i'm really saddened by some of the reporters and people bringing up his past "issues" they need to show some respect!!! no matter what he may or may not have done he is still a human... AND a father!!! He was cleared of all that stuff too. I just listened to Beat It and halfway through I just said to myself "shit, that dude is dead". Its strange listening to it now. i just know i wouldn't want people talking shit about my dad if he died... even though he isn't the greatest dad...  |

I found myself getting offended at stuff people wrote on youtube videos. Like its weird cos I wasnt a fan yet Im getting defensive of him all of a sudden. |

this made me super sad when I heard they talk about it on the radio. Sad day! I mean, yes he was a little weird...but that man made some good music back in the day! I mean, Thriller! Come on! 
It's weird too because I was just listening to him yesterday at work.

The official website has shut down. That means bad news. RIP King of Pop EDIT: I just looked up Ticketmaster. It doesn't say any of the UK shows are cancelled... Maybe they're going to wait for an official statement from the Jackson family or somethin before they do anything... |

It's just shocking though isn't it? Just really unexpectedl. I'm not old enough to remember or anything but everything about him was fresh and innovative. everybody liked his music! who doesn't like michael jackson? He has doesn't anything much musically for a long time but his legacy and his music and influence will always be there. There will never be a superstar like him ever again. It's sort of the end of an era or something  RIP |

Fuck at first I thought it was some wacky publicity stunt spiralling out of control...but now, oh my god. And the 50 nights at the O2 were supposed to break a record or something, weren't they? I've never been a fan, but it really does feel like the end of an era.

Black or White just came on the radio I actually have a tear in my eye. Like alot of people have said, even though I wouldnt class myself as a fan, I still know all the words to the songs and stuff, and you just have to sing along Im really quite sad. |

He played Cork in '88. Myself and a mate ran up the fields behind my house that night to hear him. It was only across the river from us, my earliest childhood memory  Thats the one! I was 7, I reckon my life would have been very different if I had made it to that concert. They read the setlist on the radio this morning and it was immense!! |
