Michael Jackson passes away.
 

Say what you will about how weird the guy was, but there's no denying how big of a musical influence he was or how insanely talented he was. I always hoped he'd get past all the media mess and get back into songwriting. Being a part of the generation that grew up on his music, it's kinda sad to know that's never gonna happen.

May you dance with the zombies forever MJ. :O

I have never known a world without Michael Jackson. I'm frightened.

Same here :(

yeah, I'm pretty sad about it.

michael jackson died years ago

How bizarre. I'd heard he was rushed to hospital, but I thought he was going to shoot out of the hospital roof in a shower of glitter and call it his biggest comeback ever.

Jackson Five still sounds great, I think I only really liked his solo stuff because of Smooth Criminal.

He scared the bejesus out of me with the yellow eyes at the end of the Thriller video, when I was a kid. It caught me completely off guard.

farrah is also dead but she's not getting any news coverage whatsoever because of michael. :(

Because they know what's important.

He died years ago. What do you think that pale, rotting corpse was?

But seriously, I won't miss New MJ, but he kicked ass back in the day. Kinda weird to see him go, but after he became such a huge spectacle, I'm glad it's done with.

I apologize for my original thread. I'm pretty bummed about it. Mtv is currently showing some of michael jackson's stuff. I'll always cherish the moment he and I were in the same building when I saw him in new york city during the victory tour back in 1985.

damn he didn't went down with a bang like i was hoping

YEAH

neil hamburgers gonna have so much new material for his act

Ten bucks says he pulls this out of his casket.

OH SHIT, I forgot about a funeral. That's gonna be insane.

People always seem to forget about this video, but it was always one of my favorites of his - and the song was awesome too.

Better quality version here:

They're gonna start lowering it in, and then there's gonna be a huge BANG, followed by smoke coming out of the hole. When it clears, Black Michael Jackson will be standing on his tombstone, saying 'I'm not dead! I'm alive, and I'm here to ROCK YOUR WORLD ALL OVER AGAIN!'
Insert kicks and 'ah-heeyuh-heeyuhs' as necessary.

and andy kaufman's gonna have been in on it somehow, right

If you say so.

I didn't really like that video, if only because it was part of a giant movie of him bragging about how awesome he was. Make up your mind, Mike. The song was good, though.

Also, there are rumors now that Jeff Goldblum died too. I'm hoping that's false, though. He seemed alright when he appeared on the Colbert Report.

You all realize this means I am now the King of Pop.

And what a righteous and just king you are.
