The Day in 100 Seconds: Remembering Michael

[Maziyar]

I remember this story was on cnn

and in the background they had

the song rock with you playing

the music was never more alive than on that day.

he will live forever.

[jkrunrmc]

He was a great Musicain and Artist, but he just went downhill.

[Bizzer10]

ed mcmahon, farrah fawcett, micheal jackson and now billy mays

what the fuck

[mike50333]

...Billy Mays?  You mean Al from Home Improvement? You're kidding, right??

[whatis224]

billy mays is not al from home improvement!!

[Bizzer10]

no, the guy from the infomercials that sells OXY-CLEAN

he also has a show called pitch men

[glaked23]

Not the same person. Billy Mays is that guys that is like. BILLY MAYS HERE WITH (random product)"

[GuitarDemystified]

this is the youtube channel i go to for politics not music,

well it's all the entertainment biz i guess.

is politics no more pertinent than michael jackson?

i guess not, according to the news channels that tpmtv covers

[aphexmandelbrot]

Dear Western World,

We fucking love Michael Jackson.

RIP.

<3. <3

xxoo,

President Ahmadinejad

[Flowerchild4love]

Moon walker for life.

[greatbroad]

In honor of Michael Jackson, I'm adding one of his songs to our Campaign for Liberty playlist-- for tomorrow's 60th Annual Swedish Days Parade...

"Wanna be Startin' Something"

[BassChaz]

MJ this, MJ that..

Not a mention about Farrah!

At least SHE FOUGHT to live.

MJ overdosed!

Iran? 2 words..

Whats wrong with America?

Its the fascination with Celebrity!

[snipzor]

Yeah, what an asshole. Why couldn't he let Farrah have her day?

[schizerbone]

ha...the nerve of some people.

[canibaal]

its the media. not the people.

[midnightslastashes]

FUCK MJ, tell me more about iran!!

[k166a]

A little harshly worded, but I agree.

There's more important news they should be showing on the boob tube...

[MelanieLouM]

Hey...Farrah Fawcett died too...HELLO??? >:(

[HaloedG]

Farrah Fawcett was not as famous...

[PharaohNineD]

No you unthinking a-hole. She was fighting cancer and it was expected she was going to pass away.

Jacko's death was like up out of the blue. And since it was him wacko jacko. They're all like, hmm I what craziness claimed him. So on and on and on and on the coverage will go.

[HaloedG]

Not that it really matters...asshole.

[PharaohNineD]

But she wasn't a crazy freak. And they had been all ginned to cover something about him again anyway.

[ver506]

Of course FAUX noise would be conflicted about covering Michael Jackson...let's forget all that innocent until proven guilty crap!!! Sheesh....

They had to chose between covering MJ, or Gov Stanford....between a rock and a hard place.

[kelseywall]

The fact that Iran only got 10 seconds coverage says a lot about American culture.

[HaloedG]

Iran is Iran...MJ is American culture.  Why should we care about Iran's affairs?

[SabuPtolemy]

Are you that dumb?! What happens in Iran in the aftermath of this election has MAJOR implications for America and much of the world.

Michael Jackson will live on thru his music but this media freak show is just that - lowest common denominator entertainment for themasses that serves no purpose in the big scheme of things.

[MooseOfReason]

kelseywall, Because one blog's YouTube channel represents all of America?

[kelseywall]

Nope. But the major news channels do.

[glaked23]

Stories about Micheal Jackson >>>>>. Stories about Iran or Cap and Trade viewer wise.

[SabuPtolemy]

NAMBLA is flying their freak flag at half staff!

Someone please make sure the kids MJ bought from Debbie Rowe and that other woman get a chance to grow up normal now - AWAY from the whole Jackson clan.

[MelanieLouM]

I hope it's not too late to de-program those poor kids! They were not Michael's flesh and blood, anyway! >:(

[TAz69x]

Jackson's death is sad... but where is Farrah?; and BRING BACK IRAN; it's a little more relevant.

They've lost their international voice. Jackson's death could actually have an effect on the evolution of that region.

[KataVideo]

I would go a step further and say that Health Care coverage for all Americans is more important than Iran, which is more important than Farrah and michael

[Snoopies622]

I love these 100-second news caps..

[Brak82]

i guess he was abused as a kid and just wanted to be close to children, cause he loved them. Dont you?

[irvrod]

plus he sung great when he was a kid

pretty sure he was abused tho

[irvrod]

well like him or not hes dead so

RIP MJ

[WKaliberr]

MJ was the best. All you haters can fuck off.

[ZuttaJedi]

Wait a minute..."musical talent? no."?????? He wrote most of his lyrics, was a choreographer, he helped compose his own music, was a visionary on what he wanted on stage, radio, record, tv, film... His voice was powerful and unique and great. Do you even know what musical talent is? If not, then you don't know Michael.

[valgehiir]

ZuttaJedi , so true. I listen to punk. But 'Billy Jean', 'Thriller', 'Smooth Criminal'.. me and my skin friends ALL of us listened to those songs.. we lived in Soviet Union at the time, so no marketing there.. western pop was illegal to tape from Western Europe radio.

And yes, he did most of the choreography, song writing.. There has never been an entertainer who touched so many people with totally opposing musical tastes. That is Genius

[Maplesyrup41]

rip mj

[Maziyar]

@ 1:20 Barack Obama speaks my mind. I laughed when i heard Iran's president ask for an apology also. Its almost unreal Obama.

[americanmuslimgirl]

He died a Muslim.

[IIIJHUSSLEIII]

This is exactly why I don't trust our Media!! They was talking about "IRAN" for God knows how long and i'm shocked at how quickly the Media has stopped reporting about it!!

That's how I know that our Media is controlled by the Zionist Jews!! Although Michael Jackson was the best to ever do it.. I just don't see a need to keep reporting about his passing.

[KataVideo]

If no one else will say it, I will:

Michael Jackson sucked. He was a great musician or performer, in the same way the mcdonald's is a culinary institution and velveeta is a cheese food.

he was a shrewd business man who knew what to sell and when to sell it, and what to invest in. and then there was that whole "screwing little boys" thing.. jackson was not a heroic lead guitar player like jimi nor prophet like chuck d.. he was an emasculated black male who hung around with chimps and llamas.

[integral]

rofl

that's right. nobody else would say it.

thank goodness you're here to spell it out ;)

[stellarspellar]

True, KataVideo. Musical talent? No. Stage presence, entertainment/marketing value? Yes. Hence, King of Pop.

[Maplesyrup41]

fuck u

mj was one of the best

history will set things straight

[SkyDaddy7]

History will show he had a severe drug addiction that ended up killing him...History will also tell that he was a child predator!

History will also tell if he abused his children? We know he neglected them by using drugs but were they subjected to much worse? Time will tell Micael's secrets!!

[KataVideo]

history will set things straight? why, are there more pedophilia victims who will come forward?

[ipbalkenende]

@Kata

Perhaps, but that is totally irrelevant to his musical talent. And the victims that have come forward so far though pretty numerous have giant credibility issues. I say 60-40 not guilty. But history will probably clear this up a bit more.

[valgehiir]

KataVideo, it is not easy to say this to you, but.. FUCK YOU!

[KataVideo]

thanks! and the horse I rode in on!

[ipbalkenende]

@Kata

You are an idiot.

Besides what great businessman ends up 400 million in debt?

Michael Jackson was a great musical talent and the fact that his music was popular takes nothing away from that. You don't even have to like his music to acknowledge this.

[KataVideo]

this isn't twitter, don't "@" me.

I hear a lot of lost people talking about what a great musical talent he was without actually citing any accomplishments.

It was 'pop'. and 'pop' is the sound of a bubble. and a bubble is thin-veneer wrapping a big ol vacuous volume of nothing.

so you want to say he wasn't a good businessman either? no, he wasn't a good manager. but for striking while the iron was hot, he knew what to sell and when to sell it.

[ipbalkenende]

@Kata

Never used twitter, youtube often fucks up in the placement of responses. This is a service I provide as a failsafe how terrible!

Anyway so you don't like pop, great I don't like country and fucking hate the junk that passes for rock/punk/emo bullshit these days. But you know about opinions, they are like assholes. Everyone has them. And sometimes people like to rub them in your face.

[KataVideo]

well I like to rub it in people's faces.

opinions that is, that other thing would be gross and republican.

[moregravyplease]

You screw little boys and you are a murderer too. Pkus you kick your dog daily. Don't even try to deny it. There's no need for a trial, because we all know that the truth is that you are a pedophile and you suck llama cocks.

See how easy that is?

[rickardo004]

amg! shut up. there really isn't anything more important in the entire WORLD than mj's death?

blah

[sheky24]

I am with

Richardgwm, he is a great musician but he still ending up with young kids.. i have mix feelings as well

[snakefilm]

RIP Michael I miss ya

[buffalosouljah18]

I'm mixed on it. You feel sorry for the old micheal, but the new one and all these stories... either way RIP.

[Richardgwm]

We have lost one of the greatest pedophiles of our time.

[KataVideo]

lol

[moregravyplease]

You are the greatest pedophile of all time, and a murderer as well. Don't even TRY to deny it. Everyone knows the truth about you.

OTOH, MJ was aquitted of all charges. It sucks that people take such a negative view about him, as though the only thing that he ever accomplished in life is being accused of touching someone's wee-wee. He never hurt anyone. Unlike RichardGWM, who has raped millions of infants and murdered millions of babies by drowning them in his putrid rotten semen.

[JBeatty17]

R.I.P.

[rafflegomez]

I miss MJ
