oh my god noooo!!!! michael jackson just died!

I am shocked and sad. I grew up listening to his songs when he was so famous with "Beat it"... I always remember the movie, "Ben" and oh, there were so many... Condolences to his family, friends and fans out there. May his soul rest in peace and same goes to Farah Fawcett...

Hey Opal, This is a real shocker to me also. I am 51 years old, and I feel as though he and I grew up together. I used to watch him on TV, the Flip Wilson show I think it was. I'm still hoping that it's a rumor, but I will stay tuned to the radio to see how and why. We just never know when it's our time, do we? With Farrah we knew it was possible that she might pass, but with Michael it's so sudden.

OMG i have been laughing and crying all day. i am so hurt i just can't believe it. i am remembering all great times we had dancing to his music. the glove, and just everything Michael. what a sad day in the history books today. what a very sad day

I will get my 57th next April thanks to God I got a little bit longer life, I got much sweet memories with Michael's song: Ben, You are not alone, we are the world, black and white, beat it etc., everyone love him so that I am sure God will also love him too, yes he will be never able replaced, his talent is specific, the way he dance and his voice is very, very special uncomparable and genuine! pls accept my condolence

Well, I will put my 2 cents in to. It was such a shock to hear about Michaels passing. I loved his early music but I didn't like his new stuff in the 2000's. I knew that someday something would happen to him just by the way he took all those medications. And from what his father did to him to. I was more upset by Farrahs passing. She was in so much pain, and she never complained once. All she had was hope the whole time. I don't know if I would ever be that strong. And poor Ryan O'neal. He has loved her for over 30 years. I pray for their son Redmond, that he will straighten out and not lose his father to. But you never know if Ryan's lukemia will come back. I pray not. I grew up with Farrah, watching her in Charlie's Angels, and all her movies.She was such a wonderful actress and caring person. Now she is with the real angels out of pain, and with her beautiful hair. I have a confession. I had a Farrah due to back then!!

I am STILL in SHOCK!!! THRILLER will FOREVER BE!!! I'm about to go fire up mine on the record player, that's right, I said RECORD PLAYER:)

Hi Opal! It sounds really unbelievable that the great singer is no more and he left the music world at the age of 50. He was great performer and star. We are also feeling sad on his passing away. I was also a fan of Michael Jackson and I loved to listen to his songs in the yesteryears. I liked all his songs and it is difficult to single out a song. He was a magician and wonderful singer with so much variation in his voice. Once he came to India on a tour and his concerts were huge hits with Indians.

my son was watching his videos on all the music stations all day. he was trying to catch his favorite which was the one with Eddie murphy in it dressed like a pharoa. called "Do you remember the time" my personal favorite was "the man in the mirror" which was about how we should help and care for others all around the world. both micheal and farrah were very caring people. more than many thought.

I remember when I was really young I watched his concert in Bucharest, during the dangerous tour. I watched it on t.v., never saw him live. But I always loved it. I actually recently bought it on dvd, so I could watch it whenever I want. He was an amazing singer, dancer, and all around artist. He will be greatly missed.

Im 64 and I have seen people come and go, but no one is never prepare or ready for this kind of things it shocks us into reality [ for a while] at least. It just make me think that don't matter what, money or not we are all going the same way. Michael was a great dancer and I have dance to his songs a lot of times. I send a prayer for Farah, and Michael may both Rest In Peace, they will for ever be in our lounge room, partys, and video nights.

It is really disturbing to hear that Micheal Jackson is no more.......I just switched on the NEWS this afternoon to see this news flashing.....i was not able to believe it for a second, but then he was gone......he was truly a legend.....who gave us amazing hits like blood on the dance floor, and my all time favorite "Heal the world" it has so much of meaning in it and i still love to listen to that song....but destiny can take a person anywhere.....I have been listening to his songs right from when i was small......and his dance moves cannot be forgotten, the grace with which he danced was simply amazing.......i don't think anyone can match to his standards......... Well, may his soul rest in peace !!!!

I remember listening to Micheal Jackson throughout my life, regardless of what the media would say about him.. He was a great artist, like they said the The King of Pop.. Micheal had a style all of his own, I will still listen to his music.. It reminds me of some good times.. And there is a lot of his music I can relate too.. I will miss him.. Micheal Rest in Peace

It's really sad.. He really do a lot of wonderful things in the music industry and every people love him. But there's a fact that all of us will come to an end. Maybe his mission is already done, now he is with the Father. Goodbye Mj.

Hi im new to mylot this is my first post. I grew up listening to Michael Jackson and dancing to it in front of the TV. He is a very under estimated artist just view the lyrics of "they dont really care about us." His music will live forever in the hearts of the young and old alike. He was more than a man he was a legend.

Very sad indeed the world lost two of the most popular public figures that has rocked the entertaining world within hours. Though MJ had many controversial issues behind his popularity, his passing is a great lost to the millions of his fans. At 50, it is too young for him to die. The world mourn the loss of these wonderful entertainers.

I saw Michael Jackson perform in Wembley Stadium in London many years ago and what a performer! He was absolutely brilliant. There were people there from small children to grandparents and he stunned everyone with his brilliant performance. He was due to do another tour soon and he will be sadly missed. - Derek

The news was devastating to millions who loved Michael Jackson and followed his career, Opal. My first reaction to the news was disbelief, followed by a deep grief for his children, his family, and all of us who loved him. Farrah will also be terribly missed by her loyal fans and loved ones. Two bright stars have gone out.

Hello Opal, This is such sad news . We lost the king of pop who was oh so very gifted in many ways. There will never be another him , and he also had a big heart , and helped heal the world . I wish people would let him rest in peace and remember the good , and not what he was accused of. He was a father, a son, a bother, and an icon. He will be missed! but his music will live on! I grew up with him myslef and had a poster, music, and even wrote a fan letter to him . when i heard of his passing a flood came rushing back of the carefree Mj days of me and my bro singing and dancing.

He was a very important person in my life. I adored his album Thriller because it was published in a period I was really happy. It's terrible!

i'm not a fan of micheal jackson but i love his some music. and i guess his health was not good and its good for him to be rest in peace. so that he will never suffer the pain that he felt.R.I.P
