Ok so I'll be posting more blogs on here I've just been real lazy lately w/ blogger. But I wanted to post this MJ survey I found online and what my answers were real quick.
Enjoy.
Feel free to comment on the survey and/or copy it and post your answers.
R.I.P. Michael Jackson 1958-2009
First and foremost, have you actually heard his music?:
Yes of course I heard his music. Who hasn't?
What's your favorite song of his?:
I have so many but if I had to choose one it would be either Beat it, Human Nature, or Heartbreak hotel.
Favorite album?:
Definately the Thriller Album. I play that one all the time.
How did you find out that he died?:
I was home getting my party pics disc from my Aunts husband then my mom called me and told me the news.
What was your first thought when you heard?:
That it couldn't be true. I couldn't believe it. It was just too much. I . I was so overwhelmed.
Are you sad?:
Of course. He was my biggest inspiration, my hero.
Have you cried about it at all?:
I cried once the 1st day I heard the news after I was able to grasp what had happened and then I cried during the memorial service. It was like that was when it was real that he was gone. Seeing his casket (sp) and everything.
Are you a big fan of his music or just a casual fan...:
A huge fan. Ever since I was 5 yrs old.
Or do you not even like it that much?:
Were you going to go to one of the concerts he was planning?:
Only if he was going to come to the U.S. then yeah I def would have went.
Do you think he was guilty of the child molestation charges?:
No I do not think he was guilty. I always knew in my heart that he was innocent and those kids confessing that he didn't molest them proves it.
Do you think the reason he was so strange was because he never really had a childhood?:
He didn't have the normal childhood. He was in the spotlight since he was 5. So we can't blame him for being the way he is. Yes he was a little different But I don't think him being a "big kid" was strange at all. He was a nice person and a good man. I think he was just more misunderstood b/c the world just wasn't able to understand his personal life decisions and behaviors. Truthfully who are we to judge anyone. And everyone just needed to stay out of his personal life and buisness.
Did you ever make jokes about him?:
Well I never made jokes about him but I did laugh at a lot of jokes about him. Like when Kanye would say stuff in his songs and other people might say stuff. But it was all in fun. We all love MJ.
Do you feel bad now, or does the fact that he died not change your opinion?:
Truthfully no. I don't think he took them to heart. Well I hope not. Most of the people who made jokes about him were the ones that worshiped him. It was all in fun. Everyone gets made fun of no matter who you are. Its just up to you how you handle them. Now I do admit that a few of the jokes I've heard were harsh and not acceptable but I take those as insults more than jokes.
Do you think it was just a heart attack or are you suspicious?:
U mean cardiac arrest, lol. Well I don't know why anyone would want to kill MJ on purpose. He was a good person and it just doesn't make sense to want to kill him truthfully. I see no benefit in that for anyone.
Do you think the stress of being famous was what killed him?:
I think the extreme fame that he had and all the scrutiny he was getting did ultimately lead to his addiction, which eventually lead to his cardiac arrest so yes i guess.
Are you going to watch his funeral?:
Or if you're taking this after July 7, did you watch it?:
Yep
What's your favorite video?:
I have so many favs but I'm just gonna list 2 of them. They don't care about us, Billie Jean
Can you do the Thriller dance?:
lol yeah most of it anyway
How about the moonwalk?:
My moonwalk is embarrassing lol.
Was the one-glove thing cool or weird?:
Cool! I loved the glove.
Were you around when he was in the Jackson 5?:
Definately not. That is way back in the day. My parents were little kids lol
When Thriller came out?:
haha naw. I'm 18 I wasn't even born till 1991.

Bad: It was a cool song. I didn't listen to it that much though. Loved the vid though. Esp the dancing.
Beat It: One of my all time fav songs! Not just of his but of all the songs I know.
