As the report that I have seen is not offical, I will wait to book my pilgramage to the Never Never Land Ranch (I still haven't made it to Graceland) it does seem as though he has passed away.

I was not so much a fan of his music or his bizarre behavior, I was in awe of his mental abilities - he had the amazingly talented Quincy Jones produce one of his best selling albums - "Billie Jean" had that signature "Q-sound" so did the next album, but Jackson produced that one himself - just one time working with Quincy and he had it down - that was his true talent.

Love ya,

Sally

Even if there were some things about his personal life I wasn't crazy about, his preforming and voice were legendary and incredible. And from such an early age, too!!

When I found out we had the same first and middle name (Michael Joseph) I was stunned too, I had no idea.

RIP to the King of Pop, hats off to you. I hope he is able to rest in peace, maybe there really is a Never-Neverland out there somewhere.

I remember when I was a kid (and so was Michael) having my AM transistor radio tuned to WLS Chicago and always waited to hear the Jackson Five with Michael Jackson belting the best songs an 10 year old could hear and identify with.

A B C, 1 2 3, Do re mi, baby you and me...

Gosh those were the days

I think that for our community losing the King of Pop is something that we will feel deeply.

While he never did anything to say that he was a part of our community, he certainly did have to put up with all of the same kind of treatment that we do.

He was an outcast even at the height of his musical career and popularity.

I always saw him as a tortured soul rather than a freak or a wierdo.

I hope that you now can truly Rest in Peace.

Good Bye Michael, I hope that you have finally found happiness and understaning.

Love ya,

Sally

I actually cried when I heard the official report.

I don't care what people say about him, and even if he did what they say he did, I'll always see him as a legend.

May he rest in peace, and may his legendary music and style live on.

while there may have been some .. er... questionable things to do with his personal life, there is no denying that he was a legend, a musical genius, a hell of a dancer and a human being just like the rest of us.

maybe now he's got some well deserved peace after all those years in the spotlight.

rip michael.

I remember beig a little kid and watching a michael jackson concert on tape during class. Everyone wanted to be like him. Then the stuff hit the thing and all my friends decided he was a freak and a bad musician. I was always a supporter, his music was great and he was a hero to me for his ability to stand through all the bad stuff in his childhood, through all the accusations and still perform. When I found out this morning I was at the store in a free period from school. I saw the headline and pretty much left wimpering. My friends couldn't care less which hurt me.

I hope right now he's somewhere with Jesus and Ghandi, re-enacting "Thriller". He'll be missed.

I don't know much about MJ. The main thing I remember about him is on one of the "Scary movies" number 4 I think? MJ randomly runs across the screen and steals a child.

Although I'm sure he was a good guy, and I hope he rests in peace.

I can't say I was a huge fan but I know that this has really upset a lot of people. This is my attempt at a tribute:

Michael Jackson knew a lot about "Human Nature". Some of his behavior could seem "Off The Wall" and at times he seemed to be a "Smooth Criminal" and made you want to "Scream". Take into account he didn't have the choice to live "In The Closet" and grew up with no "Privacy". He started at a young age "Working Day and Night". Maybe his excuse "I Can't Help It" got old but at least he didn't "Blame It On The Boogie". Some might consider his antics "Dangerous" and grew tired of giving him "One More Chance".

"Whatever Happens", you can't dispute his title as the King of Pop is "Unbreakable". He was a "Dancing Machine" who was always willing to "Rock With You".

"One Day In Your Life" you realize that you are not "Invincible". He comforted us by letting us know that "You Are Not Alone" and "I'll Be There" for you. He asked "Will You Be There"?, "Why You Wanna Trip On Me"?, and do you really "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'"? He let us know that Billie Jean" was not his lover but a "Pretty Young Thing". He told fans "You Rock My World" because of "The Way You Make Me Feel".

He taught us some important lessons like it doesn't matter if you're "Black Or White", "We Are The World", and we have the power to "Heal The World". He encouraged us "Don't Stop Til' You Get Enough". He taught us to "Never Say Goodbye". Years from now, people will ask "Remember The Time" when Michael Jackson died. Most will be able to say that he was an icon that was "Gone Too Soon". A lot of fans will be able to identify with saying "I Just Can't Stop Loving You".

A christian may believe that he is now able to "Ease Down The Road" to the Pearly Gates and be welcomed by angels doing his "Thriller" routine. Now he can rest in peace!

I know that this is a really "Bad" tribute! :P

That last post by me was a bit harsh. Sorry Joe Cool.

It really is impressive that you were able to incorperate all those song titles into a tribute. I will need to raise my game with the word play now.

Hah, Joe, that was pretty cool, actually.

I was definitely floored when my cousin's girlfriend got a text from my aunt saying Michael had died. We didn't believe it for the longest time until we finally had acces to a computer or a TV. So sudden, and young, too...

No matter what Michael may or may not have done in his life, the facts will never be known for sure after all, he was an influence to so many. He encouraged so many people into dancing, into music, and even if you just liked listening, he gave everyone a song to smile and belt along to if needed. From the very beginning he had a pretty rough and crazy ride of a life, and like everyone else has said, I'm hoping he's finally getting a chance to rest now. You kind of take people like Michael being alive for granted, and it's definitely a shock when they leave so suddenly. I really give his children my best, his family and friends too. RIP, man.

I enjoyed all the tribute music on the radio. My little sister has been watching him on youtube since last night, "Woah, he's a good dancer!" She's watching Thriller now. Great singer, amazing dancer.

      I wanted to create a thread about this   Eurodance act from sweden. very good. love his stuff   worth a listen if you never have

      Good afternoon,    I have a young friend who is vegetarian and married to a full on meat eater. They have two areas of their grill clearly designated for their different cooking requirements. When she’s cooking she uses tongs or chopsticks to handle any meats. When he’s cooking he respects her request not to cook her meals on the side where meat has been. They get along fine and respect each other.    When she attends our house, she usually brings her own food, but knows I will clean my grill to meet her requirements. We love and respect her commitment to be vegetarian. I love that she trusts me to make her comfortable when visiting us. There are ways to make it work.    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I was going to call it Numbness, then I realised well.. it isn't. basically, yeah, it isn't.   this only happens to me sometimes. I'll be lying down and my legs will.. well, I guess lock?   If I straighten them out, they will unlock- when I roll over again, they will lock again. this lasts for around 10/ 15 minutes I guess   it's not pins and needles either

    • atlantis63
      so, a close friend wants to cook for me   the issue is, she is a vegitarian and won't handle meat- I, on the other hand, won't handle vegetables- hate the things   every time she goes out to the shop, she comes back with something.. a cake, a fruit smoothie, a coffee, I won't eat any of it. please help me think of something that she could make for me that I'll actually eat   disclaimer: you are talking to the most pickiest eater in the world. good luck

      I think there is some truth in this.  They intend to implement Project 2025, whether or not he spends his energies persecuting the Democrats who have been persecuting him (in his view, a debatable point) and does nothing else.   I have seen numerous accusations that the document is about "Trumpism", whatever that is, and is merely a vehicle for him to become dictator.  From what I have read so far, that is the same sort of truth as the Steele Dossier, denying the validity of a certain laptop, Schiff's non-existence evidence of collaboration and a host of other things, many directly from Biden, that are simply not true.   I will continue reading it.

      Wife of mine pointed out that not getting a haircut for a month looks hideous - weird bald patches.  So back to super- short buzz cut.  This morning I braced, looking in the mirror.  I look like a woman trying to pass as a a guy, maybe  a small-breasted woman with enough T treatment to grow a mustache.    I would not believe me if I read what I write about me.  This is nuts.   White t-shirt: that they sell in the back of WM so you can tie-dye them or otherwise decorate them. They are thick and long lasting and slightly fitted, so that they could be a man's.  I like them.   Jeans, flip flops.   I will no longer point out these are women's.  What else would I wear?

      That is all that is necessary. I did the same thing. I must have gotten something wrong.

      Quite right mate! I have been letting my hair grow out again (I cut it all off when I was 18).    I'll never look this good:    But I'll aspire to look my best! ☺️
