Jackson Danced and Sang Last Night

16. people should remember the person that the rediculed, now all of a sudden people want to say good things about him....the stress and the life he HAD to live becaue of the things said...where were you then?:...in the mist of all of it... WE as a CULTURE sould have had his back,never left him alone and played his music then with his video's, now we're so heartbroken, people can remember "WHAT" WHEN us as BLACKS and WHITES" not believing in his time of need and allowing him to move over sea's to live as a memory....ALL people should be true, even in one's death...WHITE or BLACK, i see all his video's now,that i had not seen ever on "BET" and some i've not seen sence a child... NOW THAT HE HAS PASSED! that's all that is playing, i guess he would appreciate it if he did'nt have to die to see it! Or what ever after life has for us....IT'S JUST A SHAME THAT YOU HAVE TO DIE BEFORE YOU OR ANYONE ENJOYS IT!!!!!!

17. It just goes to show you what a slippery slope we all walk. Last night, at this time, he was rehersing, dancing, singing, going about his normal daily activities and tonight....well, you get the picture. He could have never imagined that before the sun set on the next day, his life on this earth would be over. That within a mere 24hours time, he'd be lying stone cold dead in a mourge. I hope he didnt suffer and I hope he has found his peace. I hope that all who read this think about how easily and quickly the earth can shift...and maybe do today what they have been waiting to do tommorow. Call your mom, tell your brother you love him, give your spouse a hug.

All things considered, he was a human being, and the loss is unmeasurable now. I am mewed up to my heavens this evening praying for the guidance of hs soul to our heavenly father, praying that his family find some peace and solace during this hard time, and thanking the Good Lord for giving me one more day to spend on this planet with my loved ones.

God be with us all now and always.

WE as a CULTURE forgot that....now all of a sudden i hear music with the video's that i have'nt seen sense i was a child. BLACKS and WHITES ridiculed him and contributed to his move over sea's...STRESS and HEALTH problems played a role..people shuned him talking about him and the monkey years ago, he had BUBBLES...then.... STRESS can kill,no one in the united states supported him anymore for the eyes to see...now i see video's on" BET", songs on the radio...I GUESS HE WOULD APPRECIATE IT..if he would not have had to pass to see it!!!!!!!, WE NEED TO REALLY TRIBUTE AND APPRECIATE PEOPLE BEFORE THEIR PASSING, not after!

19. I do not really belive Michael Jackson had it in him to hurt anyone..... I think he had a very different outlook on life due to the way he was raised.( no, I do not think that outlook included molesting boy) He carried a huge burden from a very young age and it in part shaped who he was as a man. Michael was never a "normal" kid he was treated as an oddity, shoud it suprise us he grew up to be far from what we consider "normal"?

Three children lost a father today and I hope, although foolishly, that they are able to remember him as just that- their father.

May Michael Jackson find peace and may he dance forever......

22. I grew up watcing Michael Jackson become over the years the man that had endured so much negativity. Tonight I went on "you Tube" and showed my daughter his music and video's. Then we began talking about how he seemingly was talking to us through his music. The MEDIA was a huge negative aspect that he was frustrated by........all the criticism. If he truly was as sensitive as I am hearing on TV tonight then his video SCREAM makes perfect sense or a good portrayal of his frustration. Then after all the allegations and trials from the "child molestations" the unthinkable stress that that gave him....to me makes perfect sense as to why he became more of a "hermit." He started dying inside and that impacted his creativity and ultimately impacted his music. At least he had 3 children that love him and he at least knew that all 3 children loved Michael unconditionaly. For the last few years he spent and lost a tremendous amounts of reported money. BUT, think of all the greedy people that took him to courtonly wanting his money .......if those reporst ring true. He was a sad & lonely man....incredibly gifted and knowledgeable beyond his years. He did find love in his family and most important than all of them his 3 innocent children. My heart really goes out for his kids!I am happy that he is resting in peace and I hope and pray that whom ever gains custody of his children will look out for their safety and futures. God Bless all of his family and true friends. RIP......Michael..............from a lomgtime FAN.

24. Michael never lied, he was who he was, he was a child at heart who never had a childhood, so he wanted to offer kids what he never had, but could afford to give with his money and affluence. Anybody can appear to be weird, but he wasn't and people thought he was only because the tabloids called him wacko jacko, always photgraphing him in public with the surgical mask and HYPED up everthing he did.. he wasn't faised by it, but was hurt by the nick name. I know his pain, i've experience this same kind of ridicule, but also learned that the only people who make fun of you, wish they were you, because you have extrodinary talents and money or fame, so it was it is. Micheal was talented, shy, a flamboyant entertainer, but most of all a man with a childs heart an one who so badly just wanted love. When your closes freinds and family (dad) don't give you that love, you find it in the streets and he did, just like myself, so I understand and identified with him. It can be lonely at the top, but even lonelier at the bottom (your own backyard). I called michael on the phone once and I was a young girl, but a clever one. He was playing the Front row theatre in Cleveland, Ohio, the well known theatre in the round with a revolving stage that hosted many big name head liners like Sammy Davis jr. who I also saw in person there and got a close glimps of. I called the theatre in the afternoon the day of the night of the Jacksons concert and I pretended to be an overseas asian operator and I asked for Katherine Jackson, Michael's mom and hands on close companion at the time. She came to the phone, to my astonishment and then put Michael on the phone cause she believed the call was safe and legit. I said Michael and he said yes and I said OMG hi, this is Tena and he said hi and then he said "do we know each other " and I said no, but we will after the concert, then my girlfriend screamed and he hung up. I will never forget it and I know to this day I got further than any teenaged OBSESSED fan could have ever gotten back in the day. I have other close up and personal experiences with him and would love to share them,but today my heart is broken and my mind is in a state of what the heck, are you serious, I don't believe it SHOCK... Janet, if iI saw you now, I would hold you,cause I know you are the one just dying inside with shock, pain, and disbelief. I know you love Michael like crazy and always stood by him no matter what. That's what sisters should do, and taurus girls, loyal to a fault do. I love you girl, I loved Michael and my heart is breaking now also. Be strong and no matter what comes next, you are not alone, Micheal left me to watch your back like you watched his. If anytime you need to talk about him or this, i'm sure your people will seek me out and kind me. God bless you and yours, nothing but love for you, stay strong and fierce. Again I honestly don't know what to say, i'm stunned... Tena Dunne

26. MICHAEL JACKSON 25.6.09 - DANCING WITH ANGELS

Posted at 6:30AM on Jun 26th 2009 by thebizzo

27. I was at the rehearsal as well Wednesday night. The TRUTH is he was at Staples Center well before he hit the stage. He was in in good spirits and seemed normal, lucid and well composed when I spoke to him right before the sound check and subsequent rehearsal at 10pm!!! MJ did not hit the stage earlier because he was reviewing the new changes to his big screen video giving his input and listening to other production professionals on how to cut the video. That meeting lasted about an hour or so. He then went to his dressing room to prepare to rehearse while the band, dancers and crew took a half hour or so break. I stand 100% behind this statement, but due to the surreal nature of this monumental day I just witnessed from inside Staples Thursday, I wish to remain anonymous until the shock wears off. No B.S. here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

28. Jackson's own lawyer and family spokesperson, Ben Oxman is basically saying that certain members of the family, including himself, were very concerned about the amount of prescription pills Michael was taking to manage pain for various previous injuries, and who knows what else but that he was surrounded by enablers. Could this be Elvis redux?

29. I LOVED MICHAEL JACKSON WHEN I WAS YOUNGER AND UP UNTIL THE TIME HE TURNED INTO A FREAK. HE PAVED THE WAY FOR OUR MUSIC TODAY AND HE WILL BE MISSED. IF THIS WAS CAUSED BY DRUG ABUSE THEN IT HAS TAKEN ANOTHER STAR. WHEN WILL THEY LEARN TO GET HELP.
