Goodbye, Mr Jackson

Michael Jackson, Entertainer. Born 29th August 1958; Died 25th June 2009

I can't say anything which won't be said on a million other blogs and news websites. Here is The Guardian's report; here is the BBC; here is El País; and here is CNN.

No matter the scandals and the eccentricity, he gave us forty years of great music. I along with mllions all over the world grew up with him as The Pop Star of Them All.

Mr Jackson, you will be greatly - and very sorely - missed...

  1. Desperately sad - the man's entire backstory is a horribly tragedy. Should any self-serving, heartless souls choose to mention the controversy and rumours, they ought to look at the little boy who suffered so - and the the King of Pop who died a long, long time ago.

  2. TG-K: I'm still trying to believe it.

    Garçon: Amen, which is exactly why I preferred to put up an image of the funky little brother who charmed everyone back in the the 70s
