I'm getting fucking pissed over some of the assholes disrespecting his death. He was a legend and will be missed, show respect.

I think it sucks because he died, and he was just about to start a Tour! _________________

^^^^Exactly.
He had a million people waiting to see him again in the O2 arena, he was going to play 50 sold out shows. Completely unexpected. |

This is such a sad story. It was so random and unexpected. I'm also sick of all the pedophile comments I've read online. HE WAS NOT GUILTY. Also, MTV is showing his music videos again this morning. |

Seriously, I was in an xbox live party, I told everyone, and I just left. I came back to like 10 party invites and messages of people saying terrible things. Fuck 'em. _________________

I'm completely gutted, at the very least musically Michael Jackson was a hero of mine growing up. I love his music completely and was gutted when I couldn't get a ticket for his live tour. RIP Michael _________________

To my knowledge, he was never actually convicted of any wrongdoing, it was all just assumed. If this was Janet Jackson doing this with kids, inviting them over for sleepovers, holding hands with them, it would be seen as Janet Jackson being down to earth in spite of being a celebrity, showing just how much she wants to be a kid again.
It's not "guilty until proven innocent". And I'm going to bet that he was addicted to drugs because of the stress of being one of the biggest names of all time in the music world and the fact that everywhere he turned, he was being called a pedophile and a child molester. _________________

I don't understand why a bunch of assholes are celebrating. Death isn't the time to judge someone for what they supposedly did or didn't do. It is a tine to reflect on the good that the person has done and celebrate what he/her did. I mean, so what if he was guilty for the charges against him? It's over now and there is really nothing left but to look upon him being an amazing musician. |

Thriller is one of the only songs I feel like singing along to whenever I hear it.
He was a musical genius, and was incredibly influential, whether you like it or not.
Also, stop fucking judjong a man who died yesterday.
Sure, in a few months, everybody will be thinking about it, but if, say, you were accused of a crime, when you died, would you be pissed if somehow you knew people were critisizing you less than 24 HOURS AFTER YOU FUCKING DIED?
Name an incredibly popular popstar who didn't do drugs, and was in the late 70's to early 80's. Nobody thinks of Elvis as a drug addicted psycho. Just because two unproven cases of child abuse came about, doesn't mean "LOL PAEDOPHILE WANTS CHILDREN TO PLAY WITH HIS PLASTIC"
And yeah, I'll go so far as to say someone will make a rumour that he is alive. The mainstream media will blow it way out of proportion, and everyone will hate MJ again
R.I.P. They "Guy who was not like other guys"
And also, although I had never heard of Fawcett until sxephil's vid, I have to say RIP to her too _________________

now hang on, there wasn't really enough evidence for him to be considered a pedophile. but people have there opinions so if that's your opinion then
so be it.
back on topic, this really got me off guard, he looked fine the last time i heard about him but i guess things can change in a matter of months. and by the fact he was supposed to make a comeback was more a reason to mourn. didn't the estimated ticket purchases for his tour end up to over 400 million $ or something like that? Either way he will be dearly missed by people from around the globe. RIP MJ _________________

Sixty-seven in sixty-eight don't own it, that's how.
Respect to the man, he did a lot for music.
Also, I've seen the sum total of one joke so far that wasn't based on the crimes he was found not guilty of having committed. Get some imagination, people. |

This is extremely sad, but what is even sadder is how many people are joking about this. You don't joke or be happy when somebody dies. No matter what they were accused and found innocent of doing.
Shame on anybody who joked about this. _________________

Some stats on Itunes:
Top 10 songs: 6 of 10 songs are Michael Jackson
Top 10 albums: 9 of 10
Top 10 videos: 9 of 10
It is of my opinion that MJ was the best entertainer in music. His music, videos, and dancing revolutionized music and influenced an amazing amount of artists of today.
MJ FREE 3-pack please:
Wanna be Startin' Somethin'
Dirty Diana
Black or White WITH INTRO IN THE VIDEO
Anyway, he has always been one of my favorite artists of all time and always will be.

An Unopened Thriller LP are going for 500 easy on EBAY. I have 2 opened Thriller LPs. Both on Ebay as we speak. Most Opened Thriller LPs are going for between 70-120 it seems. |
