I was shocked to turn on the radio this morning and discover that Michael Jackson, known to his fans and the world as the King of Pop, has died. For the full story, click here.
Whatever you thought of him, no one can deny Jackson's far-reaching influence on popular culture. Dogged by controversy for the latter part of his life, his career made him the most famous man in the world and he soared as high as accusations against him pulled him to the depths. He was indisputably an icon and one of the most intriguing figures of our time.
I will say no more as the press are sure to have gone to town with the story and I'm sure the blogosphere is awash with commentary, but share one of my favourite Jacko songs with you all.
