Whatever his personal failings might have been, he was undoubtedly an extraordinary entertainer. I bought his album "Thriller" as soon it became available and listened to it innumerable time over the years. There was something else about this man and that was a certain kind of sadness. With all the money and fame he was an unhappy soul. I hope he finds peace now. God be with him. RIP.

I can't agree with you LD. The guy was an extremely gifted CHILD MOLESTOR. If Himmler had been as gifted a composer as Bach, would he have been any less a monster for all the millions he exterminated? Alcoholism is a human failing. Molesting kids and destroying their lives is the work of monsters.
ReplyDeleteMoS, you have a point. The allegations against him are very troublesome. Then there are people like Jessie Jackson and Deepak Chopra (Chopra does talk about his drug addiction too) who speak very highly of him. However if allegations are true then indeed he was a despicable character.
