Some from Metallica/Guns n Roses/ Nirvana. And other pop music too from Michael Jackson/Madonna.

Has anybody ever noticed that many of the most popular bands of the 1970s were formed in the 1960s? And I even have late 1960s clothes shop ads featuring Afghan coats, flared trousers, maxi skirts, etc.

So many “70s fashions” are really 1960s. What was cutting edge fashion in 1967/1968 was being worn by the likes of Noele Gordon in Crossroads by 1973!

The 70s were the 60s hangover decade, when the brilliant music of the mid-to-late 1960s slowly went stale. I remember hearing songs in the mid-1970s and wondering if they were mid-to-late 1960s.

But the 70s revival of the 1950s was excellent.

The ’80s were, like the ’70s, another decade of music.

I don’t really agree with rewriting decades to massage my ego.

Noted alot of feedback regarding the passing of Michael Jackson. Lots of media coverage in the US also. I believe that world known artists such as MJ, Elvis, Eddy Arnold, etc., deserve the media attention for the mark they have made in the world. These artists have touched every life in one way or another and of course in their time frames.

I really appreciate venues like VH1 classics for their coverage when a great personality passes. They did wonderful tributes to Syd on the anniversary of his passing and Richard on his passing. VH1 seems to hit them all with great music and information on the singer/artist. My preference to the typical news media.

Love to the world.

As you, FEd, I also read it somewhere and I thought it was true, then I looked for a confirmation, because I had the time to do it and I was online for other reasons.

I can’t imagine how many times I believe something (even more important than this) it’s true, because I can’t check it.

Anyway, I don’t know if the news has now been confirmed or not. If it wasn’t, I think the man who invented it is very irresponsible.

Yes, a bit more consideration would be good.

There are a lot of irresponsible people out there, blurting out half-truths and rumours to the waiting world. I guess it’s no big deal to them if they don’t have to deal with the consequences, but you’d like to think that they’d have a bit more consideration (for his fans if nobody else).

And aren’t there plenty of people waiting, like rats with their noses twitching, for a new scrap of information to tear to pieces? It’s enough to make you sick.

I found this news on some websites today, this is only one of them.

Since it doesn’t seem official news (because I couldn’t find it in any official newspapers, websites or agencies), “The man behind the world’s biggest online MJ fan club”, to quote the article, should be very careful to give it out to the world. Doesn’t he realize the possible consequences?

Lots of blogs and forums all around the world are now sharing this news and discussing it, taking for granted it’s all true.

Going on this way, it doesn’t matter if it happened or not, because, probably, someone will make it real soon.

Enjoy yourself, Jan… and a Happy Birthday to you, too.
