Michael Jackson
I'm sorry, but I am a fan. I think it is sad that I have to apologize for being a fan of the best musical entertainer of all time. His personal and legal troubles aside, he defined a generation... my generation. Those of you who were teenagers when Michael hit his stride remember him fondly. We try to remember the Michael that turned MTV on it's head and danced and sang his way into our hearts. He is part of our collective consciousness. When a person dies, any person, the bad things they did tend to fall away and only the good stands out. So it will be with Michael. We can forget how Elvis, Jim Belushi, and Marilyn Monroe died and remember their work. So it will be eventually with Michael. His wierdness will always be there, but it is for his musical legacy he will always be remembered. RIP MJ.
