Michael Jackson RIP

i'm not really a malicious person, but i dont think i can think of a single time platini has made a helpful or nice contribution to this forum

its a bit sad really because i think he has no real friends especially as he's getting on a bit now

I can.

try thinking harder then

you're right actually i seem to remember him posting a picture of his dog on the pet thread and he spoke about it lovingly

if memory serves

did anyone have tickets?

I can.

please excuse me then

I feel a very similar way.

He had severe mental health problems and probably didn't reach his potential.

I would have killed myself years ago with all that publicity and fame.

But I would have been a bit more creative than just a friggin heart attack.

not at all, he was feeling a little queer yesterday

Thats

... except for the infectious engineering and seamless arrangement.

Vocalist - yeah. Musician - nah. And he was tedious live in '88 from where I was standing (near the front).

I got back into "Off The Wall" massively about five years ago and wrote a little piece about what a masterpiece it is.. it's a perfect melding of Quincy, Templeton and Jackson..but importantly, all three when you examine it. seriously, the demo of DSTYGE is rougher and far cooler as a dance track than the slicked up studio version and draws from the club sounds Quincy was far from. Templeton wrote some massively catchy pop but MJ brings something to it the other two come nowhere near on their own during the same period. On the demos I think he had Randy playing drums and Janet banging a glass with a stick while he sung and hit the rhodes.

I wasn't really into MJ by '88, Prince had long made him irrelevant.. ;)

look, i dont really like you. please fuck off and stop quoting me.

i know. he should be f-ing glad that i do not run this show. i would have banned him a long, long time ago.

Why?

Twitter Goes Mad With Celeb Death News
Written by Vince Pettit | Friday, June 26, 2009 | Comment on this article | + Share

  On the day that we’ve lost Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett there has been unconfirmed rumours that both Harrison Ford and Jeff Goldblum have also died.

Harrison Ford is apparently missing after his yacht sunk and Jeff Goldblum has apparently fallen off a cliff in New Zealand while filming.
We’ve yet to find a proper news report about this as it seems all the links point to a site called ‘MediaFetcher’ and it seems that they may just be cashing in on celeb death news to get a few extra hits to their website.
If we hear any confirmations of either of these stories we will let you know… but for now don’t believe it just because you saw it on twitter.

i know. he should be f-ing grateful that i do not run this show. i would have banned him a long, long time ago.

I think we're all f-ing grateful for that.

Which is why so many people on here seem to empathise with him, eh?

No. Very few people on this forum will have anything like the level of problems that he had.

We're not talking about depression.

that would be a grim reaper hat trick...... well actually if you swapped goldblum for someone good.....

fuck you Platini. stop trying to make this thread about you. Face it, people care more about a dead American paedophile than they do about you. Go away you sad prick.

Spelling's improved...

there is no heaven - Tynan said so.

I have never said (could never have said) there is no heaven, I am - by all measures - ignostic on the these kinds of ideas, that is these ideas (words, even) are entirely without meaning to me. We can say there is no 'heaven' in the same way that we can say there is no 'HiuËhkhƒƒß', I have no clue what a 'HiuËhkhƒƒß' might be, nor do I have any idea what a 'heaven' might be, nor has any proponent of 'heaven' ever offered a cogent description of what a 'heaven' might be (and why would they, people who subscribe to superstition tend not to employ reasoned thought in arriving at their tracing paper thin comic epistemology).

The cunts.

But, yes, Jacko is now in heaven.

Bless him, the silly little singing kid.

:(

Dead at 50.

With all that music.

He has just become an industry / cult.

No doubt MJ was a deeply fucked up individual, no smoke without fire, but probably as much a victim as anything else - i am sure all sorts of stories will be coming out the woodwork over the next couple of days.

However he layed down some of the greatest tracks ever, Billie Jean will always be the perfect pop song for me, and its still the record that gets people on the dance floor quicker than anything else.

even if heaven does exist there's no way of ever finding out

Of course there is, be good and die.

If he causes you so much annoyance there is a really useful function on you user CP, it's called the 'ignore' button.

Saves you seeing anything that you find annoying or offensive.

Anyway enough of that, this thread is meant to be about Platini, right?

bollocks. ignore function works well in theory, not so well in practice.

if you haven't watched the britney spears episode of south park i think you should

Of course there is, be good and die.

well of course, but there is no way for the living to find out... unless you've got something in the works?
