I agree I don't think he was ever really happy

Timmy84 said:

HAHA! I was just about to ask what era do you think it'll be sculpted from. The hair gives me 1984 era tease, but the face is giving Captain EO tease, well from the nose down. His eyes look a little too big

ViintageJunkiie said:

Yeah the face has a Captain EO-era charm to it.

Timmy84 said:

Yup. A lot of these people talking to the press now are shady.

Dr. Murray aint never gonna practice medicine in the USA again. PERIOD.


So Miss Jackson is going to get the kids....

And btw, who knew the Jackson grandkids esp. Randy's kids hung out alot with Teddy Riley's kids?



That's Deja Riley and Genevieve Jackson.

Wouldn't it be great if they named some city streets after him? Or an airport? Or maybe a library or school for the arts?

ViintageJunkiie said:

Aha

jamgirl said:

Cool. I remember Deja being on her daddy's group Blackstreet's "Another Level", she's the one reciting a poem before the start of "Money Can't Buy Me Love".

They already named a street after him in Nigeria I heard. Him, Bob Marley and some African sports star, I think, from Nigeria. I forgot where I read it but I was sure he, Bob, Dr. King and Malcolm X got streets named after them over there.

Timmy84 said:

Cool. I like to see ppl like em hang out.

Genevieve is a Jackson to watch me thinks. Girl's got the IT factor!

Timmy84 said:

Well I aint really caring about no streets in Nigeria. I mean ova here and yonder there

DesireeNevermind said:

Huh? I'm just SAYING.

jamgirl said:

Yeah, I do have that feeling she'll be the Jackson to BREAK OUT.

Timmy84 said:

DesireeNevermind said:

There MAY be a change to a section where MJ grew up at Gary renamed after him like Michael Jackson Drive.

Timmy84 said:

Dr. Murray is as DUMB as a box of nails.

And his career is OVER.

But as I think Ms. Katherine is a praying woman, she knows that Mike had issues and will maybe make her peace with God.

Man what if there are MJ fans in prison just waiting to get a piece of Murray.

A Selection of Quotes by Michael:


"I'm a visionary and a creative person. God has given me certain talents."

"I'll always be Peter Pan in my heart."

"When I see children, I see the face of God. That's why I love them so much. That's what I see."

"I love E. T. 'cos it reminds me of me. Someone from another world coming down and you becoming friends with them and this person is, like, 800 years old and he's filling you with all kinds of wisdom and he can teach you to fly. That whole fantasy thing which I think is great. I mean, who don't wanna fly?"

"My father was a management genius. But what I really wanted was a dad."

"And I remember going to the record studio and there was a park across the street and I'd see all the children playing and I would cry because it would make me sad that I would have to work instead."

"I just wish I could understand my father."


"I remember one time we were getting ready to go to South America and everything was packed up and in the car ready to go and I hid and I was crying because I really did not want to go, I wanted to play. I did not want to go."
Michael Jackson on touring with the Jackson Five

"I was a veteran, before I was a teenager."

"I will say again that I have never, and would never, harm a child. It sickens me that people have written untrue things about me."


"I'm a Black American, I am proud of my race. I am proud of who I am. I have a lot of pride and dignity."


"I'm just like anyone. I cut and I bleed. And I embarass easily."


"My mother's wonderful. To me she's perfection."


"The Bee Gees who are brilliant, I just love great music."

"The greatest education in the world is watching the masters at work."


"The meaning of life is contained in every single expression of life. It is present in the infinity of forms and phenomena that exist in all of creation."

"If you enter this world knowing you are loved and you leave this world knowing the same, then everything that happens in between can be dealt with."

That thought always crossed my mind.

It might have looked that way,but you were not having to actually live it. I can't imagine not being able to just walk out my door without having to have the fucking army to protect me.Let alone trying to wrap your mind around the fact that some of the fans would kill just to get a hug.I could'nt imagine being loved THAT much by someone that doesn't even really know me. I would'nt be surprised at all if he was taking some kind of anti-anxiety meds. I would have had a melt down if I had been in some of the situations he has been in.

^^ Thank you. It's easy to say that his life was easy BUT as we can SEE it wasn't. I'm lucky I never aspired to be a pop star because being one has privileges but it has more setbacks. I'm sure Michael always thought "if people wanna be famous, they should look at me." He was never going to have it "easy".

More michael vocal exercises. Low F on tape here later in the clip. Cool to hear his lower register.

Neighbor Describes Scene at Dr. Murray's Vegas Home
July 28, 2009


Although authorities from the DEA, Los Angeles and Las Vegas police departments searched Dr. Conrad Murray's Las Vegas residence Tuesday, the scene inside his ritzy community was "calm," a neighbor tells us.

"It's very calm in there, very controlled," said one resident who lives near Michael Jackson's physician at Red Rock Country Club community in the suburb of Summerlin, about 20 minutes from The Vegas Strip.

"We've been expecting [the raid]," says the neighbor, who doesn't know Murray. "I thought this would have happened a while ago."

The female neighbor could not see DEA agents carrying out the search, but said there was a noticeable police presence at the home. Though the scene was relatively low-key, several curious neighbors in the guard-gated community watched the search take place.

The search comes less than a week after authorities raided the Houston offices of Murray, who was with Jackson when the entertainer was stricken last month in his Los Angeles home.

Thats interesting.

Jermaine had it in for Michael with his jealousy...

Here is what it says in The Jackson Family Values book, "When I first heard the lyrics to Jermaine's Word to the Badd, I was saddened and hardly surprised, Jermaines jealousy of his brother had hit epic records by mid 1991.

Reconstructed/ Been abducted/Don't know who you are./ Was your color wrong?/ Could not turn back/ It's a know fact/ Your are too far gone...

The song had a decent track, but the lyrics were so vile, that I finally thought It was some sick joke! Surely Jermaine had no intention of releasing a record in which he lambasted his brother for neglecting his family, lightening his skin color, and having plastic surgery.
