“Who was bigger, MJ or Prince?” Michael. No question. I’m a Prince girl in my heart, but the phenomenon that was Michael Jackson probably will never be repeated. He was clearly the biggest star in the world. The hype was indescribable.
yeah idk why they have to bring Prince up. It's not kind to MJ cuz its disrespectful, and then its not kind to Prince to have to live up to being the most famous artist ever. Prince has to be enjoyed in his own light. MJ was literally the most famous thing to happen
like prince wasnt even CLOSE in terms of fame, the beatles and elvis weren't close tbh, but a bit closer in their heyday. MJ is more famous globally though
@@jk4675 Beatles were huge and looking at the fact that they were only active for 10 years is telling. However, they were definitely not on the level of MJ in terms of fame. When you see those old images, you see mostly young girls. Guys liked them too, but not as widely and openly. MJ spoke to a way broader audience in terms of age, race, gender.
Fun Fact: the three biggest pop superstars of the 80s; Michael Jackson, Prince, & Madonna; were all born in the Great Lakes region within two months of each other in 1958.
On the guitar there is Steve Stevens, Billy Idol’s top-notch guitarist (you might recognize him from a couple Billy Idol videos you’ve seen), equally responsible for Billy’s success as much as Billy himself.
Love, Prince....but, Michael?... the Greatest of all time! There will never be another...his music is Immortal. His music can bring, Universal Peace. Period.
Guys theres loads of mj music. I mean just look at the man in the mirror and think that your a smooth criminal but don't want to break the law so you decide to try and heal the world. That doesn't work so you go to work and people think your bad because you told them where to beat it. Its hard it's tough a hard life you think my family will you be there. And they are in your time of need ben, he gets you through the bad times and when you find yourself back on your feet you say THIS IS IT
It’s crazy realizing people have never heard his music because he was larger than life BEFORE the internet. Everyone across the globe no matter how remote knew who Michael was. His music will always be universal. Shout out to u guys.
Well they didn't call it Michael Mania for nothing. And it's important to note that only a handful of people have ever had a funeral as big as his. Off the top of my head Ava Peron and Abraham Lincoln I think there was one other person but seriously Michael had the biggest funeral I ever seen.
Love this song! *Fun Fact* : MJ performed at Wembley Stadium in 1988, with Prince Charles & Princess Di in attendance. He met them both. Princess Di pulled MJ away from the line saying she wanted to talk to him. She asked if he was going to do Dirty Diana tonight. He said, "No, no. I took it out of the show out of respect for you." To which she responded, "That's my favorite song!!" They were good friends & used to have phone chats. I hope they're still enjoying each other's companionship on the other side. 😇💞😇
There has never been, nor will there ever be, the complete package that is the phenomenon, not artist, a phenomenon, known as Michael Jackson. That man was truly mesmerizing. His self- expression was never feigned, and dripped wih charisma.
One of MJ’s greatest songs filled deep with meaning, emotion, dishonesty, lack of self-control, and manipulative behavior. This song is so well rounded it’s definitely worth dissecting stanza by stanza, line by line, word by word, and inflection by inflection to get a meaning, understanding, and appreciation of, “not only the song,” but Dirty Diana, herself. Her name alone screams volumes. As a high school English teacher, this is how I taught my students to appreciate poetry, through song lyrics, because they are poetry set to music.
@Bill Howe that is such a great way to teach English. I always used to love to read and write. One teacher stands out in my mind our music teacher who I took both music theory and music history with. He used to get the New York times and make us all look in the entertainment section and he explained the plays and everything and that was the best way for students who didn't already know any music theory or history become interested. Then he would give us a 20 page paper to write and he was teaching writing too. Thank you and thank my music teacher and thank all the teachers that we had over the years that were really great teachers and great innovators.
I agree 💯. When I was in junior high school my English teacher had stated the same concept in her way of teaching in which our particular class changed from English to Creative Writing. I've been complimented many times in my letter writing and how my simple story telling of writing about my life adventures as being poetic ✌️😎🙏
I agree ...but Mike said in a interview " he would do a complete rock album but my heart is always for r&b and soul ..... But I'll maybe one day deliver it for my fans " ..... Mike could of did rock but it wasn't his calling ....
The Way You Make Me feel, Remember The Time, Black or White, Smooth Criminal, You Rock My World. Two great songs with Paul McCartney - The Girl Is Mine & Say Say Say.
I admit...this has to be one of the best, iconic rock songs ever produced....Mr.Jackson killed this performance, simply superb without any contest... I do think he wanted to show the rest of the rock world : "...this is how you do it boys.." and he was right...
Michael had so much talent that you never knew what to expect from him. Love this one. Another one to check out is She’s Out of My Life. So much feeling in his voice. Beautiful.
One of my fav karaoke go to's, I try try my hardest to do him justice to the point of watery eyes. I don't care who's in the room. Mahalo for sharing. 🤙😎
Never close your eyes when you are watching a MJ clip. This question "who's bigger MJ or prince" just happens in USA because around the world this is a insane question, I'm from Brazil and MJ is probably considered the biggest artist of all time, every single one here know who is MJ and not everybody know who is prince.
This is the difference between him and everyone else and why it’s pointless to compare him to any other artist. Michael is global and known everywhere!
For real, africa doesn't know who prince is ,if there's any it probably is 5% of africas population but as for Michael I would say it's 99% every age group knows who michael is
Its the same here in India too...I know MJ and Prince but most of them don't know Prince cuz MJ was so popular back in the day even when there was no TV
I'm amazed at the fact that so many people have never heard this song. Even so called MJ fans. So introducing this song to people is one of my favorite things!!!
My absolute favorite MJ song ever! This is the song that introduced me to rock music as a child and I have been obsessed with MJ and rock ever since. I've been listening to Michael Jackson's music and watching his videos since I was 3 years old, he's also the reason I started dancing in elementary school. When he passed in 2009, I was 16 and it was one of the most devastating things I ever went through at the time... I pretty much cried for a week straight whenever someone mentioned his name or they showed video of him on TV. He was such an amazing and influential person in my life when I was growing up, so I totally understand where Amber is coming from when she talks about her love for him too. I loved this reaction ❤️😂
This and this was drilled into his head int he Jackson 5 days by his overzealous father. It's sad but is what made him the performer he was and he really was the world's best entertainer.
J/Amber, Michael Jackson's voice was so advanced at just 11 years old. When you get back to the Jackson 5, do their "Never Can Say Goodbye". Still gives me goosebumps today!
Got To Be There, does that for me. MJ and I were about the same age so hearing and seeing him do his thing REALLY blew my mind and still does!! Mahalo for sharing. 🤙😎
I grew up with him, I am 63, the same age he would be if he was still alive. My favorite stage of his career was during his early 20s before super stardom and his Off the Wall album. With great songs like ROCK WITH YOU and DONT STOP TIL YOU GET ENOUGH. He was in the 1978 remake of the Wizard of Oz , called The Wiz, he played the scarecrow and his dancing of course was mind blowing.
Fun fact: this was princess dianas favorite song by MJ. He did a performance for her and prince charles way back in the day and she asked if this was in the set. He told her no he took it out outta respect for her. He spoke to her right before the show and didnt have time to put it back in. She was very dissapointed. He spokr about this in a interview he did years ago.
Was actually going to comment about that. I guess there is a video where she talks to him about it and you see him shaking his head and explaining why he wasn't.
I was wondering if it was about her. I know she liked the pop stars and athletes. I don't think Harry is Prince Charles son. The red hair? Diana & Charles didn't have red hair. William looks like Charles but Harry doesn't. Didn't she have a fling with a red-haired rugby player named James while she was with Charles because she knew he was cheating on her with Camilla?
Both MJ n Prince set the standard of greatness. Prince 'strengths' was his live performances being that he was musician who could play every instrument( mainly the guitar). MJ 'strengths' was of course dancing. So they were equal n GOAT' ness but n different ways.
Let’s not fool ourselves MJ was more than a dancer he was actually more talented than Prince or any Music Artist could ever be he had so much in his utility belt also MJ is the most known Human Being Since Jesus Christ PERIOD! And he started when he was a child way before Prince was even know. There Is No Question MJ was Bigger Than Prince Or Anyone To Ever Live Other Than Jesus Christ🙇🏽♂️👑🌟✨💯
@@Milkers777 I don't how he was more talented but, he had a 20 yr headstart n GOAT ness even before Thriller. After Thriller he could do no wrong. The fact that his greatness was Global only meant he had better promotion of his 'Brand'. They both had their own lane.
@@demetriusbean8931 that’s Reality having a headstart isn’t a bad thing it made him more iconic than he already was from Childhood to Adulthood he dominated why should we compromise MJ’s career to benefit Prince’s subpar career🤷🏽♂️👑✨💯💯💯
Michael Jackson is the man. RIP May God forgive our sins snd give us everlasting life. May God be with you always Michael Jackson 🙏🏾. I will always love you
One of his best!! 😍 When he dropped this...and Janet dropped "Black Cat"...WHOOOOOAA! These 2 can rock so hard!! "Give Into Me" hits like this song does too...with Slash on guitar. Pure Musical Genius!!
It's been whispered for years that both Michael and Janet really wanted to be hard rock/metal stars had their careers not been sort of mapped out for them already and they really show that a few times.
Amber - we all feel the love girl. MJ was my very first ever concert at 10 years old in 1984. It was his Victory Tour in Toronto. I still have the ticket and the bus pass. He and his bodyguards actually walked past my parent's table in Vegas when they went there for their anniversary. Billie Jean, Beat It, Man in the Mirror, The Way You Make Me Feel, Black or White, Ben, and Will You Be There (from Free Willy) are my top favourites. Also you MUST do the video for Say Say Say with MJ and Paul Macartney. It's absolutely brilliant - and amazing. Much love from Canada!
This is one of my favorites. He did a concert in front of Prince Diana and she asked him before the concert started, are you going to do Dirty Diana and he said no out of respect for her and she beg him to sing it.The full concert is on youtube. Next you should do is You Are Not Alone. His voice is so beautiful in that song.
Steve Stevens is a guitar Gawd! He shredded it. Mike showed the world how you do it right. What a performance. BTW..Michael sang at the Superbowl in Jan 1993 in Pasadena, Ca. It was Dallas vs Buffalo.
Prince was a star. Michael Jackson was a superstar. How many impersonators of Prince you see on the streets? MJ impersonators everywhere in the world. Every year on June 25 people brining MJ pictures and 11:42 flowers to US embassy’s allover the world
There is no comparison to MJ. Literally Cradle to the Grave he made music that the world loved. White, Black, Asian, Indian, Mexican etc embraced his music.
Prince might have good songs....but MJ is the KING!....he had the stage presence, the dancing, the voice...had it all! The dancing alone mesmerizes me...even to this day.
Music ran through his veins and his body. Someone who truly deserved the name King of Pop. If anyone tells you they don't like Michael Jackson they are lying. Try some of the early Jackson 5 " The Love You Save " or " I Want You Back". They are on my playlist and I listen to them regularly. Even as a child he was simply amazing .
@@shelbysnyder8109 I now realize the figurative color in your comment and do apologize for the overly sensitive objection to the "Lieing" remark. I am deleting my response to you not wanting to disrupt the kindness within Jay & Amber's channel. Btw, I have since "chilled" 😎
Michael Jackson was a very diverse artist. You two should react to Heal The World, Man in The Mirror, The Earth Song, Have You Seen My Child Hood, Remember The Time, and They Don't Really Care About Us to experience even more music and video diversity from MJ. Also you might want to check out Scream (He recorded this one with his younger sister Janet Jackson, who is a super star in her own right, and it is the most expensive music video of all times. No other music video has surpassed it's cost to date).
"I love love" They Don't Really Care About Us", it reminds me of the days following MJ's death and they were playing all of his music non-stop for days, my granddaughter was visiting and was watching all the videos from his childhood forward and exclaimed" OMG, ,Micheal Jackson was black?!!!!" I am ashamed to admit I laughed historically!!! Because it hit me why would a new generation know that he was black, he had gotten so light-skinned, I now know, it had a lot to do with " vitiligo", but I still thought it comical, because kids are so observant and just speak thier truth, innocently. But we also danced in my living room to "They Don't Really Care About Us". Tee copied the dance he was doing, and all the people in the video were doing it also with such joy!!!! I miss his presence and talent as much as the world does!!!!
Dear Jay and Amber, I am one of your most recent family additions as of today. I LOVE your 'vibe' and that you both are so open to learning about new music. I have been entertained for the last few weeks since I found your page. I listened to at least 2 of your 'reactions' on my way home from work. Now that I am in the family, I can get the new additions as I listen to most if not all of the past ones. Keep up the good vibes and the smiles.
One of my favorite classics from M.J. I'm an old lady.😂 I'm 46. I have been a fan of Michael Jackson since I was 6 years old. Watching him live in concert in Dallas TX was the best nights ever and that is when he was on his BAD tour back in 87. Thank you for this positive reaction video.
There is no doubt that his musical talent was just outta this world. Even as a child in the Jackson Five, he was outstanding. I feel he is so much more than Prince.imo
@@ncexnyc4466 Writing all your songs doesn’t mean all are good, js. But MJ wrote & composed many of his, including Dirty Diana. He’s in the Songwriters’ Hall Of Fame for a reason
I am from Leeds in the UK and I saw him in concert back in 1988. He played at Roundhay Park in Leeds and it was one of the best concerts I have ever been to. It was one of the saddest days when we lost him.. RIP MJ, the King of pop 💕
Born in 74, Im so glad i grew up in the 70s 80s 90!!!! Had a chance to listen to all the Greats!!! Elvis And Michael was just right at the Top!!!! And i lived his documentary, since the 80s and i bought my first cassette Thriller in downtown calgary canada!!! STILL have it😊, and this Dirty Diana rocked it!!! MJ the best, but also loved Prince!
My parents did the same thing, Amber. They watched Michael Jackson documentaries. It was mainly my dad. He had MJ records (vinyl) and would play them. He had the MJ documentaries on VHS and would play them. That's how I was introduced to Michael Jackson. I remember being a kid and watching this man and being so enamored. MJ was an anomaly to me.
I absolutely LOVE this song, but Ms. Amber wins the award for THE BEST chair dancing on this one! Girlfriend was IN THE ZONE! As far as who was more popular, MJ was probably more recognized worldwide. His music was more pop and PG oriented, whereas Prince was the bad boy of a combination of rock, soul and funk, far edgier and appealing more to the R and sometimes X-rated crowd with his lyrics, pushing the boundaries and exuding sexuality. It all boils down to a matter of taste. Both great performers, songwriters, singers, but Prince actually played and mastered a multitude of instruments. IMHO, Michael Jackson was BAD, but Prince was a genius!
Prince flaunted whereas MJ teased. MJ drove people crazy for a reason, including straight men lol. MJ songs aren’t always as “straight-laced” as people think either, just not explicit. Many of his songs are actually dark in theme like this Dirty Diana, This Place Hotel, Morphine, Little Susie, even Billie Jean. He was a great storyteller. He also liked to play w/ words & let people give their own meaning eg Leave Me Alone. MJ also started trends, & set the bar others try to aim for., in many aspects. Beyond genius, he was a visionary!
I whole heartedly agree with you. Michael Jackson was undeniably GREAT! But Prince was a True GENIUS!!! Not only was he was prolific song writer but he could play practically every musical instrument imaginable!
@@piperpearson7454 Playing instruments is a dime a dozen, so many people in the world can do that. MJ was not only great & a genius himself, but also a visionary who influenced artistry in many aspects not just music.
lets not forget that MJ has been HUGE almost his whole Life!....I love Prince also! but Prince was 19 before he got signed, Both Michael and Prince are Wonderful Artist I myself dont think he was "Better" than MJ, he actually probably learned a lot from MJ
As far as MJ tunes it doesnt get better than Dont stop till you get enough, Rock with you, Human Nature and Dirty Diana This is one of my favs of all time
4:29 idk how, but only Michael jackson can make wiping ur face look cool and give u butterflies or goosebumps and make ur heart race. He’s not just the king of pop, he’s the king of making his fans faint at concerts. No celebrity has more charisma and swagger than Michael. Not even Elvis.
The 80s was by far the best music and movies ever,,If you had a party or a school dance back then it was crazy how good the music was..Mj was an icon then and still now...
Funny story: I, like your parents, made sure my children grew up on MJ (I’m 48) When he passed away, my son called his girlfriend with the news and her response was “so”? My son is a HUGE MJ fan and they almost broke up over that LOL. Instead, he taught her everything she needed to know about MJ and they are married to this day ♥️
Michael Jackson and Prince were two excellent musical artists in own right. Both gave their greatness, passion, emotion, creativity for the world to enjoy forever!!
You can like both but MJ was global. He was inspired by the groupies that went after his brother's (this song) When he died the internet had stopped sorry Farrah he had died and took away your admirers. Prince was a legend in his own right he was very musical and good performance s live. He seems shy he was smart to stay in Minneapolis.
Sadly the first time I heard this song was the day after he died. They were playing nothing MJs music videos on tv and I was asleep with the TV on, and woke up to this song and was like broooo what song is this lol he was such a genius.
I never was a really huge Michael Jackson fan. Sure, I knew some his music and I liked some of it. But this?!? When this song dropped, I fell in love with it the first time I heard. And that almost never happens. This song ROCKS!!!!
I think Jordan noticed that there's much more to Michael than "Hee-hee". 🤔😄 I love this song and the way he performs it! Wow! It's always been a favorite. I always rock out to it like Amber did! 😁 Check out - "Workin' Day and Night' (horns!) "Liberian Girl" "I Can't Help It" "Rock With You" "Get On the Floor" " Don't Stop Til You Get Enough" "Off the Wall" "Scream" (duet with his sister Janet.) "Stranger In Moscow" "Jam" "Earth Song" "You Are Not Alone" "Childhood" " Remember the Time" " Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' " "Smile" " Little Susie" (It's a tough one for the emotions, considering how upset you became over" Concrete Angel" ......just know that you've been warned.) 😢
“Who was bigger, MJ or Prince?” Michael. No question. I’m a Prince girl in my heart, but the phenomenon that was Michael Jackson probably will never be repeated. He was clearly the biggest star in the world. The hype was indescribable.

Stevie Stevens check him out 👍
Michael Jackson is music in a human form.
We're all music, whether singing dancing or listening and listening to Ving.... And isn't it great!
Listening and loving.... That's our part of him and all the ones we feel
Exactly.
Who best between Mj or Hendrix 😃 Artist wise
@@archangel3386 don't know much about Hendrix except that he was an amazing guitar player.
Love, Prince....but, Michael?... the Greatest of all time! There will never be another...his music is Immortal. His music can bring, Universal Peace. Period.
There'll never be another Prince either, mind you. Both were superb in their own way. God, I miss them both so much. May they RIP.
Man in the Mirror is one of his best in my opinion
I also love "Leave Me Alone"---the official video is too cool for words!!
Listen to his performance on the 1988 Grammys
Another vote for Man in the Mirror.
Oh yes!
Guys theres loads of mj music. I mean just look at the man in the mirror and think that your a smooth criminal but don't want to break the law so you decide to try and heal the world. That doesn't work so you go to work and people think your bad because you told them where to beat it. Its hard it's tough a hard life you think my family will you be there. And they are in your time of need ben, he gets you through the bad times and when you find yourself back on your feet you say THIS IS IT
“He’s not coming back, because he’s sleeping with me” that part goes hard🔥🔥
yes it does...that's what made Diana "dirty"....stops at nothing to get what she wants
Prince had "Darling Nikki" and Michael had "Dirty Diana." They were always competing.
Prince was to Michael Jackson what what The Rolling Stones were to The Beatles, Both are truly iconic but there is still a clear pecking order
the 80s was unstoppable. The whole decade was a 10 year party
It’s crazy realizing people have never heard his music because he was larger than life BEFORE the internet. Everyone across the globe no matter how remote knew who Michael was. His music will always be universal. Shout out to u guys.

Yes yes yes.. To be that famous pre-internet is crazy. Grandmothers in Africa knew his name.
Jordan is not very bright case u haven't relieved
True story because my students right now are nine years old, and they all know who Michael Jackson is. Oh, and these are all Asian children!
Steve Stevens is a BEAST on guitar.

Dirty Diana was a "rockin" surprise from Michael. I love this song.
Yup, pretty sure it's the 'heaviest' song he ever did, right?
Even in the first 10 seconds of this song there are sounds nobody had heard before.
There has never been, nor will there ever be, the complete package that is the phenomenon, not artist, a phenomenon, known as Michael Jackson.
That man was truly mesmerizing. His self- expression was never feigned, and dripped wih charisma.
If you liked Dirty Diana you will love "Give in To Me" by MJ. Has that rock element to it.
Yaaaaas!
Love that song!!

I think he should have sung more hard rock songs, just like this. He certainly had the pipes to sing this genre.
Agreed. In some ways, he seemed more “at home” in this genre. Like he could have given rock bands a serious run for their money had he focused on rock
I agree ...but Mike said in a interview " he would do a complete rock album but my heart is always for r&b and soul ..... But I'll maybe one day deliver it for my fans " ..... Mike could of did rock but it wasn't his calling ....
@@hebrew26commandmentspower55 When did he say this? Just imagine if rock was his calling...i mean, he was just that good!
Michael Jackson. The King of music 👑. Now bend the knee
and MJ wrote, produced and composed Dirty Diana himself... then perform it with such perfection...that's genius..
Him and Quincy Jones
I LOVE THIS SONG...alot of people underestimated Dirty Diana and its one of his best!!!
Totally agree i love this 1 ❤
I agree one of my go to all the time
It's in my top 5 MJ faves.
Nobody hands out goose bumps better than MJ.

MJ is on a higher level. From concerts sold, videos, clothing, chart-topping, etc. He was also a shrewd businessman.
MJ had unbelievable stage presence. Such a gifted performer. Stevens got amazing tone in all the guitar parts. This is truly a work of art👍
This and this was drilled into his head int he
Jackson 5 days by his overzealous father. It's sad but is what made him the performer he was and he really was the world's best entertainer.
There is a reason why MJ is known as The King of Pop!!!!
I remember people blasting this song in their car the day he died, while driving around town. Will never forget it.
I did too hahahaahah
Factually, MJ was MUCH bigger than Prince. From record sales, hits, etc.
Not even up for discussion there...
But who you LIKE more is preference.
Michael Jackson sooo talented. One of my favorite MJ. Songs
J/Amber, Michael Jackson's voice was so advanced at just 11 years old. When you get back to the Jackson 5, do their "Never Can Say Goodbye". Still gives me goosebumps today!
Got To Be There, does that for me. MJ and I were about the same age so hearing and seeing him do his thing REALLY blew my mind and still does!!
Mahalo for sharing. 🤙😎
@@8fran08-47 That was my second choice. Now that I think about it, should have been my first choice!!
Who's loving you owned me as a little girl. Still does!
@@surlechapeau Can't go wrong with MJ! 🤙😎
Absolutely!
I grew up with him, I am 63, the same age he would be if he was still alive. My favorite stage of his career was during his early 20s before super stardom and his Off the Wall album. With great songs like ROCK WITH YOU and DONT STOP TIL YOU GET ENOUGH. He was in the 1978 remake of the Wizard of Oz , called The Wiz, he played the scarecrow and his dancing of course was mind blowing.
Fun fact: this was princess dianas favorite song by MJ. He did a performance for her and prince charles way back in the day and she asked if this was in the set. He told her no he took it out outta respect for her. He spoke to her right before the show and didnt have time to put it back in. She was very dissapointed. He spokr about this in a interview he did years ago.
Was actually going to comment about that. I guess there is a video where she talks to him about it and you see him shaking his head and explaining why he wasn't.
I saw that interview just the other day.
Actually it was a concert at wembley stadium in 1989. Just a little update 😊
I was wondering if it was about her. I know she liked the pop stars and athletes. I don't think Harry is Prince Charles son. The red hair? Diana & Charles didn't have red hair. William looks like Charles but Harry doesn't. Didn't she have a fling with a red-haired rugby player named James while she was with Charles because she knew he was cheating on her with Camilla?
@@krisdoggett483 Diana's brother, Earl Charles Spencer has red hair.
Gawd DAMN MICHAEL JACKSON IN HIS PRIME! Never forget!
"I don't care what you say, I wanna go too far. I'll be your everything, if you make me a star, Dirty Diana!"
I still get the chills when the first chorus kicks in accompanied by the drum crash and the guitar. Amazing.
Nobody was bigger than MJ in his prime in the 80’s. They were both great but Michael was known around the world.
Both MJ n Prince set the standard of greatness. Prince 'strengths' was his live performances being that he was musician who could play every instrument( mainly the guitar). MJ 'strengths' was of course dancing. So they were equal n GOAT' ness but n different ways.
Let’s not fool ourselves MJ was more than a dancer he was actually more talented than Prince or any Music Artist could ever be he had so much in his utility belt also MJ is the most known Human Being Since Jesus Christ PERIOD! And he started when he was a child way before Prince was even know. There Is No Question MJ was Bigger Than Prince Or Anyone To Ever Live Other Than Jesus Christ🙇🏽♂️👑🌟✨💯
@@Milkers777 I don't how he was more talented but, he had a 20 yr headstart n GOAT ness even before Thriller. After Thriller he could do no wrong. The fact that his greatness was Global only meant he had better promotion of his 'Brand'. They both had their own lane.
@@demetriusbean8931 that’s Reality having a headstart isn’t a bad thing it made him more iconic than he already was from Childhood to Adulthood he dominated why should we compromise MJ’s career to benefit Prince’s subpar career🤷🏽♂️👑✨💯💯💯
@@Milkers777 apparently MJ was greater than Prince, Stevie Wonder, Smokey Robinson, JayZ, ( insert GOAT). OMG.
@@demetriusbean8931 ehm hell yeah 🤦🏾♀️
Michael Jackson is the man. RIP May God forgive our sins snd give us everlasting life. May God be with you always Michael Jackson 🙏🏾. I will always love you
One of his best!! 😍 When he dropped this...and Janet dropped "Black Cat"...WHOOOOOAA! These 2 can rock so hard!! "Give Into Me" hits like this song does too...with Slash on guitar. Pure Musical Genius!!
And just as Michael took "Dirty Diana" to #1, Janet took "Black Cat" to #1. Heavy metal was huge in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
It's been whispered for years that both Michael and Janet really wanted to be hard rock/metal stars had their careers not been sort of mapped out for them already and they really show that a few times.
Amber - we all feel the love girl. MJ was my very first ever concert at 10 years old in 1984. It was his Victory Tour in Toronto. I still have the ticket and the bus pass. He and his bodyguards actually walked past my parent's table in Vegas when they went there for their anniversary. Billie Jean, Beat It, Man in the Mirror, The Way You Make Me Feel, Black or White, Ben, and Will You Be There (from Free Willy) are my top favourites. Also you MUST do the video for Say Say Say with MJ and Paul Macartney. It's absolutely brilliant - and amazing. Much love from Canada!
I was thinking of suggesting the exact same songs.
Don't forget that he won 8 Grammy statuettes in 1984. He was the fisrt artist to win that many. He was the King of Pop for a reason.
This is one of my favorites. He did a concert in front of Prince Diana and she asked him before the concert started, are you going to do Dirty Diana and he said no out of respect for her and she beg him to sing it.The full concert is on youtube. Next you should do is You Are Not Alone. His voice is so beautiful in that song.
Yes! I love this! Always think of her when I hear this song. ❤
Steve Stevens is a guitar Gawd! He shredded it. Mike showed the world how you do it right. What a performance. BTW..Michael sang at the Superbowl in Jan 1993 in Pasadena, Ca. It was Dallas vs Buffalo.
Prince was a star. Michael Jackson was a superstar. How many impersonators of Prince you see on the streets? MJ impersonators everywhere in the world. Every year on June 25 people brining MJ pictures and 11:42 flowers to US embassy’s allover the world
There is no comparison to MJ. Literally Cradle to the Grave he made music that the world loved. White, Black, Asian, Indian, Mexican etc embraced his music.
Indians are Asians
I’m 58, always loved this song, and just recently found out that ‘Dirty Diana’ was actually a nickname for groupies😅 One of his best!
Good One!!!! I always thought this song was a great blend of R&B, Rock, and Michael’s singing here has a smooth rap flow to it ❤️
My favourite Michael Jackson track. Love Steve Stevens’ guitar work on this!
MJ was amazing. Every hit is distinctive. His ability to emote is unsurpassed. He was a true treasure.
Prince might have good songs....but MJ is the KING!....he had the stage presence, the dancing, the voice...had it all! The dancing alone mesmerizes me...even to this day.
Music ran through his veins and his body. Someone who truly deserved the name King of Pop. If anyone tells you they don't like Michael Jackson they are lying. Try some of the early Jackson 5 " The Love You Save " or " I Want You Back". They are on my playlist and I listen to them regularly. Even as a child he was simply amazing .
@@shelbysnyder8109 I now realize the figurative color in your comment and do apologize for the overly sensitive objection to the
"Lieing" remark. I am deleting my response to you not wanting to disrupt the kindness within Jay & Amber's channel. Btw, I have since "chilled" 😎
King be an understatement mate 🔥🔥🔥 it should be God
Michael Jackson was a very diverse artist. You two should react to Heal The World, Man in The Mirror, The Earth Song, Have You Seen My Child Hood, Remember The Time, and They Don't Really Care About Us to experience even more music and video diversity from MJ. Also you might want to check out Scream (He recorded this one with his younger sister Janet Jackson, who is a super star in her own right, and it is the most expensive music video of all times. No other music video has surpassed it's cost to date).
"I love love" They Don't Really Care About Us", it reminds me of the days following MJ's death and they were playing all of his music non-stop for days, my granddaughter was visiting and was watching all the videos from his childhood forward and exclaimed" OMG, ,Micheal Jackson was black?!!!!" I am ashamed to admit I laughed historically!!! Because it hit me why would a new generation know that he was black, he had gotten so light-skinned, I now know, it had a lot to do with " vitiligo", but I still thought it comical, because kids are so observant and just speak thier truth, innocently. But we also danced in my living room to "They Don't Really Care About Us". Tee copied the dance he was doing, and all the people in the video were doing it also with such joy!!!! I miss his presence and talent as much as the world does!!!!
Most versatile artist ever. The goat.
Always cuestioned
This song is danced ? Because listen of this is a ballad/rock
Dear Jay and Amber,
I am one of your most recent family additions as of today. I LOVE your 'vibe' and that you both are so open to learning about new music. I have been entertained for the last few weeks since I found your page. I listened to at least 2 of your 'reactions' on my way home from work. Now that I am in the family, I can get the new additions as I listen to most if not all of the past ones. Keep up the good vibes and the smiles.
michel jackson is the best
Michael was a BEAST in this video.
One of my favorites. Michael rocked it out on this one and Steve Stevens on guitar 🎸 💕💕💕🤟🏼
That song gives me goosebumps every time! One of his best!
One of my favorite classics from M.J. I'm an old lady.😂 I'm 46. I have been a fan of Michael Jackson since I was 6 years old. Watching him live in concert in Dallas TX was the best nights ever and that is when he was on his BAD tour back in 87. Thank you for this positive reaction video.
I watched Michael Jackson grow up on tv. His life was amazing and sad. His musical abilities are above reproach, a first class artist.
Those women are screaming in the audience woah 😱
There is no doubt that his musical talent was just outta this world. Even as a child in the Jackson Five, he was outstanding. I feel he is so much more than Prince.imo
Who tf is Prince compared to MJ? MJ is the greatest artist that ever lived. Prince wasn't even that well known around the world.
To each his own. I'll take the Purple One as he wrote his own songs and provided numerous hit songs to other artists as well.
@@ncexnyc4466 Writing all your songs doesn’t mean all are good, js. But MJ wrote & composed many of his, including Dirty Diana. He’s in the Songwriters’ Hall Of Fame for a reason
This along with Billy Jean are my favorite MJ songs - by far.
I am from Leeds in the UK and I saw him in concert back in 1988. He played at Roundhay Park in Leeds and it was one of the best concerts I have ever been to. It was one of the saddest days when we lost him.. RIP MJ, the King of pop 💕
29 August 1988 - which also happened to be the day the King of Pop hit the Big 3-0. :)
Born in 74, Im so glad i grew up in the 70s 80s 90!!!! Had a chance to listen to all the Greats!!! Elvis And Michael was just right at the Top!!!! And i lived his documentary, since the 80s and i bought my first cassette Thriller in downtown calgary canada!!! STILL have it😊, and this Dirty Diana rocked it!!! MJ the best, but also loved Prince!
My parents did the same thing, Amber. They watched Michael Jackson documentaries. It was mainly my dad. He had MJ records (vinyl) and would play them. He had the MJ documentaries on VHS and would play them. That's how I was introduced to Michael Jackson. I remember being a kid and watching this man and being so enamored. MJ was an anomaly to me.
I absolutely LOVE this song, but Ms. Amber wins the award for THE BEST chair dancing on this one! Girlfriend was IN THE ZONE!
As far as who was more popular, MJ was probably more recognized worldwide. His music was more pop and PG oriented, whereas Prince was the bad boy of a combination of rock, soul and funk, far edgier and appealing more to the R and sometimes X-rated crowd with his lyrics, pushing the boundaries and exuding sexuality. It all boils down to a matter of taste. Both great performers, songwriters, singers, but Prince actually played and mastered a multitude of instruments. IMHO, Michael Jackson was BAD, but Prince was a genius!
Prince flaunted whereas MJ teased. MJ drove people crazy for a reason, including straight men lol. MJ songs aren’t always as “straight-laced” as people think either, just not explicit. Many of his songs are actually dark in theme like this Dirty Diana, This Place Hotel, Morphine, Little Susie, even Billie Jean. He was a great storyteller. He also liked to play w/ words & let people give their own meaning eg Leave Me Alone. MJ also started trends, & set the bar others try to aim for., in many aspects. Beyond genius, he was a visionary!
@@oemisc2880 very well said
I whole heartedly agree with you. Michael Jackson was undeniably GREAT! But Prince was a True GENIUS!!! Not only was he was prolific song writer but he could play practically every musical instrument imaginable!
@@piperpearson7454 Playing instruments is a dime a dozen, so many people in the world can do that. MJ was not only great & a genius himself, but also a visionary who influenced artistry in many aspects not just music.
lets not forget that MJ has been HUGE almost his whole Life!....I love Prince also! but Prince was 19 before he got signed, Both Michael and Prince are Wonderful Artist I myself dont think he was "Better" than MJ, he actually probably learned a lot from MJ
As far as MJ tunes it doesnt get better than Dont stop till you get enough, Rock with you, Human Nature and Dirty Diana This is one of my favs of all time
MJ is Magic❤
There are other greats but even they know there is no one bigger than MJ. Period.
4:29 idk how, but only Michael jackson can make wiping ur face look cool and give u butterflies or goosebumps and make ur heart race. He’s not just the king of pop, he’s the king of making his fans faint at concerts. No celebrity has more charisma and swagger than Michael. Not even Elvis.
he is the one and only..... I love him, loved him growing up and thinking how a man can be handsome and talented genius
The 80s was by far the best music and movies ever,,If you had a party or a school dance back then it was crazy how good the music was..Mj was an icon then and still now...
Funny story: I, like your parents, made sure my children grew up on MJ (I’m 48) When he passed away, my son called his girlfriend with the news and her response was “so”? My son is a HUGE MJ fan and they almost broke up over that LOL. Instead, he taught her everything she needed to know about MJ and they are married to this day ♥️
I love Dirty Dianna , still watching in 2024
Nobody will ever touch this man as far as talent. RIP MJ
To me this song is his best song ever
My favorite song by MJ ! 😊
Mine too
Michael Jackson and Prince were two excellent musical artists in own right. Both gave their greatness, passion, emotion, creativity for the world to enjoy forever!!
When we're talking about whos the biggest artist ever, it shouldn't even be a discussion. likes its done
You can like both but MJ was global. He was inspired by the groupies that went after his brother's (this song) When he died the internet had stopped sorry Farrah he had died and took away your admirers. Prince was a legend in his own right he was very musical and good performance s live. He seems shy he was smart to stay in Minneapolis.
@@nicolebailey4426 Hi Nicole, thanks for your reply. Greetings from Chicago, Il. U.S.A.
DON'T STOP 'TIL YOU GET ENOUGH-M.J.
🥳🥳🥳
Michael Jackson is the KING OF POP!👑👑👑🥰🥰
Sadly the first time I heard this song was the day after he died. They were playing nothing MJs music videos on tv and I was asleep with the TV on, and woke up to this song and was like broooo what song is this lol he was such a genius.
I never was a really huge Michael Jackson fan. Sure, I knew some his music and I liked some of it. But this?!? When this song dropped, I fell in love with it the first time I heard. And that almost never happens. This song ROCKS!!!!
MJ is the greatest entertainer in human history, period.
Sounds like a hair metal song. Michael loved some electric guitar! He loved that power rock sound!
this is FULL-STOP my favorite MJ song. such a kickass rock vibe.
This is an excellent song by MJ! Another great song by him is "Human Nature". Of course, anything by him is amazing!.
...and TOTO, too. 💖
Written by Steve Porcaro from Toto
The thing youll find about MJ is that all of his songs have a great video accompanying it. Many of his videos are groundbreaking.
I think Jordan noticed that there's much more to Michael than "Hee-hee". 🤔😄
I love this song and the way he performs it! Wow! It's always been a favorite. I always rock out to it like Amber did! 😁
