Congrat Michael! We love you. The legend continues...
 
While the MICHAEL album may have missed expectations, the appetite for MJ's music is still very visible. Sales for Experience are doing amazing, as is his back catalog.
 
i get so happy when i hear the words MICHAEL JACKSON and NUMBER 1 in the same sentence, he deserves everything that is given to him..

I LOVE THAT MAN!

Agreed Smooth. But a successful new album is only going to help his catalogue sales. Another 'push' for 'Michael' - with a move back up the charts - would help to cement a good 2011 for MJ and his Catalogue'. :wink:

I see 'Michael' was the #2 best selling album 'Worldwide' again last week! More great news.
 
Fantastic!!

MJ is forever DA KING !!!
 
Michael will always be #1 regardless of chart positions. This is still, however, wonderful.
 
it's not only US, MJ is great over here in Poland too. All the time I see kids dressed up like Michael, with hats, black jacket, white socks. At parties I see people dancing like Michael. It's pretty unbelievable now.
 
Number Ones is still in charts all across the world and this was originally released in 2003, I remember getting a copy for my 17th birthday-its amazing isn't it :wub:
 
GOOD music sells in spite of the circumstances... Michael's music will be selling for many years to come

.... forever Mike!
 
Long Live the King of Pop/Rock/Soul/ Music/Entertainment and King of our hearts Sir Michael Jackson!!!:yes::woohoo::jump::clap::flowers:
