Yeah, well, the operative word is "industry" rather than "you U.K. people" wouldn't you say? If I were to replace what you said with "you U.S. people" and "John Lennon", I think you might object!

And I'm not sure we can 100% blame the "music business" as such for what happened. What about his father (as a father rather than a manager)? And after all, no one compelled MJ to live so very far beyond his means that he had to take on such an absurdly punishing schedule. RIP anyway.

Sorry, off topic again ...
