For me it's more then just his music. I have been listening his music since I was little girl and I have followed his career my whole life.
Seriously: one must indeed go beyond the celebrity to the artist and his art. Yet who has used his celebrity in a more generous, loving and selfless way than Michael Jackson?
From visiting children's hospitals in every city he toured in, to inviting busloads of terminally ill and underprivileged children to his home for decades, to donating hundreds of millions of dollars to humanitarian causes, he has consistently used his fame to express perfect, unconditional love. I love him, because he is a mega talent & a charismatic sweet guy.
