What do you guys think about his death? Do you think he had a lot of pressure when he was famous?

The one thing that makes me mad about his death is the fact that since he died everyone is buying up all of his albums. There being bandwagon fans. Its real sad when someone dies and you suddenly decide to be a fan

this is not always true! for exemple i wanted to buy a mj cd before some days but i simply couldnt go to a music store. now im going to buy it after his death. so what? or michael's music wasnt loved by almost everybody?
youd better blame the stores that are now going to rise the prices to his cds because of his death.

I think anyone who is famous has lots of pressure.

I am just sick of the nonstop media coverage of this. I don’t think the assignation of a world leader would get the media coverage that Jackson’s death is getting and I simply don’t understand it.

Was he a real talent? Yes among many other things.. Was the loss tragic?.. well sure it was, but so was the loss of Farrah Fawcett and Ed McMahon but those deaths got a 30 sec mention on the news day of only.

I don’t understand the 24-7 media coverage and have had it with the media in general, all together.

Local and World news!!!!... Bringing Mind control into your living room every night, swaying public opinion in the direction that Governments and large corporations want you…. Don’t even get me started on advertizing…

Sorry about the Rant…..Michael Jackson will be missed…. I just hate having to hear about it every minute of every day….

Well yeah he was a very disturbed person, but what I heard is that he also had a very disturbing childhood. Forced into showbizz at 8...

Don't think he was happy when he died, he might have lived to be happy again, but musically, I don't think he would have produced anything good anymore. He made some great Popmusic though.
It's too bad he died, but death usually isn't pleasant.
