Jonone in all fairness, The Stones and Bowie (both legends in my mind) would be given huge tributes but the shocking thing here is that MJ died at 50 of a heart attack. Not something that anyone thought he would go out on a couple months before a final curtain tour.

In short. No one saw it coming. the Stones are still rocking into their 70's and still as fit as fiddles. it wouldnt be such a shock if something like this happened as most people consider people aged 70 to be old as fossils living on borrowed time anyway.

Last night I heard of the death of a man in his fifties. Once acclaimed as a master in his field, latterly he had become a sad, deluded figure, mocked in public, who had wasted a fortune on mad spending sprees. His face had collapsed into a barely human caricature, and he had taken to spending a lot of time being photographed with children. Imagine my surprise therefore to learn that Gordon Brown was alive and well, and that Michael Jackson had died. I shall raise a glass of Jesus juice to his memory.

Some great tunes over 20 years ago, but in many peoples eyes, still a nonce.
Prince, for my money, is far better.
