*****
Американский певец Michael Jackson родился в 1958 и умер в 2009 году. Считается самым успешным певцом в истории США, всего было продано 260 миллионов копий его пластинок. В активе музыканта сотни призов и наград, в том числе 15 премий Грэмми, а также его имя 13 раз попадало в Книгу рекордов Гиннесса. После своей смерти в 2009 году, Michael Jackson был официально признан Иконой Музыки и Легендой Америки.
За время своей экстраординарной карьеры Майкл Джексон продал свыше миллиарда релизов по всему миру, выпустил 13 синглов номер один и стал одним из немногих артистов, дважды внесенных в Зал славы рок-н-ролла. Книга рекордов Гиннеса определяет Майкла Джексона не иначе как «Самый успешный артист всех времен». В случае артиста, чье наследие вдохновило несколько поколений любителей музыки и чьи альбомы становятся мультиплатиновыми даже после его ухода из жизни, даже такого громкого определения может быть недостаточно.

*****
Американский певец Michael Jackson родился в 1958 и умер в 2009 году. Считается самым успешным певцом в истории США, всего было продано 260 миллионов копий его пластинок. В активе музыканта сотни призов и наград, в том числе 15 премий Грэмми, а также его имя 13 раз попадало в Книгу рекордов Гиннесса. После своей смерти в 2009 году, Michael Jackson был официально признан Иконой Музыки и Легендой Америки.
За время своей экстраординарной карьеры Майкл Джексон продал свыше миллиарда релизов по всему миру, выпустил 13 синглов номер один и стал одним из немногих артистов, дважды внесенных в Зал славы рок-н-ролла. Книга рекордов Гиннеса определяет Майкла Джексона не иначе как «Самый успешный артист всех времен». В случае артиста, чье наследие вдохновило несколько поколений любителей музыки и чьи альбомы становятся мультиплатиновыми даже после его ухода из жизни, даже такого громкого определения может быть недостаточно.
