RIP Michael Jackson
I'm still stunned. Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, died yesterday. He was 50. For all the mystery that has shrouded his life in recent years, for all the antics, he is still the greatest entertainer of our time. His songs are so amazing. It's weird. I had just gotten back into Jackson music. I was planning on purchasing a ticket for his upcoming tour. His death is so shocking. 50. About to embark on a worldwide tour. And, I'm having a hard time writing this post. I've written posts like these before. I've written about death before. I've seen death before. But for this post, tears are rolling down my face. For this post, I'm struggling for words. For this post, I'm suddenly realizing the loss of a pop legend. Maybe it didn't hit me yesterday. Maybe I was too stunned. Maybe I didn't want to believe it. I don't know. But I know now that my emotions are getting the better of me. I don't know if this post is doing him justice. I don't think any post can. Michael Jackson, for all his downfalls, is a beloved figure. Rest in Peace, Michael. May the world remember for your terrific music. May the world remember you for how you changed music. May the world remember you forever.
