Its funny i forgot about Ed...i was thinking maybe Liza or Liz Taylor must be a tad nervous right about now. Michael Jackson was a stunner. We just heard it on the news here at 6 on channel 5 in Boston.

Maybe now--

his spirit will have some peace, and I hope, in time, his legacy will be more about the music.

I just heard about it. Sad

Hopefully, Jackson's children can now be raised by a sane person.

Michael Jackson sure knew how to weave a great pop song. And he pioneered the pop video as a movie form.

The only black kid I knew who grew up to be a white woman.

> he pioneered the pop video as a movie form.

That accolade belongs to the Beatles (A Hard Day's Night, Help!, Yellow Submarine). Jackson's Thriller was the first extended length song video.

Speaking of the Beatles, did Jackson still have publishing rights to the Lennon/McCartney catalog? If so, I wonder what's going to happen to it.

 

[whirlcool]

I was thinking more in the lines of MTV airplay.

God bless America. (That's for you PeteK!) LOL

Where else can a poor black boy grow up to be a rich white woman?

I he didnt have the self-loathing for his race and his sexuality he'd have been HUGE(er)

Many say he snapped when his father was shctooping women on tour and he was caught (as a young child) between alliance to his mother and his father.

Maybe now this tormented soul can find peace.

i thought the world of Mike, even my 70 year old mom said, " i don't believe that about Mike", during the scandal. Rest in Peace Mike. alr2903

Jackson was rehearsing for a 50-show tour this summer, and I bet the stress killed him. Imagine being 50 years old and expected to perform with the same energy as when you were 20.

RIP

I'm honestly shocked.

Let's remember the talent and the wonderful music and forget about the weird bad stuff.

 

[jeffg]

Oh it'll be a field month for Jackson's critics.

Personally I'll remember him as one of five brothers, the most talented member of a rather talented family.
