I was with you until your last line, “maybe you’ll teach him to moonwalk.” I’m obviously older than you, and I remember that JB did it first – he called it “the camel walk.” When it became MJ’s “moonwalk,” it was like the passing of a creative torch.

I’ve been a fan of his since age 11, when my mother bought me the Off the Wall album. Michael was my first crush. I was in love with him from age 11-up to my college years. Alot of things happened with him that I as an outsider will never understand, but even after I grew up and my big crush on him cooled somewhat, I still loved his music. Michael was truly one of a kind. There will NEVER be another performer of his caliber. There will never be another voice like his, and nobody could ever dance with his precision and smoothness. Once in a lifetime, God sends an extraordinary person with superhuman abilities to the earth, and Michael was that person for our generation. I got into an argument with a coworker back in the 90′s defending him against those bogus child molestation charges. He was flawed like the rest of us, but a genius nonethless. I will miss you Michael. May you find the peace in death that you never found in life.

He was a special person and he made great contributions to this world. There were many things in his life I didn’t agree with or liked, but I NEVER, NEVER thought of him as a child molester. I TRULY believe he was innocent and unfortunately was taking advantage of b/c of his wealth, generosity and fame. The manhad his faults but guess what SO DO WE!!! WHO ARE WE TO JUDGE!!!

Michael J. was timeless. He’s been in my ear for 39 years. So now radio and tv has began playing his music again. What? As a hard core fanatic, I listen to it everyday. If you stopped listening to him after History, too bad. You missed out because he poured out his soul in “Blood on the Dance Floor”. He even screamed out for help with his addiction. He raged about that modern day lynching of a trial.

In his later works, we behold Micheal Jackson, the Man. Not the little boy from the Jackson five, nor the young man from Thriller. He evolved and so did his music. Trouble is folks wanted to put him in a box. He complained about it constantly.
The world will never understand what it must have felt like to be Michael Jackson his fame, superseded anything that anyone has ever seen. Far beyond ordinary celebrity. Elvis was not a world-wide phenomena. Folks in China and Russia were not big on the Beatles. There is no comparison. There will never be another Michael.

I salute him. The quality of his work never diminished even with dealing with so many distractions and physical ailments. In the end it was too much for a mortal man to endure, many would have caved in eons ago. After the horrible Pepsi fire. His perseverance is a testimony that he was more than just an ordinary singer, celebrity, he was a warrior. He came, he saw, he conquered. When his enemies found out that they could not destroy him by slander and malicious attacks, they came for him and took him away from us.

I hope that they know that their day is coming. It is only a matter of time for they have released generational curses upon their families for 100 years. Michael Jackson was a powerful force who was more than music, song and dance.

For me, Michael was an extremely happy part of my childhood. Besides living in a white suburb. We just didn’t have many black folks in the media. He didn’t just spotlight himself when he was a little squirt. He brought everyone who ever influenced him into the spotlight. Ben was my favorite song when I was little…shoot, it made me wanna be his rat! I used to wish for a friend like Michael…and Janet. Remember how cute she was when she came out?
And then when he grew up and let us know what was in his heart. I know I wasn’t the only one to feel it.
And WHY do people think that his money and fame made him happy? It’s NOT fun to be run down by a screaming mob of fans and picked apart under a very powerful microscope by the media. I had a nibble…it was unsavory. I couldn’t imagine my whole life like that. I wonder if people will learn anything from this? Why are people so hungry for all that tabloid garbage? Read a biography or something…sheesh!

Micheal Joseph Jackson has been many name in his short life time. Many I believe were complete lies impressed upon fans and admirer’s by the media. I believe as people we must be careful who we put our mouth’s on. Because we hold life in death in the power of our tongue. It seems to me with all the speculations going around we take a moment. To pause and look at the real message of MJ’s look at the man in the mirror and make a change. YOu everyone is putting this man down it was obvious he had a skin condition. You don’t go from dark black to porcelin white. The man could not even stand out in the sun. And another thing that gets me how in the world could someone who donated so much to charities rape a child. Whose message was about healing and change could do something like that ? It doesn’t make any sense at all. BUt the real question now is wheather MJ was saved. I pray he made it in and think we need to start looking at ourselves.

I’ve been seeing a lot of people, on various blogs, complaining because they think that MJ’s death is getting too much media coverage. He’s only been gone for a little over a week, and these vile creatures are saying that the coverage is “bothering” them and “going on and on”. WTF?

Bindicated: I’ll always defend Mike. :) Some of the people on that forum were just pure scum. They kept telling me to “lighten up” and accused me of “taking things too seriously”. The mods basically came to the rescue of someone who is notorious for making racist comments (among other things). He practically gets away with murder on a daily basis, loves to verbally abuse anyone who disagrees with him, talks about how much he hates immigrants who are “draining the system” and talks bad about Latino women who get WIC (which is ironic, considering that this white man has openly admitted to applying for food stamps). The whole situation was just irksome. Talking bad about the dead just doesn’t sit well with me, and when the MJ bashers started their crap, I was determined to tell them off. It was worth the ban, even if I do feel I was treated unfairly.

The cynical world we exist in, I suspect contributed to a lot of insecurities Michael had. In Quincy Jones’ recent interview, even he couldn’t believe half of Michael said about his illnesses and physical ailments, but it’s hard for me to believe *anyone* could do well in all the accolades lauded on Michael.

He had extreme talent, he had extreme love and compassion, he had extreme song-writing/production capabilities, a very istute student of audio productions.

His desire/struggle to regain not what he wanted, but what he thought the world wanted to see in him, eventually caved in on him. Like Elvis and others before him, he will be remembered forever.

If he would have learned more from folks like Paul McCartney on how to survive the ineveitable rough times, Michael would be touring now..

Perhaps now, his legacy will go unchallenged and finally inspire others to strike out and go their own route as well in this homogenous industry.
