I'm not trying to sound offensive here, but the last 2 decades or so, he just hasn't been all there, his actions are less than stellar, and methinks it's time for that old dog to be taken out behind the wood shed and Old Yeller'ed.

That's just my opinion, I could be wrong

Sorry, never a fan, not even a little. Back in the day a true Rock n Roller would not be caught dead listening to his crap!

Well Truthfully, I always thought his music was good but like others his personality is definitley pushed to the edge. Alas, like Frank I blame the parental figures and his family.

Jackson's biggest problem was that he grew up in the limelight as the youngest member of the Jackson Five and didn't have the right kind of support structure to direct his development as he grew up. He is a talented artist, but then so was Adolph Hitler (painter). I'm not putting Jackson in Hitler's particular corner of demented and sick behavior, he's never exhibited that twisted darkness that Hitler did. I'd put Jackson more in the Howard Hughes area...very quirky, very troubled and obviously needing a great deal of supervision. As to his health...well I don't personally wish illness on anyone. Too much bad karma. I'm not a huge fan. He's had his share of toe-tappers and having grown up in his era, I'll still catch myself humming a tune that he performed twenty or more years ago.

I personally was a heavy-metal/rock country fan in my day. I've mellowed big time over the years. I can't stand the music I used to think I enjoyed. Getting old ain't easy!
