Michael Jackson (1958-2009)

[Retail Fan+ (Justin Hill)]

Today is a sad day in the recording industry. The king of pop has died of a cardiac arrest in a hospital in Los Angeles, CA. He is well known for his songs, "Thriller," "Beat It," "Billie Jean," and "Bad," as well as his Moonwalk dance. He was originally a member of his family's band "The Jackson 5."

Me too. I was immediately shocked when ABC News reported that he died at the hospital in Los Angeles. When I heard the word "dead," I was immediately shocked.

I would like to remember him for his music, not for the scandals.

I chose to do MJ, because he is the King of Pop, and his legacy will live on. If you would like to start a separate article on the death of Farrah Fawcett, go right ahead.

My favorite Michael Jackson memory has to be from July 2007. I was at a bar in Audubon, Pennsylvania. My friend George was on the turntables (okay laptop) and he put on Billy Jean. As soon as he put that song on the attractive female bartender came out and danced with me.:)
