Marsha is doing a sold out show at the Jazz Cafe, here in London tonight. She is going to do her own MJ tribute, and naturally, she will include Butterflies. I can’t wait!

I loved Michael, so did my grandfather. I

remember as a little girl me and my grandfather

listening to him and dancing. My family and I are

Michael fans and forever will be. We are all sad

to see Michael gone but we know he is in a

better place and is no longer suffering from

those who couldn’t see he’s talent and

contribution not only to African Americans but

to all those involved in music. Also Janet

should be praised for her bravery on the BET

Awards. She did a beautiful job in holding it

together.

RIP Michael

I am having a terrible time with his passing.
I am almost 50. Loved his music, but did not follow him closely as a fan… and now I am waking up to all that he truly was – what he really stood for… what his message really was… Love, Compassion, Giving… caring…
and I can’t keep my cheeks dry.

what the world has lost –
a jewel that we stepped on,
poked our fingers at,
judged in such a petty and superficial way…

what have we done…
what have we lost..
can we ever really know ?

The more I learn of him
the heavier my burden

I am shocked at how deeply I
am mourning.
How was I so blind, how was the world so blind to the gentle goodness of this man?

I want to see Chris Brown, I have heard about his performance (MJ) and I want to see it. I will never get tired of tributes to MJ he deserve them. And I must agree it is hard to hear and read the negative comments about MJ, but regardless of the negativity he will forever live on in the hearts of those who love him!

I would really love to see a tribute to his afros. His fros were always on point and I would enjoy getting advice on just how they may have maintained them.

I love Butterflies, too. That and Break of Dawn were my favorites from what, I still can’t believe, is his last cd.
I think BET did their best, they only had less than three days to put a tribute to him. As the time passes, I know there will be better tributes to come.

It’s still so sad that he’s gone. I hope he finds peace in the hereafter.
