So in regards to the post about vinyls from Jess. I am part of the group of kids who love vinyls. I don't have as many as she does (a whopping THREE on my side of the fence YAHHOO) but i think i am addicted to buying vinyls now-a-days just as i am addicted to the montana meth project (it's unrelated in every way but still crazy check it out [http://www.montanameth.org/]). You can buy vinyls just as easily as you can buy CDs (that is if you actually buy CDs today). i actually bought a vinyl at the last concert i went to (Trapped Under Ice - "Secrets of the World") and i was debating on either that vinyl or a t-shirt, now a t-shirt would be a more practical thing to buy BUT the vinyl was just unresitable But the only reason i don't have many vinyls is because i am dirt poor and don't have much spending money..... anyhoo
So Michael Jackson the topic of choice for me today. He just keeps coming back into my life (his death, guitar hero last semester, AMS209 this semester) and to be honest i am kind of sick of it. I'm am not a huge fan of MJ (sorry katie), but i do respect him as a musical artist because he did make a huge impact on music and he did have the top grossing album of all time (which is crazy). I hope i see the day where someone else takes that crown from his head because that would be CRAZY! and there would be a huge thing about it of course. any many then MJ's album sales will rise once again. who knows? maybe. maybe not. It's not impossible.......just very......improbable

I never liked MJ and I'm still not a big fan (not after he died, but after my sister played it constantly a few years ago) haha. I respect him as well, but I LOVE JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE. He's the real king of pop to me ;)
ReplyDeleteHaha Corey its ok....I know not everyone is a fan, and I understand where you're coming from. I am happy to read that you do respect him as a musical artist and realize his influence-that was my goal. And Jessica-you raise an interesting point. Now that would be a good topic for a paper-a comparison of Justin and Michael Jackson. A lot of people have claimed that JT is the new king of pop-and I think there is some weight to that statement. They do have a lot of similarities......
