Michael Jackson or Elvis Presley?  | | Well, as you all know, Michael Jackson passed away a couple days ago. Michael Jackson has been dubbed the the greatest pop musician who ever lived. Similarly, Elvis Presley is the "King of Rock." Which do you think had a bigger influence on artists today? Who stepped further out on a limb to do something different? And finally, despite the record sales favoring Michael Jackson, which is the best overall musician?

| | 3. crimsonladybug (1941) | 6 months ago | Personally, I don't think either of them were that great. There is a theory that 90% of music listeners favor either Elvis or the Beatles and the other 10% either like both or neither. I favor the Beatles and (of the three) they really have had more of an influence on the music that I listen to (which is an amazingly vast variety).
Even though the record sales favor Micheal Jackson, I really don't think that is a measure of his skill, popularity, or influence. That involves comparing record sales from two different eras. Record sales are recorded in terms of total albums sold and in terms of the money made from the sales. Records when Elvis was popular cost less than they do now but people had less money for luxury items so they didn't buy them the way we do now. If a person bought an Elvis Presley record it was because they really felt it was worth the money. So the records that were sold were sold to people who really believed in the music. Today (or more so in the 90's and early 2000's), a huge CD collection is kind of a status symbol, especially among teens. The more CD's you have, the cooler you are. People are a little less discerning in their CD purchases in this era.
