MICHAEL JACKSON DIED!!!
too much for words...really.
We, grew up with him, he was the birth of Mtv...thriller, billie jean...I loved his music, and him. As a child he was one of the first artists that I liked, at age 5 I wore his buttons, little tin buttons with his photos on them, on my sweaters around Boston.
I know he is a wierd o, but truly I felt sad for him and intriged by him.
I loved the way he danced, to think into his 50's he had those moves!
And I loved his passion for performance and music...
His life was tragic, marked by bad choices but he was the "King of Pop."
He was a major icon of our time...without him is like saying "hey by the way there are no more hamburgers anywhere in america...the hamburger is gone!" Now there is something from our time, that played a huge part in our culture that at one time most of us adored be it 20 years ago, gone...wow. You know how people love Elvis, and James Dean...but we weren't around during there high time, while they were alive, but we see there impact...but for Michael we were around, and now he is gone.
Wow...I pray that the Lord managed to break into his heart and transform is soul at his last breath.

really shocking! I could not believe it. This must be the way my mom felt when John left. :-(
Hey Mish,
Thanks for blogging about this. Yes, it is huge in the dance world. He basically invented pop dance that we recognize now and people like Justin Timberlake, Usher, Britney, NSync wouldn't be around if it weren't for his influence. He definitely was important to our culture. We can only speculate about what troubles he had in his personal life, but I know as a dancer this was very shocking.
