Not in so many words, no, but you did say:

> The songs themselves are pretty “meh” to my ear. Jackson might as well be singing gibberish, as well (heck, I might like it _more_ if he was). I didn’t have any particular love for them then, and my feelings haven’t changed.

But, regardless…I don’t think you full-on “threadshit” there, but I do think (and it sounds like you might agree) your posts about “Jackson was successful due to intense marketing” was off-topic.
