Actually I've never really liked MJ, although I admit he's the king of pop. I clearly remember seeing Michael's MV at Lizi's house when he was in elementary school. Later, I fell in love with Heal the world, and the sound and melody were perfect. But I don't know why I haven't liked him very much. Maybe because I always judge people by their appearance, maybe because of the bad news about him.
Later, after finishing the last subject at the end of last semester, I turned on my mobile phone and saw the news of MJ's death. For a moment I thought it wasn't true, even if it was written in a cell phone newspaper. I can imagine that in many parts of the world, there may be some people crying, some people can't believe the facts, some people ask the boss for leave, some people pray silently for him... But I still can't feel the pain. If I'm sad it's only because the pop world has lost its true king. Maybe never again.
Later, the parties to the child molestation case came out and said that those were not true. Later, the forensic doctor who saw MJ said that MJ did not peel at all, just because of vitiligo, so he put a lot of cosmetics on his body to cover up the white spots. I can't tell if I'm more angry or sad. In fact, it is more likely to be regret and ashamed, because I, like many hypocritical people, once believed these lies, instead of always believing and supporting him like his fans. MJ who sings Heal the world, MJ who sings Earth song, MJ who sings We are the world, MJ who sings The lost children, was originally a pure and kind person. And MJ, who sings You're not alone, is the loneliest person in the world.
This is perhaps the most gorgeous documentary ever. Record a dazzling person, a gorgeous rehearsal, to present an ultimate concert. It's a pity that no one actually saw this incomparable work as an audience. What a pity this is. Since I started listening to music to now, I have seen a lot of live concerts, whether it is video or live. But there really isn't one that can compare to MJ's. If this show is really completed, Staples Center will be remembered not only as the home of the Lakers, but as a unique live memory.
Is it a miracle that a 50-year-old can still sing, dance, and stand alone on stage like this? I didn't expect it before, because Haruki Murakami wrote in the book that the peak of his long-distance running also appeared at the age of forty-six or seven years. But Murakami is not an ordinary person after all. They are people of faith and strong will.
MJ is the king of pop, the king who will never appear again. I know he is not just an idol for many people, but someone who has truly inspired, inspired, and even changed their lives. Even for me, he and his music carry memories, the most beautiful things. So I should understand how a world collapsed when MJ left, a confusion of beliefs disappearing. Instead of ever believing those lies, instead of indifferent indifference.
I'm so sorry, Michael. Hope you find the real Neverland in heaven.
