I was watching E Network and a breaking news alert came on telling that Michael Jackson just suffered a heart attack. It was said that Joe Jackson said that his son (Michael) is not well.

    wow, i am shocked that he passed. such a young age. no words. i loved him when i was in 3rd grade when thriller came out.

    to the guy above me that called him a pedaphile, he was acquitted of that by the way. i can't believe that you have the audacity to talk about the guy that way. he just fucking died. let him get cold before you bash him like that. have some respect. but then again by reading your posts in other threads i can tell that you are not capable of that.

    Being aquitted and paying off the Planitff who then dropped the case is a little different. I am sorry for his family but to me no "celebrity" deserves any more "tears' then my family

    An amazing musician.

    May he finally RIP as he never had any sense of 'peace' in his life - just upheaval and controversy followed by the same.

    The man knew how to entertain for sure. He may have abused and HE certainly was taken advantaged of with the $$$ he had.

    actually in 2005 he was found not guilty. he settled out of court in the earlier case. i am not apoligizing for his behavior or alleged behavior. all i was saying was the making the world a better place was a little tasteless.

    actually oj and mj have nothing to do with each other. mj is dead and oj is in jail.

    all i was saying is let the man be buried before you start dancing on his grave and celebrating how much better the world is right now.

    This. He settled with the kid and his family out of court because things would have been said during the trial that obviously wouldn't have been good. Now everyone is on TV saying how great of a person he was. He had good music in the 80's then became a creep for the next 20 years. Tell it how it is, good musician for a time, horrible person. Millions of children are cheering with glee right now

    I hate our society. Let's not pretend we don't build up people only to tear them down, and once they hit bottom, once again give a crap. As of yesterday afternoon, MJ was a freakshow most people thought was a pedofile. Is it ashame he died, sure, but let's not lose our heads. He was once a person who added great music to the world, so let's just leave it at that and not fabricate it into something more.

    poor guy. i heard from somewhere, but probably not all that credible, that he was planning a come back.

    yeah, he had contraversy, but really, are we ever going to find out the truth? no.
    so im not going to call him a pedophile, and im not going to call him innocent.
    he had great music, and it sucks that no one ever left him alone.

    I remember back in the early 90's how music fans were celebrating bands like Nirvana, AIC and Pearl Jam because they shifted music AWAY from people like Michael Jackson. Smells like Teen Spirit was pretty much the song that sent Michael Jackson into the abyss. Pop music sucked, and the "King of Pop" was one of the reasons why.

    I've reached the same age as Jackson was - 50, and it's starting to happen. People I've heard about all of my life are starting to die. It's an odd sensation to know that pretty soon people who have figured prominently in public life--as well as people like myself who have not--in my private life will start to go and begin to leave a vacuum, if I'm not very careful. Maybe I won't live to see much of it...I could be next. I could live a long time. Regardless, the world as I have known it changes a big notch with the death of someone I perceive as "so young"--my age.

    I remember my parents, both gone on--much, much older than myself (me 6, my dad 60), going through this from their generational standpoint. Their lives, their times, their friends...all started to fall away. At first it was uncomfortable and shocking. Later it was depressing. If you are "lucky" and live long and prosper, you will live to see everything you have known and, sometimes, cherished pass away. Life has an immediacy most of us don't get.

    One thing that has distinguished Pearl Jam as a band is that they have repeatedly demonstrated that they do get this immediacy. It's one of the reasons I've loved them long. :)

    Here today. Here tomorrow? No one knows. Live well. Treat others well. Cherish the moment.

    As to Jackson himself--I loved his dancing and much of his music. I disagree the reason pop sucked was because of him or people musically similar to him. I'm not saying this to incite anything, but I can hear Thriller play in my head right now, but I honestly don't remember how Smells Like Teen Spirit went. I feel like the importance of Nirvana was that they were game changers, not that they were particularly amazingly memorable songwriters/lyricists. Vedder is a better lyricist than Cobain was. It's a good thing Nirvana were game changers--the game did need to be changed. And it needs to be changed again. And it will be changed again by people who are mostly much younger than most Pearl Jam fans. Hopefully, those people will have a respectful attitude toward those who came before, for generations of musicians always stand on the shoulders of people who came before them.
