People mishear lyrics anyway and just remember bits of them more just because they are connected to the best hooks, normally in the chorus. And people hum melodies a lot too if they don't remember the lyrics.

Not sure if the Bee Gees kept writing good songs after the 1985. I don't know any at least.

truth be told, I don't listen to the Bee Gees much outside of the 70s

Paul MacCartney is a pioneer of music. He is someone who made some great valuable songs. He is someone who is a genius but he is not a king of pop. I can assure you that. Michael Jackson was a great dancer and singer but Paul has a great voice. Paul has had been able to maintain a good responsible career. I enjoy Paul. But Paul is not the king of pop at all.

Don't worry about the thread title, it was just a way to question why people always call Michael Jackson the King of Pop. I think people define pop way too narrowly nowadays anyway.

I have little interest in labels like "king of pop", which is just marketing hype. However, if it ever applied to McCartney, it certainly does not now. I stopped being interested in him after Venus and Mars.

If sales is the criterion, then Michael Jackson would claim the title.
