Michael Jackson: King of Pop Died Too Soon

This morning, I was shocked to learn that Michael Jackson has passed away. As songs from his fantastic career was played on the radio, I could sing along in my heart. I had it all in my head.

All of a sudden, tears ran down my cheeks.

I never thought I would react to Michael Jackson in such a way. I grew up with Michael Jackson's fantastic career and songs which touches my heart.



I truly remembers his songs, great dance moves on stage and his music videos. And it is all that truly matters for an artist for me.

Michael Jackson inspired the musical industry with his dance moves. Various artist improvised his songs and adapted into cartoons and even movies.

He will always be remembered for the moonwalk. The great things he had done by giving back to the community via various charity campaigns and funds.

I will always remember how he touched my heart through his songs like Ben, Billie Jean, Heal the World, Black or White, We are the World, etc.

Michael Jackson died too soon. Last week, Mix FM was just talking about his upcoming concert in July @ London. I was looking forward to it.

Throughout his dramatic life, Michael Jackson went through various spotlight, especially on his court cases. But all these while, I do not know the real reason why, for that in my heart, whenever I read his cases on the media, I felt bad for him. I couldn't imagine he would be that sort of person. Perhaps, I never let myself believe so.

And when he had to sell Neverland - his dream home, declared bankruptcy ... I felt bad for him.

Michael was working on his concert entitled "This Is It" ... the final curtain call for his career before he collapsed. Part of me, when tears ran down my cheeks, I felt bad as of why couldn't he get that last moment he wanted in his life. I felt so sad for him.

I would call Michael Jackson as the Elvis Presley of my era. He's a legend. He will definitely be missed and remembered.
