That's right. I got it. I work at the hospital and grabbed it while he was being worked on. Came off rather cleanly and surprisingly easy. Doesn't feel like skin so much as it does like soft vinyl plastic.

Michael. The greatest who ever did it. Michael really taught the world the universal power of music, from India to South America, America, Japan, etc. people who spoke all languages and came from every religion race and culture jammed out to Michael Jackson. When i traveled as a kid i still remember people who could hardly speak english would always resort to "America, America? MICHAEL JACKSON!" I never forgot how his music like the one thing around the world EVERYONE knew. THE ONE THING.
I love Music and that is in no small way because of this man's work. Through it all, Michael, you were loved regardless of whether you knew it or not.
The first black artist to be shown on MTV ends up defining the MTV generation. His great years were in the past but I will always love beat it; and the videos, man as a kid I remember bein made go out of the room on the tv premier of thriller because they had some stupid age warning before it started ... I remember rockin out listenin to it in the next room trying to get a look.
Wow...This reminds me of when a co-worker, in his late 30s and who I was starting to get aquainted with during the first six months of working at my job that I started a year ago, died from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in his sleep. Maybe that's the case with Michael.
Anyhow, I was too young to experience the Thrillermania of the 80s, but "I Want You Back", "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough", "Smooth Criminal" and a long list of other songs, either from the Motown or Quincy Jones (read his offical eulogy which was aired on the news a couple of hours ago) years, are ones that I would always enjoy moreso by turning it up when playing on the car radio or a party stereo. And I have to admit, he did have a knack for attention getting off-stage eccentricities, which many people including myself found hilarious, all humiliating interpersonal legal drama aside.
I remember, for whatever reason, catching Jermaine Jackson talking to Larry King on TV a little over a year ago. King was asking Jermaine, apparently related with gospel music or other religious outreach of some sort, about his relationship with his brother after a lady called in and statedsomething to the effect of, "How come you never speak about JERMAINE? Talk more about YOUR music. Michael has enough fame.", etc. He, still with highly gelled Jeris and looking errily calm, was praising how much of a good person and intelligent man MJ is. That was both inspiring and comicly odd. You can probably find it on You Tube. I couldn't. Anyhow, thanks for the awesome music.
RIP...unless you raped all those little kids, right???????
bizarre that this has not been mentioned.
show your face lawboy. 1A
sorry, i'm taken.
seriously though, i'm surprised people are strictly paying tribute to the man's work, as if the allegations never existed. this isn't a hallmark card that's being sent to his family.
is that stuff irrelevant to folks? will the future OJ RIP thread be an equal lovefest?

Can't you just take a minute to respect all the positive contributions that this man thrust upon the world?

This dude wouldn't bring that up if we were all sitting around in person discussing how much of a profound impact the music of Michael Jackson had on us.
Come on KVH, give it a rest. There's plenty of time discuss all of that, but can you give the guy his just dues on the day of his passing? It's your perogative if you want to remember MJ, the man at his worst, but today I choose to celebrate MJ, the legend and his music.
michael's career is just a complete mindfuck i'm not even talking about his music and talent the 'arc' of his life/career in context, not just musical, but cultural & historical, is phenomenal (a word that gets overused, but i mean it in its true sense). so heavy
started with 'off the wall, just put on 'maybe tomorrow'- this is where it really starts to hurt
I'm sorry man but I find that shit totally inappropriate.
There is another time for that discussion to happen.
In fact, it has happened at other times.
People are not just mourning a person, or an artist - and what an artist! - but a part of themselves.
Take that shit, literally, somewhere else; like, the comments section of Huffington Post or something.
i'm not trying to provoke a debate. the title of this thread is rip michael jackson, not "let's talk about mj's music", so i don't find my comment to be inappropriate. and really "inappropriate"???? are we quilting this "thread" into a blanket to send his parents?
it is surprising to me that there is unanimity in celebrating THE MAN without acknowledging who he might have been. that is my point. end of story. carry on.
I am happy to say that NPR ATC has done a remembrance every half hour and they all have been reverential.
At the height of Michael mania someone left a poster on the bus of MJ in a highwater tux. I found it and put it on my wall. Went well with the other kitschy stuff I had. I was an adult. (supposedly.) But it wasn't only kitsch. I loved Michael's music and dancing. In 1980, in Portland, my art rock loving roommates were forced to listen to Off The Wall over and over until they learned to love it. In Seattle my folky friends were forced to listen to Thriller. They were impressed by the Django licks that EVH used in Beat It. Later in Syracuse, my Dead Head co-workers were treated to repeated plays of Bad. I rarely talk to the Seattle or Syracuse folks, but when they heard the news today I am sure they thought of me. I hope they thanked me for letting them know the real.
He almost had a great acting career. His acting abilities were never in question. His business and personal lives never let it happen.

RIP, I don't think I have djed anything in the past few years without playing some MJ and his songs never fail to get shit going, ever.

Are you f*cking serious?
Echoplex... MJ tribute tonight by PB Wolf
and Afro Funke` will be doing a tribute later in there night as well.
Dude, why post that. Not only is it offensive but it's spam for an online casino.
I love Music and that is in no small way because of this man's work. Through it all, Michael, you were loved regardless of whether you knew it or not.
For life

Chill the F*ck out for a minute and reminisce.
MUSIC > HATT.
enjoyed Michael Jackson's music time and time again.
I remember Moonwalker making a big impression on me
Fuk all that moss, dude made some bad ass music to dance, listen and love to.
He will be missed. 1 of the G.O.A.T.
Indeed.
STFU already. This isn't your personal soap box.

Well said. Rest in Peace Michael.
I knew something was up when I tried to get on the board a few hours ago and the strut was shut down... a little surfing and I figured it out.
Grade six, learning how to moonwalk, the silver glove. Thriller, the first music vid that got in my head and stayed there.
RIP Micheal, what a downer.
i had to log on just for this

Would have been great performances.
