and by then, it is too late."
Everyone seems to be blogging or talking or FB-ing about Michael Jackson's death. Most of the celebrity bloggers such as Perez Hilton, Pink is the new blog, Timothy Tiah, Pink Pau, Kennysia, Jojo Struys and even Nuffnang regular bloggers such as Pamsong, Nicholas, Evon, Emeryn, Mike Yip to name a few have even written about him or at least his works and something related to him. Even radio stations were playing his songs ALL day long.
No offense to all you hardcore MJ fans but I just don't feel affected by his demise, not even by a bit. True, he was the King of Pop and had lots of good songs. He even had a lot of troubles and worries and stress like us ordinary people. Well, except the pedophile part.
But still, so what? Seriously. Even so that I love Backstreet Boys, 98degrees or even Josh Groban, I wouldn't mourn over their deaths. Once again, seriously?
It's really sad how someone can make such drastic changes that probably left a scarring permanent damage on oneself and to live with it??

Why is it that we tend to only appreciate or acknowledge a person when they die?
Look at the older days famous composers such as Mozart and Beethoven. They all died as poor men. Famous Bach's music was unpopular for 100 years!! But now, their music is renown throughout the world, played in many versions and renditions and even incorporated into movies etc!

Despite my lack of emotional state regarding MJ's death, I sincerely hope that he does finally rest in peace. But I can't help but wonder where did he ended up.
Up with the heavenly angels and eternal happiness?
OR
Down to the hot, burning abyss forever??

I just got off the phone with my bf who is ALL the way in the land of sleepy koalas and punching kangaroos!!
I was saying, "Seriously, what is the big deal with MJ's death??!!" and yada yada yada... Thinking that he would agree with me.
-_- Mana tau, tak support me.
My bf, the traitor treacherously said, "I have always wanted to see him make his comeback and so, was happy with the news that his concert was sold out! But probably the strain of the concert caused him to suffer a heart attack."
"Then again, maybe he's not dead. You know MJ lah... weird fella. Or who knows? it's just a gimmick?", he quipped.
Bah. Another MJ fan! =p Just don't play his songs at my wedding or start moonwalking during the ceremony, mister!!
