difference is like walking and talking and running and talking, one is a bit more advanced but it's still pretty simple. Anybody can learn the lyrics to a song, work on a few add a few crazy dance moves then work on your cardio. It's not the hardest career on earth.

Two examples? I gave you a few that you said good points to and you couldn't respond to. Sleeping with kids, making them wear veils, giving them weird names, wearing one glove, dangling a baby over a balcony, having so much plastic surgery, floating a massive statue down the river Thames and I am sure theres more I am missing.

You even say I give you two examples (which I just proved wrong) and you only provide one, although I think I missed it (I am looking at other stuff you know).

I never said you can't say anything, you can say what you like ... doesn't mean I will agree with you.

I am being nuetral to you but your posting "non friendly" responses, don't see why. It's in my nature to be sarcastic so you can't hold that against me.

Most pop stars, even movie stars don't get the kind of praise he got/gets, he is deemed the king of pop, talk about bigging him up.

Thats there choice not to want in there life, they have no choice about the holocaust. I choose not to want MJ in my life and thats my choice, remember the thing about opinions? This is that thing. Except even now MJ dead I have to listen to his songs or see his DVD being advertised, they don't have to keep being reminded about the holocaust.

Nice comparison, MJ to the death of thousands of people. Thats over reacting, like name calling. Just chill.

Are you serious with number 4? The title of the thread is "You didn't know that?" who doesn't know of MJ? Seriously? Except maybe the under 10's, maybe 1 in million above 10?

If you want to start a thread called "who loves MJ?" or "what do you think of MJ" then I don't have a leg to stand on in terms of this point but in this thread you have no legs.

I've met people who have never heard Alfred Hitchcock, even if you haven't seen his films you should have heard of him. The shower scene in Pshcho is one of the most iconic in existence.

That and Led Zeppelin. Really? Get back under your rock.

Anyone can do it? Are fucking nuts? I mean seriously, do you really think the thriller dance is simple? OMFG! Yeah you really are a know it all.

Two examples? I gave you a few that you said good points to and you couldn't respond to.

You even say I give you two examples (which I just proved wrong) and you only provide one, although I think I missed it (I am looking at other stuff you know).

Where did I say 2? Anyway yeah the I'm mainly talking about how you brought up 'All the single lady's video' to criticise all his dance moves and then I give you his best work which you couldn't see and didn't bother with either.

Also you forgot why I told you Michael did all those weird things and that's because he didn't get good parenting and much education on all of lifes do's and don't's.


I never said you can't say anything, you can say what you like ... doesn't mean I will agree with you.

Actually you did since I said his moves in thriller are awesome and then you over reacted saying "Thanks for proving my point, your praising for what everyone else is doing". Guess that means all my opinions go out the window huh".

I am being nuetral to you but your posting "non friendly" responses, don't see why. It's in my nature to be sarcastic so you can't hold that against me.

Well I can because it's rude and you seemed to ignore that this whole convo is one sided since you can abuse Michael and I can't point out the good things he has done.

Most pop stars, even movie stars don't get the kind of praise he got/gets, he is deemed the king of pop, talk about bigging him up.

Everyone get's praised these days like I already said and Michael is called the King of pop because he had many hits and he invented some dance moves.

Thats there choice not to want in there life, they have no choice about the holocaust. I choose not to want MJ in my life and thats my choice, remember the thing about opinions? This is that thing.

The comparison thing only works the other way and your over reacting like the music is ruining your life.

WOW you completely missed the point! Yes the thread is called "You didn't know that?" and you said I wish I didn't know of Michael and what not, yeah your really on topic, get it now?

Your a hypocrite thinking I'm the only one taking this seriously who missed some of the points altogther, I'm not repeating myself anymore, you refuse to understand and really you have no leg to stand on.

Reply if you want but I'm not gonna bother with this one sided argument anymore.

The relies was a missed click, it's still a word though.

I don't know if you watch it but there was a show called big brother and they had to do the thriller video, guess what? in one week they knew it dance and words. So yes anybody can do it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GepZ5hM3nTw Thats the not the English one but still after a few days they can do it.

I have actually seen the thriller video a few times, there all zombies and MJ is wearing a read leather suit with a black trim and the dance looks pre school. Walking left and right with arms like that is his best work?

You said he wasn't taught to which I asked didn't anybody pull him to one side and tell him otherwise? I also said people don't get told to do things and they don't do them, I would never even think of doing some of the things he did, I also said it couldn't have been that bad 'cos his brother and sister are more "normal".

Go back and read what I wrote 'cos all I am doing is retyping the same stuff.

Seriously, what? How do you get from em saying say what you like to "my arguments go out the window"? If your accusing me of ignoring your posts, I have had to retype a fair bit so your guilty of your own accusation.

Name one move he invented and don't think moon walk 'cos all he did was rename it, it was called a backslide. Did he invent the crotch grab, the walking like a zombie?

How can a comparison only work one way? Your comparing two things, how can one be like the other but the other not be like the first? You have the nerve to call me thick? Over one spelling mistake and you have incorrectly spelled words aswell (if I remember correctly).

You are the only one taking this seriously, you seem to be getting wound up, I am relaxed and not name calling over something as petty as MJ.

I started off on topic until you asked, "whats wrong with Micheal Jackson?", get it?

To be honest, I don't recall watching Mad Max or Apocolypse Now, but it's rather because I'm more into the internet and computer games than TV and films.
Yeah it didn't surprise me so much they hadn't SEEN them. Being A little aged they are usually on at like 1 in the morning if at all on TV. It was more the fact they had not even heard of the series at all that got me. Most every post-apocalyptic setting has the flavour of Mad Max in there somewhere.
