I feel really bad for Madonna here... she is being pictured as a poor talent with all the posts made in this battle! Something I strongly disagree with... so I'm not going to sit this one out like I always try to do, but actually vote this time and it's for Madonna!!!
And for those that might have started to think... it's definitely not a pity vote as she has prooved to be a huge chameleon of an artist, ever evolving throughout the decades she has been performing already! Which artist can present such an amazing and extended resumay of hits and albums with worldwide sales?
Granted... Michael Jackson can too, but she should never be forgotten or painted black in my humble opinion! There.... =)

@ Armormasterthenew : That's a poor attempt on reasoning there, so please elaborate or your vote will not be counted, sorry! ;)

With my personal vote counted the score shows us :
______________________________________

9 - Michael Jackson 'King of POP'
-VS-
1 - Madonna 'Queen of POP'
______________________________________

That's probably the last in between score count for this battle as Michael Jackson is clearly defeating Madonna and making a run for the win... so the next person voting for MJ will decide Madonna's faith and close the battle! =0

Let's see who will have the final (ela-bo-rated) vote in this battle before we move on to the next! Post those votes people!! VOTE!!! =D

I guess this battle has had it's due running time... Michael Jackson has snatched the title from Madonna as the true "King of POP" and leaves her in his wake! =)

The final score count shows it all :
___________________________________________

10 - Michael Jackson 'King of POP' - WINNER!!
-VS-
1 - Madonna 'Queen of POP' - Runner up...
___________________________________________

The in between given Aerosmith vote for the first battle ever posted was worth a good laugh! I think Ernie said it all! LOL =P

Well... on with the show it is! Time to do a little experimental battle in between... ;)

### The Motown Divisions Battle!!! ###

This new battle is going to be a little more tricky in a matter of choice as this is a battle between artists who were signed to different sub-division record labels that were either a part of or -later on- merged with the world famous Motown record company!

To elaborate on the battle a little... there will be 3 sub-divisions featured in this battle, each with 3 example artists :

# Motown Records (Est. 1960)
- Diana Ross & The Supremes - You Can't Hurry Love
- The Four Tops - Reach Out, I'll Be There
- The Jackson 5 - I Want You Back

# Gordy Records (Est. 1962)
- The Temptations - My Girl
- The Contours - Do You Love Me
- Rick James - Super Freak

So, it's your choice to pick the one sub-division label that has your preference in this battle! So do NOT vote for a single artist, but for a complete label! All clear? Allright...

On your Motown... err... marks! Get set... VOTE!!! =D

I know guys... I know... *sighs* =/

It's just a battle idea that came to mind when I checked the thread and saw that the 'Battle Royale' was done for... it's just a whimm, that's all! Let's stick with it for a while and HOPE freakenstein will change the thread's title... please? =)

And ilberic... stop whining will ya? You'll get yours, don't worry! ;)
