If you are living in planet Earth, I am quite sure that you would had read news that Micheal Jackson had passed on due to cardiac arrest. I was in shock on that morning when I read about the news on Channel News Asia. Sadness seep in after the initial shock as I had lost someone whom I idolized greatly when I was a child.
I remembering standing in awe in front of electronic stores selling television sets that were showing his MTV. Hits like Smooth Criminal and Thriller were two Mtvs that left an indelible mar on my childhood. I tried dancing like him but failed ultimately as my body is simply not make for dancing.
God had given him a talent to create great music that can break down all barriers. Be it race, language or religion. You just can't help but to groove along with his songs or stand still there watching his Mtvs. It is just sad that with the talent came along the unwanted baggage of having a lonely life.
People don't normally realize what greatness is until it had left us. I don't think there will ever be another King of Pop. I am just glad that people of my generation had the great privilege of seeing him when he was in his prime. Rest in peace. Sad I might be but all party must come to an end. I am just glad that you had left a great legacy of music to all of us.
