Music Michael Jackson is Dead (All general comment)

Unlucky, you tried to delete it for the sake of? Exactly, useless comment, which seems to be the general term with 95% of the people who are coming out of the bushes to diss us who are mourning the death of Michael Jackson.

And for the record, i've lost friends, family, and a grandfather, as well as has a turbulant and mostly fatherless childhood because of their devotion to represent our nation overseas in conflict... so shall we dig deeper or are you done trying to get my life story?

Edit: Ole_Gunnar said this by the way, ironic he's talking about contrasting of deaths
Exactly. And for your friend that died not so long ago, where was his 16 page long thread? Good people die all the time and you people are mourning this man and buying tickets to his concert when it's quite clear what he was. And for those arguing about the state of his mind; no peadophile is in the right state of mind, every peadophile suffered abuse, it's the cycle of abuse but it doesn't make it any less sickening or any less wrong.

And the really annoying this is black people and Michael Jackson. This man changed his skin colour. This man has white children. This man invited only white children to his house. He gave money to his family but apart from that had nothing to do with them. This man did everything humanly possible to seperate himself from black people although our money was good enough for him. And yet you by his 'one-last-tour' tickets and you will mourn his death to a greater extent than Presley. It's really is that stupid.
 
To the people old enough to remember Elvis' death (not the caf one), what was the fallout like from that? Do you think Jackson's will be bigger? Or even already has started to be?

My nanny (grandmother) said the way the media is, this was much quicker and bigger... the quote she said told it all:

"Elvis' death took a day to get around the world, Michael Jackson's death took an hour"
 
Anderson Searl is one of those people who lost many loved ones who paid the greatest price for the most honourable deed, but it's this man who will have the thousands of morons grieving him and lining the streets at his funeral. It's enough to drive you crazy.

Ooooh mate :(

I think you should take your tainted glasses off and look at exactly what Jackson achieved both in the US and worldwide.

He was a phenomenon. There was no-one like him before and there's unlikely to be anyone like him again.
 
He had sold 50% to Sony/ATV Music Publishing. The Mirror published an article in January that stated that Michael Jackson had left the Beatles catalog to Paul McCartney in his will.

Classy as feck by Michael if true, was sad that their great friendship was ruined by what transpired. Surely Paul should take his hat off to Michael for it.

For what?..Taking all the royalties to his songs for 20 odd years even though both were already incredibly rich and only relinquishing them once he'd passed away...Yeah, a truly wonderful gesture
 
I just can't take what you say seriously.

Am I saying anything wrong though? Look around the web, hundreds of millions of people, if not billions of people, are mourning his death and are both shocked and saddened.

Suffice to say, there's not many people in the world who would have such an effect if they died.

If he gave them to you I am quite sure that you would find it a wonderful gesture, but then again you are mockney revil

Paul McCartney gets on my nerves so much that this gesture kinda makes me dislike Jackson.
 
His body is in a helicopter that they are filming right now.
 
Live pictures of his body being taking into the ambulance in the body bag being shown.
 
yep

Beeb: Star's body being flown by helicopter to the LA coroner's office
 
"People will discuss the negative, as that's the nature of man. Yes, the idiosyncrasies did overshadow his contributions during the latter portion of his life. Yes, the allegations were a dark cloud that eventually led his withdrawal from the public scrutiny.

Posthumously, it's more important to focus on the positive. MJ was an artist who's music spanned generations & genres, cultural & ethical boundaries. He was the global star of our time, an icon. At the pinnacle of his fame, there weren't many anywhere who didn't know his name. 13 number one hits & many more songs that are left etched in our collective memories.

I like to think that my dad's generation had James Brown to transcend all conceivable barriers through music & dance. Our generation had Michael Joseph Jackson."

Sorry AS, but Elvis totally shat all over James Brown, although I would say James Brown was kind of a bit of a prelude to Michael Jackson although not on that level.
 
Most brilliant entertainer of our generation, RIP


I remember his Pepsi commercials during the height of his fame, he truly was the king of pop
 
I was texted "You wont believe who died: MJ :/" so i spent the last 4 hours thinking that Michael Jordan, my childhood hero, had died.

Now i feel bad for feeling relieved that it was Jackson who died.
