a classic but I think the Juan Gabriel one retains the belt for me - it helps if you're a fan of his music & know his character but really this is 17 seconds of tragicomic narrative here

ex-girlfriend of mine to whom absolutely nothing was funnier than people hurting themselves accidentally, hadn't spoken with her since '93-ish, looked me up in 2005 or 2006 - talkin about this and that - and I'm like "I thought of you when Juan Gabriel fell on his ass a while back" and she was like "it was the greatest moment of my life, and the tv stations around here kept showing it over & over & over again and it kept getting funnier"

Amy Winehouse fall #1 is notable not for the fall, but for how the backup singer doesn't seem to know what key he's in until the end of his solo:

We have largely veered off target. We need falling musicians, people, not just any ol' fools.
Anyway, the James Brown/MJ/Prince thing, man - it's the stuff of legend. The rumor has it that Prince was ... drunk? Seems out of character. Anyway, the rumor has it that Prince and MJ were feuding, and MJ knew Prince was out of sorts, so that when JB called him up he took the opportunity to pull the rug out from under Prince. But who knows.
