I Walk Alone

Well,two things happened today.Wait,make that four:Former 70's Charlie's Angel star Farah Fawcett has pased away,and our dearly beloved,always cherised and forever remembered King of Pop,Michael Jackson has passed away,I visited an art exhibition of Leonardo Da Vinci(Hopefully there's a DeCaprio soon) and my test results are back.

Let's start with MJ.I know the whole world is talking about it right now,but I'm not supposed to shy away from it here.I'm not really a big fan of his,but I do love his music.Tell me,have you ever hear anyhing like his during his reign?Out of all those heavy rock,AC/DC,Rolling Stones,all that,they're called 70's or 80's music.However,MJ's music ain't called that,but Michael Jackson music.Even now you wouldn't find the song old,would you?Thriller,Bad,Dangerous,Billie Jean,they don't belong is any era,even now,because they're timeless.

I could vividly recall my younger days when there were VHS tapes and I was watching the Thriller video.It was up to he part when the zombies were comingout of the grave and all those stuff,and I would cover my eyes and shout:"STOP IT!STOP IT!STOP IT!" and when the scene passes:"It is over yet?"Hehe,still gives me the creeps.

Forget all those molestation chargs or anything like that.It's a fact that stars(or in this case,megastars) are also human.I'm not sayng he's guilty,it's just that his life is constantly on the centre stage of media entertainment,without privacy.Then all of a sudden all those false rumours spread and there you go,trouble.
You know,I thinkhe kind of pushed himself a bit too far in announcing his 50 concerts and peope are saying he's doing it for the money,but I don't really bother as long as he loves wh he's doing.

He passed away while practicing.How ragic was that?Doing something that he's been doing for over 30 years.When he was gone,people didn't mourn,but celebrated his life.I believe that there could not be a better way for this occasion.I'm sure MJ wouldn't want to see his legion of die-hard fans cry and I bet he would have been glad so see he sight of people celebrating is life around the world.God bless Michael Jackson.You've thrilled us all,showed us the good in life,lived it dangerously and came out on top and beat all the odds.You are a legend.

Now,I think I'll continue with this post tomorrow because I gota go for another tournament tomorrow and it's late.However I'll promise you I'll get some good updates to my blog and HOPEFULLY,you'll get to see my face for the 1st time in 6 months..
