It stinks for those who loved him, as I believe he was loved all over the world.

Give it a few weeks. A lot of crap is gonna hit the fan. I dunno how much of it is gonna be true though.

You know there will be a million books, not to mention all the whack job conspiracy theories. Someone probably starting inking a book deal the second they heard the news. We'll be hearing that he's still alive for the next 50 years and that he faked his own death a la Elvis.

I will probably feel more sadden when Patrick Swayze goes. I did like a few of MJ's songs but just the thought that some of the things he was accused of might be true makes it hard for me to feel too awfully sad. I still like to give people the benefit of a doubt though.

That's the funny thing about life. You never know when your time is up. Just sad news, RIP MJ, while you may have came off a little weird, you were a musical icon and will be missed.

Re: Michael Jackson has passed away

I can understand it man. I mean his music was a part of you. Like I said who here, if of age, hasn't done a moon walk, or went to school and tried the one glove thing, or didn't have or know somebody and borrow the "red jacket". You don't do those kind of things or have that kind of attachment with just any recording artists. There's singers and dancer and good performers, there are great performers, there are elite performers and then there's Michael Jackson.

Its funny how people are passing condolences and taking shots at him also. Come on guys have some respect.

I love Michael Jackson, his music was definitely a part of my life. 80's kids didn't appreciate his journey. Just like most 70's kids didnt appreciate Jimi Hendrix.

I mean, the man had people around the world wanting to dress like him, HEAD TO TOE!! DAILY!!!

Re: Michael Jackson has passed away

I remember when Elvis died. This day is turning out nearly the same way. Both beyond their prime but still recognized as "kings".

Absolutely stunning.

I remember that day as well. I recall The Jackson 5 and the Osmond Brothers competing for the top of the charts. The two most talented in either group was Donny Osmond and MJ.

Loved his song, Ben, when I was in 6th grade.

It doesn't matter if MJ hasn't had a hit in awhile, it's the lasting impression he gave as an entertainer/musician in his lifetime.

Heck, are people going to say when Jimmy Page dies, aww heck, not much of an inpact, he hasn't had a hit in a decade.

I remember dressing like Zombie Mike for Halloween. Dancing like Mike whenever 1 of his songs hit the radio, or when I played 1 of his albums..

That's one thing that amazed me. At the height of MJ's fame you had teenage girls literally crying over him and trying to rip off his clothes like he was Christ in the flesh. Not even Sinatra in his Bobby Soxer phase had that kind of popularity.

I know this might come off funny (it's not meant to) but I seriously worry for some of his long time fans who might be so grief stricken that they'll kill themselves tonight.
