Just wanted to add IMO - it is shocking he is gone so young but I am not sad about it at all. Fact is, I was a big fan of his back in the 80's (grew up listening to his albums) and yes, he is a musical genius but he was completely tarnished in my eyes when he went so weird and started hanging out with little boys, having parties with them and having them sleep in his bed -- blech.
Sorry, I just can't have respect for him as an artist when he is doing the things in his personal life and exploiting his wealth & fame to take advantage of young boys who idolize him....sorry but there will be no tears shed here.
