The King of Pop

Everyone has a favorite singer. (Or composer...) What's yours? I know MINE is the King of Pop, AKA Michael Jackson. Why do I like Michael Jackson so much? I don't know. I HATE, HATE, HATE Pop music... yet Michael Jackson is the King of Pop. Here's how my list goes of favorite singers:

1. Michael Jackson (Fav. Song: Man in the Mirror)
2. Elvis Presley (Fav. Song: Jailhouse Rock)
3. Stevie Wonder (Fav. Song: I Just Called to Say I Love You)
4. Paul Simon (Fav. Song: Sounds of Silence)
5. Paul McCartney (Fav. Song: Eleanor Rigby)

Yes, I know. They're either dead, or old people. Michael Jackson: Dead. Elvis Presley: Dead. Stevie Wonder: Sixty-something. Paul Simon: SUPER OLD. Paul McCartney: He's been knighted...
I encourage you to listen to my favorite songs from these singers. (People. I know Elvis Presley took drugs. He's still my second favorite singer.) These people don't sing songs about TOTALLY inappropriate things like modern singers. (I'm talking to my 3 LEAST favorite singers, Justin Beaver, Katy  Perry, and Selena Gomez.) You're thinking: Wouldn't a song that had the words I Love You end up being inappropriate? Answer: No. He's singing about his daughter.                                                  Michael Jackson \/
This is a picture of what Michael Jackson looked like singing, 'We are the World' Great song. You should check it out. Really fancy outfit, though. Too fancy... BYE PEEPS! I hope you liked learning about the totally awesome King of Pop. Anybody says that he has a bad voice, I will hunt you down to the ends of the earth...

The Art and Aspirations of a Commenter 
I believe in the power of a free exchange of ideas. I also recognize that words or access to
some information can be of harm to others, intentionally or unintentionally. As a
commenter, I therefore aspire to participate responsibly in the great online conversation
 by:
* treating all bloggers with respect.
* seeking first to understand what is being said.
* celebrating another's accomplishments.
* using school appropriate language.
* rephrasing ideas in the blog that made me think, made me feel, or helped me learn
to let the blogger know his/her voice has been heard.
* commenting specifically and positively, without criticism. If I disagree, I will
comment appropriately, politely stating my perspective.
* being mindful always that I may be a role model to my audience, especially if they 
are younger than I.
* making no reference to, link to, and/or giving access to any information that may 
 be inappropriate for a school setting.
* asking at least one question in my comment with the hopes of continuing a
conversation and deepening thinking.
* using a triple check before submitting any comment: Would I be happy to have my 
mother read this comment? My grandmother? My favorite teacher?
