Agreed - A musical genius, but highly eccentric.

The one act in his life which seemed to sum him up completely is well observed in this lyric by Warren Zevon (who died aged 56) from "Splendid Isolation":

Michael Jackson in Disneyland
Don't have to share it with nobody else
Lock the gates, Goofy, take my hand
And lead me through the World of Self

Saludos,
Bob.

I Like What Chris Rock Said - Prince Won!

Oh and my picture of him ... available in a number of different colours ... LOL

It is very sad to see such a great talent wasted and destroyed by mental problems. I suspect they will find his death related to drugs. Very sad to see that those closest to him enabled him to destroy himself.

Nice pic JA, now maybe you can do one of him before the plastic surgies started ?

And lets not Forget Ed McMahon and Farrah Fawcett, 2 other great talents also lost this week.

JA, how about a pic of ED and Farrah too ?

It is really unfortunate that Farrah's death is getting so little attention. Her battle against rectal cancer is IMHO, a much more deserving story and one that could potentially save lives.

Totally agree.

Yet more attention seems to go to a less deserving pedophile!

R.I.P. Farrah
