M.J. HAS FINALLY PUT TO REST

At MJ Memorial




“There are certain people

in our popular culture that just capture people’s imaginations,
and in death, they become even larger.”
President Obama told CBS News from Moscow.


The King of Pop has finally put to rest after an emotional memorial service which was attended by 20,000 people and watched by millions around the world.


Jermaine singing MJ's favourite song, Smile


At the memorial service, family and friends paid their last respect to the greatest pop icon in modern history. Mariah Carey sang I'll be there, my favourite song, joined by Trey Lorenz. Jermaine Jackson sang MJ's Favourite song, Smile, written by Charlie Chaplain for Modern
Time.


Queen Latifah said,"He gave us all he had."


Queen latifah gave a speech tribute and a great poem written by Maya Angelou. She repeatedly said,"We had him". But at the end she spoke of undeniable truth of MJ,"He gave us all he had."


Paris Jackson heart wrenching tribute

I was touched by the speech made by Paris Jackson, MJ's own daughter. "Ever since I was born, daddy has been the best father you would ever imagine."Paris said sobbing. " And I just want to say I love him so much."

Though his burial ground remains a mystery, let the King of Pop rest in peace while his legacy will live forever.

Michael rose to fame from his childhood with the legendary Jackson 5 to a superstar that earned him the nickname 'King of Pop'. I still vividly remember his song "I'll be there" which was the top of the charts in 1970. I used to sang it every day for sometime. His "ABC" and "I want you Back" songs were also very popular.
