: Kieran I (unwillingly) have to admit that as a child, I was not a Michael fan. I know, I know, it is not normal, but I grew up in the late eighties and early nineties, and this was during his “weird” stage.
The public perception was that he was a bit of a freak andwhen his name was mentioned it was rarely in a sentence with praise. I remember a kid at my primary school in tears once because all of the other kids were teasing him about being a Michael Jackson fan.
But in the last few years, I really began to appreciate the genius that was Michael – and really wish I had been a fan from an earlier age.
