What are the odds? I turned on my MP3 which contains over 17,000 songs at present, select shuffle play and the first song that came on was Michael Jackson, 'Gone To Soon' from the Dangerous Album, very eerie!
At the age of 50 Michael Jackson is dead. A rather unusual character he may have been; however, he is certainly up there with Elvis and The Beatles in regards to shaping and influencing popular music. A look at Amazon.co.uk website shows the impact his death has made.
