I watched the Grammys on Sunday night, not all of it mind you, I don't have the 3 1/2 hours to devote to it like I used to and I haven't watched it in at least 6 years. Being a Bon Jovi fan, I was surprised when the announcers said it was their first performance on the Grammys. Great songs and the guys looked good.
I shed a few more tears when the tribute to Michael Jackson played. It's still hard to believe he is gone. He was, still is and always will be the King of Pop.
Anybody who grew up in the 80's knew the Thriller album, the hit songs, the one white glove and that freaky video. To this day, it is still the coolest video. Oh my gosh, who didn't attempt the moonwalk??
His 'Man in the Mirror' song always stirs my soul, reminding me I can make a difference in the world. It's all a matter of choice.
Sure there are plenty of people who are quick to bring up all the alleged bad things he took part in the last decade or so of his life. Who knows if he did or he didn't, only he and God know for sure. And that's between them now.
The rest of us are left with his music and remembering the huge impact he had on our culture. And with that I will always cherish the memories of my childhood hearing his music in the background.
He was and always will remain the King of Pop.
Here's to you, Michael.....
