I love Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley =D First of all I thought Elvis was inspired by gospel music and other African singers but combined the two to make his own unique music. As for Michael Jackson I thought he stole someone else's move to the moonwalk (I forgot the name of the guy who invented the moonwalk) but I never figured Elvis. From what I've heard Michael Jackson was inspired by musicians and dancers from the 40's and 50's like Fred Astaire for example.

Elvis broke the rules in his day and became great for it. Michael broke the rules in his day and became great for it. I see a pattern here.

@loreb4data I do agree with you there. Personally, I don't understand why people feel the need to compare the 2. They both brought different things to music, and they both brought so much joy and happiness to so many. I adore Elvis and I grew up watching Michael Jackson and I don't understand why people have to downgrade the other to think themselves a fan. The triumphs that each of them made should be celebrated, to say MJ stole dance moves from Elvis is degrading his memory and vice versa.

There is only one king of all music and that is Elvis,,as far as anyone stole moves -a body can only do so much moving and in 40 years many bodies move in some same ways -this looks like something I have seen - but they wear tu tus and slippers . Wish the blacks were never here. They claim kings of everything.How about kings that went home to Africa after they cried for so long and we miss them so. Please write.

@loreb4data MJ and Elvis are victims, MJ more than Elvis to be true, Elvis was called a racist and a theif through his life, MJ was called a pedophile, a freak, gay, monster you name it, and I don't believe he was none of those things but both Elvis and MJ died the same way, except MJ was skinny as fuck and Elvis was fat as fuck
elvis could barely dance

@hollywoodcourt21 He could dance like any of the choreographed dancers if the dance was choreographed (see Jail House Rock). Michael Jackson was just a choreographed dancer and not much of a singer. Timberlake, Beiber, Usher... all choreography. What makes Elvis special is that he actually sang Live and didn't lipsync on stage like Michael Jackson and so many so called entertainers of today do. Jackson is of the ilk that couldn't sing live.

I forgot to mention, do the MJ fans comment on even the videos of just Elvis's songs or do they comment on the Elvis Vs MJ videos? Because if they just comment on the EP vs MJ videos I can undertand because the MJ fans say he's better, then the Elvis fans kick off and then it becomes a war, soo your part of it as well, both of you are defending your icon, plus I don't think Elvis or MJ would like this.

@FuckdasketsHOPassass No. They troll Elvis (Just Elvis) videos. It wouldn't be as irritating if they didn't seek out Elvis videos to tell lies about him stealing music, but they do. I understand them commenting and arguing on MJ vs Elvis videos too. It's the ones that seek out 'just Elvis' videos that piss me off.

Lol I have to admit I do like trolling but what your doing is bringing yourself down to the level of the MJ fans you hate the most, plus that does not really count, that move has been around much before Elvis and he stole it other dancers, MJ, being he dancer that he is took credit from people who taught him how to dance and made the dance moves his own, plus Elvis wasn't a theif he was just a brand that got loads of people helping him, MJ didn't

@FuckdasketsHOPassass I think you're missing the point. Elvis was branded a thief, and yes, you're right... it was uncalled for. Most of those artists he supposedly stole from got back royalties after society changed it's mind, and Elvis helped or was instrumental in bringing about that change. But to continue to perpetuate those rumours in order to bring Elvis down to the level of their idol who may or may not have been a criminal in a more serious way, is wrong. EP was a victim of his era.
