I'm a fan of his. My fave songs of his are Heal The World, We Are The World, Earth Song and You Are Not Alone.. I wish he'd done more songs like that, instead of Thriller, Beat It and Billie Jean..

Yes, I love most of Michael Jackson's music. Naturally the songs where he's singing to girls are a bit much for me, but otherwise, I enjoy his creativity. He was a staple at discos in my primary school years. I even used to be able to do a half-decent moonwalk. But not anymore. I'm too self-conscious.
I have an honest question: I was wondering how the younger generation even gets into music that happened quite a bit before their time?
After all, Thriller dropped in 1982, which was quite some time before many of the posters here were even born.
I guess I'm just asking as someone who never got into the music of the previous generations, but I do realize people are all different. I'm just curious as to what got the younger members here listening to MJ in the first place?
I was never really into his music (I was more into Janet), but I admired MJ as a person because I think he handled the pressure he was under very gracefully, all things considered. I can't imagine what it must have been like living in a fishbowl that the entire world was watching, and the headlines made fun of him no matter what he did. I always felt sorry for him, because no amount of money could buy back his childhood, which he was always mourning the loss of.
When he died, I felt horrible (and still do) for his children. I can't imagine how those poor kids must feel--people can say what they will about MJ but I think he made an earnest attempt to be a good father, and he was obviously his kids' entire world. Now they probably feel as if they can't trust anyone because people will try to use them for the rest of their lives.
I do hope MJ was a believer. Maybe someday we'll all get to meet him.
