He was the King of Pop...and then his heart spontaneously popped...What the hell? It felt like just yesterday he was being put on trial for child molestation and going off to Africa! My parents are so bummed out, it's so depressing. My mom cracked a nut because she couldn't find her MJ Cd while my dad was in the bathroom ranting. Michael Jackson may have been a pedophile, but God knows he's left the greatest footprint on the Pop music scene possible. First we lost Ed McManhon, then Farrah Foster, and now MJ. All in ONE week. Is the Grim Reaper planning the party of the year or something? He took the comedian, the pin up girl, and now our King of Pop! Wtf?

All I have to say is that I'm DEPRESSED. MJ made some of the greatest music possible, I grew up listening to him! My parents are the oldies, 50-80s never dies in my house. It was amazing and awesome! Hell, my mom does the moonwalk in the kitchen! His death was just...so unexpected and an utter shock that it left the nation stunned...he was only a YEAR older than my dad...

My mom and I agree it was prescription drugs. I quote from her:

"mark my words......MJ was given an obscene amount of perscription drugs and the people that circled him led him to his own early death......so sad......I firmly believe that celebrities have a hard time living in reality and these people take advantage of this disconnect and this seems to be the tragedy of bigger than life people................... "

Can you tell she's upset?

Rest in Peace Michael Jackson, forever leaving a print on the song of our hearts...and the music scene.

Lots of love always,
