epoh Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 The King of Pop kicked the bucket at age 50 ! He was definitely a legend during the time I grew up. I hope his soul is in a good place. I am obviously not a fan of all the raucous he caused with his alleged kid molestation accusations and court trials etc. but that aside post your favorite Michael Jackson memory. Amongst other things I will remember him for playing this game epoh2009-06-25 19:42:10
Sammajoor Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Because of all his surgery he will most probably rest in pieces
Tumbleweed Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 just one request hubbers: can we please stay away from jokes about his alleged sexual proclivities? in this country, possibly more than most, it is simply not a funny subject.
Sammajoor Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Was not going to go there........ Most of us have can relate to one of his songs. Everyone did the moonwalk in Thriller. RIP MJ............... maybe you can have peace now
Wyatt Earp Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Well said Samma. I was never a big fan but also did the moonwalk and enjoyed quite a few songs. As I said to my wife, we are shocked as we probably thought he would live forever, 50 is a young age.
1hill@aTime Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Shocked!!. Loved the guys music even though he was a bit of a freak, RIP
Christie Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Sad end to a very talented individual. Rates among the all time musical greats of the modern era.
Schwynn Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 His likes and dislikes are none of my concern. He made a huge contribution to the music industry in my time and I enjoyed a lot of his music, for that I am thankful to him.
Sean Badenhorst Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Not many people can claim to have changed the global music landscape. Michael Jackson was one of the few that did. His musical and dance influence is still so strong among the youth. I'm sad that we've lost such a great talent, but I'm glad I was able to experience and appreciate it. Rest in peace.
dagwood123 Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 What an entertainer......He was the best....May your sould R I P.....MJ

GTfan Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Made some awesome awesome music, still the king of pop..
Iwan Kemp Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Yesterday om my way to gym, my iPod seemingly decided it was MJ day. Listened to a couple his songs in a row and I was thinking what a great singer/songwriter/entainer the guy was, and how sad it is that he lost the plot. A legend in his time and one of the few solo artists who inspired several generations and some of the biggest names in entertainment today.
thefugitive Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Such a sad loss.. He is definitely one of those entertainers who made a very large impact on the way pop music and stage performances were shaped for the future.. Does he still have the record for the biggest selling album ever for Thriller?? What ever he got up to in his personal life, doesn't really matter to me.. Those antics will eventually be forgotten with time but his legacy for his music will live on.. RIP
