OMG, this is so tragic. What a loss to the music community. He was a lyrical genius and his songs certainly touched my heart in a big way.
My heart goes out to his wife and family.

Very sorry to hear this. His songwriting and Michael's performing were a match made in heaven. I suppose they're both in heaven now, continuing the collaboration!

The first song I learned to sing was, The Song Remembers When sung by Trisha Yearwood.
I never knew until recently that Mr. Prestwood wrote that beautiful song. Add that AWESOME voice of an Angel, wow!!
Rest easy sir, tell MJ how much he is missed.
