Michael Jackson has just died in LA. Despite all the child molestation rumors, and the general craziness, he was the man. No question about it. THE MAN. The Jackson 5 are probably in my top 10 favorite bands of all time, and my college buddies used to sing Billie Jean to me at bars. And, importantly, even with the crazy (and the whole Beatles catalogue debacle), his new music didn't suck. It was actually pretty good. The new songs on the Thriller re-release in 08 were fantastic. There may have been more on the way but we'll never really know.
DJ Victorious will much more accurately convey feelings because in her words "I'm actually really upset. Do you think this will increase the value of my Michael Jackson Barbie Doll?"
Rest in Peace Michael, you were the man.
