i thought it was pretty sweet to play an M.J song on Class 95 right before i left for work this morning upon the news of his death [at 5.26am (SG time)]. Class 95 played "Man in the Mirror"; how long ago since i heard that song! as nice as ever.
now that i'm at work, we listen to malaysian radio stations i.e. MIX FM or HITZ FM, as you all know there's no more streaming for local stations! and for more than 2 hours now, they've been playing M.J hits consecutively....!
at first when i heard "Billie Jean" and "Black or White" and "Thriller", it was sensational!
and i began to reminisce back on younger days in the mid-90s when me & my cousins sang M.J hits all the time, and i was trying hard to keep up - esp with eful, yaya, hir & mas - they seemed to know every song every word!
then, the radio stations played M.J hits such as "You are not Alone" and "They don't care about Us" -- isn't that like so so so emotionally depressing...????? oh dear, could i be mourning for someone i've not really been a big fan of, but simply someone i've grown up listening to....
it's for sure there are so many fans out there mourning and mourning... (i'm depressed myself)
even my cousin syai is playing M.J hits by himself at home... and here i am listening to this station never-endlessly playing M.J hits.....
ouh and yes , did i tell you, it was just 4 days ago, me and my cousins were playing Guitar Heroes as a band, and i sang "Beat It" :)
You may have left us, Michael, but your songs will forever remain etched in our hearts... R.I.P. Mikaeel....
