Musicians are viewed much the same way as writers are in terms of influence (i.e. their work and their personal lives are viewed separately). I wasn't a huge fan of MJ's music (I like a couple of songs of his, nor would I call myself an avid fan by any means), and really could care less about his personal life, but I still recognize the influence he had on so many fans' lives, and other musicians as well. And all other things aside, the man sold millions upon millions of records! Anyone who is ranked at the top with Elvis and The Beatles deserves my respect, regardless of whether I like his music or not.

Futurist Posts: 737 Group: Members Member #81 Joined: Dec 9, 2008	As far as music today goes, the songs come and go and you don't really hear about them again. Michael's music far excells that of typical artists today. His music will live forever. Due to that I completely respect him as an artist. I just don't really agree with some of the decisions he's made in his personal life. Whether he had stuff happen with the boys or not, he just shouldn't have put himself in the situation in the first place. Then he wouldn't have had that negative publicity. But his music still brings all his fans together all over the world despite of all that has happened to him. So his music does entertain, heals, gives hope, and brings together people from all over

She has almost just as many CDs as MJ did(not counting Jackson 5 ). He was a great man. And did great. But have you ever mourned like this when a past president or King or Queen or Political leader passed away? What makes him more important? but who knows if Ozzy Osbourne died i would get into a beatle position and listen to Crazy Train for lke 5 days straight haha.
