Whit did he do again?
His achievements were lost on this 92 year old Orcadian.
IIRC, he did some music, fiddled with kids and paid a shit load of money out to said kids to deny the above fiddling. Also tried to change himself into a white woman.. But we must now have the usual media frenzy/ public outpouring of grief.
I do know who he was and have nothing against him, but I do not feel that he has influenced my life in any way and feel nothing about his death.
And I guess we must also have the usual Daily Mail outpouring of scandal stirring and revelations.
Personally I just believe everything I read in the paper/see on TV. It must be true!
And the usual STW outpouring of cynicism and self-righteousness.
Don't forget that.
Oh, so its not the renowned writer on fine beer then?
He wrote some guide books on Malt Whisky too!
I liked his music but prefered Jarvis Cocker.

He's dead already.

I'm not saying he's innocent (or guilty for that matter) but if it was my child that had been sexually abused I wouldn't 'settle out of court' for any amount of money.
You have to ask yourself if those parents were prepared to 'look the other' whether their allegations where 100% true.
The rumours are exagerated

Was listening to radio 5 earlier today & they did a little montage of "music you'd never have heard if it hadn't been for MJ"
It was ALL kack
IMO he had a massive talent that disappeared (quite possibly beaten out of him) by the timne he was about 15
