  1. I didn't see a topic for this, so I'll just leave it here:

    Madonna, Jackson’s female counterpart for most of the ’80s, born on the same year and month as Jackson, seems to actually be invincible. She’s evolved like some Darwinian star child, and because of her resilience she’s much more impressive than Jackson, who crumbled early during his prime. Her ability to keep up with the times and continue to be a relevant artist, 30 years into her career, is astounding. Michael Jackson was completely done a decade in; Madonna just got started, a decade in. Her 30-year solo career is only rivaled by Elton John, Mariah Carey, and Paul McCartney (in terms of the living), and she’s even had more UK #1 singles than Jackson.

    I’ll be the first to admit that Madonna could never be as talented as Jackson–as both a singer and dancer–but Madonna is better, because Madonna’s influence reigns supreme on today’s artists, her impact on pop culture through film and fashion may never be topped, and Madonna changed the role of women in pop music. She gave women power, the ability to do more than just record dance hits, and brought about change in the industry that gave birth to every single pop star today.

  2. I remember for years it seemed like most fans absolutely loathed the version of LAP on TIC. That seems to have changed over the years, as evident by this thread.

    I wonder if TIC is the best selling album to ever utilize the Q-Sound technology.

    This is the only other title I can think of that utilizes Q-Sound:

    Immaculate Collection and Sonic CD are glorious pieces of early 90s, though.
