Props, Rich. I wish I could find my VHS Tape of Motown 25. I remember being a kid seeing that and having my mind blown. Michael Jackson was one of a kind, and you’re right. The likes of him will likely never be seen again.

I choose to turn up the radio and celebrate his music instead of mourning him. He’d like that, I think.

btw, for two GREAT personal story about Michael Jackson, read:

Isn’t the passing of a man who was known as The King of Pop being discussed on Pop Culture Shock as on-topic as you can get?

What a great tribute, Rich. I really enjoyed reading this and re-living similar moments. (I do remember Friday Night Videos!) I’m considering putting up something about my own fan memories of MJ, which are less about moonwalking and more about how many times I practiced kissing the album cover of Thriller so that I would be ready when he and I got married (oh, too much information…!)

And for the record: I was at my daughter’s swim lessons when I read the news on my phone…
