Prince is another one... never owned any of his stuff. I heard he's actually a Jehovah's Witness. They reported that his hips are actually pretty messed up and he should have surgeries but he refuses because of the whole blood transfusion thing. Is any of that true? If, so... that's just fookin' bonkers.

I've got Joe Jackson, Luscious Jackson and even Janet Jackson in my iTunes library (and some Prince,
for that matter), but no Michael. I owned one of his LPs back in the days of "Thriller", but none since
then.

400 songs in my iTunes. I have much more Prince songs.
Prince had MJ over to his house and they ended up playing ping pong - Prince was a little more competitive and MJ gave up. Would have liked to hear the two on some songs together - oh well.

Ø, Zilch, Nada, None!
I have mostly Blues, Folk, Bluegrass and Cajun/Zydeco. With many exceptions.
All the stuff that lead up to Rock and Roll, which is everything that came before!
I rest my case!

none
Pop music was overplayed (and easily found and listened to) on AM and FM radio.

I have a couple burned into my brain against my will from growing up listening to top 40 radio. Does that count?

None. Guess I'm too old to have ever appreciated him. A lot of it had to do with his freakiness.

I do have the Weird Al send-up of "Beat It" titled "Eat It". Does that count ?

Definitely none in iTunes. I was going to say I owned none; that I had more exposure than I needed from MTV and the radio. But after thinking about it, I'm not sure. I might have bought Thriller.
