I was so surprised at how Michael Jackson’s death affected me. It just resonates such unfairness. I took my girls 7 and 5 to see This is It and they have been dancing to his songs ever since. I hope he can see how much joy his music brings even to little girls who were never part of the hype. He and his music stand alone. RIP

Thank you. I’m so totally late here but regardless I have to say your words truly touched me. Some don’t understand a man I grew up watching, a young child then he had that “special” something. Ben, I remember watching the movie to hear him sing the song. Michael had that one thing – that’s never before been done – will never be done again…
Truly his music lives on. Love him hate him he was known. Even those who have nothing nice to say… He touched you as well.
In this big bright wonderful world of ours We can make or BREAK a person. No matter what – hate/jealousy exists and can knock even the hardest/most talented/intelligent person. Michael spoke of Love and Giving. HIs message w/forever live on.

I love this post. I wrote one about him a year ago, and I didn’t write another on the anniversary because I’m still… thinking about him. I watched “This Is It” the other day for the first time, and I don’t think I blinked through the whole thing. It’s a weird kinda love I have for him… definitely gone too soon. It’s the strangest feeling, knowing he isn’t here anymore. I can’t explain it really. It’s nice to see that someone else feels remarkably similar.

I have never measured my love for a blog based on how many ‘chills’ it gives me but after reading this post you have shot straight in to ‘daily reading priority’ folder on my blogroll. It didn’t take long… between the bunny rabbit post and this beyond poignantly written Michael post, I was sold pretty quickly… AMAZING AMAZING.

The man in the mirror is gone too soon….

Thank you for writing this. I feel so much the same, my love and respect for Michael just seems to grow deeper over time. I miss him everyday. I feel a bit scared ´cause of the lost of such a good person, the world really needs people like him. He was one of a kind, in many ways.

I am so glad to see there are others who feel as unsettled as I was that day and even after. I so appreciate the tenderness in the words, the level of detail of what created him. I LOVE the photo.

I just saw this post and had to comment. I am currently 26 and remember Michael Jackson very well from my childhood. Not Michael of the 80′s, but Michael of the 90′s. I remember being in Middle School and seeing a magazine with him on the cover at my friends house. I said “ewww he’s so weird!” And my friend’s mom said. “No, no he’s not. He’s the most talented man in the world.” I was taken aback by how offended she got. Looking back, the only reason I said “ew he’s weird!” is because of how the media portrayed him. I didn’t know anything about him! And the music I did know, I loved even as a child.

I have a great MJ story. Friends of my parents lived in Maine when “On Golden Pond” was filmed there. Katherine Hepburn lived in one of their houses during filming. My mothers friend befriended Jane Fonda. Her daughter (of the friend) who was about 15 at the time was a great MJ fan and wrote him a letter and asked Jane Fonda to give it to him. A few weeks later he visited Jane and stayed for a whole weekend and spent time with the daughter of our friends.

I am at work right now and much like last year I had to hold back the tears. You have managed to put into words what many of us are not able to. He is gone but the legacy that he left will stay with us forever and it is up to us to carry it on. I have a beautiful example at home, my 7 year old and my 18 month old love him just as much as my brother and I did when we were little too. We have fedoras, videos, cds and it is fantastic to have a conversation with my 7 year old and hear him talk about how MJ was a great person and he loved everyone and wanted to make the world a better place.
Thank you very much!
