I miss.. the man he seemed to be back in the 80s. Michael Jackson was one of the people I listened to pretty constantly as I grew up. My mother was a big Michael Jackson fan. She owned "Off the Wall", "Thriller" and "Bad". It wasn't until HIStory that the Sheen on Michael rubbed off for her, and for me. That song, "They Don't Care About Us" that still sounds anti-semitic to my ears.. that just turned both of us off at the time.<br /><br />I mourn Michael Jackson as he was as the King of Pop.. perhaps a little eccentric at times, but not.. what he became before dying, the butt of a long-standing joke, Whacko Jacko.<br /><br />Back in the 80s, Michael Jackson couldn't do much wrong. He WAS the King of Pop. He was the Elvis Presley of my generation. <br /><br />I'm tempted to go and see if I can't get Thriller on iTunes Store or something this weekend.<br /><br />So... Rest in Peace, Michael. You were a.. unique individual to watch as you aged. But I'll always remember you in the Zombie Makeup dancing in the empty lot with your Zombie Minions...<br /><br />*moonwalks out*<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=hkellick&ditemid=632033" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://hkellick.dreamwidth.org/632033.html rip news Michael Jackson - Billie Jean sad public 0
