I really felt sad for him. His life was so screwed from the start because of his child stardom and his father and I believe that was what turned him so wacky.

End of an era indeed...

He surely lived a gray life...





(He was born black and died white)





Anyway, RIP Michael!

MJ has clouded the death of FF over here and since MJ death all ive heard on the radio all day is MJ songs, talkback radio listeners are ringing up and expressing their sadness its gone crazy no doubt on the 6 oclock news tonight it will be about MJ!

Gotta give him credit his songs are kinda catchy beat it, Rock with you, Ben, Blame it on the boogie lol and many more has been on the radio today. Yes he was a bit of a werido with the wanting to change his skin color or was that a disease? Whatever, he wasn't your normal famous singer. As for the pedo accusations well he was proved innocent you could go as far as saying heres a guy that lives on his own with millions in the bank some parent comes along and accuses him for child abuse hoping to rake in the millions whether guilty or not the parents have got a winner here - when it comes to grabbing some easy money....

All i can say is come judgement day the truth will be told.

I feel more worried for the children, I'm sure there will be a fight over who gets them and any money that is left over.

Plenty of MJ jokes flying around.

Ah, cr*p.

Was listening to Jackson (Five) on the way to work. Sigh.

But you care enough to keep posting here?

Now there will never be a 'reconciliation' between MJ and the, mostly white, US media. Maybe this is for the best, now his legacy will live on in a very controversial way and continue to irk the racist whites.

I don't know much about him.
But to me it always seemed as if he was destroyed by his father's obsession for success. From what I heard the Jackson kids had to be successful or they got beaten by their father. I think he took his first mental cracks there. Then came all the success that sometimes has the tendency to drive people nuts. Maybe all his weird behaviour (for example buying [building?] the Neverland Ranch, being close to kids, changing his face) was just a reaction to not having had a childhood himself and wanting to be someone else. Whether he was a Pedo was never proven. The moment a star is accused of such a thing they have to do everything to end those accusations as quickly as possible or their career is over no matter whether they get convicted or an innocent verdict. The parents of those kids knew that they would have good chances of grabbing millions of dollars, don't forget that.

He definitely has had a major impact on the music of the 80's.

When the kids were alone with MJ on the ranch, MJ had good chances of grabbing some bollocks too, so dont forget that either.

At least now MJ can blow bubbles again, since they're both dead now.
