He was so likable.


He was a freak who tried to look like
a white woman. It was guys like him
that gave pedophilia a bad name. ;)

The only good thing about Michael Jackson was that press conference he did where he kept calling somebody,

"Ignorant. He's just ignorant" in that little girl voice of his and stupid hair and clothes.

Watching him on t.v. was better than the sideshow at Ringling Brothers. And it was free. I couldn't listen to that child molesting freak, though I thought he was okay when he was black. I liked "Ben" and "Rockin Robin".

He also pissed me off when he basically ripped off the Beatles catalogue.

I refuse to listen to his music. He whitewashed his entire history, and his face. He drugged children and raped them. There is literally nothing I want to do with his music. Some will say I’m contributing to this thread, like the Anti-NFL’s to the weekly Bender NFL thread, is oxymoronic, but I cannot believe what money and power can allow someone to get away with in this world.

Why don’t we rate the songs of Gary Glitter from top to bottom while we’re at it.

You mean, there are worse songs than “The Girl is Mine?”

If John Lennon were still alive there's no way Paul does that song.

Of course, John still has to answer for Yoko, but that's another story.

Like Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents dinner when he got roasted by Obama and Seth Meyers, Jackson vowed that his next record would not be overlooked. Trump is mentioned something like 13 times in the article; most if not all of the salient info in the article was generated before Jackson died in 2009.

Trump has only been causing Derangement for about the last 15 months he's been on the world stage.

Someone's trying to use Michael Jackson's corpse to flog Trump. Unseemly, and in the end... fake news.

What a waste of time to document and celebrate this sick pervert’s music. Shall we do same with Hastert, Weinstein, etc.?

I’ll always think “Little Red Corvette” by Prince by was way better than any MJ song.

The AAF cover is great...always liked that one.

Here are two covers of Billie Jean I like:

Chris Cornell (from Soundgarden and Audioslave)

The Civil Wars (forward to 1:00 for music)

I only hear a pedophile.

"What idiot would think TOTO may be the worst band in the history of Rock music?"

TOTO is arguably the best assemblage of Rock talent to ever take a stage.

“Hydra” was a great album, it went downhill from there.

And Lukather’s solo on The Tubes’ “Talk To Ya Later” is one of the best solos ever.

David Foster killed Toto, like he killed Chicago.

Mostly a jest, Reno.

He was the great wild Bayou piano player and singer from the rockabilly years, whose story was told in recent years in a movie. Married his young cousin and caused a scandal nearly world-wide.

‘Nuff said.

Most importantly: Rick Bragg wrote his biography! (Humor me.)

I didn’t know that!

No humoring necessary.

I always thought that Bragg, like Lewis, got a raw deal.
