I went to sleep knowing the death of my favourite pin up Farrah Fawcett and woke up this morning with the news that Michael Jackson died. He was 50 years old. His death was officially announced by his brother Jermaine Jackson.
To tell you the truth... he is not my favourite singer... but he is a music genius and absolutely a legend. I grew up listening to Billie Jean, Thriller, Beat It, Smooth Criminal, Bad, Black or White... fuh... they were all not just excellent music... the music videos were equally legendary. It really shows how creative he is.
He is still holds the record of having Thriller the best ever selling record of all time... about 50 million album sales worldwide. A record that will not be broken... yes... it will not be broken just because in this day and age... people download their music ;)
He is a true legend with the title "Most Successful Entertainer of All Time"—13 Grammy Awards, 13 number one singles in his solo career — more than any other male artist in the Hot 100 era and the sale of 750 million records worldwide. His last concert tour was way back 15 years ago but his supposed to be 50 last comeback tour "This is It" sold out in 4 hours. Shows that his music still have a place in this day and age. Tribute from people all over the world came pouring in once his death was announced...
Like Elvis... the King of Pop lives on... moon walking in the sky... Here is my favourite MJ song...
