MICHAEL JACKSON

[kampanaryo_spy]

i am not exactly a fan but i admit MJ was a pop genius!

another great talent gone to waste! RIP MJ!

[iCeprIncEsS]

im not a fan either, but i think he was handsome hands down when he was black

goodbye mj

[cordapya]

I admire his great talent..believe gayod ako kaniya. His compositions both lyrics, music & footworks.. K-Spy usik balitaw young to die.

ICEPRINCESS I agree with you. Mas guapo siya nan black siya. After the "Thriller" hamok na iya inpa-ngotro sa iya kaugalingon, apil na an iya skin color.

[gingot]

it just show we are really going old when 80's music icon are dying (francis m. 3 months ago). i am most grateful that miko appreciate MJs music. he even requested me to create special playlist of MJs songs to his ipod which i gladly did. "heal the world" was their recognition song way back his third grade.
gone too soon...

He had me from "Ben". I used to carry Ben's tune and his "Got to be There" in my head kon mag gutos ako from Tago going home. His are among the first songs I loaded on my iPod.

Hubby knew I am a fan so when he heard the breaking news he called. He said, there's no confirmation yet, but MJ is thought to be dead. MJ? you mean Magic Johnson? Michael Jordan? Can't be Michael Jackson!

I didn't believed him. Must be an elaborate hoax I argued.

Michael Jackson clearly was a complex, genius and behind the glare of stardom was also clearly a warm and gentle personality.

Like millions of fans around the world, I too mourn his passing and greatly appreciate his great music and extraordinary talent.

Sophia Loren, via AP, summed it best: "The world has lost an icon and music has lost a treasure. He wrote songs that generations of yesterday, today and tomorrow will all keep on singing. What he wrote are amazing."

(Thank you MJ for giving us so much. You're phenomenal. Doesn't matter if you're "Black or White" I admire you just the same. Oh...we know how much you thrive on perfection, at zero gravity should be easy to teach the angels how to moonwalk )

kerek kaw gayud, abb.

as way of tribute, Michael Jackson will be the front act during the Search for Mutya ng Tago in August. you'd be shocked, but the idea came from JP!!!

I'M AN MJ FAN. I GREW UP WITH HIS SONGS AND I COPIED HIM IN A LOT OF WAYS DURING HIS HEIGHT.I DRESSED UP AND MOVED LIKE HIM....I HANGED OUT AT BOOM DISCO( THEN LATER RENAMED BAI ) AND INNER CIRCLE ( BOTH IN CEBU )EVERY SINGLE SATURDAY WITH FRIENDS AND ENJOYED DANCING WITH HIS MUSIC.WHEN I HEARD THE TRAGIC NEWS ,HE LIVED JUST A COUPLE OF MILES FROM MY OFFICE. IT DIDNT REALLY STRUCK ME AT ALL.BUT SOMETHING HAPPENED OVER THE WEEKEND ON THE GALA NIGHT OF OUR REUNION. I GOT EMOTIONAL FOR SOME REASON WHEN I HEARD HIS MUSIC PLAYED ON THE PARTY AND GOT ME DANCING ALL HIS SONGS . I HAVENT DANCED FOR THE LONGEST TIME NOT EVEN IN THE 2007 REUNION.HONESTLY,THOSE WERE THE ONLY DANCE MOVES I'VE KNOWN. MY DANCE FAVORITES ARE BEAT IT, THRILLER ,BILLIE JEAN AND WANNA BE STARTED SOMETHING...I MEMORIZED ALL THOSE MOVES AT ONE TIME. ALL I HAVE NOW IS THE MEMORY OF THE GUY THAT INFLUENCED MY TEENAGE LIFE.I KNOW HE IS NOT PERFECT JUST AS WE ARE BUT I'M GLAD THAT I WAS A PART OF THE GENERATION THAT CHERISHED HIS MUSIC INFLUENCE AND CHARITY ENDEAVORS..THOUGH HE IS GONE BUT STILL ,HE'S NOT OUT OF MY LIFE....( I LOVE HIS SONG... "SHE'S OUT OF MY LIFE" )

sugz,

JP is planning to mount a drive-in digital concert of MJ on his birthday at the plaza. this is to educate the young ones with MJ's kind of pop. and most importantly, to let them know that MJ doesn't mean Michael Jordan.

K-Spy,

And "M" on MTV stands for "MICHAEL". Yap, he puts that M there.

Sug,

Paga DVR kon memorial service pero min kaon naay akon panihapon ugsa ko tan-awa. Sus atobang kosan CNN mentras ga kaon, aduy si Paris, "ever since I was born, Daddy has been the best father you can imagine and I just want to say I love him so much". Stevie Wonder, "this is the moment that I wished I didn't live to see come _________ I know that God is good ___________ we need Michael here with us but God must have needed him far more".

Sug, wa kopa kit-in memorial pero sungaki na akon tiniyaho-ay. Katuyangan kay wara sa sila waray mag sungog kanako sagol na isab seguro ini kay paga mingaw sa ako kanila.

Bagan ga dejavu ako nan in tero si John Lennon kay wara sa isab ako yadto mahilona nan pagka hitabo kay during his "comeback" sa isab yadto.

Losing MJ, can’t help but draw a parallel of losing Princess Diana. A white card on top of her casket with “Mummy” written on it. His daughter proclaiming to the word, “the best father...I love him so much”. These are what humanize these icons. They've done so much to better the world (awareness to hunger, AIDS and landmines), and like a rainbow, they're gone too soon. Life is indeed short, precious and fragile.

WILL YOU BE THERE
Michael Jackson

Hold Me
Like The River Jordan
And I Will Then Say To Thee
You Are My Friend

Carry Me
Like You Are My Brother
Love Me Like A Mother
Will You Be There?

Weary
Tell Me Will You Hold Me
When Wrong, Will You Scold Me
When Lost Will You Find Me?

But They Told Me
A Man Should Be Faithful
And Walk When Not Able
And Fight till the End
But I'm Only Human

Everyone's Taking Control of Me
Seems That the World's
Got a Role for Me
I'm So Confused
Will You Show To Me
You'll Be There for Me
And Care Enough to Bear Me

(Hold Me)
(Lay Your Head Lowly)
(Softly Then Boldly)
(Carry Me There)

(Lead Me)
(Love Me and Feed Me)
(Kiss Me and Free Me)
(I Will Feel Blessed)

(Carry)
(Carry Me Boldly)
(Lift Me Up Slowly)
(Carry Me There)

(Save Me)
(Heal Me and Bathe Me)
(Softly You Say To Me)
(I Will Be There)

(Lift Me)
(Lift Me Up Slowly)
(Carry Me Boldly)
(Show Me You Care)

(Hold Me)
(Lay Your Head Lowly)
(Softly Then Boldly)
(Carry Me There)

(Need Me)
(Love Me and Feed Me)
(Kiss Me and Free Me)
(I Will Feel Blessed)

[Spoken]
In Our Darkest Hour
In My Deepest Despair
Will You Still Care?
Will You Be There?
In My Trials
And My Tribulations
Through Our Doubts
And Frustrations
In My Violence
In My Turbulence
Through My Fear
And My Confessions
In My Anguish and My Pain
Through My Joy and My Sorrow
In The Promise of another Tomorrow
I'll Never Let You Part
For you’re Always in My Heart.

MJ, WILL MISS YOUR POETRY
