I have problems when I hear things like Anna Nicole Smith died of an "accidental" overdose or Karen Carpenter died of "natural causes." Why can't they just tell it like it is?
I think his thing was prescription drugs...but that's just my humble opinion.

Originally posted by Sam The ShamThe coverage of Michael's life and death in the press only proves one thing...it takes only one screwup (to put it lightly) to erase a million and one ata boy's. It seems that everyone is content to talk about the problems in his life rather than the fact that his body of work over his short life has changed music forever, much as Elvis' music did. I am hard pressed to think of anyone else that has such an influence, at least in this generation.
Plastic surgeons everywhere are happy he won't be seen in public anymore.
Unfortunately, he might have fallen victim to to the same cause.

If you're looking for someone who influenced others music-wise, try thinking of someone like John Lennon or Bob Dylan.

So, Farrah Fawcett dies and goes to heaven.
God grants her one wish.
She wishes that all the children in the world would be safe.
Minutes later Micheal Jackson dies.
Too soon?
