前无古人，后无来者。他使一个时代产生，并且把它推向巅峰。随着他的离去结束了这个时代。
迈克尔.杰克逊，现代音乐史中的奇葩！

Great job, Jeremy!

Who cares. Singer dies, get over it.
RIP: Michael Jackson. A poor, sad, lonely man, of immense talent.
On an entirley separate note, has any one noticed CD has been carrying ads for the Church Of Scientology. (Trade mark acknowledged!) How on earth does that sit with the laws and regulations of China? I thought dangerous cults were a big no, no in China.
your great name never disappears in the world. even the world will be vanished,
my Mj, you has said goodbye us peacefully, but we will miss you, remember you by heart.
