    'Dead' for almost 9 years and still there is no way to get away from anything Michael Jackson. Every day there is something in the news or on the radio, or in a movie or whatever.  :screaming-7365:

    "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."

    <br /><br />Well, although I believe he is still alive... Michael Jackson is a legend. He will continue to be remembered. I would be amazed at the otherwise.    :P

    <br /><br />Yes I feel that this year in particular there has been a lot happening.<br /><br />I also feel like Michael is finally going to be vindicated in the eyes of the public soon following the revelations coming out of Hollywood.<br /><br />Interesting times for sure.<br /><br />
  • What if Michael decides to come back after his reputation is rehabilitated?  :o

    <br /><br />That would be cool but I'm not sure I believe in a 'return' as such anymore.<br /><br />Isn't the first sentence of the article weird? Press always do this with Michael, allude to him making a come back. I'm sure they're just messing with us but I never see articles that talk about Whitney, Prince or David Bowie in the present tense. May they rest in peace.

    They do that just to get more viewers. You know that when you mention MJ, people will watch. Nothing going on there if you ask me and the show is absolutely horrible.
