There will never be another
Ominous words...
Sadly we will now never see it.
The rise and fall of Michael Jackson is truly a modern day epic tragedy. But your music, your philanthropy, your kindness touched billions. There will never be another.
Rest in peace Michael.

...Michael Jackson remains an enigma. He is likely a more enigmatic figure today than he was at anytime throughout much-publicized lifetime. Here is a man who transformed from a poor black boy to a rich white woman; a man who transcends the demarcations of race, sex, and age.
...He is likely today the most famous man in the world. To his most devout fans, he’s a messianic figure. To most others, he’s a 46-year old black man trapped in the body of an anorexic white woman’s with a mental age of an 11 year old boy – a freakshow that’s completely lost touch with reality.
Given all his troubles – a scarred reputation, slumping album sales, financial debts – can Jackson rebound? He certainly can.
...So be prepared – I predict MJ will make a comeback, and he’ll be as strong as ever.
Sadly we will now never see it.
The rise and fall of Michael Jackson is truly a modern day epic tragedy. But your music, your philanthropy, your kindness touched billions. There will never be another.
Rest in peace Michael.

Mike
Michael Jackson was an excellent musician and dancer, despite whatever other oddities he had (and he certainly had them). Mother Theresa didn't die here, nor did your grandmother, but I think we can all see a tragedy here nevertheless. He is smybolic of a dying musical era and we can only hope that he will pull a Tupac and release another 5 albums.

Good post Sen! It's funny how everybody has suddenly jumped on the MJ bandwagon again. As if he needed to die to be appreciated. At least you've always supported him - even through the bad times.

I've heard that MJ has a ton of recorded songs saved somewhere, so I'm hoping his family will pull a Tupac (as Mike said) and release it.

RIP MJ.
