Michael 'the undefinable' Jackson...

He was black. He is an American. He suffered from a rare disease called vitiligo which results in a skin that looks bleached. He is the man of all men. He is an icon. He is a trend-setter. He is a singer. He is a dancer. He is the entertainer of all entertainers. He is the master of the stage. He is the King of Pop. He is a teacher. He is a humanitarian. He is a god. He is a good father. He is a good son. He broke barriers. He is a good 'photographer' as he changed the landscape of M-U-S-I-C. He is a constructor whom constructed a 'bridge' between humans. He is a symbol of unity as his musics unites everyone on Earth. He indirectly represents the alphabet M. He was a living legend. He is every good thing that can happen to anyone. He who will stay in all of our hearts forever. He who is highly honoured. He who we shall salute upon. He who one shall never forget even if he/she gets Alzheimer. He who bagged 197 music awards. He who is none other than the one and only-Micheal Jackson...

He started performing since he was five... He joined his brother to form the 'Jackson Five' which I had never heard any song from them until the day he has departed from Earth... The very first song that I heard from him was 'Earth Song'... I was sitting right in front of the TV and suddenly saw this MV with all the animals and heard his vocals and I was like 'wow...!!!' because that time I still don't know much about music yet... Since then, I started to notice him with 'Thriller', 'Bad', 'We Are The World', 'Beat It', 'Billie Jean' and the list can go on and on...

His story was way before Oprah Winfrey, Tiger Woods, Barrack Obama and other African-Americans... He opened the doors and paved the roads for black people to blend in the American society... He changed music into an art which is easily accepted... Before him, not much people would listen to music because some of it are meaningless and drab... He was the one who gave music its soul... His sleek and agile moves were the toppings of his music... His life was a mystery and now his death is also a mystery... His friend said during an interview that no one knows MJ other than MJ himself...

His contribution to the world is ginormous... He fulfilled his purpose that god sent him to Earth... In fact, he has done far more than humanly possible... His songs united everyone from every corner, his name can be heard whenever there is presence of human... He helped lots of children and it might be too over for some people and hence the rumours surfaced... But who would bother bout them right now?! He will always be remembered as an almost perfect man...

Long live the king... May he seek serenity and tranquility in another dimension... Bye Michael...
