Michael J.
The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side. — Hunter S. Thompson
Madaming masasabi tungkol kay Michael na hindi kanais-nais. Madami din magagandang katangian tungkol sa kanya na hindi maitatanggi. Subalit sa akin, isa siya sa kahanga-hangang bituin na sumikat mula ng isang bata pa lamang.
Sa kanyang pagsasayaw lamang, hanggang sa ngayon madami pa ding natuto at gumagaya sa kanya tulad nila Usher, Justin Timberlake at ang batang si Chris Brown. Ang kanya namang mga sumikat na awitin ay nakaka-aliw pakinggan hanggang sa ngayon.
Ang huling balita ay kakaunti na lamang daw ang natitira niyang kayamanan. Ang isa sa mga dahilan nito ay ang mga malalaki niyang ginagastos sa mga abogado na pinagtatanggol ang mga kasong isinasampa laban sa kanya. Isa ding dahilan ay ang pagkalaking gastos sa pangangalaga ng kanyang Neverland Ranch sa California.
Kung ano man ang tunay na katutuhanan sa mga balitang ito, pakiramdam ko ay sa hanggang ngayon madami pa din siyang tagahanga na tatangkilik sa kanyang concert tour sa buong mundo. Kanya sa tingin ko, wala pa din siyang problema pagdating sa pera.

A fellow blogger, niceheart, posted a very interesting entry entitled, "The Timeless Music of Michael Jackson," on her blogsite, Journey to Honeyville @ http://niceheart.blogspot.com/2006/01/timeless-music-of-mj.html
Nice sketch!
Thanks for the info!
I want to share with you and your readers the comment I posted on Niceheart's blog post about Michael's timeless music:
I remember the night he blew everyone away with his performance of Billie Jean on a tribute to Motown TV special. As I sat there riveted, all I could think of was his strength, intelligence and power to have conquered the music industry. He literally had it on its knees. And by the time he went out to conquer the world, the music industry was hailing him as the King of Pop. He was a master strategist. A genius.
From that night on, as he went on to captivate the public on a global scale, that same power that catapulted him to greatness, unfortunately, also intoxicated him. Madness ensued.
There are many great songs he has, but the most poignant and haunting, as well as the one that reveals his inner self, his soul, his alienation from the world that once adored him is "Human Nature."
MJ is a true but mad artist.
Jonty, you are are very talented artist. Ang galing!
Thank you, Eric, for the recommendation.
