Unbelievable....
What a shock!

Shockingly sad news. By the time you get to this thread you will probably have already known. But in case you don't, Michael Jackson was pronounced dead today of an apparent heart attack.

Let this thread serve as a memorial for his musical contributions. Please be respectful and do NOT comment on the more controversial aspects of his legacy.

Thank you

-David

That was sooo sad. He is a legend.

Fifth th... oh never mind

I listened to thriller a few weeks ago, it was alright. In light of this I might try a few other albums and see if I like any of them.

From what it looks like he is done. All the sources seem to point for the same direction he had an issue with his heart and is either in extremely critical condition and/or dead. Either way a very sad day for his fans and listeners indeed.

Although I am not a fan but it is such a shock that a mega star died so young and so suddenly.

CNN link. Although they say they haven't confirmed it.

RIP Michael.

I hope you can find peace now.

It doesn't matter then, as long as

1) You're succesful
2) Made lots of money
3) Started a group of some kind
4) Produced art/music/other

Doesn't change the fact. I'll be happy when Gary Glitter kicks the bucket.

 

[necropimp]

BBC also just confirmed it

 

[warubozu]

Just heard right now on the radio and confirmed in our local newspaper that Michael Jackson has passed on. Man what a sad week, earlier this week Ed McMahon then earlier today Farrah Fawcett and now Michael. RIP

What a ****storm of terrible reporting.

Im surprised that his body has lasted this long considering the butchering and surgery it has gone through. But still, I take off my hat for his death, he is a pop legend in all accounts... And I have yet to see his rival when it comes to dancing...
