A legend has passed on…RIP Michael Jackson!
26 Jun

I love this picture of him. So cute!
So this morning, I woke up to an annoying sms and 2 really sad smses.
“omg, michael Jackson died” – Lea
I’m like, all blurry eyed, rubbing eyes open browser and twitter, straightaway, the news got confirmed!
My reaction straightaway went from shocked to sad. I was looking forward to his comeback tour and Asia was in his itenary. I told my brother, I would beg borrow and steal to go watch him.
Michael Jackson IS and ALWAYS BE the King of Pop. He made so many awesome songs and songs which you can still remember until the day you die. He made awesome videos which have so much story and changed so many people’s lives.

MJ with a dog..

and tiger!
The whole day I was listening to Michael Jackson’s songs. All the ballads made me all emo and teary eyed. It is such a sad news for a friday morning. I switch on CNN to triple confirm and so it was true. I don’t know him personally, but I think he’s an entertainer who has made a difference in pop music and his music is part of my life.
So screw you or whoever who thinks Michael Jackson dying has nothing to do with me, because it does and I am saddened by the news okay! Also to all you haters out there, nose jokes now is just plain disrespectful! He is an ICON and should be respected!
I remember when I was young, Thriller used to scare the shit outta me. My brother would threaten to play the song and I’d climb every table and chair to switch off the cassette player! haha.

A not so scary thriller picture! hahaha. Can’t put the scary one. Still get chills!
We had his cassette mostly. As in the 90′s CD’s were so mahal. We listened to his songs as we were growing up.We had videos of his History album. I remember watching people cry as his statue was launched/shown.

He was such an icon that we even played his video game on Nintendo. Funny I tell you, how he walked and held his crotch and it was the Smooth Criminal video. lols.The game’s aim was suppose to be like killing all the bad people, like in the video. He wore the exact white outfit. lols.

He came down in 1997 to Malaysia. I remember we begged our parents to take us there. But they didn’t as we had exams. DAMN YOU EXAMS!!! GAH! Because of exams I missed the legend’s concert here in KL. We were so devastated. haihs. sad sad.

Crotch holding, his fav past time:)
His dance moves were ICONIC. He practically inspired all the other artists to dance like him. Moonwalk? omg such lagendary move. Melody, a friend of mine, wondered if he is now teaching the angels in Heaven how to moonwalk! hahaha. Good one!

“Heal the World” was a song we sang like all the time in choir. I remember in form 1/2 we sand with our class. Had so much fun with my classmates and of course, singing this song was also my favourite as it is so meaningful and the melody is inspiring. Michael taught us to go green way before going green was cool!
I never thought Michael Jackson would pass on so fast! I mean, he was only 50! I feel sad for my children who will never get to live in the same era as Michael did. I hope his family is doing well and his music will always live on in many of our hearts!
I heart you MJ!

Michael Jackson
RIP 1958-2009

karen, i went for michael jackson’s concert! i was 9 then! was my first concert and hands down best concert i’ve ever been too. the concert opened with him coming out of this spaceship thingy. so surreal! ahaha. i cried the whole day today, was really sad. i remember as a kid i used to create a folder with michael jackson articles and pics! haha. ;P
I heart MJ very much too! Regardless of his weird factor, Michael truly is a great singer and entertainer that i believe, nobody can ever top…
Ohmigosh, feel like tears are swelling up already!
Sad hor. Even now it’s kinda weird. I was just only watching this interview he has with Oprah in 1990s and it was mad surreal lor. He seemed like such a nice person.
YOU KNOW RIGHT… i saw him in person!
Probably his shoe only lah. What happened was when he was in malaysia (dont know when)… but he went to 1 utama’s toys r us. They closed the whole 1 utama for him. Coz me and my mum went to 1u and was like why got so many people wan and why they dont let anyone go in. Next thing you know got bodyguards all surrounding the entrance, cameras flashing, i got shoved and i saw a shoe, i cant rmbr what happened, but hey.. i can safely say Michael Jackson was probably only no more than 3m away from me!
But sad hor. Listening to his songs is a bit creepy now.
They closed down the WHOLE ONE UTAMA or just Toys ‘R’ Us? Why so the ter rer one?
Sarah, haiyo, lucky you, I jeles!
Lea, we must have a MJ tribute hour at our sleepover party to mourn over MJ…:(
PS, lols, you saw his shoes??? Now I must go hug you cos you’re the closest thing to MJ I can ever see (well, in connection!) lols!!!
Yeah, I remember reading about him going to a mall in Malaysia and them shutting it down…
Listening to his song is not creepy!! hahaha.
Owh wells. We shall all mourn his death!
I love him so much. He died at such a young age!!!!!! I willl remember his music forever! He’ll live on forever in my heart!! i own all the shoes he wore through his life and i have every single outfit he ever owned exspecially the thriiler jacketi have 5 of them and i saw him in real lif ein neverland it was so cool i cant wait to get the new sneakers coming out with the pics of him on it im going to wear them to school.!.!
I am only 11 years old, and I am asshamed that I hated him. Now,He’s gone, and now I have no idol. A few days after his passing, it rought tears to my eyes. I love you Michael, and I never will stop loving you.
