The day after

Michael Jackson died yesterday, I was at school when i heard this, when people said, michael jackson is dead, i thot it cant be, must be a joke, or like those "punk is dead" or "hip hop is dead" statements, well, if they are dead, how come people still making punk or hip hop music? OK2, back to MJ, he was my hero (just like the millions who admired his dance moves and memorized his songs) I remembered my first MJ song, which was Earth Song, and that was like my first contact with music, it isnt like i never heard of music before, its just that other songs at that time were only songs, this was something truly different, i remembered i used to turn up the speakers when i heard the song, and still is...

And yesterday altho i was deeply saddened about his death, but there was something that made me happy at the same time, every single Malaysian english stations played his songs, good music, screw Jonas Brothers, that chick who sang sugar with Flo Rida, shit, Flo Rida and Jonas Brothers cant even be mentioned in the same sentence as MJ, but still , and i was like, damn, do they really need the guy to be dead before u can actually appreciate his work, songs like Bad, Thriller, Billy Jean, Earth Song, The Way You Make Me Feel and many many others, to songs from his Jackson 5 days like ABC, I'll Be There and many others, with a tour and a album coming out, i thought it was too early for him to go, maybe he should die sometime after those things are done, but hey, im a mere mortal, what can i do, people die, and Michael, as great as he was, also die.

R.I.P Michael Jackson or his muslim name, Mikaeel Jackson

This is my first MJ song
