Wow. That's just weird.

Michael Jackson had a heart attack and died today.

It was especially weird because multiple news outlets reported it a lot of differen ways, including CNN, for awhile, saying he was in a coma.

I was always hoping that he'd make some sort of amazing come back and stop being so crazy.

Yeah. He was good for awhile. Really good.

As far as I'm concerned, he and Madonna were the king and queen of the eighties.

That's a pretty true statement, I think. In more than one way.

I can't say I knew him but I definitely got the impression that inside he was a very tortured soul. In some ways I think maybe he may be happier this way. The media piled so much shit on his shoulders during his lifetime I know I probably wouldn't have wanted to live. But he may have been really strong and retained a will to live. I wonder what those close to him thought, whether he wanted to live or die. Was he a broken guy, or still going.
