KISS shuold have at least been in the top 3.
I am in agreement with a lot of the comments above, but have another act to add. Where the hell was Prince? Last year he staged a record 21 Night sold out run at London's O2 Arena, his Australian concerts in 92 sold out in 20 minutes (without online sales). He has been the ultimate live performer since 1978, yet somehow no mention.
OMG!! Last night's show was a disgrace!!! I'm very upset and I was totally peed off that MJ did not make no 1. How the hell does Queen & U2 get the top 2???? Something is seriously wrong with the country if they believe they deserve the top 2 spots, cause that is just crap!! If you go watch "this is it" you will see that MJ prepared a hell of a concert for his fans, and if he were still alive, it would've been an AMAZING show!!!! I would fly to London to see that!!! OVERALL - MJ deserved no. 1!!!
You know whats funny i asked 5 drunks in the pub after the the 20to1 show who do u think is the best entertainer u have ever seen in the last 50 years and they all said MICHAEL JACKSON AND U PEOPLE THAT PICKED QUEEN were sober so ***.Lads if u cant get it right give it up.
When Crowded house and Kylie (who I respect) make up the top 5 and NO KISS....I've lost respect for this show.....NOT ONLY should KISS have been in this, they should have easily topped it because th STARTED IT!!!
I totally forgot that 20 to 1 was on and missed it, if Michael Jackson wasnt No. 1 then who the hell was???? Honeslty, thats a complete mockery, i mean i liked 20 to 1, but sometimes they get it soooooooo wrong! Is it really true that Madonna was ranked higher than MJ?! That is like the biggest insult, Madonna has nothing on MJ, unless you appreciate an old tart flashing her privates to the world, she is soooo passed her expiry date. 20 to 1 have seriously *** me off, i really don't think i'm gonna keep watching it, i mean pay MJ the respect he deserves, without a doubt the greatest entertainer ever, as many of you agree!
michael jackson not number one? please. a fan or not, i think most will agree that no one could thrill an audience like michael jackson. no performer has such a legion of fans as MJ and his unrivaled live act is a big reason for that. very silly channel 9.
Just finished watching this and was absolutely staggered when the greatest live act of all didn't make it into yur top 20!!! Have none of you ever seen PINK FLOYD in their "the Wall" concert????? No disrespect to the acts that made it but come on!!!
how could Queen, U2 (who i have seen live and was very boring) and madonna beat Michael jackson? the greatest entertainer in the world. i would like to know who are the judges? what a load of rot we all know michael should have been number 1. also think burt has had more plastic surgery than michael jackson
Kiss should have been in the countdown over bands such as Coldplay, and performers like Kylie and Madonna. Kiss have one of the most, if not the most, bombastic live shows in history. They have ALOT of pyrotechnics, cannons that shoot approximately a tonne of confetti at the end of every show. On their 1998 'Psycho Circus' tour they were the first band EVER to use 3-D effects on a live show, something they did for the entire tour. Also on the same tour at their Bremen, Germany show, the fire marshall banned Kiss from using ANY pyrotechics during the show. At the end of the show they let off a whole shows worth of pyros in one hit. Kiss are now banned from playing in Bremen. I don't see how anyone could over-look Kiss as a great live act.
