As everyone has heard by now, Michael Jackson passed away from that appears to be a heart attack, at the golden age of 50. Many people think of him as this freaky child molester, or a monster, either way, he was quite quirky to say the least. Regardless of all this, his career started at an early age, and unlike a lot of child stars, his name never fizzled out, instead, it grew to Pop Royalty.
What I think is sad about Michael Jackson is that he was not happy with himself, maybe it was because of how he was raised, or because he grew up in the public's eye, but you can tell that he was never comfortable in his own skin. He started out as a handsome young man of the African-American nature, but in the end, was not much more than a skeleton with flesh on it.
I must admit, he was heavily judged by his actions, but he definitely knew how to sing. Some of my favorite songs were "You Are Not Alone", "Black Or White", "Smooth Criminal", "Will You Be There", and "Heal The World". Not only do I like the music to these songs, but the lyrics, especially on You Are Not Alone and Will You Be There. I've got Heal The World on here, listen as it's sung, Michael has a very good point in this song. Hope you like it as well as I do.

We shouldn't judge the wrong doings of any man, that's something that we have to leave up to our maker, so lets just remember Michael Jackson for the POSITIVE things he's done in his life.
