Michael Jackson had a voice which was sublime, other worldly for it's softness and notable for it's soft childlike qualities even when he was in his 40's. Castrati were castrated men who by nature or human action had similar voices and were common in the 17 and 1800's.
His voice did not change much from "ABC-123", to Thriller. He got bigger, his voice got bigger, but it never really broke. His songs were timeless and there was much more to him than just a singing voice. His creative genius, hard work and love for his art make him an unparalleled talent. His music will be listened to and enjoyed for the next 500 years. We were all privileged to have lived in the same era as he.
Maybe that's a REAL reason to hate Joe? That would be some very fouled up stuff if he'd done something like that...
