This morning tuned to my favourite radio station as usual, I was shocked when it was telling that the “King of Pop”, Michael Jackson has passed away and he was 50 this year.
I felt sad and the feeling was somehow very complicated. It was a unhappy day opening for me. My first approach to his song was at my age 6-7? I was so young and it was a hit that shown on the television most of the time during my childhood. I still remember all his music videos and his signatured “moonwalk” and “robot-style” dancing techniques. Every single of his song was awesome and he was my The Only Superstar as to-date. I could not find anyone that can replace his position and all his song were “the legend”. No specific songs, just ALL the songs, like “beat it”, “You're not alone”, “Thriller”, “Bad”, “Dangerous”, “Billie Jean”, “Black or White”, “Heal the world”, etc. There are too many too many until I love every single song from him. I could not point out which of his song is my most favourite or top favourite, because ALL his songs are my favourite and every single song has my memory. There’s no a better word to describe how I feel for his song and how I feel right now. No doubt we lost a True Legend here! The only voice that electrifies the whole world for years! I really felt sad for the lost of a gifted-voice, a powerful voice, and now he has became the “history”.
I still remember how he looked like when he was still a kid. The seventh child from the Jackson family, a cute black boy with amazing dancing skill and his impressive powerful voice in singing "I'll be there".

Although his skin colour has “turned” to white in his later stage, he was still the legend and the hottest star from 1960s, 1970, 1980 to early 1990s. His life, his singing career and his image have gotten a big hit when he was accused for the sexual child abuse and his marriage after 1990s.
There were people who support him, and people who against him for his behaviour and personal life preference. And I remained leaving no comments, what should we say when we knew no one in this world is perfect. Everyone of us has our own weaknesses and living habit. I couldn’t say he was no wrong but I would rather to keep my point-of-view for a talented singer and a person who rocked the entire music industry, the whole world. Who do not know him? Who do not know his song? I believe there were no one. Even the small kid today also know who is Micheal Jackson. For me, he was the legend and his songs were spirited.
I do not know how should I end this post. Should I say, “Never said goodbye MJ, because your songs and your history were in my memory, you are not alone. May you be in peace in a better world. From another point-of view, your song, your voice has made a better place for you and for me, and the spirit has never died, and your songs are still carry on.”
Listening to his songs now, which makes me feel like tearing. Arhh, don't feel like working today.
