MJ
Finally.

 * Music is the best. Jackson wasn't. --Brian McNeil / talk 23:11, 25 June 2009 (UTC)

Right, since fucking Frank Zappa wrote an album that sold over 109 million copies, had a Super Bowl halftime show watched by more people than the entire game, and became a cultural icon, he's definitely more important than Michael Jackson. Oh wait, that's right. Zappa's not that great and won't ever be a fourth of how influential Jackson was. You know MTV? Yeah it would have never survived had it not started showing MJ's music videos. You know... "Thriller"... arguably the greatest music videos, if not short films of all time? Even if you never liked Michael Jackson's music or persona, I think you should recognize how much of a historic figure he was musically and culturally.
 * Jackson was indisputably talented, but the music was mostly bubblegum pop. People interested in being pop icons will hold Jackson up as an influence; those in it for music will cite Zappa. --Brian McNeil / talk 21:06, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

Micheal Jackson was one of the most talented musicians I've ever heard of. He outranks even DragonForce and Genesis in his music, and that's saying something. MJ really doesn't deserve to be falsely remembered as a damn child sexual molester that he never even was! At least people have enough brains to not make fun of a dead man.

Rest in Peace
I don't care how weird he was, he was definitely talented. Poor guy won't be remembered for his music he'll be remembered for the media ruining his life.

The Man, The Legend, The Myth
God Bless u Michael Jackson R.I.P. I don't care what you guys think if he was a nut and a child molester his music was unbelieveable and his spirit will go on forever... --71.254.108.245 (talk) 23:13, 25 June 2009 (UTC)

 * This is very true, however there have been a lot more high profile deaths than usual. Rgoodermote (talk) 21:09, 27 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Good point, there.

A Legend
Michael Jackson was truly a legend in the history of music. Whether he is guilty of what he was convicted of, whether he got tons of plastic surgery or whether that was his real face aside, at one point, Mr. Jackson had an amazing voice that changed the generation.
 * Who could actually argue that it was his real face?! Come on! --83.141.77.130 (talk) 15:40, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

MJ died
YES HE DID

nathan weber has posted michael jackson has inspired me and other famous celebrities such as justin timberlake usher and many more but he will go in history as the king of pop rip mj


 * You are a famous celebrity inspired by MJ? --SVTCobra 01:15, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

what a legacy, no one will forget wacko jacko!

I can't even believed this happend! i mean I love him and he is so good and the doctor who told him yesterday when michael called them and told him he wasn't feeling good didn't even want to take him to the hosptial to see what was going on. Maybe then they would have know what happend!! I can't believe this! Farrah Fawcett died and from cancer and this is just sad. I'm 12 years old and I can't belive this is all happening. I would tell my brother that One day I waas going to meet Michael jackson on his tour and faint. Then i would go back stage and say "Michael I love you and your the greatest!" I always told him that I would love to marry michael if I was older becuase he's good looking and he was a amazing person! I will always love him forever more!!!!!!! RIP MJ becuase you will never be forgoten and remember everyone:He's in a better place were he can sit back and watch all the things he did when he was living. And he never left this world he is still with us. He was kind and he thought about people and he will never be forgoten. RIP King of pop! i will always love you in many ways. I never got to see michael ever!!!!!!!!!!
 * "One day I waas going to meet Michael jackson on his tour and faint"... What a great shame you were cruelly denied the opportunity to pass out at a pop concert. We're all sorry for your troubles. --83.141.77.130 (talk) 15:40, 4 November 2009 (UTC)


 * I just lost my childhood idol. :( 69.118.145.80 (talk) 02:00, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

Criminal activities
I see no relevance in citing someones' alleged criminal activities in a news report that is about someones' death. Why not say something about how millions of people loved this person? Why even put anything in the so called "news" article that has nothing to do with the persons' death? I think it's tacky, disrespectful, and overall demeaning to be any kind of negative person when someone dies. You suck.
 * And why not? Its relevant information relevant to his life. If we added how many millions of people loved him, then we would have to add how many millions more hated him. We have a NPOV rule and adding all that would be like idolizing him. We are not here to do that or make sensationalistic claims. News articles are about the facts of a situation.

Noman Alam
I dont belive that he passed away. He was a man of music and music never dies.


 * I gotta agree with you, there...

michael's music carries on his leagacy
Michael Jackson has made history with his music he knows parents share his music with their chidren. When Michael put that he has worked very hard to make Thriller a memorable CD he knew it would be a memerable CD, he knew it would be remembered and passed down. All though he is gone his music and views on life are not. His passing was a shock to my family and I because we were expecting and wanting to see him back at the top where he should be. He did so much even before his death and aparently that was enough. Rest in peace Michael Jackson. My respects Jacob.

MICHEALS PASSING
I HAVE BEEN A FAN OF MICHAEL'S FOR 38 YRS.I VIVIDLY REMEMBER HEARING MICHEAL SINGING ON THE RADIO IN MY HOME TOWN OF MANUREWA,NEWZEALAND WHEN I HAD JUST TURNED SEVEN.I HAVE FOLLOWED MICHEALS LIFE STORY OVER THE YEARS AND THE ACCUSATIONS MADE ABOUT HIM WERE NOTHING BUT LIES.THESE VULTURES DEVISED PLANS AND USED MICHEALS GOOD NATURE AGAINST HIM.THESE PEOPLE KNEW HOW SENSITIVE HE WAS TOWARDS YOUNGSTERS AND THAT ALL HE WAS TRYING TO DO WAS GIVE THEM A MEMORABLE CHILDHOOD.THE WORLD WAS WELL AWARE THAT MICHAEL MISSED OUT ON THE INOCENSE OF HAVING A CHILD HOOD.I AM SADDENDED TO HEAR OF HIS PASSING AND I AM SURE HE WILL BE UP IN THE HEAVENS PARTYING WITH ALL MY AND HIS FORFATHERS THAT HAVE GONE BEFORE US.

Celine Dion vis a vis JFK
I find it interesting that Dion said: "It feels like when Kennedy died, when Elvis died. It's an amazing loss."

According to WP, she was born in 1968, JFK died in 1963. How could she possible feel something about Kennedy's death when she wasn't alive?

Quote on his death
Craig Ross says, "He was innocent the whole time! The kids made him do it! He's the victim."

 * Are you one of those people that hated MJ? This quote is, as far as I know, true! MJ was not a child molester, he was a legend!

we're gonna miss the king of pop..
i still remember when i was young how much i adored the songs and the videos of michael jacson.. (mu'awiah al'amad)

And I'm glad I have less competition now.

Michael Jackson's death: I am aware that a lot of people will be basically happy of his death due to circumstances of the past few years, whether its true or not we will never know, let us remember him as the man who brought us so much, he is an inspiration to the world and he will be missed incredibly, whether you like him or not, you cant deny that he has changed the face of HIStoy.
 * That's an epic typo ya got there pardner! :-P --Brian McNeil / talk 00:53, 17 December 2009 (UTC)

You will never be forgotten!
R.I.P Michael, the greatest entertainer of all time!

 * Get help. --83.141.77.130 (talk) 15:40, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

This story is untrue. Michael Jackson is still alive. I saw him at the chip shop. He bought fish (cod, I believe), chips, curry sauce and two cans of 7-Up.
 * I suppose Elvis Presley and Marylin Monroe were in line behind him too? DragonFire1024 (Talk to the Dragon) 17:17, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Are you sure about that order? Was it cod or just plain whiting? And was it Diet 7-Up? After all, we don't want Jacko to be eating poorly just because he faked his own death. --83.141.77.130 (talk) 15:40, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

Top blokes after death
Ah, Wacko Jacko. The Chasers would rewrite this song today if given the chance.

Only Zappa truly mocked appropriately when he was alive. "A foolish young man Of the Negro Persuasion Devoted his life To become a Caucasian He stopped eating pork He stopped eating greens He traded his dashiki ("UHURU!") For some Jordache Jeans He learned to play golf An' he got a good score Now he says to himself ("I AIN'T NO NIGGER NO MORE...HEY! HEY! HEY!")" --Brian McNeil / talk 17:30, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

fuck you McNeil, only you get amused by your weak humor and bigotry. get a life.

will greatly miss MJ loads.r.i.p

Sad to hear, so can we move on already?
As much as I like(d) Michael Jackson, network television/news seriously need to shut up about him. If I hear thriller one more time I'm going to break a blood vessel. There are wars, revolutions and nuclear standoffs going on right now, but all my TV wants to talk about is how "Thriller was like the best workout music ever".

Michael Jackson Rocks!
When ever I need good music I'll go to youtube time in Michael Jackson. He was awesome then and he still is. He is the person I look up to. He is in a better place now. We thank good that he gave us Michael Jackson. Some people have to go we might not see him but we can always keep him in our heart. I am a fover lover of Michael Jackson.
 * How long I've waited to see another fover lover of MJ! --83.141.77.130 (talk) 15:40, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

he will be missed
We all miss him very much. From his days at motown until he became known as the king of pop Meteorman7228 (talk) 01:04, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

Michael for all
I grew up listening to Michael Jackson, so did my mother, her mother before her and my great-grandmother knew his name. Even in my adolescence, I still relish listening to Thriller and I could remember my mother playing him on the car radio when I was a child. So truly, Michael Jackson has reached out to many generations and people while a man like himself only comes around one generation. He has inspired millions and will continue to. I will always remember Michael Jackson!

Unexpected reaction
This reaction of grief sure was not expected. I always thought he was well known but not exactly liked. The accustations are over with now... :/ Clark89 (talk) 07:35, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

No-one will read this. I don't care, it needs to be said.
Michael Jackson was amazing and did not deserve this shit. Poor guy :( Even in death people are making tasteless jokes about him.

He should have been remembered for his music, but somehow I doubt that'll happen now.

Rest in Peace Michael, You were simply too good for this pathetic planet.

Long live the king...
I listened to his music every single time he was alive. I saw on Sympatico, "What Happened To Micheal Jackson?" I read one quarter of it, and looked at the 9-1-1 tape on Wikipedia. I never thought that was going to happen. Never in my entire life.
