“The more I think about Michael, and talk about Michael, the more I think that ‘King of Pop’ is not good enough,” said Motown Records founder Berry Gordy, who signed The Jackson 5 in 1968.

“I think he is simply the greatest entertainer that ever lived.”

Here’s your chance to pay your final tributes to Michael Jackson.

Michael Jackson, in my opinion, would not have had such a great impact without his dance routines and videoclips - an unfair advantage over such great artists as Elvis Presley and the Beatles. Even though there was no internet, no MTV or anything of the sort in the 1950s, Elvis became the best-selling solo artist of all time. He broke down racial and cultural barriers and touched billions of hearts. Although he never went on a world tour, he was known and loved the world over - and still is. What’s more Elvis ALWAYS SANG LIVE. He had the looks, he had the voice and he had the charisma to make him the greatest entertainer ever. Michael Jackson was an excellent dancer. Elvis was one of the greatest singers in the history of recorded music. Nuff said.
