Yes, just been on the news of the Elvis-sized death of The King Of Pop himself Michael Jackson died of a cardiac arrest.
It's not confirmed yet, but they are treating it as though it's him, so there can be no doubt it is indeed Jackson.
Massive shock or what? Or not?
Edit... It just got confirmed at 23:20GMT.
Well, I guess it's
RIP Michael Jackson 1958-2009

This is like Benoit, Eddie etc all rolled into one with me. I'm devastated. Really, really, really sad. I grew up listening to nothing but Michael Jackson songs (no, really all I had was four MJ albumbs at one point) as a kid and the guy was my hero really. RIP to the King of Pop.

I'm listening to the radio atm and every station by Radio 1 (assholes) is playing MJ songs.

Wasn't it about 8?
Wanna Be Startin' Something Billie Jean Beat It Thriller
Then possibly The Girl Is Mine, PYT (Pretty Young Thing) and Human Nature.

Beat It and Billie Jean both went to number one in the Billboard Hot 100.

Thriller is the biggest selling album in the world, but it was Bad that had the most songs top the chart.
Bad The Way You Make Me Feel Man In The Mirror I Just Can't Stop Loving You Dirty Diana Liberian Girl
And then you have Smooth Criminal, Another Part Of Me and Leave Me Alone. What an album!
I still think Dangerous is his best and that HIStory is seriously underrated.
