i'm the same age as michael jackson. i'll NEVER forget the first time i saw the j5 on the ed sullivan show, i think in 1969. i was mezmerized. a kid my age could sing and dance like that. there will never be another 10 year old with that talent, charisma and stage presence. even though i was a hard rock kid, i always loved michael. i bought off the wall, thriller and bad even though all the other music i listened to at that time was hard rock. i was sad he became such a ridiculous figure in later years and i've shed tears since i've heard of his death. but right now i have a smile as i listen to "i'm going back to indiana". his music will live forever worldwide. r.i.p michael.
