Michael Jackson, 25 Jun 2009

Heard about the news about Michael Jackson and almost immediately, his life history was splashed across all the papers. They talk about how he didn't have a childhood, how he was abused by his dad, people are still speculating reasons behind his cosmetic surgeries and paedophilia behaviour. But this time round, with more empathy.

Well, it shows that when it comes to the end of your life journey, people only remember...or choose to only remember the good you have done, the parts of your life story that would touch the hearts of many.
Gone is all the bad coverage on how his nose is falling off, his controversial bleaching of his skin and the rumoured captivation of kids in his never never land. Or rather, these have been neutralised by his traumatised childhood.

Not crazy over MJ, some might be neutral but I've never heard of anyone who hates his music.
He left but he was remembered fondly for his music. I believe that the wish of all artistes.
