"Inspired our hearts with his lyrics, moved our souls with his music, and posessed our bodies with his rythms..."

Even though it's been a month since I last wrote here, and a whole bunch of stuff has happened to me.. I've decided not to let this journal be about me. I've decided to dedicate a part of my it to one of the greatest musicians in history. He has been named the king of pop, the prince of the music world and I believe he is the closest I will ever come, to calling anyone a God. Michael Joseph Jackson died on the 25th of of June this year, but he will allways be alive through his fans, his charity work and last, but absolutely not least, through his world famous music.

Michael is likely to be remembered by his work in the music business. He was the one who brought undying hits like "Thriller", "Beat It" and "Bad". His album "thriller" is still the worlds best selling album of all time, and the king even holds the world record of "Most Successful Entertainer of All Time". But that is not all. This artist, entertainer and businessman has also collected millions of dollars through his foundation "Heal the World Foundation". He's helped hundreds of children and poor people in need. A true humanitarian and a good person!

However, as we all know, Michael did not live an easy life. He had many hardships, espescially during the last 10-15 years of his life. Now, no one knows whether or not the accusations thrown at him were true or false. But how much does it matter? The man is legend! Not for the way he acted that was wrong. But because of what he did right. I do not claim that Michael Jackson did nothing weird or unnecesary, because that he did. But seriously! How would you guys be if you'd been in the spotlight since you were five? That's bound to leave marks! I don't think I can say that I'm a huge fan of MJ. I've never spoken much of him, and I don't have any posters, pictures or even soundfiles from him. But seriously! There is hardly a person in this world that has never heard of this man. And rightfully so, because he IS the reigning king of pop. He IS the prince of the music world, and also he is the closest thing I have ever come to calling anyone a God. He may not have lived a very good life. But he certainly made the best of it and helped millions of people on his way.

RIP Michael Joseph Jackson!

I cried watching this.. The world really has lost a bright star, and even though a lot of people may not know what in the world I'm talking about in this entry, I hope I've made at least one person realise how important this man was.
