Michael, May you rest in peace

"Before you judge me, try hard to love me, look within your heart, then ask, have you seen my childhood?"
--------Michael Jackson
To the60s‘， 70s’, 80s’, or 90s’ generations, when we were ever childhood, our joys and excitements had been deeply marked with a legend name: Michael Jackson. His breathtaking moonwalk dance, high-pitched singing voice, childlike smile, innocent spirit……all that have grown up together with us, we couldn’t help imitating his dance and singing in that past but warm youth.
　　As time went by, we grew up as an adult, we have to struggle to work and live with endless pressure, and we found less energy and interest on Michael Jackson. What we knew is that he now had fallen down from the throne and struggled to live amid malicious gossips and slanders, even we have lost the passion to probe whether these rumors are true or not. And then the time elapsed through the fingers silently……
　　As usual, I went to the office early on June, 26 morning, and opened the computer to browse the headlines of today’s news. But what I saw is the explosive news that Michael Jackson died from cardiac arrest! It greatly shocked me, on short notice, the past memory of Michael emerged to the mind immediately, the face was beaded with tears, for Michael, for myself, for the past youth……
　　Michael Jackson, who was born in 1958, was endowed with the love of music and dance. When he was 5 years old, he had appeared in his four brothers’ music group as a gifted child star. Because of his talents in dancing and singing, he soon became a standout in the group. And then defined himself as a sole artist in 1976 with the release of “Off the wall”, he then became an international phenomenon when the album “Thriller” sold 16 million copies worldwide in 1983, which is still the best selling album of all time. Within “Thriller”, there were 8 Top songs on the USA musical billboard. He had created his unique “moonwalk” dance featuring seems to be without the gravities upon him. He was perhaps the most exciting performer in the world, known for his feverish, crotch-grabbing dance moves and his high-pitched voice punctuated with squeals and titters. His single sequined glove, tight, military-style jacket and aviator sunglasses were all his trademarks. He is the “King of Pop”.
　　But why Michael has been so impressive in the world is not just because his unequaled talents in performance, but also for his disputable and tragic life. When Michael reached his career peak, his physical appearance began to change drastically: His complexion, once brown, morphed into a pasty white. His once-flat nose was reshaped, his cheekbones were more difined and his hair--once curled,was completely straightened. And in the later of his career, Michael was troubled in a ceasless of chargesof child molestation. Even finally, he was proved to be acquttal, his career had been almost to an end.
　　But who knows Michael’s physical change should be blamed to his sufferings of vitiligo and pigment disorder?
　　Who knows that Michael as a super star, he never had a childhood, he loves child, he built his ranch not only as a refuge for himself but for children--especially those who are ill or less fortunate--to enjoy?
　　The disputes between Michael’s fans and detractors should be to an end now, he has been in another world, he has been overcome by slanders, blackness and pains……
No matter you want to deny or admit, Michael is the greatest Pop Icon all time, his legacy in the music industry is unquestionable.
Michael, May you rest in peace……
