Michael Jackson, one year later

MJ’s death still makes me sad. It was so untimely, and so preventable, and it seems like he might have been on the cusp of a genuine creative reawakening. The life leading up to the end is as sad a story as I can think of. And the music keeps sounding better and better with all the new attention it’s been getting. It continues to inspire new ideas in me.
