My kids are too young. They don't even know who he is (was).
Teenagers probably think he is (was) fake, perverted, or bankrupt.
To me he will always be the King of Pop. I still know dozens of his songs by heart. I can picture my sister and I dancing and singing to his music.
Despite the way he decided to live his life, his talent is (was) undeniable.
If there is singing in heaven (which there should be), I hope we can still sing some Michael Jackson songs.
And do the moon walk.
So goes another legend.
The man drives me nuts; the music is amazing. I'll miss the music.
ReplyDeleteThat last comment was from Raging Stallion, not Maleen. You'd think I'd be computer-literate enough to figure these things out...
ReplyDeleteWhen I think of Michael Jackson, I think of the Disneyland attraction with the 3-D movie. I can't even remember the name of it right now (it isn't there any more), but it was just like him - awesome but weird. He was actually a little after my time (I was a Beatles fan), but he was undeniably talented. It's a pity he had so much tragedy in his life.
ReplyDeleteHow sad that everyone is dying right now? Even though he was a kook at the end, I do love his music.
