rip mj. there will never be another pop legend in my lifetime

sorry f list, but i just gotta. skip if you want.

i don't even understand what i'm feeling right now. it's not like i knew the guy, he wasn't family, he wasn't the pope, he didn't have political influence, he was just a really talented guy who lucked out and experienced a most phenomenal career. he made albums that i listened to, some great music

omg idk what happened to all the iran fetishists over on ontd_p, these ppl were SOO into it yet no one is posting about it anymore on there. idgi D:

anyway MJ!!! the douchey FB messages piss me off, have some damn respect people! he was an important and influential figure irregardless of his personal issues.

i mean the guy was a little fucked up. that can't be denied. but some folks on FB are getting out of hand. the regular news is starting to piss me off too, trying to tie in his financial matters into the shit economy? reporters immediately asking if it was drug related. wtf? why is his death an opportunity to give him flack? so you wait until he dies to give him shit? what fucking pussies.

you wouldn't attend a funeral and start talking about how much of a shit so and so was. but i guess because he was famous/infamous it's totally okay?

i don't understand the need for 24hr news coverage on this! they're not going to find out anything new until the autopsy results come in .. in 6-8 weeks!!! D:

exactly! the bad things that happened in his life shouldn't overshadow the good contributions he gave to music and the entertainment industry.

Amen.

So much Amen.

An exponential amount of Amen.

I think everyone was pulling for him to come out with some groundbreaking new album before he hung it up forever, you know? I don't even care for his music any more because I'm tired of hearing it, but I still wanted to hear what his music would be like with modern instruments. He was supposedly working on a new album, so maybe there's new unreleased stuff?

[its_prurience]

maybe. but seriously, dangerous was an awful album. so i wasn't really looking forward to any new material. i never thought he really had a future as a musical artist, but that he'd just be there for me like an old friend.
