Michael Jackson 2

It's always sad that somebody died, but a lot of people died on June 25th, and most of them hadn't contributed to the downfall of popular music with 30 years of commercial, slick, soulless crapola. "The King Of Pop"? Do you always repeat everything some corporate marketer told you you should say?

Dynamic performer and amazing dancer, definitely. So two stars instead of one.

One thing this whole frenzy of analysis has done is make me petrified of what will happen when Madonna passes away. Her music is just as cheap, shallow and commercial as his was, and, she was still sort of relevant beyond 1987!

Can we move on now?
