[ listen ]

The King of Pop, and probably the music industry's biggest superstar ever, suddenly up and died yesterday. I still find it hard to believe. If you ask me, his #1 1979 hit "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" is one of the best dance songs ever.

Michael Jackson tributes like this really nice one you can hear on NPR have been pouring in from all directions today.
