The KING OF POP har avlidit



Chockerande rubrik i Los Angeles Times idag:
Michael Jackson
1958-2009.




Michael Jackson, världens störste manlige popartist har avlidit.
Stor sorg i populärmusikvärlden. Även jag, musikfanatisk gammal gube sörjer.
Han var störst. Han var fantastisk! Oslagbar på den manliga pop-sidan.
Michael Jackson med "Thriller" = oslagbart. Jag har den i min mp3-spelare (för motionsbruk); jag tar aldrig bort den; never, det är en evig musikpärla.

Los Angeles Times: "Michael Jackson was fascinated by celebrity tragedy. He had a statue of Marilyn Monroe in his home. He bought the publishing rights to Buddy Holly's songbook and studied the sad Hollywood exile of Charlie Chaplin. He married the daughter of Elvis Presley.Jackson met his own untimely death Thursday at age 50, and more than any of those past icons, he left a complicated legacy. As a child star, he was so talented he seemed lit from within; as a middle-aged man, he was viewed as something akin to a visiting alien who, like Tinkerbell, would cease to exist if the applause ever stopped.".

Rekomendation: Los Angeles Times idag ser ut att berätta mest och bäst om den Store.

Madonna, drottningen sägs gråta.
