I was never really a fan but I will give you this, possibly the greatest music video of all time; "Thriller."

R.I.P Michael

Looks likes it been confirmed

I can still remember waiting up to watch the Thriller video for its debut showing and see the video's for the early hits. And who can forget Billie Jean at the Motown Awards?

R.I.P. Michael Jackson.

The King of Pop

Sad, two people that still had a lot of life in front of them. Certainly makes you think.

Unfortunate passing of a young and talented musician whose more recent years were tainted by controversy. Interesting that we sometimes assume we have "x amount" of life in front of us but actuarial tables were meaningless to these two individuals (MJ & FF), both of whom will be missed by many. Rest in peace.

Very very sad news, a really delicate human being who had a not great father, is it any wonder he seemed so odd.
Whenever I saw him I felt a sadness about him. I hope he can now rest in peace and be at peace. God bless you Micheal, you gave so much in such a short time, your shone a tremendous light into the world and will never be forgotten.
In this day and age of instant celebrity he was a true Icon and a true star..

Although I'm not a big fan, he did produce some great hits..

He will go down in history as one of the most successful entertainers of all time...'nuff said..
