Michael Jackson was never strange, it was strange what he had to go through in his life--is what Al Sharpton pointed out at MJ's Memorial. If you do more substantial research into Michael, hear his activism speeches all over the world and listen to his interviews, you will forever shed your mistaken opinion of his not being somehow "normal" for you. Michael was "too" much for too many, who invested themselves in diminishing and ultimately destroying him. Please, be more judicious as to what kind of reporting you listen to and when making judgments about people, so you don't have to discover their exceptional qualities and their "normalness" when it's too late. Behaviour like this kills, especially if you have the sensibilities of a personal and artistic genius of someone like Michael Jackson.

Thank you for the great article on Micheal Jackson, I am 70 yrs young, I first saw Micheal on the Ed Sullivan show and the rest is history, We have always loved Micheal, my daughters were raised with him and his music, I don't think there was anything strange about Micheal, he was just being Micheal, all I ever saw was his talent, his beauty, his music and the man that he was. I will always love him and I can't get enough of him. I will forever miss him, I always loved his song Ben. When I heard he had died I haven't stopped humming it. I hope his children follow in his footsteps, God Bless Them. He also took our childhood with him, it was an awful feeling to lose that.
