Michael Jackson died in LA today of cardiac arrest, possibly related to abuse of medication. I will remember him as a guaranteed floor-filler. You could count on the King of Pop to put the girls on the dance floor with any of a dozen songs, certainly more than any other artist.
Whatever anyone will say of him in the next few weeks, you have to admire the talent.
I can’t say I’ll miss him, per se, because we’re at the end of what I see as a long decline for him, with no small amount of scandal and financial trouble. He wasn’t well and I don’t think he was going to manage a come back, but no one could argue other than that a legend has passed.
In other news, Farrah Fawcett also died today. Wow. What a day.
Well said. He had definitely seen his best days. A legend has passed indeed.
Happy Birthday!
