Now that he is dead he will be more alive (through his music) than when he was breathing.

Yep!... it's a bit too much..... but what a talent gone to waste.....

Why are all the good artists so eccentric and then die young.... make a list....

Elvis
Buddy Holly

I am not getting off the subject M/J but I would like to mention the fairer sex I think they are amazing!!! we mere males don't stand a chance.

I said in an earlier post about my wife looking in the cupboard and finding the LPs of Michael Jackson she was looking for.

Now when I go looking for things that are in the "cupboard" I usually have to ask my wife where is the thing I am looking for
and the usual response is "its in the cupboard".

Now I could spend a week, a month, a year in that bloody cupboard and still come out empty handed.

Not so the fairer sex!! because when we make that fatal statement "I cant find it" that's when their Amazing ability kicks in.

They walk over reach in and within seconds hands you the item that has eluded you for so long, and as you stand open mouthed they are seemingly spirited away (to fix the car, repair the washing machine "etc" "etc") and their passing comment is

I love this .............................its were you left it...............They are simply Amazing!!! without them where would we be.

Michael ...............here are two to for your list.

Dusty Springfield 1939-1999 aged 59 died of breast cancer............"I Just Don't know What To Do With myself"

Janis Joplin 1943-1970 aged 27 died due to Heroin abuse........."Bobby McGee"

Curt Cobain Nirvana 1967-1994

Delia · June 29, 2009, 10:57:34 AM

Ironic (or subconscious prophecy?) how MJ had dubbed his upcoming concerts "the final curtain"..........

SandyB · June 29, 2009, 01:08:55 PM

Thanks Jr I did a search as to why the name Kurt Cobain came up .. yes Nirvahna and young and tragic death as well ... 28/29 years old ...
Pretty much the same scenario .... but for me it was too much red

Michael Alexander · June 29, 2009, 02:59:26 PM
