idk what people are saying on facebook, but I think there's always been interest in him! Positive or not. I mean he was going to do 50 shows in London, I don't even want to think about the millions that would get him.
My own shock at his death comes from the fact that, well, dude's always been around. It's weird to lose a living legend. I knew he was sick, but it's hard to take some reports seriously. Patrick Swayze, anyone? The tabloids are almost counting down to when the poor guy finally gives in to his cancer. So yeah. Maybe Jackson's recent ailments have nothing to do with today's cardiac arrest, but it's still tough to wrap your head around. I actually happened to be listening to him a lot more this year for some reason. I love the Free Willy soundtrack, okay? But I also became a fan of 'Man In the Mirror', 'Human Nature', and even fake!MJ singing 'Happy Birthday, Lisa' in an episode of The Simpsons. If you're into music, you probably know lots of his songs, and if you're not living under a rock, you've probably heard something of his personal issues.
Besides, never a better time to finally blog about a guy than after he dies.
