Moonwalk No More

He missed his child­hood and now he’s gonna miss his old age.

Michael Jack­son never had a chance. He had to suc­ceed for his fam­ily, his par­ents’ dreams were depen­dent upon him.

And a boy with that much pres­sure deliv­ers. He works truly hard, so he will be loved. That’s all Michael Jack­son was look­ing for, love.

Bob Lef­setz says it much bet­ter than any­body else.

It’s weird to think of Michael Jack­son actu­ally being dead. My ear­li­est rec­ol­lec­tion of him is all the urban leg­ends that would go around in ele­men­tary school about how he had frozen him­self (or was setup to be frozen) so that he could live for­ever, or some­thing like that.

That and play­ing Michael Jackson’s Moon­walker on my Sega Genesis — though I’m pretty sure I just rented it. I don’t think my par­ents would have bought me a copy of it.

    Yeah, we rented that game too… didn’t let it sit ’til we fin­ished it.
