Oh I was young she was trying to protect me. Plus who wants to take a 7 or 8 year old to a concert and have him saying MA I want a drink, Ma I want something to eat, Ma I need to go to the bathroom, Ma I can't see anything! I understand But I will never let that go!!
Hahah OK :P I wanted to make sure you undrestood :P
Some? More like most. I pretty much hate all the new artists (Miley Cyrus, Lil Wayne, ETC). I like to think of myself as a Classic Rock kind of girl. Black Sabbath, The Cramps, The Mamas and The Papas (Blast from the Past!) , Credence Clearwater Rivial, The Gories, Alice Cooper, and Queen to name a few. :cool: As I already stated, Im not a MJ fan, but I do know what he has accomplished in the music business.Quote:

My fav song was heal the world a world that he had such an impact on. MJ you where the greatest, will miss you so much. But your life was not a tragedy, it was a great victory. The world that you sang about is a better place because of you.
Will love you always mj
The saddest part I found is that Amazon.com sold out of his albums in 25 minutes.
A bit too late to save him from his money troubles.
Hopefully it will go to his kids
Yes, I hope so.Quote:

Sadness.
To be honest I never understood celebrity worship.
There sure seems to be a lot of it around here this week!Quote:

I liked his stuff from the 70s, 80s. I'm 7 years his junior so songs like "Don't stop till you get enough," or "Billie Jean" really are markers of my adolescence. Between him and Farrah dying in the same day, it feels like part of my youth dying.Quote:

God bless Michael Jackson.

It was just also reported that Billy Mays, the king of infomercials, was found dead in his LA home.
... what is going on lately?!
If he did it out of the goodness of his heart I would agree with you but he was extremely well compensated for his contributions, more than you or I or anyone on this board will ever see in their entire lives.Quote:

In the meantime, I'm going to enjoy "Rock with you" on you tube. :)

Michael will always love you, no one really understood your inner turmoil, but the entire world mourns your passing. Listening to "black or white" now
The BET Awards show has been revamped to focus on Michael.
Like many celebs he surrounded himself with blook suckers who did not have his best interest in mind.Quote:

Check out the NY Post description of his condition at the time of his death:
Quote:
An autopsy on Michael Jackson revealed that the King of Pop's emaciated body was riddled with needle marks and scars, and his head was virtually bald, it was reported today.
Jackson's body had wasted away to a mere 112 pounds, and his stomach was completely empty except for partially dissolved pills, according to the London Sun.
His hips, thighs and shoulders were covered with needle wounds, believed to have come from shots of painkillers, and he was wearing a wig when he was found because his hair had been reduced to a "peach fuzz" on his scalp, the report said.
"He was skin and bone, his hair had fallen out, and he had been eating nothing but pills when he died," a source close to the singer's entourage told the paper.
"Injection marks all over his body and the disfigurement caused by years of plastic surgery show he'd been in terminal decline for some years."
There were four fresh injections around his heart, presumably from attempts to pump adrenaline into it to jumpstart it, the paper said.
Three of them had penetrated and damaged his heart wall, while a fourth struck his ribs, the paper reported.
He also sustained several broken ribs while authorities administered CPR during his final moments Thursday.
Jackson had one spot above his left ear that was scarred and completely bald - the apparent result of burns sustained when his hair caught fire while he was filming a Pepsi commercial in 1984.
He also had numerous other scars, apparently from plastic surgery.
In addition, he had mysterious bruises on his knees and shins and cuts on his back, possibly indicating a recent fall, the paper said.

It is amazing that one of the most watched people on the planet could get in that condition without the ever present MSM not knowing .There was some major covering up going on . Given his condition , how could he possibly gotten medical clearance to perform 50 concerts ?
What a terrible shame... and tragedy.
I can't believe he's gone. :(
RIP to the legend. May he moonwalk to heaven.
Its so unfortunate... I loved him and its so sad. He was a bad @$$ dancer and a kick @$$ singer:( its not fair, but death is up to god and not us:(
Up to god indeed
Yeah and god personally handed out his hand and told michael it was his time to go... but we will all miss him terribly:(
I had tickets to his concert... but that's not what upsets me the most... his poor young children... poor MIKE!. I know so many of you didn't like HIM as a man.. but I LOVED him as a man. I thought he was brilliant, a GREAT humanitarian that did nothing but strive to see the world become a better place which he only had turned around to make him look bad.. poor mike.. he didn't realize that he himself already made the world a much better place. May he rest in peace... meaning... may the media leave him alone after this and give him the respect he deserves.
Now its god's judgement for him, but we will all remember him and his music. He was the best entertainer since elvis presley, that's my opinion. He was a great guy and a lot of people didn't appreciate that, we all love michael♥
I loved him and still do he was such a bright, wonderful, shinning light in this cold cruel dark world, such a blessing and a gift to this world
Rip mj
I LOVED "Man in the Mirror." Such a relevant song.Quote:

I personally feel that peoples lifestyles and stresses of this world is literally killing people.Quote:

I totally believe that not having a real childhood had a negative effect on his life. That is why he had Neverland, why he entertained young kids. and why he had sleepovers. He was a child at heart. I felt sorry for him.
Cozy I agree he was cheated out of a childhood which is suppose to be the best years of our lives, he never got that so unfair, but in return he did create and leave a legacy that will last forever
I wish michael could have seen this... so many people didn't even realize they had respect for him until AFTER he died.. all my friends that picked on my for liking him... now all of a sudden they want me to burn them CDs... I wish michael knew how many people he actually DID impact... including the ones that never showed it. :(
I do too but he caused his own misery: dangling that kid, hanging out with minors in his bed, crazy plastic surgery, over-the-top shopping sprees. I certainly don't see him as a role model but I enjoyed his music.Quote:
