@hounddog39 I do not understand why you compare to MJ with Elvis.I not say that Elvis was not good,I like it , was good, but not enough.MJ was more than a performer,he had a message,he was send by God to change the world.But the world ,the media, they wanted to see a strange and was not like that.Unfortunately some people will do anything for money.

The father and son are partly responsible for Michaels death... They need to be aware they are as guilty as the dr and his haters.
