Rest In Peace Michael Jackson

Thu Jun 25, 2009, 4:34 PM
  • Mood: Sorrow
  • Listening to: She's Out Of My Life - Michael Jackson
  • Watching: Sky News
I saw him in Wembley when I was six years old.

I saw him by chance in Paris, waving and smiling from a hotel window at a crowd of fans, on the same year.

I watched Moonwalker as a child. And I know it off by heart.

I dressed up as him for nearly every fancy dress party, theres even footage of me as doing a mini performance in my mum's bedroom.

I have a huge poster of him on my wall, an official doll of him sitting on my shelf, and a signed print on my wall.

I have every album he produced. And I know all the lyrics.

I defended him for every negative media coverage. And still do to this day.



Michael Jackson was not just a musical icon, he was a cultural icon. He influenced the world in thousands of ways. He was right up there with the best, James Brown, Elvis, Kurt Cobain, Freddie Mercury, and those still living, Paul McCartney, Madonna, Quincy Jones...

It is a sad, sad, sad day not just for music, but for the whole world.

It pains me to know he died surrounded by all this cruel media influence. Whether it was true or not does not rule out the great things he did and he will be remembered for them.

It also pains me that he died so so so young.

His legacy will live on, through his music, and through me and the millions of surely-grieving fans out there today. I am in mourning and in deep grief.

All my love and deepest condolences to his family.

I loved you Michael and I still will continue to. You will live on.

Hope you are in peace now, away from this cruel destroyed world.
:heart: :rose: :heart:

I still cannot believe it.. I mean, it's Michael Jackson! It's so hard to think of the world without him... but I agree with you 100%, his legacy will live on through every single fan and so many different musical performers that have been inspired by him.

I feel so much for his family... it must be so hard for them... even more so because of the media, I cannot believe that they could even think to print the photo of him being taken into the ambulance... it's not fair and it's a photo no one wants to see... I think it's so disrespectful... =\

Hopefully his family will open Neverland to the public like he wanted and we can all have the chance to go there and experience his amazing life through his dream...
