"Seine 30 größten Hits", prangt auf der Compilation. Am 29. August feiert Michael Jackson seinen 50. Geburtstag - neben Madonna und vielleicht auch Prince der globale Star der 80er Jahre. Das ist keine Übertreibung, denn selbst deine Großeltern kennen Jackson.
Kapier ich irgendwie auch nicht. Klar, das Material wird jetzt zum 1000. Mal in eine "Best of"-Sammlung gesteckt, doch trotzdem ist die Musik an sich mehr als 2 Punkte wert.
Für Leute, die bisher noch nichts von ihm gekauft haben und eine ausgewählte Sammlung haben wollen, ist die CD sicherlich gut geeignet.
ich finde, dass man bei solchen Compilations gar keine Bewertung abgeben sollte. Wie meine Vorredner schon geschrieben haben, sind die Songs an sich immer noch top und als Klassiker zu bezeichnen. Andererseits wären die 2 Sterne für die Idee, eine tausendste Best-of-Platte von Jackson rauszubringen, durchaus gerechtfertigt.
Schlecht daran ist nur, das für eine Belanglosigkeit wie diese hier eine Plattenkritik erscheint. Zumal ein BILD-Projekt nun wirklich keine Unterstützung nötig hat.
Das ist nur die Wertung für die Blödheit der BILD-Leser. Da hat man schon mal die Möglichkeit, ein paar Raritäten aus den Katakomben auf digitalen Tronträger zu wählen und die Leute wählen trotzdem immer noch den alten Scheißdreck, den man mittlerweile auf Tonträger schon nachgeschmissen bekommt
Andererseits - die Dylan-Fans waren auch nicht viel klüger, wenn ich mir dieses "Dylan"-Paket in Erinnerung rufe ...
Speaks Exclusively to 'GMA' About His Past, His Future, His Dreams for His Children
By CHRIS CONNOLLY and MICHAEL S. JAMES
Aug. 28, 2008
He first became a star as a young boy, then endured superstardom, scandals and a legal prosecution, but as he turns 50, Michael Jackson told "Good Morning America" in an exclusive interview, he is "having a wonderful time, just relaxing."
Speaking by phone from his home in California, at times so softly he was barely audible, Jackson said he was listening to James Brown and preparing for his 50th birthday Friday, when he will "just have a little cake with my children and we'll probably watch some cartoons" -- before he gets right back to work.
Watch "Good Morning America" Friday at 7 a.m. ET for more on this exclusive interview.
Does turning 50 mean he now has an AARP card?
"Not that I know of!" Jackson said, laughing. "You never know. They can find you wherever you are."
He said he still can do all his famous dance moves and "more."
"I feel very wise and sage, but at the same time very young," he said.
Reflecting back, Jackson said the happiest time in his life was probably when he was recording his hit solo albums "Thriller," released in 1982, and "Off the Wall," released in 1979. Those albums -- which were accompanied by a string of hit singles and videos and corresponded with the 1983 debut of his signature dance, the "moonwalk" -- propelled him to the height of his stardom.
"That meant very much to me and seemed to be received so beautifully by the public and the world," he said. "I enjoyed it very much."
Asked to pick a single song as his greatest achievement, Jackson went back to the same period.
"Oh boy, that's a hard one," he said, before singling out "We Are the World," "Billie Jean" and "Thriller."
But Jackson was not content to rest on his laurels, saying, "I am still looking forward to doing a lot of great things."
He hopes to release new music and tour, though he doesn't have dates set.
"I am writing all the time," he said. "I love composing and the whole thing. But I am also raising my children and enjoying it and teaching them to ride bicycles and how to read. I love it."
He said he hopes to "be myself" in his future work, but also that he is "inspired by many great artists," noting he wished he could have worked with Brown or Fred Astaire.
He sees his influence in some of today's artists, specifically mentioning Chris Brown.
He said he sacrificed his childhood with "a lot of hard work," and that he remembers "giving up your life for the medium."
But he'd do it all again.
"I think I would," he said. "It is very much worth it. I have always loved show business and have always enjoyed making people happy through that medium. I love the celebration of music and dance and art. I just love it."
Asked if he'd like his two sons and daughter to have the same sort of upbringing as him, he said he'd prefer to let them "enjoy their childhood as much as possible."
"I let them go to the arcade and go to the movies and do things," he said. "I want them to get to do the kind of things I didn't get to do. So, I fill them with a lot of enjoyment that way -- a lot of amusement. You know?
"I get pretty emotional when I see them having a wonderful time," he added, "when they are on a ride and they are screaming and they are happy. ... It makes me emotional, 'cause I see they are having a real good time."
Jackson said his kids "love music ... they are very much into the arts," but that, "I don't push them."
If he could go back and give himself some advice at age 9 or 10, the approximate age of his oldest children, he would advise himself, "if you are going to do it, commit yourself, know your craft and be really involved." He'd say to be strong and to have "rhinoceros skin" when it comes to dealing with the pressures of fame.
Perhaps Jackson learned to have a thick skin after enduring years of controversies.
Born Aug. 29, 1958, in gritty Gary, Ind., Jackson rose to fame as the youngest member of the brother act, The Jackson 5. The group released its first single on the Motown label in 1969, when Jackson was 11 years old, and enjoyed a string of hits in the early 1970s.
The group eventually became known as The Jacksons, and Jackson also had hits as a child solo artist and actor.
Jackson's adult musical career took off with "Off the Wall," and eventually, he became such a superstar that he adopted the moniker, "the king of pop."
But Jackson also developed a reputation for eccentricity. He often was seen wearing a surgical mask in public, and his appearance changed and his skin complexion seemed to grow lighter through the years.
He had a pair of brief marriages, including one to Elvis Presley's daughter, Lisa Marie Presley.
In 2002, Jackson drew criticism for dangling his youngest son, Prince Michael II, then a toddler, from a German hotel balcony as fans looked on. He later apologized.
In 1993, Jackson was accused of molesting a 13-year-old boy who visited his "Neverland" ranch, but settled the case out of court.
Jackson was criminally charged with child molestation in 2003, but was acquitted in 2005.
Mhm man hätte die Gunst der Stunde nutzen können um einmal unbekannteres Material auf der CD zu beleuchten...denn da sind ja einige gute Sachen dabei. Nun ist diese Kritik genau so nichtig, wie der Sinn dieses "Albums".
...und im übrigen sieht SO die UK-Tracklist aus...hust* von wegen die gleich.
Billie Jean, Bad, Say Say Say (with Paul McCartney), Thriller, Ghost, Will You Be There, Heal The World, Smooth Criminal, Jam, Scream (with Janet Jackson), I Just Cant Stop Loving You (with Siedah Garrett), Black Or White, They Dont Care About Us, Come Together, We Are The World (Demo Version)
CD2
Dont Stop Til You Get Enough, Beat It, Dangerous, Dirty Diana, You Are Not Alone, Remember The Time, The Way You Make Me Feel, Man In The Mirror, Earth Song, Shes Out Of My Life, The Girl Is Mine (with Paul McCartney), You Rock My World, Blood On The Dance Floor, Wanna Be Starting Something, Billie Jean 2008 (feat. Kayne West), Thriller Megamix (Radio Edit)
Wirklich...das ist alles immer die selbe Scheisse , ein echter Jacko-Fan kennt auch einige unbekanntere Perlen auf den zahlreichen Alben die nie Erwähnung gefunden haben, und die hätte er gern dem Durchschnittsapi näher bringen können, aber eben kein Bild-Leser, der spuckt auf Dauer die erstbesten Drei Songs aus die er gerade noch so behalten konnte "Thriller, Bad und Beat it und den Rest hat er auf den Alben nachgeguckt
das sind alles Songs die auf Compilations bisher noch wenig Beachtung gefunden haben:
They Don't Care About Us Who Is It Speechless We've Had Enough Whatever Happens Liberian Girl Give In To Me Dangerous Scream You Rock My World Stranger In Moscow Got The Hots Thriller Megamix

Entweder sind die Tracks ausgelutscht oder scheiße... Ist ja auch toll...
meiner ansicht wird folgendes problem bei jackos mukke mit den jahren immer deutlicher:
zu recht hat er sich charismatisch als weltklasse-entertainer und -performer wohl einen halbgottähnlichen status verdient.
zu recht lobt man die damals hypermodernen wegweisenden produktionen
aber:
da er als performer und stiltrendsetter durch den ablauf von jahrzehnten den status nicht konservieren kann, setzt das material langsam patina an.
es fällt auf, dass die songs beim bloßen hören nicht eine songwriterische qualität haben, die so weit über dem durchschnitt liegt, das es beim legendenstatus bleiben kann.
übrig bleiben eine handvoll evergreens von mehreren 100 tracks.
in 100 jahren wird man wohl noch von dem begnadeten entertainer sprechen. seine musik wird es bis dahin nicht schaffen.

Da der so erfolgreiche wie leidgeprüfte …
und was ist daran jetzt schlecht?
