RIP MJ: PARIS SAYS GOODBYE

For a young girl to be living her entire life in secrecy to shroud herself from the prying eyes of the public, it took an immense amount of courage for Paris Jackson to come up on stage, in front of millions of people, just to say how much she misses and loves her daddy.

"I just wanted to say, ever since I was born,Daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine,and I just wanted so say I love him so much."

- Paris Katherine Jackson

On the 7th of July, thousands of people congregated at the Staples Center to remember the legacy of the eternal King of Pop, Michael Jackson. I watched the memorial service on the net along with many millions of his fans and i was very touched by the outpouring of emotions from MJ's family, friends and his legion of fans.


And to the people out there who question the trio's biological parentage, i'd suggest they give it a rest. Biological or not, Michael has given them all the love that a father can give to his children and we know that they have grown up to become decent responsible kids. At the very least, we could give credit to Michael being a great parent.


To Prince, Paris & Blanket, i can only imagine how painful it has been for you to lose the most important person in your life, but be strong and always remember that your dad will always be looking out for you from above.

RIP MJ: IN LOVING MEMORY OF

IN LOVING MEMORY OF

MICHAEL JOSEPH JACKSON
1968 - 2009

May you moonwalk forever in the heavens...

I woke up this morning to the shocking news of Michael Jackson's passing. Honestly, it was so sudden that it took me an entire day to before the sad news finally sank in.

Michael has been an idol of mine from young, actually, my very first idol, ever since i heard his song, Thriller. I grew up during the post-Bad era, sometime during the Dangerous and HIStory era. I bought every single album and listened to all his songs. He was an inspiration to me and no one knows this, but i started writing music because of him.

As much as i am saddened by the news of his demise, i would think that Michael would rather we celebrate his life and not grieve. I've been listening to his songs all day and i feel happy just listening to them all over again.

On a personal note, i believe that he was just a lost boy in a man's body, much like Peter Pan, who he always saw himself as, to the extent that he sculpted his face into the liking of Peter. He could trust no one in his life and as he turned to children as friends he could trust and relate to, he was eventually accused for paedophilia. All in all, he was probably just a very misunderstood individual.

Even so, Michael was still one of the greatest things to happen to mankind and the joy and happiness he gave to us was insurmountable. We will always remember how you made the world a better place to live in through your music. May you always moonwalk forever in the heavens.
