Forever A Legend
People can say what they want about his personal life but music would not be what it is today without his influence. My first video experience? Thriller. My first ultra-embarrassing dance move attempt? The moon walk. And admit it, we ALL wanted a red jacket with zippers.

Glad I got to see him in concert
We've loved him from the beginning but Im so glad I was able to experience seeing his family reunion tour in NYC Sept 7, 2001. He will continue to bring us many good times. He was a wonderful artist and I still cant believe hes gone to heaven. Kristi L.
06/25/2009 10:46PM

06/25/2009 10:47PM

06/25/2009 11:52PM

The loss of MJ and farrah fawcett makes this a sad day for our country
06/26/2009 12:02AM
Sad Day
What a sad day..the loss of Farrah Faucette first, then the passing od Michael Jackson. God Bless both families and keep both in your prayers.
06/26/2009 12:11AM
R.I.P MJ
I loved his music. I was really shocked when I fount out. R.I.P Michael Jackson.
06/26/2009 6:30AM
So Sad
I was so sorry to hear about Micheal. He was a great singer. Now that he is gone I think everyone should concentrate on his life and music and lets not forget his kids. He was truly a icon. I will really miss him and his music
06/26/2009 7:04AM
Controversy
Michael Jackson had a very controversial past. I do not think that anyone should decide whether he was a star or not because of that. God will make that judgement the fact is that he was very talented and everyone enjoyed his music at some point in time or another. He will be missed and my thoughts and prayers are definitlely with his family. I hope he will finally be a peace.
06/26/2009 7:18AM
Now He Is At Peace
I am the same age as Michael so I lived his career from the Jackson 5 and through my daughter with Thriller. He was a genius and a talent like no other will ever be. He was unfairly persecuted but was vindicated in the last few weeks when the world showed they still loved him by selling out his upcoming concerts in minutes. You are loved Michael and now you will be Missed. Thank you for the gift of music and dance, and love you gave the world. These upcoming days will be sad, but you live on forever. GOd Bless your family.
06/26/2009 7:44AM
STAR
Michael Jackson was a star! Everyone has controversy but that doesn't change the fact that he was a star or for that matter The King of Pop!! There will never be another one like him and the music industry will never be the same! My prayers are with Michael's family along with Farrah Fawcett and Ed McMahon's family's. What a sad week in the Entertainment Industy. :-(
06/26/2009 8:20AM
Hair and dance
I always wanted Farrah's hair and to be able to dance like Micheal. Sad day in or time! I loved the THRILLER album...He was just great and will be missed.
06/26/2009 8:21AM
:(
He was one of the best singers in history, the world wouldn't be the same without him. R.I.P.
06/26/2009 8:26AM
RIP Micheal Jackson King of Pop
There will never be another thriller as there will never be another Micheal Jackson. Today, Music will never be the same. We will miss you Micheal Jackson
06/26/2009 8:27AM
The fallen stars
This week alone there has been so many deaths in the entertainment industry and even if we dont know the people personally it still hits home pretty hard. My prayers are with all the familes between Micheal, Farrah, and Ed McMahon. They will always be remembered as legends that made us feel as if we could do anything in the world that we want to. It just goes to show that no matter who you are famous, rich, or not life is precious and needs to be treated as such. R.I.P Micheal Farrah and Ed. I love you all
06/26/2009 8:30AM
RIP
I always enjoyed Micheal Jacksons music.He will be remebered for years to come. He is at peace. :-(

Memories of my Youth
Memories of a time past in my life, when all things were possible and I was young and thought I would conqueor the world. You couldn't walk down the street without hearing an MJ song. He's with God now.
06/26/2009 8:39AM
M.J.-HE WAS MUSIC!!!
Michael Jackson was without a doubt the biggest influence on music than ANY other star to walk this earth! From soul, pop, to hip-hop his influence is present. My music is def influenced by him! The most famous man in the world has passed and will be greatly missed! Millions of tears are being shed! It amazes me the impact this man had...I am in AWE!!! Rest in peace Mike...your mark is made! To the family...celebrate his life he wouldn't want us to stay stuck on the fact he's dead! Love is in the air!
06/26/2009 8:43AM
RIP
You WILL be MISSED!!! I can remember doing cheerleading dances to Beat It and PYT..back in the ole 80's....Man You were the BEST!!
06/26/2009 8:51AM
I still love ya!
I am always shocked to hear of someone famous passing, but I was truly saddened with this one, I grew up with Michael's music and he is a legend and although he may have done some strange things, it always gets me how we talk about other people and the bad they've done, but some of us need to take a step back and look at ourselves before we talk. I will miss Michael dearly!
06/26/2009 8:58AM
The one person to ALWAYS make you dance
Michael Jackson was truly larger than life and an inspiration to me. I grew up in the 80's and had every pin for my jean jacket and danced to his music a whole lot. I will miss you Michael!!!
06/26/2009 8:59AM
I agree with I still Love ya!!!
Three icons in the entertainment industry were lost this week and it's very sad even if you don't know them personally. Many of us have grown up watching these people and enjoyed their talents. What I think is even sadder is the people who pass judgement when they really don't know all of the details. That was just an ignorant comment about the boy scouts being safer. If that's all you have to contribute, don't waste our time.
06/26/2009 9:19AM
ICON
It is sad to lose such an influentual icon to music. He set the stage for alot of the artist today, and he will be missed but never forgotten. I am saddened by the lose, because he introduced me to dancing and to that form of hip hop. I will always bea fan of Micheal Jackson, and my condolences go out to his family. We love you Micheal.... HEEE, HEEE
06/26/2009 9:26AM
SAD
We don't trully value what we have till it's gone...
06/26/2009 9:31AM
Reflect on the good
At a time like this we should focus on all the positive things he did. His music was great, he was truly talented and he will be missed. He was more than just an ICON he was the "King of Pop" RIP Michael
06/26/2009 10:12AM
What about the other GREATS???
What about all the other great stars that died this week? Farrah & Ed, ever since Michael Jackson died they had been forgotten!! He was a freak and he hasn't had anything out in over 20 years.It is a loss for many but dont forget about the courageous battle with cancer that Farrah fought!!! She was the real hero!!!
06/26/2009 10:48AM
Get Over It
Some people really need to get a grip. Of course more people died than just Michael Jackson this week but those where expected. Everyone knew Farrah was going to die and she did fight a good battle for the past 3 years. Ed had lived a good life but he was not in good health. Michael was truly a shock. No one seen this one coming. He has been around for 47 years or more and he was truly a one of a kind and who are we to judge him for what he was accused of. We are not his judge or jury only God is. Let the man rest in peace and if you do not have anything good to say than don't say anything at all. And as for the Boy Scout remark that was completly uncalled for. I hope your own backyard is clean before you do messing in other peoples. Think about his family they are the ones suffering now and his poor kids. Rest in Peace Micheal you will be truly missed you were the KING OF POP!!!!!!!!!
06/26/2009 10:52AM
Legend
So many people have mixed views on actors and singers alike. Too many view their personal lives more than the music or films they star in. It's about their talent, that is what we've come to know and love them for, they gained our respect from great performances but too many people change views after seeing them off stage or off the big screen. He was the icon of pop. Thats what he should be remembered for. Nothing less.

Moonwalking for Michael's Memory

06/26/2009 11:36AM
King Of Pop! Live On Forever!
WOW! So many words but dont know how to say them! As i watch BET this morning it is still not real to us that he is dead! but he will forever live on in our souls and hearts! he is the king of pop and that will never die! may you R.I.P M.j! dead but never gone or forgotten!!!!!!!!!!!!!
06/26/2009 12:04PM
An Asian Girl from Saginaw, TX
The pass is the pass. So everyone needs to let it go. Overall, only one person will judge Michael. My prayers are with the Jackson Family. Michael will never be forgotten and he shall live thru his music for generations to come! Forever a fan!
06/26/2009 12:59PM
R.I.P. Michael
I grew up listening to Michael and I was getting my son to appreciate the kind of music that I grew up on. The first CD that I bought for him was Thriller. I just can't believe that he is gone. He will always be missed very dearly and maybe now he can finally rest in peace. Michael you will always be the king of pop.
06/26/2009 1:10PM
Leave Micheal alone already!~!
All the people who are doing nothing but leaving mean and ignorant messages about Mcheal should just leave him alone already. This is for his fans to grieve and share good thoughts about him and give our condolonces to his family and fans!! I pretty sure that all of you that are passing judgement are NOT free of sin or mistakes. And if all you can do is waste our time with your stupid remarks then you need to go to church and ask for pentinence. Micheal may have been emotionally unstable but you cn never take away all the good that he has done in his lifetime. LET THE MKING OF POP REST IN PEACE FOR ONCE!!!! Your fans will always love you Micheal and you will always be remembered!~!~ Love you always and forever a fan !! ;)
06/26/2009 1:23PM
The best there was
He was truley the best performer put there. I loved all his songs and videos. It saddens me that he passed away. RIP MR. Jackson you will be missed.
06/26/2009 2:14PM
Sick for a while?
I have noticed that he has looked really pale for a while now.
06/26/2009 2:35PM
King of Pop
I couldn't practice the moon walk enough when I first saw it and then when I was able to do it all the kids in school were so jealous. Thanks Michael for the memories of new dance moves and pop music that was the best.
06/26/2009 2:43PM
King of Pop
It seems to me that some people think their so perfect. M.J. was a bright young man. He made something of himself and a life. We all make mistakes. What have you done with your life? and you know who I'm talking too! He has paid for what has happened. From one of your oldest fans. RIP MJ>
06/26/2009 3:53PM
king of what
He was a child molester.When the world found out you turned your backs on him. Now all of a sudden since he has passed away he is now a hero. that is bullshit.
06/26/2009 4:12PM
Best of the Best
The title says it all. He was the BEST and there will never be anyone that can do what MJ has done. He will be greatly missed. His music lives on. RIP Michael.
06/26/2009 4:44PM
The King
MJ, thanks for bringing something extra to the music industry. Any good musician can appreciate your contributions. May you RIP, regardless of what your critics think because you WILL be missed!
06/26/2009 4:53PM
Feels Like a Bad Dream
I am still in a daze since hearing about Michael's death yesterday. I just feel like this is some bad dream and I am waiting to wake up and hear that he is fine. -Meg-
06/26/2009 6:44PM
The King Of Pop
I am and will always be a number one fan of the late Michael Jackson. He has set standards in the music industry that no other singer could uphold. Michael, you will be missed very much so and may you RIP.
06/26/2009 7:13PM
The one and only king
I remember in second grade i had the biggest crush on michael jackson. I send him and his family love and condolences. R.I.P; King of All music
06/26/2009 7:14PM
Thanks
Thanks for all the great music MJ. A true music legend, your life was cut too short.
06/26/2009 7:15PM
HE WAS A$$ H@!!
He hurt little kids. And people miss him.
06/26/2009 8:12PM
rest in peace
Rest in peace you child molester. Do let the fire burn your butt.
06/26/2009 10:40PM
RIP
I couldn't believe it until this morning. So sad, what a tragedy.
06/26/2009 11:47PM
??? To rest in peace ???
Did M.J. moleste you as a child? Unless, you know from first hand experience, I would not make such comments. We only knew the performing artist and all can agree that he was GREAT at his job. To judge his personal life is unsuitable and especially ata time like this. God Bless the family and I hope that they will not be subjected to this kind of ignorance.
06/27/2009 12:00AM
Get a clue...
I'm sure his family, children and friends miss him. We didn't know him. I still have the same things I had before-the music, videos etc. But it is a shame that anyone loses their life at such a young age. Oh-and I agree with the fact that to claim such things that "he hurt kids" etc. is ignorant.
06/27/2009 12:01PM
R.I.P
I still can't beleive he was sent to heaven already. I loved his music and he was a great artist. His memory will always live on. My condolences go out to his family and friends.
06/27/2009 3:34PM
D*:
its like a nightmare nobody can wake up from. he will be missed.

Hooray for VH1 and MTV
They have done such a wonderful job at a tribute for M.J. this weekend. Video after video, really brings back memories. Very talented artist. Rumor has it that he has recorded 100 songs for his children to be published only after his death. So we still have a lot of great things to look forward to from Michael I know we will all buy the cds to help the children.
06/28/2009 1:09PM
107.5 Rocks
This station has also done a great job honoring Michael. Look forward to Murphy's show Monday. Josh & Katie done a great job Friday-sending our love to you! How about playing some songs from M.J.'s "Bad" and "Dangerous" cd. We could use more Michael. Thanks!
06/28/2009 4:10PM

Plastics is easy to make a replica of! Also, how did his family not know anything about anything, but this Dr. just walked in and found him? why would his Dr. be there? All of this isn't adding up

The man died and you should be ashamed of yourself. If you can't say anything nice on here don't say anything at all. May his family find peace in the love that they lost here on earth. He will forever live in your hearts. To his kids I hope that they find peace and I hope they ignore some things that they hear about their father. He loved them. Michael you and your music will be greatly missed. My favorite part about you was your dancing....I loved to watch you dance....RIP Michael

07/06/2009 10:38AM
wtf
he is such a weirdo
07/07/2009 9:04AM
MISSING YOU
I grew up lisening to Michael Jackson music. I consider him one of the world's 7th wonders. He will truly be missed.
07/07/2009 4:39PM
5th Grade Contest
I remember all the girls in the 5th grade arguing over who was the best entertainer. All the black girls said Michael, and the white girls were split between Donnie Osmond & David Cassidy. I am white, but am also a dancer. Nobody can touch Michael's dancing, so I had to go against my race and support Michael. I would practicing dancing while I watched the Jackson 5 show every week.
07/07/2009 11:20PM
you will truley be missed and never forgotten!
Michael has been a huge inspiration in my life...I love to dance and everytime his music comes on im on the dance floor. He taught us to believe in ourselves and to never give up and to fight for what you want. Michael has the biggest heart anyone could ever have...people need to remember all the good things he did in this world, like his charities, his music that made everyone smile and dance, his love for making children happy and smile. I didnt have much of a childhood and that can affect you in the long run, so i kinda understand how michael felt. He was a true blessing and an amazing gift from GOD and he is now resting in heaven with no more worries!!!! We love you Michael Jackson. You will never be forgotten...your music will live on forever and ever!!! Rest In Peace!!!
07/09/2009 11:55AM
Entertainer
Grant it he was a great entertainer; But he was still a troubled soul that took advantage of innocent children.There is no forgiving that.
07/09/2009 5:13PM
RIP MJ! MISS YOU!
HE WAS A GREAT ENTERTAINER! STOP HATING ON HIM! LET HIM REST IN PEACE!! ONLY MJ AND GOD KNOW THE TRUTH AND THAT IS ALL THAT MATTERS! THANK YOU MICHAEL! GOD BLESS YOU!!
