| Not to sound like an asshole, but what do you think killed him? Cardiac arrest @ 50... |

| Cardiac arrest alot of times in a relatively young person lot's of times = an OD of some sort. Definitely needs to be an autopsy. |
| crowjane - 6/25/09, 7:02 pm |
| an article mentioned he was on some sort of medication |

| Michael Jackson only owned half of that partial Beatles catalog, Sony/ATV owns the other part. |
| capndannn - 6/26/09, 4:01 am |
| i could've sworn he already lost or sold the publishing over the last few years |
| BigPuddin - 6/26/09, 4:01 am |
| I believe that's when he lost half of the catalog. |
| capndannn - 6/26/09, 4:09 am |
| no it's divided into 50% publishing and 50% writing and he basically bought the publishing, lennon and mccartney always had the other 50% |
| BigPuddin - 6/26/09, 4:12 am |
| Well whatever share he had, he sold half of it to Sony/ATV. |
| ManxomeFoe - 6/26/09, 4:15 am |
| nah, he still owns most of the rights. anyway: wh - 06/25/09 - 6:31 pm (74.10.76.242) he was dead a long time ago but he's dead again and to whoever thinks cardiac arrest can't happen at 50: I'm sure Michael Jackson lived a bizarre enough lifestyle that this isn't unlikely, not to mention that touring the way he does can really take a toll on you (pops stars are hospitalized for exhaustion all the time) and while 50 is young, he was probably practicing pretty hard. He was a crazy perfectionist. I'm sure no amount of telling him to slow down was keeping him from overdoing it practicing for this comeback tour. Anyway, cue the slew of people who tell everyone else why we're dumb for caring. RIP MJ. |
| BigPuddin - 6/26/09, 4:18 am |
| Here's the Snopes article where they basically say that he owned half of the publishing and Sony owns the other half. Michael Jackson owned ATV and Sony paid him $95 million to merge their catalogs so I'm not sure what would happen now, but I doubt Michael Jackson could leave Paul McCartney the publishing rights in his will. |
| Aphorism - 6/26/09, 11:20 am |
| It seems to me he lived his life like a scandal in the wind. Right about now, he looks like he did in Thriller. |

| http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=42291868&blogId=497035326 He Knew. Years ago Michael and I were having a deep conversation about life in general. I can't recall the exact subject matter but he may have been questioning me about the circumstances of my Fathers Death. At some point he paused, he stared at me very intensely and he stated with an almost calm certainty, "I am afraid that I am going to end up like him, the way he did." I promptly tried to deter him from the idea, at which point he just shrugged his shoulders and nodded almost matter of fact as if to let me know, he knew what he knew and that was kind of that. 14 years later I am sitting here watching on the news an ambulance leaves the driveway of his home, the big gates, the crowds outside the gates, the coverage, the crowds outside the hospital, the Cause of death and what may have led up to it and the memory of this conversation hit me, as did the unstoppable tears. A predicted ending by him, by loved ones and by me, but what I didn't predict was how much it was going to hurt when it finally happened. The person I failed to help is being transferred right now to the LA County Coroners office for his Autopsy. All of my indifference and detachment that I worked so hard to achieve over the years has just gone into the bowels of hell and right now I am gutted. I am going to say now what I have never said before because I want the truth out there for once. Our relationship was not "a sham" as is being reported in the press. It was an unusual relationship yes, where two unusual people who did not live or know a "Normal life" found a connection, perhaps with some suspect timing on his part. Nonetheless, I do believe he loved me as much as he could love anyone and I loved him very much. I wanted to "save him" I wanted to save him from the inevitable which is what has just happened. His family and his loved ones also wanted to save him from this as well but didn't know how and this was 14 years ago. We all worried that this would be the outcome then. At that time, In trying to save him, I almost lost myself. He was an incredibly dynamic force and power that was not to be underestimated. When he used it for something good, It was the best and when he used it for something bad, It was really, REALLY bad. Mediocrity was not a concept that would even for a second enter Michael Jackson's being or actions. I became very ill and emotionally/ spiritually exhausted in my quest to save him from certain self-destructive behavior and from the awful vampires and leeches he would always manage to magnetize around him. I was in over my head while trying. I had my children to care for, I had to make a decision. The hardest decision I have ever had to make, which was to walk away and let his fate have him, even though I desperately loved him and tried to stop or reverse it somehow. After the Divorce, I spent a few years obsessing about him and what I could have done different, in regret. Then I spent some angry years at the whole situation. At some point, I truly became Indifferent, until now. As I sit here overwhelmed with sadness, reflection and confusion at what was my biggest failure to date, watching on the news almost play by play The exact Scenario I saw happen on August 16th, 1977 happening again right now with Michael (A sight I never wanted to see again) just as he predicted, I am truly, truly gutted. Any ill experience or words I have felt towards him in the past has just died inside of me along with him. He was an amazing person and I am lucky to have gotten as close to him as I did and to have had the many experiences and years that we had together. I desperately hope that he can be relieved from his pain, pressure and turmoil now. He deserves to be free from all of that and I hope he is in a better place or will be. I also hope that anyone else who feels they have failed to help him can be set free because he hopefully finally is. The World is in shock but somehow he knew exactly how his fate would be played out some day more than anyone else knew, and he was right. I really needed to say this right now, thanks for listening. ~LMP |

| top because I just read that MJ is being buried... without his brain. They are keeping the brain to
do further testing on why he might have died. I wonder how long it'll be before we have an MJ robot
using his brain and memories. Story here |
