I think no one in this world can say that he does not know this name “The Michael Jackson”. Today I write this post just not to tell how Great Legend he was but to tell the Other Side of the Story which I think took MJ away from this world. And I thank God he was a free man now, Out of all the allegations, abuses, criticism, vulgarity against him and what not. It was just not the cocktail of some doses and injection that killed him but a sweet poison that he was drinking everyday and every night. What did he ask from the world, just a help to save this world, just a two hand noise and not single hand beating? He alone faced all that inside a big mansion where he had nobody to share that pain with him. The company that he enjoyed was also targeted. Yes!! The love for the kids was taken in a wrong way. He was trialed just not once but twice. He was brutally killed everyday as long as the trial was on. Police and the People gave him depression, heart strokes and a good amount of beating everyday.
Let me start with the opener, he was criticized or was made an object of suspicion when he wore masks as he tried to cover most parts of his body. I would like to remind that he was suffering from VITILIGO where your Blood Cells change their colour and a man turns White (even if he is white). The rarest of the rarest disease which hardly few know unlike me. This disease is not dangerous or to be scared of, it’s just the change of colour but on the way it gives humiliation, irritation, isolation and for most you feel bad about yourself turning ugly day by day. Just imagine how MJ would have felt as he was such a big artist whose earning and fame was from his FACE. People told what not, speculating about his face surgery, sleeping in the gas chamber so that he could turn white. No one can imagine if he could ask something from God he would have asked his own colour back. If the skin turns white, most of the layers under the skin become sensitive to the sun, dust etc. At some juncture of life you physically also start weakening as he did. Hats Off to that man who survived the major transition blow.
The people then criticized and blamed him of his relations with children. I think no one can prove that still. The first case against him was quashed due to lack of evidence and then in the next he paid huge money to that boy in the fear that he might be molested physically more by the local police as they had already made a mess out of him. I think everyone remembers his Neverland’s Video where he told about what happened to him at the hands of the local government bodies. If people really listen to his one song “They don’t really care about us” I can assure you that even a dumbest of the person can understand that he actually tried to tell his past by very simple means which he mastered. This all stupid things that happened in his life made him more and more dependent on drugs which rather helped him to sleep so that next day he can come right back on the stage to show his best innovative moves to same people who actually made him to weep last night. Has any POLITICIAN (who promises of every damn thing in this world to win election) made such a big park for kids anywhere in this world, which he made just for nothing? I don’t know why people always take love in wrong direction whether it is daughter-father or a husband-wife relation.
I think still he had fault in him, who the hell told him to win hundreds of awards at the most prestigious functions, to be the best seller most of the time, to break all the records and to set millions which no one can ever break? Why he became such a popular man within a decade that the world mourned at his death, call it Japanese, Chinese, Russian, German etc these all people never knew how to speak English but they all knew how to speak his name. How the world could forget what he gave? Where is “We the People” that he sang uniting the whole world with single string? I don’t even remember how many best choreographers in this world picked up his dance steps to become rich and famous.
Don’t really know what we all have missed in this “50 show concerts – This is It “. May be some new moonwalks, may be sun walk this time, some more splendid songs and a real fun of watching him dance all over again on the stage. I really hope that his Soul Rests In Peace and the God soon reincarnate him so that we could listen some real good, innovative, something new and interesting back again before we die.
