In a strange bit of congruity, I heard the news about Michael while watching this video that was posted to Facebook and youtube.
My main memory of Michael was the series of "Alpha-Bits" commercials he and his brothers did during "Jackson 5ive" cartoons.
I always liked the commercials more than the show, and can't think about Alpha-Bits cereal without breaking into a "Alpha-Bits are tasty!" jingle. I wasn't hip enough to listen to Lou Reed or Roxy Music when I was six years old, so the first record I remember owning was a Jackson 5 single on the back of an Alpha-Bits box.
