the world stopped and united in mourning...

it's all in the news...it's all in twitterland...

being an 80's child [born in the 80's that is...], these two people are common names in the household...and now that they both passed away on the same day, the world is one in grieving for their plight to death...


she was one third of the tv series that was revived in big screen years ago...she was one of those three who responds to a voicebox and says "good morning Charlie"...there was Kate Jackson, Jaclyn Smith and...Farrah Fawcett [the girl in the middle with a red top]...their show Charlie's Angels ended in 1981 but thanks to the local Phil. tv stations, it was re-aired during my high school/college days...thanks to my parents i was influenced with the 60-70-80's genre so i'm really familiar of this show...
but today, it was all in the morning's news here in Manila that Farrah Fawcett died from cancer...

and just hours later, one of the biggest influences in the music industry is already in his journey to our Lord...most singers at present consider him to be one of their idols and influences in their craft in music...

his music and physical transformations [let's not forget that] were part of my lifetime...i was growing up with his music too...he had tons of hits and there was no decade during his lifetime that his songs were not loved and touched many...

P.Y.T, Beat It, Billie Jean, Man in the Mirror, Black and White -- these are the songs i've liked through the years...there's so much more for the millions who admired and lived thru his music...he also inspired a lot of artists today to perform with so much energy during concerts and inspired them to help in the needing parts of society...

a lot of sadness actually on twitter right now for this awesome man...even this guy over here...

Ah, I can't get over MJ. I know everyone's talking about it but he deserves the respect. I hope people will appreciate what he's done.

a very familiar icon...Michael Jackson...who died of cardiac arrest in LA...


and today, the world for some strange reason stopped...the world suddenly unites in mourning...and for sure it'll be for the longest time...but his music will always be instilled, passed on and relived...

the awful truth is this...we keep saying good things to those who already pass away when we could have done or returned the good deeds they had contributed to our lives...no matter if they might have offended us even, we should rather look at the good points of a person rather than curse them for the longest time for what might have been a single mistake against us...

another awful truth, no offense to some musicians/singers, some keep saying MJ has been their influence in music but in reality i can't even see a thing or two in their music...where was MJ in your music???...i hope now that he is dead, his name wouldn't be pulled to get their fame whereas MJ was never a part of their music...just plain honesty over here^_^

the world mourns for the loss of the King of Pop and a Charlie's Angel...but their memories and contributions to the industry will always be there...May they both rest in peace and for sure, they are in a much better place now...God bless their souls..

for us living, they have been and will always be a part of us...and after this, it's all back to business...good business i hope^_^
