Is Micheal Jackson a legend ?

[guyrkp]

We are having a debate in the office. I want to do a small poll ! Is he a musical legend ?? Yes or no answers only please.

[blade']

I know you want yes or No but!! Quite simply..... YES! Pure genius. Anyone who disagrees is lying. Everyones danced or sang to a Michael Jackson song.

[sheffwed39]

yes but 100 percent a nut bar pedo.

[bobford1979]

YES, but he is a freak

[*ALFIE*]

unfortunately yes !

[Llamatron]

Yes.

He's also a complete fruitloop. I don't blame him though. I think he has been surrounded people who've exploited his fame and money ever since he was a kid. Just look at all the surgery, that is not the action of a balanced individual.

[bobford]

FREAK - yes

[B00]

Yep definitely- no one can deny is achievements (errr musically wise anyway!)

[naz_nomad]

Surely Michael 'Foot' is a leg-end?

[Jovica]

Yes fruit cake or not he is a definite legend.

[Alibobs]

No.

[troot28]

Like most of the responses I initially thought yes.
BUT why is he a legend???
Compare him with many other black soul artists & ask yourself :-
Has he recorded anything to compare with Marvin Gayes' What's Going On - NO
Stevie Wonders' Songs in the key, Innervisions or Fullingness First Finale - NO
Bobby Womack -The Poet - NO
Sam Cooke - A Change Is Gonna Come - NO
Sam Dees, Jackie Wilson, Otis Redding - The list is endless, chamone.

Yes he can dance but take away Quincy Jones and Rod Temperton and ask yourself if you are left with a legend?
I say NO chamone. hee ha

[denisdenis]

All wot he said - so no!

[troot28]

Thanks denisdenis - didn't Blondie (Debby Harry) sing a song about you?
Was she a legend?

[robbo82]

No. The word 'legend' is frequently misused these days. I suggest some of you look up the original meaning in the dictionary. You will be surprised as to the correct definition.

[Ctrak]

Nah...

[blade']

Robbo82, Please enlighten me with the "correct" terminology of the word legend. And anyway the question reads MUSICAL LEGEND. I'll vote again and say yes. He is a Legend, how can the biggest album of all time not alone put someone in that category, forgetting all the other awards and accomplishments. I do think the word Legend is overused though, but Michael Jackson has to be included as one! I heard someone say they thought Jason Donovan was a legend.... What the F*ck!!!!!!!!

[Leo1972]

yes.

[magicbeatle]

No!

[squeallyhoe]

thriller-yes genius personally hate him.
