I appear to be the only one who went for Little Richard, I'm honoured

No one else compares to either.
Lots of people do, and Micheal certainly doesn't deserve the title King of Pop. Plenty of better people out there.

If you're posting in the music forums make sure to be thoughtful and expressive, if you're posting in the lounge ask yourself "is this something that adds to the conversation?" It's important to remember that a lot of people use each thread. You're probably not as funny or clever as you think, I know I'm not.

The Beatles blow both them away. Elvis was a vocalist of other people's music and Michael Jackson as a pop artist was not as influential as the Beatles. Bill Haley had the first rock and roll hit and Chuck Berry had a top ten hit before Elvis in 1955. I give it to Chuck Berry the original rock and roll songwriter/guitarist.
