Fair enough, not 100% sure of details and no guitar skills of my own to refer to,

Michael Jackson for us. We never really got into Prince but acknowledge how good he was/is. Suppose when you look at it (in our opinion) you hear many people associate Purple Rain with Prince, however, with Michael Jackson you don't really associate one particular song (well, we don't) as there's so many hits to choose from.

Jackson just rehashed all his dance moves, nothing new for years. He even stole the Moonwalk

Prince was a natural mover. Although he really channelled James Brown on his moves.

Oh, well it's not often I'am wrong (YeRight) but today is one of them days, that's the video I was talking about above, I was told he lost a string and that is why he shows the guitar about 5min in,

Prince without doubt.

The song 'Bad' was at one time discussed as being a duet between the two.

Prince did'nt care for it though citing that he would'nt sing the first line of 'Your ass is mine' to Jackson and that Jacko was sure as hell not singing it to him.

Prince never conformed to any one style. Look at the difference between the phenomenally successful Purple Rain and the album that followed it, Around The World In A Day.

Once he releases an album, he's done with it, and is moving on to his next project.

His output, whilst not always classic, is prolific.

But it's on stage where I feel he edges MJ. To play instruments better than his band members, excluding brass, to be one of the best guitarists ever (check out the While My Guitar Gently Weeps video mentioned earlier), and to have the ability to leap off a piano into the splits, then slide himself upright using his feet...incredible. An underrated dancer, although as mentioned, age is doing it's thing now.

Seen him many times, never fails to blow me away.

And yes, I did see MJ at the height of his fame. Meh, was OK.

Prince without doubt. Prince was pure talent: wrote the music, the lyrics, played the music, sang the lyrics, produced his own music, ran his own record label, wrote and produced hits for others and was a genuinely considered himself to be just another human being, nothing special other than his musical talents.

MJ didn't write much, couldn't write music, didn't play much, didn't do anything that wasn't on the backs of others talents. He considered himself an extraordinary talent that deserved to be loved and even worshiped. An adults ego wrapped up in the mind of a child. Talking of kids, his love of them went a little too far....

Thriller (his biggest success) captured the zeitgeist of the moment back in the 80's, out of the 12 songs he only wrote 4 himself, rather he only wrote 4 song lyrics himself. Rod Temperton wrote Thriller and it's him that knew Vincent Price not MJ.

So all in all, Prince was a really talented musician and writer, MJ captured a moment thanks to the hard work of others. They're not even in the same league.

They both had genius qualities, Prince was probably more of an all round musician and MIchael Jackson as the performer - nobody can deny that, the amount of records they both sold was incredible.

I prefer Michael Jackson's music, but loved the idea of Prince in terms of doing everything himself etc.

Prince I suppose

Jacksons music was good but I can't get past his weird relationships with children.

"Prince without doubt. Prince was pure talent: wrote the music, the lyrics, played the music, sang the lyrics, produced his own music, ran his own record label, wrote and produced hits for others and was a genuinely considered himself to be just another human being, nothing special other than his musical talents.

MJ didn't write much, couldn't write music, didn't play much, didn't do anything that wasn't on the backs of others talents. He considered himself an extraordinary talent that deserved to be loved and even worshiped. An adults ego wrapped up in the mind of a child. Talking of kids, his love of them went a little too far....

Thriller (his biggest success) captured the zeitgeist of the moment back in the 80's, out of the 12 songs he only wrote 4 himself, rather he only wrote 4 song lyrics himself. Rod Temperton wrote Thriller and it's him that knew Vincent Price not MJ.

So all in all, Prince was a really talented musician and writer, MJ captured a moment thanks to the hard work of others. They're not even in the same league.

pretty much this..

if one had written and produced an LP for the other then Prince's production would have outsold Jackson's..

Two hours after the other one dies and the police appeared.

Not a fan of either but it would be prince for me.. musical genius.. I read that there's a music vault of Prince tracks and only 30% of his work was ever released... there's 100's of unheard tracks...

Prince for me.

The sheer musicality of the man as a performer is unparalleled and places him with the greats of jazz, like miles Davies and Charlie Parker. He was so much more than a pop star.

"Prince. Better musician, better songwriter, better lyrics, better dancer and a better choice of sexual partners...

Now go and wash your mouth out with soap for uttering such rubbish. Prince a better dancer than MJ. Dont think so.

Jackson just rehashed all his dance moves, nothing new for years. He even stole the Moonwalk

Prince was a natural mover. Although he really channelled James Brown on his moves."

Channelled and by that you mean copied!
