  It made me sad, too. Even if I was a bit young/not born when he was at his finest. Whatever a person thinks of his personal life or him as a person, it’s hard to deny that he had a HUGE impact on music (and dance) as we know it.

  Without going into too much detail, I don’t believe he was guilty of everything they layed on him, but that doesnt mean I would let my kids stay over at his ranch. He put more into entertainment than anyone ever has, and I think that its terribly sad but we will probably never see another entertainer as dedicated as he was. Thanks for coming by, again!

    *nods* I can agree with you on pretty much everything you said here in this comment. :]

  I know how much he meant to me growing up. Listening to Thriller, Billie Jean. I can even remember some of the Jackson 5 classics when I was just a toddler. Michael was larger than life. And the way he’s being covered now (some of it annoying) is proof.

  I’ll miss him. But his music shall never die.

    Very well spoken… It’s seems so surreal but we all must face the music someday.

  I grew up to his tunes, hell, I would watch his concert videos every single day during my summer holidays, and despite everything, I decide not to indulge in finger pointing and just believe that now he’s dead, let him be, and let God be the judge of his actions.

  he was one of a kind. Only one. Nobody can take his place. Someone might come close, never be like Mike. A moron calling a guy a sicko with no damn proof that he did anything sick-he has the issues. I grew up on MJ’S songs, videos and I’ll stil blare them to my speakers blow out. Rest in peace, Mike. It’s about time people leave you alone.

  I still didn’t get a response from Staples Center….

  My mom and I were discussing this the other day, about how different generations see him in different lights. My parents remember him as an entertainer, who produced some kick ass music. By the time I was old enough to be fully aware what was going on, he had turned weird. None the less, his music is still amazing, and will live on though generations.

  I wonder how this obituary would read if he had been convicted of child molestation.

  He was found innocent of child molestation. I believe that it is the parents fault. Michael was amazing, but creepy. Given the chance, my children would not be spending the night with him before his death. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Tried and true, if there was question about his actions with children, why did he have access to them? The parents fed their child to the dragon, if he was a pedophile. But again, the court system found him innocent.

  Yeah. Truly a music legend. I never understood him, but I will always enjoy his tunes.
