THIS was the biggest moment ever on this planet...ever...Move over Akshay Kumar, take a walk Shahrukh, because this man called Michael Jackson was, is and will always remain the biggest ever star of this planet. The tears refuse to dry and yet we can't help but smile, however much we try. Never, I repeat, never will there be another person on this earth who will ever reach such heights as those reached by the King of Pop, Michael Jackson.
The enigma called Michael Jackson has been finally put away to rest forever. The vocal chords, the moon-walking legs, the heart from where the music came from, everything has gone forever.
The biggest performers and legends paid tribute to the Legend of Pop, the biggest of them could not hide their emotional sense of loss, the greatest of them let go and cried in front of billions watching. This is the kind of frenzy that Michael's death has brought about across all borders of the earth and probably beyond, somewhere too.
Who cries for someone you don't even know? I don't. Yeah, I'm a big fan and I love his music and I AM emotional but I won't cry and all, come on!
But then one could not really control emotions during the live memorial event of MJ's when people shouted, 'come back Michael', when Brooke Shields could not hold back her tears even though she was trying to narrate some funny anecdotes from her childhood with Michael, when MJ's brother broke down as he was closing the ceremony. One could not control the tears from flowing when Janet Jackson brought MJ's 12 year old daughter and asked her to speak a few words. She couldn't say much.
"Ever since I was born, Daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine... I just wanted to say I love him so much."
She cried. So did all those billions watching her and...finally one HAD to break down when a million people went silent at the end of the memorial, when the frenetic crowd waiting outside to celebrate MJ's legacy, stood still... when the music stopped and only sniffles were heard, when time almost stood still as everyone tried to grasp the fact that the greatest musician would never sing or dance again.
No words can define the emotions that one feels at this time. Just...
...Goodbye Michael! 'til next time...
