Michael Jackson's Death Story - How Did He Really Die?. Content Warning.
June 25, 2009 is the day show business lost its reigning king and the world lost one of the most famous people of all time - the King of Pop, Rock and Soul, Michael Jackson. In 2009, he was only 50 years old and was eagerly waiting for his young children Prince, Paris and Blanket to finally see their father on stage. At that time, Michael was working on the comeback series "This is It", which would have been a real sensation in show business. The news of Michael Jackson's death was a complete shock to everyone. But what happened that day? If you look at Wikipedia now, you'll see that the official cause of death was cardiac arrest due to acute Propofol and benzodiazepine poisoning.

Top Music Videos of the Eighties
Looking back at the 1980s is a serious nostalgia trip for me. Being eleven years old or so at the nexus of MTV and the music video revolution (in an era before the world had been brought into the wild west of our looming, dystopian, cyberpunk future--though it was on the cusp) was a real mind trip. YouTube has thankfully provided the avenue in which an aging member of Generation X can look back on the pre-Grunge days when POP (in both the literal and figurative sense; i.e. Pepsi and Coke fueled the career status of so many fading into oblivion singers and artists of the era) ruled the video airwaves.
