A Day To Remember
My typical day of answering Myspace comments and reading
Twitter was going along as any other day, but June
25, 2009 was certainly not any other day. Two American icons passed on
to the lord this day leaving
many in shock, disbelief and feeling sorrow Michael Jackson and Farrah
Fawcett will always be remembered
for their contributions not only to entertainment, but to society as a
whole. Farrah Fawcett was 62 and courageously
battled cancer for some time now. She will be remembered by all
generations as a true American icon and will be missed dearly by many.
Michael Jackson, was just 50 on his day of passing and had an upcoming
50-concert tour starting in the UK which was scheduled to begin next
month. " The King of Pop" , without a doubt. Many had a hard time
living up to this man's accomplishments, in fact nobody ever really
has. That nickname could not have been
ever more fitting, in the day of self proclaimed "kings" in
entertainment, nobody will ever top "
The King Of Pop".
This is a person that touched lives withinn every single generation on
earth today. I was born in 1980, so I consider myself a true 80's baby
and a true fan of this man like just about everyone from my generation.
If you want to talk about mixed genres, or if you want to talk about
being able to do it all, this is the man you would be talking about. An
entertainer in the truest form. Those videos of girls crying in concert
and people fainting, were oh-so real and although I was never lucky
enough to see this man play in concert, I definitely know nobody will
ever be at the same caliber, in terms of entertainers. I could not
possibly write anything that is not out there already, so being a real
music fan I will
honor "
The King Of Pop"
Michael Jackson with what I feel that he would have wanted to been
honored with, music, instead of words. Will.I.AM from the Black Eyed
Peas said it best earlier today,
"He was a gift
to the world, he is a bright light and I wouldn't be surprised if the
world stopped spinning tomorrow." Rest in Peace Farrah and Michael.
