[LUTO] Michael Jackson (★ 29/08/1958 - † 25/06/2009)

Não sei porque. Nunca fui um grande fã de Michael Jackson, mas fiquei sentido com sua morte, assim como o mundo todo ficou. Até agora é estranho, não estou acreditando que ele se foi. Lembro até agora da hora que eu descobri: Estava no trailer no intervalo das aulas quando conversando minha amiga olhou pra televisão e disse que era a ambulância que estava levando o corpo dele. Corri na hora até a sala de internet pra conferir se era verdade. Conferi, vi, mas mesmo assim é inacreditável. Não sei porque, mas eu imaginava ele como alguém imortal ou que ao menos fosse demorar muito para nos abandonar como fez a Dercy.
Agora só resta lembrar do astro do pop, e assim como sempre soube do Elvis, meu filho vai saber do garoto negro que ficou branco e que mesmo depois de muitas polêmicas, continuou com sua legião de fãs.
DESCANSE EM PAZ!
Assim como Michael, queria tambeém saber falar de Farrah Fawcett que também nos abandonou hoje, mas a única coisa correta que saberia dizer a ela é que ela DESCANSE EM PAZ também. Não que não tenha sido ótima no que fazia, mas nunca ouvi dela.

Em homenagem, aqui está uma de minhas músicas favoritas que depois de tempos descobri ser dele. Mas não me surpreendi, afinal, ele foi, é, e sempre será o ASTRO DO POP.

Man In The Mirror (Michael Jackson)

I'm gonna make a change,
for once in my life
It's gonna feel real good,
gonna make a difference
Gonna make it right...

As I, turn up the collar on
my favorite winter coat
This wind is blowing my mind
I see the kids in the streets,
with not enough to eat
Who am I to be blind?
Pretending not to see their needs

A summer disregard, a broken bottle top
And a one man soul
They follow each other on the wind ya' know
'Cause they got nowhere to go
That's why I want you to know

I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change
(Na na na, na na na, na na, na nah)

I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love
It's time that I realize
That there are some with no home, not a nickel to loan
Could it be really me, pretending that they're not alone

A willow deeply scarred, somebody's broken heart
And a washed-out dream
(Washed-out dream)
They follow the pattern of the wind ya' see
'Cause they got no place to be
That's why I'm starting with me

I'm starting with the man in the mirror
(Ooh!)
I'm asking him to change his ways
(Ooh!)
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change


I'm starting with the man in the mirror
(Ooh!)
I'm asking him to change his ways
(Change his ways - ooh!)
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make that..
CHANGE!

I'm starting with the man in the mirror
(Man in the mirror - Oh yeah!)
I'm asking him to change his ways
(Better change!)
No message could have been any clearer
(If you wanna make the world a better place)
(Take a look at yourself and then make the change)

(You gotta get it right, while you got the time)
('Cause when you close your heart)
You can't close your... your mind!
(Then you close your... mind!)
That man, that man, that man, that man
With the man in the mirror
(Man in the mirror, oh yeah!)
That man, that man, that man,
I'm asking him to change his ways
(Better change!)
You know... that man
No message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make the change
Hoo! Hoo! Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!
Na na na, na na na, na na, na nah
(Ooooh...)
Oh no, no no...

I'm gonna make a change
It's gonna feel real good!
Come on!
(Change...)
Just lift yourself
You know
You've got to stop it,
Yourself!
(Yeah! - Make that change!)
I've got to make that change, today!
Hoo!
(Man in the mirror)
You got to
You got to not let yourself...
brother
Hoo!
(Yeah! - Make that change!)
You know - I've got to get
that man, that man...
(Man in the mirror)
You've got to
You've got to move! Come on!
Come on!
You got to...
Stand up! Stand up! Stand up!
(Yeah! - Make that change)
Stand up and lift yourself, now!
(Man in the mirror)
Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!
Aaow!
(Yeah! - Make that change!)
Gonna make that change...
come on!
You know it!
You know it!
You know it!
You know it...
(Change...)
Make that change.
