Legacy and influence

Michael Jackson was inducted into the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1984. There are actually two stars bearing the name Michael Jackson in the walk, the other being that of the Los Angeles talk radio show host of the same name; while Jackson's name is marked with a record icon, the radio Jackson is denoted with a microphone icon. Jackson had a notable impact on music and culture throughout the world. He broke down racial barriers, transformed the art of the music video and paved the way for modern pop music in his own country. Jackson's work, distinctive musical sound and vocal style have influenced hip hop, pop and R&B artists, including Mariah Carey,[19] Usher,[214] Britney Spears,[19] Justin Timberlake[116] and R. Kelly.[184] For much of his career, he had an "unparalleled" level of worldwide influence over the younger generation through his musical and humanitarian contributions.[215]

Throughout his career he received numerous honors and awards, including the World Music Awards' Best-Selling Pop Male Artist of the Millennium, the American Music Award's Artist of the Century Award and the Bambi Pop Artist of the Millennium Award.[33][216] He was a double-inductee of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, once as a member of The Jackson 5 in 1997 and later as a solo artist in 2001. Jackson was also an inductee of the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2002.[33] His awards include multiple Guinness World Records (eight in 2006 alone), 13 Grammy Awards, 13 number one singles in his solo career—more than any other male artist in the Hot 100 era—and the sale of over 750 million records worldwide, making him the world's best selling male solo pop artist.

He was characterized as "an unstoppable juggernaut, possessed of all the tools to dominate the charts seemingly at will: an instantly identifiable voice, eye-popping dance moves, stunning musical versatility and loads of sheer star power".[177] In the mid-1980s, Time described Jackson as "the hottest single phenomenon since Elvis Presley".[37] By 1990, Vanity Fair had already cited Jackson as the most popular artist in the history of show business.[67] Daily Telegraph writer Tom Utley called him an "extremely important figure in the history of popular culture" and a "genius".[220] His total lifetime earnings from royalties on his solo recordings and music videos, revenue from concerts and endorsements have been estimated at $500 million; some analysts have speculated that his music catalog holdings could be worth billions of dollars.[68][221] Cited as one of the world's most famous men, Jackson's highly publicized personal life, coupled with his successful career, made him a part of popular culture for almost four decades.

eu mereu m-am gandit ca...probabil a suferit mult din cauza oamenilor...ca il desconsiderau din cauza ca era negru. ca pana la urma nu te hotarasti intr-o dimineata "ma fac alb" daca nu ai nici un motiv. pana la urma nu e ceva usor...va dati seama cata durere...cat a suportat doar ca sa fie acceptat? nu stiu...mie chiar mi se pare sad...
nu stiu, cu toata celebritatea si faima si banii...nu mi se pare ca a fost o persoana fericita, implinita. :( si asta e cel mai rau...

iar de judecat artistii...nu ii putem judeca. ma uitam acum vreo 2 luni pe youtube...la niste filmulete cu britney... deci paparazzi o hartuiau...ii puneau intrebari care mai de care mai batjocoritoare si care sigur o dureau (inclusiv despre copii ei). de multe ori a inceput sa planga, sa tipe la ei... era un filmulet in care voia saraca sa faca o simpla poza la un perete decorat cu graffiti sau nu stiu ce chestie...si fotografii stateau in fata ei sa o fotografieze. si se tot ruga de ei sa se dea putin la o prte...sa o lase sa faca o amarata de poza...si tot nu a reusit.
credeti ca e chiar usor sa fii vedeta? sa nu de poti sa te duci nici pana la magazin fara sa ai nu stiu cate zeci de blituri pe tine. e normal ca la un moment dat sa clachezi...sa devii deprimat...sa iei pastile...
nu mai zic de lucruri neadevarate scrie peste tot...care vrei nu vrei...te afecteaza... fiecare reactioneaza in felul lui...dar nu avem dreptul sa judecam....
Eu il apreciez ca artist...imi plac toate melodiile lui...am crescut pe ele...tin minte concertul de la Bucuresti..si acum cred ca mai am caseta video inregistrata atunci cand a fost difuzat la tv concertul...
si pacat...ca aceeasi reporteri care acum 2-3 ani inventau barfe despre el..acum se folosesc de moartea lui ca sa isi vada ziarele sau sa aiba audiente. pacat ca a trebuit sa moara ca sa realizeze lumea cat de important este...si cat de mult a oferit lumii, muzicii... pacat ca suntem oameni... :(

Uri Geller, who was a friend of Michael Jackson's, only knows that the King of Pop was very lonely. Geller knew this because he once asked Michael, "Michael, are you lonely?" And Michael said to him, "Uri Geller, I am a very lonely man."

With so many celebrities expressing heartfelt concern and shock and personal stories about Michael, you'd think the man was never lonely at all. But Ben Brafman, Jackson's former defense attorney, says that from what he observed, Jackson rarely spoke to many people outside of his children and necessary staff. "The adults around Michael Jackson didn't interact with Michael Jackson. I never saw him in conversation with the adults around him. The only people he talked with were his children, there was a woman who helped take care of the children who he spoke with ... He was young, he was sweet, he was gentle, he was naive, and he was very sad."

Just as it's getting difficult to stomach this dizzying mix of passionate, loving celebrity tributes and depressing observations, Al Sharpton rolls out the fighting words. "A lot of people that you will hear saying a lot of great things [about him] over the next couple days, they broke Michael Jackson's heart way before it gave way today.

Tot ce pot sa spun e ca era prea bun pentru lumea asta....care nici macar nu a stiut sa-l aprecieze...sau macar sa incerce sa-l accepte...

In our darkest hour
In my deepest despair
Will you still care?
Will you be there?
In my trials
And my tripulations
Through our doubts
And frustrations
In my violence
In my turbulence
Through my fear
And my confessions
In my anguish and my pain
Through my joy and my sorrow
In the promise of another tomorrow
Ill never let you part
For you're always in my heart.

asa a si murit saracul....si asa a fost o viata ...

Michael Jackson
un om care a schimbat multe in lumea asta, un adevarat fenomen si un megastar in adevaratul sens al cuvantului..............
cum a zis si andrela, cred c-a fost un om care a suferit enorm din cauza oamenilor, mi se pare ca era un om sensibil, care a luptat sa fie cel mai bun, si chiar a reusit......sa speram ca a stiut pana in ultima clipa cat de mult a insemnat pt noi....
Dumnezeu sa-l ierte!

tot ce va rog este sa irositi 8 minute din viata voastra si sa priviti dansul si sa ascultati muzica...si apoi sa spuneti sincer:merita oare atata isterie moartea lui?...merita sa avem sufletele in doliu?..eu zic ca da

noahh e clar n-a mai fost nimeni ca el pana acum, si nici nu o sa fie vreodata
el crek a fost special nascut ca sa danseze asa

jos palaria!!!!!!

apropo de palarie, cred ca ala care a prins-o pana la urma, a fost extrem de fericit :)

c@t a scris:sa speram ca a stiut pana in ultima clipa cat de mult a insemnat pt noi...

nu a stiut...nu a simtit asta. iti dai seama cata durere era in sufletulu unui om care la intrebarea "Michael, are you lonely?" sa ii raspunda "Uri Geller, I am a very lonely man.". va dati seama cata durere in sufletul lui?
nici macar in dragoste nu a avut noroc. un om cu atatea fane si femei care lesinau la spectacole...cand a vrut copii a trebuit sa apeleze la insiminare articifiala a unor femei care in schimb obtineau bani in schimbul "serviciului" prestat.
