However, this is not gonna be one of those posts. The facts is, I even don’t wanna write about MJ’s passing at all to be honest, it feels way too mandatory and forced, but to run this music thing without acknowledging the fact that he’s dead, would be really stupid and ignorant. MJ did a whole lot for music.

To be born in the 80′s or late 70′s, we all have our special bond to MJ. MJ was the male equivalent to Madonna and together they ruled the kingdom of pop. The ‘Thriller’-video, think it was the first music video I ever saw in my entire life and I was so scared watching it, it was just as frightening as the Gremlins were back then. But did I listen to his music post “Bad”? No. Did he make any good music post “Bad”? No. Everything he did post 1987 is just a strange huge mess.

The strongest MJ memory I got (aside from failed attempts to pull off a perfect moon-walk in our living room in front of the telly and thinking to myself that the crotch move was slightly embarrassing) was when I was 9 and my entire school was forced to record that ghastly ‘We Are The World’-track. That recording is now the c-90 God forgot. It was in the winter, the entire school were down with a cold, 90% are off cue and the rest is constantly coughing, sneezing and blowing their running nose.

Kinda strange in a way that someone could move so many people and how one once a happy go lucky boy could turn into that… freakshow he became later on. It’s all kinda sad really.
