He did cheat on his first wife and wasn't a good father to Julian, but he didn't molest kids.


Personally, I don't think the circumstances of either of their lives should affect whether or not their death was the most shocking. I agree with Tripped, Micheal was probably number one because he died recently. That being said, it was rather shocking. I can't testify to John's death... because, well... I wasn't born when it happened.

It's understandable. John's death was shocking and ******** up. I wasn't there for that, but I know for a fact it was as shocking and premature as Micheal's. Nobody excpected either, but why shoot a badass man who wants peace? That is much worse a death than an overdose. But Micheal had just as great an impact. And he didn't molest children. I declare anyone who believes that retarded. Just as retarded as anyone who thnks Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds is really about LSD. They're just incredibly stupid people.

But Micheal was most likely first because it was more recent. Don't worry about it :]

so your saying that you would rather believe that lucy in the sky with diamonds was about lsd when john lennon said it wasn't, i have more faith in the word of john lennon than that, and why would mj pay off the family of the kid if he didn't do it, also why did mj have a life size doll of a boy at his house?

what they did in their lives would have given motive for the people who killed them

The reason John Lennon's death was most shocking was because it wasn't happening to musicians, it was before tupac and biggy, and the only people getting killed were politicians and such

so why did micheal settle OUT OF COURT?! seems to me if he was innocent he would have faought it tooth and nail. woulda saved him the ungodly MILLIONS he paied out to each family if he could have nipped ONE in the bud. plus a grown man sleeping in the same bed as other people's children is NEVER a good thing....

c'mon have you LISTENED to lucy's lyrics? paired with the fact that the initials of the song spell LSD and a flimsy story about jullian REALLY?!
I can believe the name was a fluke but, if you think about the all the imagery he describes, and this is after he started LSD so you can really tell his lyrics were influenced by it, at least indirectly.

I do love the song as much as the next guy though but I felt I had to say that.

Both deaths were shocking, but I always found John's to be more grotesque and therefore I would have found it more reasonable if he were number #1 in the category.

Buuut, Michael's death was recent so it makes sense why they would do that.

........................


what? is it about the spelling? the grammar? what?!

No, it's nothing.............

obviously you have a problem with it.

I dont.

no you do, you just don't want to talk about it, or rather argue about it.

I prefer not to argue, you have your opinion and I have mine.

I have listened to the lyrics, many times over, and I do realize that the comparison doesn't really make sense :]

Lawls.

Seriously, though. Anyone who has taken LSD can see how the song could be inspired by it. (It's also very lovely to listen to on a good trip.)

Let me steer this back on topic, though.

I can understand a bit of anger over some stupid TV list about such an insensitive topic, but why is everyone so seemingly butt-hurt over it?
