Just over two hours ago, Michael Jackson passed away apparently due to cardiac arrest. Heard it on CNN this morning as I was leaving the house, and Mix FM carried the news too. It’s gonna be tribute weekend, for sure.
So many memories linked to him and his music. Set aside the controversies surrounding him for a moment, and you’ll remember he was a good performer.
He practically pioneered the music video as mini-movie. The release of his Thriller video was an event of note. I even remember when the Bad music video was released.
He may have belonged to a particular era, especially when he couldn’t stage any meaningful comeback in the past decade. But his music will live on.
