Farethee well Michael, you creepy bastard

People who write off the king of pop because of the child abuse allegations have missed the mark. I think most people who ever watch his rare post 90's press appearances can agree MJ was bat shit insane by then. Its sad that after putting in all the work into staging his comeback, he died.

I'm not looking to wax philosophical, or gossip about the bizarre circumstances of Jackson's death, but I do have one thing to share with you all...

A somewhat rare MTV short piece-milled together from footage from a lesser known anime called Mighty Space Miners. This is one of several Cartoon Sushi shorts(I briefly discussed this MTV animated anthology a month or five ago in the entry entitled "Cartoons") that were made this way, collectively known as UltraCity 6060. Clips are cut up, poorly dubbed and displayed out of context to mixed effect. This is one of the better ones. I like to think of it as what would have happened had things not gone south for Michael in 2003.

I present UltraCity 6060: Planet Jackson


What I love most is Quincy Jones in the clip looks like a white Quincy Jones. I read somewhere that computer is supposed to be Donnie Osmond or something.
