Thanks for the Thrills

Thriller

I cannot express how much I loved Michael Jackson’s Thriller. I loved every song and played the heck out of the album. I had posters of Michael Jackson in my junior high locker, and Billie Jean is my favorite pop song ever.  I remember the night the video to Thriller premiered on television so well that I can almost smell and taste the popcorn. 

R.I.P., Michael.  You will be missed, but thanks for leaving us with the thrills.

    Yesterday was quite a day for the death of icons. =/ Lovely tribute, I do hope we can remember him for what he did for the music industry and his talent.

    It’s such a shock!

    He and his music was such a large part of my childhood. I still remember having a poster of him (in the yellow vest) on my wall. Oh and Thriller playing on MTV being such a HUGE deal.

    I wish his family and children well.

    When my uncle took his own life, my mother was so upset until she talked to our parish priest. What he said to her was that God does not judge by our last act or one act alone. He knows our heart and looks back on our whole like. So, this is how I remember him and always will. Those who missed the Thriller years will probably never understand why he was what he was. Here’s hoping that Michael is moonwalking on the clouds in heaven.
