michael

i dont remember listening to my first michael jackson song, my mum remembers though. she said i was two, and she used to play the likes of michael jackson, stevie wonder and whitney houston. i'd apparently insist on hearing billie jean over and over again. i remember watching my first music video of michael jackson, and i became his fan. i wouldnt say im a die hard fan, but it pains me to know he's left us. the man has been under so much scrutiny, to think he's left us...forever. so much stress, his name isnt even cleared. it fucking sucks that people say that he wasnt a man worth our tears. he revolutionized our culture, pop music. he invented the moonwalk, the music videos, he made us see beats, he knew what us consumerists wanted and left us dying for more. sure, he had his flaws, everyone's flawed, i stand by michael, i think he's a wonderful man, i want to thank him for bringing me through my childhood, giving me good taste, making me realise that dance is a passion, a talent. i want to be able to move my feet like this legend, this god of pop. its like the world has lost another elvis, no one will EVER come close to michael. ever. i think this is sick, i am sick to my stomach. he left us at 50, i have yet to see him live, performing amazing stuff. he has been an inspiration to so many stars of today, you wouldnt see many stars on stage singing their hearts out, dancing their feet off if they werent inspired. michael was a legend, he was... amazing. he was the king of pop, always is. music will never be the same again. rest in peace michael. i'm so mad at life right now, he had to leave us at 50, 50 years on earth, thats short for any human being. and to die of cardiac arrest, sigh, imagine how much stress he must have been going through. and it is our fault, yes people, all of us thirsty for gossip, we wanted to see this man fall, fall from that pedastal, we ridiculed him for his strange eccentric decisions, we made him this way, a sad man. he wanted to do a comeback, show his fans that he's true to his passion, he worked so hard, all in vein. i hate myself for laughing at his choices. he was a great man, and im sorry he had to leave us so early. i will make a trip to neverland someday, something i should do before im 30. take care michael, god bless you and your family. i'll continue to pretend like you were singing p.y.t to me. :/
