My Nice Post Of The Day about M.J.

Edited on Tue Jul-07-09 08:35 PM by rsmith6621
I have been pretty blatantly rude and by some with in regards to the passing of Michael Jackson over the past several days. Perhaps I should apologize and then again NOT!!! For me twelve days was a bit much and still I still believe an uncalled circus for but hopefully at sunrise tomorrow the world can wake up to a new day and move on past MJ.

Now on the the NICE part. I believe that MJ was the last of a special group of talented original musicians. Elvis,The Beatles, Hendricks, Nat King Cole, Tina Turner were in the same league as MJ each of them brought an originality of their own to the music scene. Unfortunately today's artist are nothing but spin off copy cats with out the above artist they would have no solid foundation to base their talent on......unfortunately music has not seen anything new and refreshing in the past twenty years plus. Britney...Justin....Jennifer Hudson.....Usher....Greenday....ect and the likes are all copy cats and there is nothing new.

So with this on the day that we as a world community gathered to say goodbye to MJ,my hat is off to MJ...he had something that was unique and his own.

And If I have offended you.....I apologize.


BTW.....Elvis first hit......Love me Tender made its world debut 53 years ago today on a Memphis radio station.
