Michael Jackson dead

But he didn't cure cancer, find the answer to sudden infant death syndrome, complete the mapping of the human genome, or indeed do anything which made a mark on the human race.

Agree, i thought my surgeon deserved rock star status after doing his successful bit of knife work on me, but alas although good with knives he had the personality of a door knob, it would not be good world viewing.

Ive been tuning into the national station and you do get some insight into people doing some amazing stuff quietly around the world to do with what you mention above, there are some very clever people about.
But it still not stuff that makes you bodgey around the room like to a good musical tune ...unfortunately.

Maybe he just decided to stop when he'd had enough.

Breaking NEWS: Gary Glitter has won the auction for Michael Jackson's PC.

however the commedians amongst us and the cell phone companies have had a bonanza circulating jokes about his demise

Do not forget the Catholic Priests. They are quite happy that percentages have increased in their favour...

[Big Dave]

They were right.

I’ve held my tongue long enough. I can’t do it anymore. It sickens me to find out that the world loves Michael Jackson.

I find it to be one of the most disturbing revelations ever. This guy was a psychotic nutcase. And the only reason he was able to keep custody of his kids after dangling his own infant off a 4th story balcony in front of the whole world was his money!


And the music? I find this synthesized pop sound that this talentless hack started to be the most soulless thing that has ever come down the pike! It sucked when he did it and it sucks when Britney does it. And what’s this ‘four decades’ crap??? His solo career was successful for a brief period during the 1980s. Period! The only reason he got back in the news during the 90’s was because he was accused of molesting a child and then wound up marrying Elvis’s daughter. And why would a man pay 23 million dollars to a family that publicly accused him of molesting their child?


This is your hero??? Who else is on your list, Count Dracula?


For the last 20 years of his life the guy looked like Count Dracula. He impressed me twice musically. The song “ABC,” which he didn’t write and the song “Beat It,” which doesn’t count because the only thing I liked about it was the solo done by Eddie Van Halen! Everything else in his catalogue was drivel. And the comparisons to Elvis and Sinatra and the Beatles? Puh-lease! Don’t even make me vomit.


He broke down barriers for blacks? I think Louis Jordan must be spinning in his grave right now. There’s a black artist who actually broke down some real barriers. That man’s music has even influenced the rap music of today!

Michael Jackson??? Gimme a break! 13 Grammys. Folks, I’ve watched the Grammy awards shows, and the more grammys a pop artist from the last 30 years has the more they suck! You’re actually gonna compare anything Jackson did to the song, “One More For The Road?” Or any album he ever did to “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band?” I’d rather listen to the soundtrack of the movie “Kissin Cousins” than to anything Michael Jackson ever did. And that’s considered one of Elvis’s worst films!

Sorry folks, I don’t fall in line when the sheep are expected to. As a lover of good music and Rock ‘N’ Roll I can’t get behind praising the talentless dork who helped killed Rock ‘N’ Roll. Would somebody please get Michelle Obama drunk and set her up with a male hooker so that our news stations will stop talking about Michael HACKson!



There I said it. I feel better.


Oh, I forgot to mention, he was an okay dancer.

Elvis might have left the building but rumour is that Jackson has taken up residence.

He is in Vegas with Elvis and Salmon Rushdie.

I'm not a Jackson fan - apart from Joe Jackson - but the weird one did make important contributions in a number of arts.

Not our field of interest hey Sarge but his influence on dance is the greatest of anyone who ever lived.

A shame he didn't retire at 25.

but MJ was born a cartoon character ..

damn shame when the Eagles, Stones, Aerosmith ET AL turn a brilliant career into a cartoon

How does that definition of celebrity go?

Someone who is a whore to the spotlight until they attract it.
Then they wear dark glasses and complain to avoid it.

Errr...Ummm so parents who drive drunk with there kids in the car or participate in dangerous driving with kids in the car should not be able to have custody of there kids either, I reckon dangling your kid over a balcony is pretty tame in comparsion to what some parents deem as okay.

And be handed over to someone who's lost their child in a drink drive accident
