Michael Joseph Jackson, often referred to as The King of Pop, is the biggest-selling solo artist of all time, with over 750,000,000 sales. Jackson is an inductee of the Songwriters Hall of Fame, and double inductee to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. His awards include 8 Guinness World Records, 13 Grammy Awards, and 26 Billboard Awards.

When he passed away in the summer of 2009, Michael Jackson was in the midst of rehearsals for his final tour, an ambitious 50-date engagement? It's hard not to watch This Is It without feeling a mixture of sorrow and elation.

Falling in love with you wasn't my plan
I never thought I would be your lover
C'mon just understand. this is it."
-- Michael Jackson "This Is It"
