I'm just about sick to death of the whole crap going on over this. He turned into some damn freak show weirdo and that's the reality here. It was sad to see that happening. He had a terrible psychiatric injury no doubt but honestly, he could have should have sought help for that instead of self medicating. And those around him who enabled that mess, including his family, should just stfu now. After the Motown 25th he became a dance hack doing the same thing over and over and marching around the stage because he had no more new moves. He got all sneery and angry and "bad" because he stopped being a forrunner and started being a desperate fan keeper in the face of the mean spirited, wothless gangster crap. And his video of the "new" show proves that he was about to go out there with more self indulgent same-old-moves that people lap up and pay for. Good for him, good for his pocket, but nothing new really.

Do I think he did important things? Yes. Then he flaed out long ago. And those poor kids! OMG. Someone needs to rescue them.

Sorry to be so neg on MJ, but I'm just sickened by the non-stop display over the airwaves. Its just become a gratuitus ratings-getting activity with no new "news" at all.

Sorry, I never thought highly of him at all. Didn't like his music, and absolutely hate the deification to which some people are elevating him.

I saw the same shit when Elvis died on the toilet back in 1977.

I did watch part of the memorial and it was more fitting than I thought it was going to be. Well done for the part I saw.
