It’s good to know I wasn’t the only one who just felt heartbroken..like the world just felt a little more empty when he died.

I’ve heard a lot of jokes at work. And I’ve bitched out every single fucker who dared tell them. Even a manager. It’s very disrespectful, no matter the person to speak badly about them or tell jokes at their expense after they’ve passed. No exceptions.

He was a wonderful musician who changed a generation of music. 80’s pop was ruled by Michael. He was SO very talented..so, so talented. I’ve been a fan of his since I was reallllly young. He made very creative music videos and was an amazing dancer.

It’s so hard picking a favorite song though! lol I bought Thriller 25 the Deluxe Edition that came with the Number Ones DVD..and I’ve about wore that DVD out lol. I love ALL the songs, and from start to finish, each song just makes me happy. When I went to California in 2008, I went to the Virgin Megastore and bought Bad and Number Ones on CD and found a really awesome brown Thriller shirt in a vintage shop. The day he died, I listened to my CD’s all night until I went to work..and then I listened to my songs I have on my Blackberry and I wore my Thriller shirt …although I got in trouble for not being in dress code, I didn’t care lol.

I have a couple of recent memories of his music though…

I had a party for my friend’s birthday..well we had been drinking and a friend of mine tried to argue that Fall Out Boy’s music video for Beat It is better than MJ’s..and I said I have a DVD of music videos and will prove that his is better. Well, we ended up dancing and singing drunkenly to his music all night till 2 a.m. when we started tos lightely sober up and question why we were listening because we couldn’t remember lol.

And I bought Eddie Murphy’s Delirious 2 pay days ago and there’s a joke about as long as you’re a singer, you’ll get the women – even MJ who isn’t the most masculine looking or sounding guy and then Eddie sang a little bit of one of his songs..he does a good impression btw! That, in turn, reminded me of the song and music video of the song Eddie and MJ sang together

He will be greatly missed…and shame on anyone who makes jokes and talks shit about him now… :/

“So Ive learned that loves not possession
And I learned, love wont wait
Now Ive learned, that love needs expression
But Ive learned too late”

may his legacy be that we remember we ARE the world…and that love should be expressed. now.

I loved his music, loved what he (and his family b/c I love me some Janet) did for music. ::sigh:: I was holding out for him to re-record that Beatles music he stole (ok maybe not stole but out-bit) from Paul McCartney.

oh… any FYI – Blankets’ real name is Prince Michael Jackson III.

Make it a better place.
For you and for me and the entire human race.
There are people dying
And if we cared enough for the living

Make a better place for you and for me.
