Mourning Michael Jackson

Reader Comments

• 46. Michael was a creative genius-the likes of which we'll never see in our lifetime. It's sad that some people will forget his incredible talent in the wake of the garbage spread about him. Let this be a lesson for us all-WE are ultimately responsible for this man's death. We put him in a fishbowl and expected him to perform at all times. He had no chance of having a normal life. We expect our celebrities to be perfect, and when they show us they are just like us, we want to villify them. Michael was an easy target because he was trying to give himself the normal childhood he never had. People have forgotten how much he gave to the world-his genius, his money to charities, his humanitarionism, and, sadly, ultimately his life. R.I.P. Michael-some of us understood.

• 51. From the time I remember for myself till now,what mean in te last 30 years without doubt Michael Jackson was person #1 in whole world.Not the popes not any president of any country not anyone from the richest or most pourful men in this world can match with how popular Michael was.Or like someone I heard theother day on tv want to compered him to the princes Diana(RU people joking princes Diana who has who knows how many lovers in this world and was a prins's wife xaaxa)I belive it was just a joke. My respect to YOU Michael,YOU'll be always between us.

• 57. YA KNOW THE LINE OF A SONG ONCE TOLD IT ALL " RUMORS ARE STARTED BY THE JEALOUS PEOPLE"!!! FOR EVERONE WHO HAS EVER SAID, OR GONNA SAY, BAD THINGS ABOUT PEOPLE. THEY ARE DO NOT KNOW PERSONALLY. THEY ARE PEOPLE THAT ARE INSECURE IN THEMSELVES, TO THE POINT THAT THEY HAVE TO SAY BAD THINGS TO GET ATTENTION. WELL, A LIE IN ANY FORM IS STILL A LIE. IF YOU HAVEN'T WALKED IN HIS SHOES OR SAT DOWN AND HAD A PERSONAL TALK WITH HIM.THEN YOU SHOULD NOT SAY ANYTHING NEGATIVE ABOUT HIM. MY GRANNY USE TO SAY THAT ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THEN WORDS. FOR ALL THE POSITIVE THINGS HE HAS DONE IN HIS LIFE--THERE IS NOT NEGATIVE THAT CAN DIM THE LIGHT OF A GIFT. AND MICHAEL JACKSON WAS A GIFT TO THE WORLD. EVERY TIME HE SANG YOU COULD FEEL THE SONG-NOT JUST HERE IT. REST IN PEACE MJ FOR YOU HAVE THE BEST COMEBACK CONCERT EVER GIVEN.

• 59. I wish Michael could have been here to see the out-pouring of love from the world for him. Like Elvis, who once said "They will never remember me when I'm gone," I dont think Michael ever really felt the love that the world had for him. I dont think he ever felt good enough or like he had done enough. The sad thing is that he really cared what the world thought about him. Could you imagine? After everything that he had done to make this world a better place, he cared what we thought of him? I just wish he could know that regardless of the fact that there are those who wanted to villainize him, there are so many more who saw him for what he really was, a humanitarian, in the true sense of the word. A man with more love for this world than this world deserves. From those of us who truly care, THANK YOU MICHAEL JACKSON! You were a true assett to this world and we now feel the loss. You, like Elvis, will ALWAYS be remembered and you will forever be the KING OF POP!

• 60. Ive never classed myself as being a fan of any particular artist, though i enjoy all music.Upon hearing of MJs tragic death i am deeply saddened, my heart aches for the children who obviously idolised their dad.I send my love to all the GENUINE family and friends who loved Michael unconditionally XX To the dedicated fans you were blessed to have been a part of his music, that, will live forever, and he was blessed to have had fans like you. Nothing to fear now Michael youh are ome. God Bless XXXXX LOVE ALWAYS X
