It really shocked me a lot when I got the news that MJ passed away. I would say that he called an end to an era, the era of “the King of Pop”. It seems that all the fans and about-to-be fans were in grief, especially the ones who were expecting to attend his tour in London. But now this king was gone.

http://new.music.yahoo.com/michael-jackson/albums/bad--21275361) BAD is my favorite since he grew out of his Childness and had Attitude then. It is the seventh studio album by MJ which was released on August 1, 1987 by Epic/CBS Records. 20 years after its release, the album has sold over 30 million copies worldwide. Bad is the first, and currently only, album ever to feature five Billboard Hot 100 #1 singles. There’s no doubt that he was a talent and king in the pop world. On my iPod, this song is always there and never changes. The quality’s so wonderful since I (

The Bad TourInline Image:
http://d.yimg.com/ec/image/v1/release/21275361;encoding=jpg;size=300;fallback=defaultImageThis tour was the largest tour done by a solo performer. It created huge press and media coverage across the globe. The attendance was about 4.4 million. During this tour his concert at Aintree was a sellout with a turnout of 125.000 people. When the tour concluded it grossed a total of $125 million, adding two new entries in the Guinness Book of World Records for the largest grossing tour in history and the tour with the largest attended audience.
At last, I should say, “He was the legend.”

That particular song struck me as the most funny because... well, it's Jacko saying he's bad. He's in leather. He's grabbing his crotch. He's going eee hee in a girly voice. Latoya is more manly. He had to know right?
Go ahead. Get it out of your system and tell me how awful I am for stating the obvious.

What I have learned from all this:
If I make some album or two, or some such, that people like a lot. Then have a longish tailed career that fizzles into bizarre behaviour. Then become a reclusive weirdo and walking punchline, mocked relentlessly for 15yrs before dying in a thoroughly unspectacular way. Can all those who supposedly love and praise me for my early work to the end please tell me <i>before</i> I hoof the pail? That'd be great.

It's alright - dying makes you conclusively not a weirdo paedophile.

To all those who sincerely believe Michael Jackson was a paedophile, if you're a parent - or if you aren't, then make believe for a few minutes - contsider if your child had been abused by Michael Jackson... would you even consider a cash payout for your child's dignity, the loss of their innocence, and effectively pimp your child out to a star?
Or would you want to take the fucker to court?
Consider that, and the fact that every case settled out of court for an undisclosed sum in the millions.

Would you allow your 12 yr old child to stay unaccompanied in a middle age mans bedroom in the first place?
Scots Taffer on 27/6/2009 at 10:05
Worse, Namdrol, I remember back when the shit was in the papers parents testifying that "they were sick at night with worry about their kid while they went to Neverland" - well why the fuck would you let them if you weren't a gold-digging fuck?
Also, funny how rich kids like Macauley Culkin and Corey Feldman never got abused...
