An icon. The most incredible talent. Someone who broke down racial barriers throughout the world. But, sadly someone who lived and died a very lonely man. The Michael at the end was not the Michael who did all of the above mentioned things. Michael lived and died much the same way as Elvis at the end. Ironic? Maybe, but we need to take a look at how we idolize these celebrities and make them prisoners of their own success. I loved the music, the talent, and even the man, but not the behavior and issues he was drowning in. RIP MJ.

Thanks so much for posting these. I had a good cry. He was such an amazing talent. Now he is gone. So those who choose to continue to judge and condemn him really should just let it be.

I was SHOCKED when I heard about Michael Jackson death yesterday! I believe he was a kind and gentle man who was miss represented and was taken advantage off because of his fame and fortune. I do believe his father is to blame. Do to his greed for cash, he pushed his kids especially Michael to perform. He defiantly missed his childhood! I hope where ever he is, he is the child he always wanted to be! RIP my friend!

hi annie. thanks for this. i’m not crying, not because i didn’t love micheal jackson or his talent, but because i am so sad. i knew this was inevitable but i never thought i would be alive to see this day really. death is such a sad thing…for all of us. i never had the oppertunity to see him live, ever, and all the records we have of him are my dad’s vynils he had when he and mike were groing up (they’re around the same age), so although i never personally knew micheal i definately grew up with his music, and his dancing, his production, just his talents in general. everywhere in the world everyone knows micheal jackson and now everyone will remember this day. although he was mired in a lot of bad he also brought a lot of good to many people. i don’t like to idolize people and put them on a pedastole but what i do realte to him about is his human-ness. RIP to him. i am happy that although i am not of his time i had to oppertunity to grow up with his talents. god bless him. he was just human like you and me, flawed and imperfect but lived life. we are all blessed to be alive. that’s what i will remember about today. in shock. seize the day. RIP to farrah, mcmahon, etc…i’m crying somewhere in my being.

In celebration of this life, it was heard today that Michael was one of the few people in our time that could go to any Country in the world and sell out any venue. Say what you will about him, his achievements and the love he had for the world will be missed. I can only hope to affect a micro fraction of those he affected. How do you have a funeral service for such a person as Michael? Closing down L.A. and inviting the world would be a start. This will be more than a National Service, as like it or not, Michael was a globally recognized person. For he touched hearts, probably even yours at one time or another. That is what I will remember him for.

Thanks for posting these Annie. Nothing but fond memories here of Mike. He is entertainer of all time. I remember watching the Thriller VHS in a crowded day room in a military barracks in early 1984. We were cheering. That video ran continously for hours. RIP Michael Jackson

I love the songs Beat It and Billie Jean, but one of my favorites by Michael Jackson is “Earth Song” http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xsocd_michael-jackson-earth-song-st_business

A light went out in the world today. I was getting a rare opportunity to know Michael Jackson up close and he was a gentle, kind man. Unfortunately, that new relationship was cut short and I am deeply saddened. His music will live on forever–it is timeless. Long live the King of Pop.
