That is sad, because his music is not only timeless, but f'n incredible (up until his last 2 albums or so).

I remember when I was younger, I was allowed to listen to only two artist. & I only had 2 store bought tapes (yes youngins, I said tapes) and most the rest of my music was disney stuff on records (HOLY **** yes a fuckin record... imagine that... no I'm not that old you whippersnapper ;)) except I think I had Bad single on a record too

I had Michael Jackson Thriller(on the white cassette tape) & MC Hammer "Please Hammer Don't Hurt 'Em" (Can't Touch This).
To this day, those are still two of my favorite albums. I would always hope that MJ & MC Hammer would team up on a song.
It was a sad sad day in my house when my Thriller album got eaten by the tape deck. I pulled the tape apart, and repaired it with some scotch tape just so I could listen to it some more.

To this day, this is still one of my favorite songs:
"Wanna be startin' somethin'"

A link to all his music videos:
http://myplay.com/videos/michael-jackson/all

I just listened to "The way you make me feel" for the first time in I don't know how many years, and it just gave my goose bumps all over. Actually watching the video, I have a huge grin on my face watching MJ chase down a lady.

I feel the need to link to this video because we could all use a good laugh right now.  ;D

Still one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time.

CONSPIRACY THEORY:

What if this is all some elaborate publicity stunt. He makes us think he died but comes back in his Thriller (song) outfit, all zombied out, and throws on some huge public performance somewhere??

Maybe cuz when he was all over the radio, radio stations sucked (still do) and would start and end songs so you only really ever heard a freakin chorus. I hate when dj's fade out a song early and talk over the endings.. UGH

Do yourself a favor and watch Thriller video(Long Version) all the way through. Its a short movie with really high production values.
Many was considered a scary movie at the time.

edit: found it for you

Thriller - Long Version - 10:00

edit 2: the real long version

Thriller's good and all, but you'd be better off just watching the Billie Jean video three times in a row.

God, I love that song.

I.E. A generic pop song that was the failed attempt at a comeback. It sounded like it was from the 90s (and not in a good way) and nobody believed that a woman would rock Jackons world.

"Billie Jean" is easily his best song IMO, followed by "Beat It", "Smooth Criminal" and "Bad". "Black or White" wasn't bad either.

I loved MJ's music.  I remember being 5 and hearing the deep voice in the thriller song.  Scared the *** of of me, but I loved it.  That man WAS rhythm.  He was to music what Jordan was to basketball, strangely, they have the same initials.

Anyone remember how America freaked out after the Black and White video premier?  Silly Americans....

I think the big shock was that it was Michael Jackson of all people doing this, and that it was after such a peaceful music video that was being watched by many kids (Jackson was so popular at the time that the world premiere of the video was aired in primetime by FOX/MTV/VH1/BET simultaneously and got huge ratings).

It wasn't Jackson's worst single, but I think you would agree that it was nowhere near being one of his best.

While the video was epic, the song wasn't his best.  He had better ones from that album.

A lot of people are buying his music, 9 of the Top 10 selling albums on iTunes are from Michael Jackson ("The Essential Michael Jackson" being #1) an 6 of the top 10 singles are his (for some reason "Man in the Mirror" is his highest selling song, at #2 on iTunes Top 10 singles), 8 of the top 10 music videos on iTunes are Jacksons ("Thriller" is #1) and he produced/sang on one of the other 2 songs ("We Are the World" by USA for Africa).

Too bad people didn't show this kind of love when he was alive, he might not have foreclosed on his ranch and had a heart attack from all the stress.


And on a related note; there are some jokes that came my way regarding MJ... is it too soon?

Yeah, right. Michael Jackson lost the ranch because people stopped buying his CDs.  And, no, it's not too soon...

Did you know Michael Jackson actually died of food poisoning?

Yeah, turns out he ate an 8 year old wiener.

Depends on the jokes. With Jackson, I don't think there is any waiting period for jokes. If a someone universally loved (like Johnny Carson) dies, that is different.

Has there been anything said about his debt? I hope it isn't passed on to his kids, now that would actually make me sad.

His kids won't be getting his debt. Besides, his estate owns his entire library plus a pretty large portion of The Beatles library, so that is a lot of royalties coming in (especially now that he is dead, tons of people are buying his music again).

I still say there's a waiting period for MJ jokes.  He was the king, and he married the former king's daughter.  No easy feat.  I'm waiting at least 2 weeks.
