Michael Jackson dies

Sorry if repeat: https://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_obit_michael_jackson

Did he still own the Beatles songs?

He still owned I believe 50%. SONY owns the rest. Basically.

 

[CelticPredator]

Indeed.

But still. Brokeback Jokes are still funny after Ledger died....so...

 

[Luchador138]

Too bad he is gone....but why is this discussion in the General Collectibles area??

This is a combo. of all the post that were posted on the reports I think thats why, there were like 3 reports or threads about 30 min. ago.

Re: Michael Jackson dies

Yeah. You're thread is #4 or 5 I think.

 

[Shropt]

Wow, this was a major shock. So sad.

There were always rumors that followed him in his adult life but no one can say he wasn't legendary and revolutionary.

Ha. Mods can delete please. Sorry

Don't compare Ledger to Jackson.

Ledger can't hold a ^^^^ing candle!

two different planes completely. not even comparable

I believe the comparison was in the jokes being made, not in the two men's legacies.

Re: Michael Jackson dies

I dont see any threads here, why would it get deleted????

Re: Michael Jackson dies

For some reason the mods moved the main thread into General Collectibles.

Besides, isn't arguing over whose death is more important just as much in poor taste as jokes?

 

[sentry118]

Very sad, heart goes out to the families that lost. I honestly thought this would be in the Aliens & Robots thread.

 

[Voorhees27]

People making jokes about people after they pass away are beyond lame.

Exactly! Maybe some will learn when this kind of thing comes to them.

Jokes aside lets all remember him for how badass he really was.

Not only his dance moves I loved as everyone else but there was also something that moved me from the warmth of his music and rhythms and beats.

I can remember as kids, me and my friends/cousins all trying to copy his dance moves... loved his music too.

His later years, we didn't dig so much of his music but eh, tastes change. I still like his older stuff.

I totally dig that song.

rest in peace man.. it's been a long arduous journey.

What is with YouTube, it's really starting to get on my nerves.

Either way, it's tacky and not right. A person passes away. The least you can do is be respectful. I mean would you like someone to make jokes at your family or friend's expense if they passed away? Probably not.

Either way, it's sad news and I am moving along. I also feel for Farah Fawcett's family.

Really??? I could never respect MJ after all those kiddie stories. And his music is way too girly. But now he's a hero.

 

[OSCORP]

I'm betting it was pills, just like Ledger or Anna Nicole some crap like that. I'm sure he was heavily medicated.

Yeah i'm thinking the same thing.

And his music is way too girly. But now he's a hero.

Yup sure!

the man has earned respect. he was revolutionary in the music industry and if nothing else you should respect him as a musician.
