The TV is on... one of the rare times that it's on in my house :) And there's a Michael Jackson concert on. It's suppose to be a tribute to him. Unless you've missed the news, you'll know he passed away very recently. I was on the way to work when I got the news via sms. I checked out the news on a news portal via 3G and yes, he had passed away (along with Farah Fawcett, but that seems to be a less talked about news).
Anyway, back to the concert. It's amazing to see how devoted and crazy his fans are. They are screaming and just delirious. It's amazing. He's of course doing an amazing performance. It's just insane! (The way people are reacting in his concert). Such was his influence.
There's also sms dedications scrolling across the page on the TV. People just pouring out their thoughts and feeling for MJ. They're paying tribute to him. What an impact he had.
My wife has just stumbled upon a recording of the 911 called made to get him to the hospital. Fancy that.
Malaysia also has a drink called Michael Jackson, or MJ - soya bean milk with black/grass jelly. The ultimate honor in Malaysia!
I can still remember many of his hits. He was an entertainer. He was a star. Yes, he had his problems. Many have written about it. I don't profess to know them in detail. I never knew the man well. But was he a star, yes. No doubt.
I guess many will miss him...
