It is not ironic that someone who does not know me, never met me is happy to have cheap shots and judge me but heaven forbid I should do the same to someone else (aka MJ).

Sorry but I just couldn't understand what you said, so thought you must be on something being late on a Friday.
My apologies.

Oh you guys..

I think what we have seen today is a historic moment like the death of JFK or Martin Luther King or Elvis, no not over stating it, this is a historic moment.

I don't know Mr. B.
I'm going to say its bigger.
I remember the death of Princess Di, and the reaction in the UK - will be like that but on a bigger scale, global.

On another note - he co-wrote We Are the World with Lionel Ritchie.

 

[Cosgrove Fenton]

Hey Burnsie how about an "Excellent" so we can put it all behind us and go to bed??? Ps i'm out of grog....

If you're out of grog the worst thing I can do for you is keep you up for another hour but I won't.

Godnight Cosgrove and keep those troops moving

You're outnumbered Cossie time to call it a night.

They are legends no doubt - despite their quirks (and I dont make what ever they may have done post establishing their fame, any excuses). Farrah was a goddess, MJ was was awesome.
What really spins me, out is 3 in a day.
What is really going to give me the pip is the inevitable that MJ was seen in some remote hide-a-way sipping beers with Elvis (blah blah for the next 20 years)

Message received and understood, over and out.

Why is it historic? Because he died? Because he was in deep poo poo with his finances? The guy lost the plot years ago. Nothing historic or noteworthy about that,

1. He inspired people to help others and give to charities
2. He had great music which will live on forever
3. The proof is in the pudding that he had a big affect over a lot of people and clearly many do miss him and think he made a positive impact on the world.

Sorry folks Jeff Goldblum is ok now, he has survived the cretaceous too.. Bloody media I started to to believe everything I read, I am sooo gullible ... now back to thse analysts reports.

 

[Timmy]

I am sooo gullible ... now back to thse analysts reports.

[inenigma]

All the little boys in America will be safe now.

I just watched this clip again of Michael at the 1983 Motown 25th
Anniversary event and it's an unequivocal study of a musical genius in his prime.



Bruce Elder in the SMH today, makes an interesting observation that
Michael's overt sexual moves have virtually shaped the modern pop
performance.

I would hate to think that a gentle soul like MJ played any part in
shaping the shallow, mysogenistic, and violent tripe that seems to be the
primary expression of the African American music industry today.

RIP Michael and may the great R&B tradition of black music live again soon.

The music was amazing. So many hits but just absolutely excellent in everyway. Unfortunately, most won't be able to untangle than man from the media myths and fleet street hacks.

He said that he was truly himself and most comfortable on stage. That is what we should remember as the real michael Jackson

Rip in a media free heaven mj.

God protect your kids from the grubs that will inevitably become the story over the next few months and years.

Coroner just announced there is no indication of external trauma or foul play at this point. Cause of death has been postponed and is expected in 6 to 8 weeks. Body would be released at 6pm to midnight Friday Los Angeles time - mortuary makes release arrangements.
No Doctor signed death certificate meaning the coroner would become involved.

 

[Tink]

This pretty much sums him up..

Molly and I, two old men, reduced to tears

I agree Timmy, this will be bigger than Princess Di
