On Thursday 25th June at 2.30pm, Michael Joseph Jackson was pronounced dead. Which means in SG it was Friday 26th June at 7.30am.
This legendary Pop star was a fashion icon for most people across the world. He was an amazing performer, entertainer and most importantly he has touched many lives, including mine. The world today mourns at this huge loss. He was talented with a wonderful voice and amazing dance moves.
Ok that paragraph sounded so serious!.. ok but really he was a true legend and our family used to be and still is a huge fan of MJ. My mum would play the LD every morning when I was between ages of 5-9 years. Me and my sister would sing the tune of his songs but NEVER get the words right.. LOL those younger days. His music was truely amazing and unlike any other pop star, he's got a unique sense of originality.. and im talking bout the 'bling blings'! Oh yeah... Impressive performer and he will forever and always stay in most hearts of youngsters today. And im talking bout me! Awesome dude..
For the last 2 days I have had enjoyed MTV's 1-2 hours long of MJ tribute. Hits like 'Black or White' , 'Thriller' , 'Bad' and many others brought back memories from the past. Believe it or not but I used to find the music video 'Thriller' scary.. HAHAHA Yesterday while watching it over again I realized how hilarious it was.. LOL. Oh well but there was also a moment.. JUST FOR A MOMENT where the song 'You Are Not Alone' played on MTV.. I was a tincy whinney bit away from shedding a tear. It shows how much he inspired me at a young age. He was truely an inspiration to many people across the world.
