*I can still fondly look upon him in the Jackson 5 era before he became a freakshow. Don’t go making yourself look ridiculous by claiming that Michael Jackson was a lucky nobody. He was a phenomenon as a teenager.*

So was Shirley Temple. So what?

*Michael Jackson had more talent at 11 years old that most practiced and rehearsed entertainers will ever have at the highest point in their career.*

The man could dance. Yippee.

*He owned the 1980s, and that’s undeniable. *

The early 80s, which were so chock full of faddish crap that, musically, the era will hardly be remembered for anything else besides John Lennon being murdered.

It’s not just dancing. He was one of the most gifted pop composers of his generation.
