Quite frankly your post and this 'poll/survey/vote', or whatever you want to call it, is nothing but an insult to the thousands of real musicians who have more talent in their little fingers than Justin Bieber could ever hope to have even if he lived for five thousand years.

Do you SERIOUSLY believe that Justin Bieber produces better music than Lennon and McCartney?

Do you SERIOUSLY believe that Justin Bieber produces better music than the Rolling Stones?

Do you SERIOUSLY believe that Justin Bieber produces better music than Freddie Mercury and Queen?

Do you SERIOUSLY believe that Justin Bieber produces better music than Springsteen and the E Street Band?

Do you SERIOUSLY believe that Justin Bieber produces better music than Jimi Hendrix?

Do you SERIOUSLY beleieve that Justin Bieber produces better music than BB King?

Do you SERIOUSLY believe that Justin Bieber produces better music than Glenn Miller and his Orchestra?

Do you SERIOUSLY believe that Justin Bieber produces better music than the Mowton greats of the sixties?

Do you SERIOUSLY believe that Justin Bieber produces better music than Nat King Cole?

The names I have quoted are just a few examples of artists whose music is timeless and will be enjoyed and remembered for years to come, whilst Bieber's so called 'music' is something that goes in one ear and out the other and is forgotten about after five minutes.

Do I need to go on?

Stop taking the piss!!!”

Absolutely totally agree

I am not a Queen fan so I don't mind someone saying that Bieber is better than them, even if it is b*ll*cks. Saying Bieber is better than BB King, however, now that really is sacrilege as far as I'm concerned!

Let's face it even saying that Bieber is better than Paul King is sacrilege.

I'm sure he would. I'll go listen to Justin while I feel remorseful

Didn't think this was a serious poll.

It is indeed. Give me "Love and Pride" over anything ever recorded by Justin Bieber any day of the week.

I'm afraid we'll never know since youtube wasn't around in the sixties, etc.........

I suppose using your logic we should all just accept that Gangnam Style is the greatest tune ever written then...........

3. Michael Jackson - Beat it
4. PSY- Gangnam Style

So, Love Yourself has had 779, 521, 812 views. Gangnam Style has had over 2.6 BILLION views, As Mr Spock might say, your logic is flawed, Captain............. . Seriously, PLEASE WILL YOU JUST GO AWAY and leave these boards to those of us who actually want to indulge in serious discussion.

Gangnam Style isn't one of the greatest songs ever It's a terrible song.

excellent post!

anybody who seriously thinks that beiber creature is 'the best' has some real problems with ignorance.

Otherwise, all this poll shows is the musical ignorance of the (presumably) very young participants.”

bloody snowflakes innit...

Justin Beiber is the greatest musician of all time every bit as much as Shola Amoebi is the greatest footballer of all time. We are fortunate indeed to live in the time of such genius.

People have a major problem with good-looking mainstream pop artists and are snobby about their work. That's why a lot of people have a problem with Justin adding the fact of his attitude/personal life. It has nothing to do with his actual work/songs. I also think age comes into it.

Yes, age does come into it as far as Bieber fans go. He's just the latest in a long line of bubble gum pop acts who are aimed squarely at the kiddy pop market. Every year 6 girl think she's going to marry him and then, by the time they hit about 15, they are embarrassed to admit they even knew any of his songs.

He's just the Donny Osmond of his day but his popularity is hyped due to the availability of the internet.
