Wacko Jacko Heart Attacko

Michael Jackson died of a heart attack last night.  He did some half decent political songs (They Don’t Care About Us and Earth Song) but his best stuff was disco like Billie Jean and Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough “Thriller” was the best-selling album of all time, yet he dies almost broke…

UPDATE : PMS says on behalf of Gordon Brown “Michael Jackson had millions of fans in Britain and the Prime Minister’s thoughts are with his family.”

Dave says “I know Michael Jackson’s fans in Britain and around the world will be sad today. Despite the controversies, he was a legendary entertainer. Everybody will be thinking of his family, especially his children, at this time.”

          He’s been there, done that and is now wearing a wacko Jacko T shirt, the peoples reject popsinger.

          Gordon’s next task is to secure a place alongside Obama at the funeral.

          Fuck! I hadn’t considered that. Obama might be at the funeral so Brown will be desperate to get an invite too.

          I have to say it’s the wierdest concept in the world to me that our PM would have so little self-respect that he’d been seen scurrying around the world just to spend a few minutes in somebody elses afterglow.

          Fucking wierd. Can you imagine Thatcher or Churchill prostituting themselves like that.

          What a third rate government we have.

          Brown must know he is cursed and so getting them would have been an intentional act to try and ruin MJ – perhaps he didn’t expect him dead but he surely must have considered the risk

        I think the biggest difference between the two cases is that Glitter did not have the financial means to buy the judge and jury, therefore Whilst Glitter did time inside and is accurately and legally described as a paedophile, Jackson was not convicted and therefore the media can still make headlines and sell copy to the vile fuckwits that STILL like Jacko.

      I’m not going to watch normal tv channels for the next few days for precisely that reason. I’m just going to watch movies instead. I couldn’t bear to see the same kind of media-created brainwashing that happened with Diana; I didn’t get swept along with the mass hysteria that the media created over Diana, but it did make me really fucking angry that the media were doing it, and if I hear the same thing happening again I’ll kick my telly to pieces in anger/disgust and I can’t afford to buy a new one just yet so I’m not going to watch the news etc.

      The normal reaction to a famous person dying who you never personally knew would either be:
      1) “that’s a shame; they were quite nice. ho hum. on with daily life.”
      or
      2) “no great loss; they were a twat. ho hum. on with daily life.”

      The media try to twist that normal/natural reaction by techniques that are no different to the kind of brainwashing techniques that despots use. I’ll have no part of it thank you.

      My reaction was “that’s a shame; it means we’ll never know what kind of new music he might have ended up writing later on. ho hum. on with daily life”

    My father once told me that, years ago he was listening to the Home Service, and the announcer declared, “There is no news today, so we shall play some music instead”.

    Fast forward five decades, to a time when his son (me) makes pains through careful tuning to ensure that there is no possibility of pop music eminating from any radio within earshot.

    As the Today Prgramme came on in my bedroom at 7.30am to assault my eardrums with a medley of Jackson 5 songs, utter panic and confusion ensued.

    We were then treated to half an hour of “analysis” of Jackson’s “work” (i.e. all the music and lyrics that were written by other people) from Paul Gambaccini.

    While we were not invited to savour the contents of Charlotte Green’s iPod, but it is clear that the only news today is that the BBC is continuing its pitiful decline as a dumbed down broadcaster.

    Last night heard about the death of a man in his fifties, whose career had ended in failure, whose face had collapsed into a sad caricature, and who spent far too much time hanging around kids. Imagine my disappointment to learn that it was not Gordon Brown who had died, but Michael Jackson. I had to have a glass of Jesus juice to get over the shock.

    Apparently his last word was…

    …owwwwwwwwwwww.

    To be fair to the lad, some of his earlier stuff was alright. Ian Brown covered Billie Jean and Thriller, so that’s a tribute of sorts.

    Rumours of him doing more fiddling than a Bavarian string quartet will tarnish his reputation, however.

    Can you believe this?
    Gordon Brown and David Cameron both say they are “saddened” by the death of pop legend Michael Jackson.

    The country is going down the lavatory and they have time to simper about a pop star who will be quickly forgotten, as they all are. Must be they are after the yoof vote.

    Who give a stuff about Jackson. He was a nutter whose sole object in life was to draw attention to himself by whatever means he could find.
    Brown’s expressions of sympathy are nothing other than diversionary tactics to divert attention of the public away from the state of the economy. He is dishonest, dissembling and frankly, in denial about how unbelievably incompetent he is and always has been. He is a has been but if he would only realise it, he would do us all a very great favour.

      Yep. The Tories should sponsor a bus full of football fans to follow him around singing ‘You’re SHIT and you know you are’ everywhere he goes. Certainly a more apposite offering than ‘Thiiiiings can only get bettttter’.

      Because he is shit. And I think he has more than an inkling of how unbelievably shit he is. It must eat him up.

    Brown now proposes an annual £60 Billion climate change fund to help poor countries.
    Where does the cretin think he is going to find the money. He has completely cleaned out UK taxpayers, apart from those on the public service payroll. So where will the money come from? He could let rip with the printing presses, of course, and leave the resultant problems to the next administration. Typical of Labour. They always leave office with the economy wrecked. Is there a Nobel Prize for the person who made the worst mess of an previously sound economy? He will be up there with Mugabe and the other crooks who strip out economies.
    It is time for the men in white coats.
    He MUST be sectioned because he is a danger to everyone in the UK.

      This is what taking drugs continually to ease the pain of rejection does to one’s mind and body – and I am not talking about Mr Jackson.

      Brown MUST be on some kind of drug to even utter this total crap – we are broke,busted,flushed and incinerated and now he tries to get us to give money we never have had and never will have to countries that will only ever use it for their Dictator’s Mercedes fleet.

    What a load of crap. Has the West gone mad ? (rhetorical question). Its all a bit like believing Julie Kirkbride when she says she was `humbled` by the massivge support she received in her constituency for her dedicated service to the community. Only left wing extremists oppose her and she has repaid £704 towards the £3.7 million paid to her family during the past 12 years. Why does she love Michael Jackson?

    I’ve been reading a few blogs/tweets where people obviously dislike him, but straight-up have no respect for him or his family during this time. People sometimes believe going against the grain combined with social media is trendy, giving them an edge. We must be careful not to use a faceless Internet as an excuse to abandon humanism, respect and dignity.
