Michael Jackson...thanks for the music.

So more sad news, with the death Michael Jackson.

Another major mega icon of pop along with John Lennon and Elvis Presley etc, who never made the trip to old age.

Whatever my thoughts about his strange ways in his later life...I enjoyed his impact on the music scene and his brilliant music videos.

Re: Michael Jackson...thanks for the music.
I heard about it just before midnight last night - when I put the radio on at bedtime.

I felt sorry, not only for his family and friends, also for those who had forked out sums of money for the concerts in London and were really looking forward to going.    Apparently, he was a really good live performer.

Re: Michael Jackson...thanks for the music.
That's pretty sad. The saddest bit is that the poor warped kid thought he had to cut himself about and bleach himself  when he had a good act, people in Europe and the USA already loved him and there are so many other AfroAmericans who are huge stars and proud of their ethnicity and their appearance. I wonder if the repeated stress on his metabolism caused the heart failure.

Re: Michael Jackson...thanks for the music.

Another point not mentioned enough was Michaels dance moves.

Along with Fred Astire, they both in their own era,  had a wonderful dancing ability. Happily both are captured on film for all to still enjoy.

Re: Michael Jackson...thanks for the music.
A couple of years ago the media was tearing him to bits......now it`s all what a great guy he really was, how sad. now they will be fighting for the film rights before the poor guy is cold, anything that supplies a quick buck ! Dek.
Laugh, and the wife laughs with you. Snore and you`ll sleep alone.

He was a victim of the success of his family. Allegedly a good singer and dancer. [I wouldn't know about stuff like that]. But effing around with his epidermis, and effing around with children... he lost the plot. Comparing him to Lennon, BTW, is tantamount to comparing Kevin Pietersen to Viv Richards. No comparison.

Will not be missed by moi. But in fairness, if I had pre-deceased him he would not have mourned me either!

Re: Michael Jackson...thanks for the music.

Bit unfair on his supposed failings, Buk.

Have you evidence of skin and sex failings ? Not tittle tattle or Sun reports, but evidence ?

I know less about the man than you do, but I do not like an attack on a dead man.


 

Hasta La Victoria Siempre !

Bemused

Court cases on the child abuse... and the evidence of my eyes on the skin issue. The latter quite harmless [except to himself], the former not harmless.

You cannot possibly know less about the man than I do.

attack on a dead man?! Perish the thought. Vlad the Impaler was misunderstood

I insist that I know less about him than either of you. So there.

I noticed that Wikipedia was brought to its knees by so many people trying to update the Jacko entry with conflicting clams about whether he was actually dead yet. You never got that problem with the Britannica!

Re: Michael Jackson...thanks for the music.
Passing the Hotel Norwich today, a banner heralded a Michael Jackson Tribute Night.

"That was quick" I said,
"Either opportune or prophetic" came the reply.

I wonder which.

But on the other hand, you don't get Wikipaedia salesmen knocking at your door just as you're about to sit down for dinner.
