Paul McCartney: 'Massively Talented Boy-Man'

Paul McCartney: 'Massively Talented Boy-Man'

"I feel privileged to have hung out and worked with Michael. He was a massively talented boy-man with a gentle soul. His music will be remembered forever and my memories of our time together will be happy ones. I send my deepest sympathy to his mother and the whole family, and to his countless fans all around the world." -- Paul McCartney (at the BPI Awards in 1984 with Jackson, Pete Townsend, and Kim Wilde)
