RIP Michael

I suppose the real question is, will they bury him, cremate him or recycle him?.....

Rachel16 · 06-25-2009, 05:30 PM

Ooooh. I just heard the news too. So sad. I really respected him as an artist, brilliant.

Saw it on yahoo, he was a good singer. RIP.
Anyone else have a strong feeling that this will somehow make Michael Jackson's music popular again? I haven't check the iTunes store in a bit, but I just went on to see if anything from his is on the top and his album "Thriller" is on iTunes Top Ten Albums.

Now I'm pissed, I just spent 20 minutes looking for a vinyl Thriller or Off the Wall and it's missing!

digital audio is not the same.

when I was a kid I always tried to mimic MJ, I really loved his song : Black & White
but after I grew up a bit a gave up on listening to him and since then I listen to Trance and progressive
but we can't deny that he was an icon in pop music, whatever he did, or people thought he did

OMG!

I am sick of the over coverage by the media.
My alternative station was playing a Jacko song. Sportscenter led with it. Grr! Enough already.

He was famous before all the scandal took place. Ironic isn't it, he is more famous now that he is dead. When he is alive, everybody tried to sue him, when he is dead everybody tried to get his songs

It was the taboo affixed to him that made that way. Now that he's dead it's easier to look at him pre 1995.

The Rev. Jesse Jackson says Michael Jackson's family wants an independent autopsy following the pop star's sudden death at age 50.

Was going to put it into another thread, but I'd figure it would fit here best

**Drew1369** · 06-27-2009, 08:10 PM

And no one even remembers Farrah Fawcett anymore :(

Chevy · 06-28-2009, 04:46 PM

No sorrow here ... Maybe now the child molester will get his due ....

**WereBo** · 06-28-2009, 06:32 PM

When Farah Fawcett arrived in heaven, God told her she could have one wish - She wished all children on earth would be safe, so God killed Michael Jackson
