Mr. hyde i pretty much stop reading your comment on the third fourth line when you wrote "Michael Jackson has a name recognition all over the world while Elvis Presley's fame pretty much ends at the US borders." because you pretty much don't know at all. I can show you crazy fans of elvis in Nepal.
And of course hitler cannot be termend famous. Thats why the poll his name wasn't there anywhere . He was mostly infamous.
Another flawed argument and question , OF ALL TIME ko sodhyo bhanera ahile jackson bha bhanera ufrine. To get proper answer of this question you should ask people of all time going back to thousands of years. Question chahi " of all time " bhanne ani opinioin chahi ahile bharkhar ko manche ko line. Make some poll after ten years and you will get completely different picture.
Don't you all guys know PROBABLITY. It depends on what you sample and where you sample. This is called conditional probablity. History ko yo point of time when he is dead jackson famous . Wait for ten years and do the same sampling it will be someone else. As I said You can't compare ERA'S .
If MJ is " king of pop" then Elvis is " King of rock and roll" . You guys born in eightees and ninetees don't know how big rock and roll was. Elvis has sold over a billion records. MJ is far far away behind by about 300-400 millions. Even behind beatles.

According to RIAA certifications from 1955 to 1996... The Top Albums (sales) that went GOLD or Better were: 1. Elvis Presley (80 albums) 2. Barbara Streisand (46 albums) 3. The Beatles (39 albums) 4. The Rolling Stones (38 albums) 5. Neil Diamond (37 albums) Michael Jackson was not in the top 14 ( Just compare 80 gold or platinum album with 14) The Top Pop Singles (sales) that went Gold and better were: 1. Elvis Presley (24 Gold & 28 Platinum) 2. The Beatles (18 Gold & 6 Platinum) 3. Whitney Houston (14 Gold & 6 Platinum) 4. Janet jackson (16 Gold & 3 Platinum) 5. Elton John (13 Gold & 6 Platinum) The KING of Rock and Roll - Elvis Presley...and I don't think ANYONE is going to surpass 80 ALBUMS that have gone a minimum of GOLD..Not the Beatles, Not Michael Jackson, |
