One thing i am shocked about is Frank Sinatras name on there.....i mean sure he was great once but i dont think anyone i know can name 3 songs he ever sang.
Like other's have said... Ol Blue Eyes was the ish! well before Elvis shook his hips.
and as for Tracks, damn aint you ever heard of "The Lady is a Tramp?, I've got a world on a string" :wub:
Frankie was a force of nature baby ^_^
Elvis had rhythm, he had some fluent moves that he learned .. What made his dancing known is that it was provacative for tv back then. That is what got peoples attention
BANG!!! you hear that? KOPV just hit the nail on the head
No, Elvis couldn't dance. If you think he could, then you don't know much about dancing. I said "as far as I know" he couldn't play anything but the guitar. So if he could play other instruemtns, great. And saying that beatboxing is a silly or uncool talent is meaningless and does nothing to help support your argument. Beatboxing is a major component Michael uses in writing music and he's damn good at it. It is a vocal talent totally seperate from singing, and shows great control over both vocal cords, being able to use each seperate from one another. You still haven't provided any kind of answer as to Michael only being able to do one thing more then Elvis. So far we have the ability to write and compose excellent music, the ability to dance (real, natural talent), the ability to beatbox, and depending on whether you tell me what else he could play, then the ability to play more instruments. Michael's own guitarist has said that he can play just about any instrument by ear and he is credited with having played the drums, guitar and keyboard on more then one track.
The point is, Elvis had two major talents. His voie and his charisma. Michael has about 5. His voice, dancing, songwriting, beatboxing and charisma.
damn..... someone just got owned! Killer post unk:
actually sales means alot, especially when u consider who's buying them in which Mj's case is literally people all over from the world in BIG numbers, Elvis' legendry status is limited to western countrys (yeah there might be some exceptions) but he never did and never could and certainly never will conquer the whole world the way MJ did, I dont think MJ fans are obsessed with sales I reckon they bring it up mainly because its a reflection of his diverse appeal and if u you want to talk about "actual talent" Michael still wins over Elvis.
