No.

Thriller is the Citizen Kane of music videos

His acting really sells the whole thing. Most musicians wouldn't be able to pull that off

Justin Timberlake could probably do it.

Nobody has cared about music videos for 10 years. If people still watched them, then absolutely.

No, singers today have little talent. It's all done thru electronics. Forget dancing.

10 years ago, Usher could've done it. Not sure about now though. Plus herpes

No, I don't think so.

Bruno Mars is really the only possibility that I can think of, and he's great, but not nearly as big a deal as MJ was in the 80s.

It was a different time. I was a youngster but remember the hype. It was huge.

That silly arse Gangnam Style video has generated about $10 mill in YouTube revenues.

There is nobody alive that could pull something like that off. Bruno Mars and Timberlake may be at the top of today's performers, but that doesn't mean they are in the same universe as Michael Jackson. As fricked up as that guy was there has never been another entertainer in history that was on that level.
