Previous words: Michael Jackson's death...

You can do either two things, and that is show your sorrow for losing Michael Jackson, or not say anything at all.

If you feel the need to show your sorrow, appreciation, and love for Michael Jackson, go ahead and do it.

But if you are someone who wants to be funny, or put down others for being sad about this, you can go fuck yourself.

What this means is bring yourself down to the human level. Because Michael meant something to A LOT of people. Especially over generations. And we all post things on Myspace or Facebook about things that matter to us. Every single one of us. EVERY SINGLE DAY WE DO THIS. We can find many bulletins or status updates throughout the day who are posting about something that made them happy, bummed out, excited, nervous, etc. But somewhere along the line people feel like they need to bring others down for emotion.

If you feel like you need to be one of these people, you can go fucking die. And take Perez Hilton with you. We are all human beings and we do not need to do this to each other. We do not need this bullshit. It really goes back to the old saying "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all."

There needs to be more fo a mutual respect for each other.

On a musician level, it saddens me to hear people who "claim" to be a musician say such awful things about a legend. True musicians have a respect for all music. You do not have to like the music, but always respect it. If you ever notice the best musicians are influenced from multiple genres. They have no boundaries. Musicians should respect the fact that, Michaels music, has been labeled timeless. Becoming the highest selling artist in history. You don't have to like him, but you can respect the hard work and dedication to music. FOR MUSIC.

It's true. Everyone dies. But yes, some people over-react. But the legend and icon that Michael Jackson was, that's what people are so shocked with. Yes people die. But here's the thing, take a celebrity or artist or musician that you love, and wouldn't you be pretty devastated if they died? I know you would. Same thing with me and Blink. Because with MJ, Blink, etc., THATS PART OF OUR YOUTH!! It's a part of us. Its memories etc. And you always want new material or to go see them live. And with Michael Jackson being as huge as he was world wide, and having everyone know who he was and his songs, and his legacy, yea....its a pretty big deal that he is now gone. It's not that they are freaking out that the PERSON THEY KNEW died, its how that person affected their life and is now finished. It will never be more than it is. That's why I said its ok for people to be sad that he is gone. Obviously some people will be WAY OVER DRAMATIC about that, but you're gonna get those type of people with any thing really.


That is all.
