Michael never had the chance to grow up and had his childhood.
There it went wrong. He was pushed and pushed and even beaten up like crazy.
This tormented heart and soul, starting by the beating up by his own father at early youth and through the lonesome making fame of a world superstar, made him getting far away from a ´normal´world only surrounded by his troup of managers, songwriters, bodyguards etc etc.
His own father telling him he was buttugly all the time made him feel bad about himself, hard to look into a simple mirror... He said that himself.
No wonder he fled into his music, and no wonder he never felt understood!
And sure no wonder he got so into plastic surgery, he never could accept himself as he was.
So in a way he always remained a child in his thinking which explains his always somewhat naive comments on his being around other children or his strong belief in love and peace around the world.
Children see and say things simple and straightforward and dont understand and do with all the big fuss.
I believe he never did real wrong, he just really wanted and dreamt of a better world seeing all the troubles and misery around in society, the destruction of nature, etc which he shouted out in his music, in songs like Heal the World, Earth Song...
I believe he really wanted to care for people, much more than for his assets and money, as innocent and naive as the thinking of a child.
But he could not buy any love nor understanding, not as he needed it.
This against his incredible talents for singing and dancing which as he was physically was growing up could expand and perfectionize.
The MOONWALK he absolutely perfectionized, made it one of his main trademarks.
Myself I am disgusted by people who think he was an abuser of children, and more so by the people who were and still are getting rich of his misery.
I am not at all a big MJ fan, never went to a single concert. Just have a couple of CDs, thats it.
But I surely have the biggest respect for him.
And we ALL make some mistakes along the lines, dont we.
Espec if one is a long time depressed, lonely, misunderstood, and looked upon like some sort of god or wacko or whatever, you loose feel with the real world.
He gave and still is giving people shivers with the incredible perfomances, songs and productions he gave in his short lifespan.
May he rest in peace forever
Amen
