I'd be remiss without saying

I'm deeply saddened that people are taking this extremely sad situation as an opportunity to trash a great man's legacy. The entire world is mourning, how powerful is that? Countries that we consider enemies are grieving with us as we all sit, watch the videos and reminisce on the role that his music has played in our collective childhood. As an adolescent, I remember finding my parents vinyls and insisting on playing them all, as my brother and I donned afro wigs and performed them all. My fave christmas song is "Give love on Christmas Day". As a matter of fact my favorite songs in most genre's are either his or inspired by him. Mr. Jackson will be sorely missed, but I would like to thank him for giving us a wealth of memories!!!!
