Today I noticed the front cover of some newspapers. They said awful things about Michael Jackson. I think that they were wrong to publish such hearsay. Michael Jackson should rest in peace and people should remember him as the King of Pop. He was such an excellent musician and wonderful dancer. This evening on television in the UK there will be a repeat of an interview Michael Jackson did in 2003. Do you remember Michael Jackson in a positive way? How is that you think of him now?

Yes I do. Michael was just a couple of years older than me so I feel like we literally grew up together. I have never been convinced he was a child molester. The accusers were known scammers and I always felt like there would be many more if he actually did that. Truth is only he, GOD, and the accusers know for sure. I do think he was a troubled man and I wish people would let him rest in peace now. I will always remember his beautiful music and soft spokeness. I still remember him as that cute little boy.

Michael Jackson should definitely be remembered in a positive way. Regardless of what people have said of accused him of doing in the past. He was never proven guilty in a court of law to anything and people came forward and said they lied about the allegations they made against him. MJ was a unique artist, he will always be the King of Pop. Nobody in the music business had a greater influence on the industry. He changed and revolutionized the music industry and his music still influences artist today. RIP MJ

I think it is sad how people could bash him still. He has lived a hard life. The tough times he had to fight by himself people found ways to diss him on those and he was left with very little to cover for it. I hate how the press could just get up in his life like they did. Every effort he made to get them to leave him alone, he was called out for being some sort of psycho and i think that it is wrong. We should leave famous artists alone and let them live their lives. We do not have to know where they live and what they do in their spare time. We can live without it.

Hi maximax8, yes, I thing they should just leave him alone to rest in peace, yhat is why I don't buy newspapers, they just trying to get dirt fromt the corpse, that is what they are doing, I have always loved Michael Jackson and had believed in him, he was such a lovely good and caring person and he had given us his music and his talen, he had also done a lot of charity work and given a lot of money. I am just responding to your discussion as I have already watch the programme, doe it not given you more understand of a person he really was?, I just wish they leave him alone. Tamara
