His Memory Remains: Michael Jackson


Yesterday was Michael Jackson’s public memorial and it proved difficult for many people to hold back their sadness of Michael being taken long before his time, the whole memorial was great and brought together a variety of people who Michael had connected with on some level throughout his life, the most poignant tributes of the night came from not only Michael’s family. Michael’s daughter, Paris, who put on a brave face with her siblings in her attempt to pay tribute to her father, broke down in tears. I’m sure everyone who was watching at that point cried even more. Michael was very proud of his children and now we can see why, they are absolutely adorable.

A whole host of performances were delivered on the day from the likes of John Mayer, Usher (who broke down in tears), Jennifer Hudson, Stevie Wonder, amongst many other wonderful names.

The whole event from yesterday was very emotional, so I shall let a few video’s of the event do the talking and highlight what a wonderful talent Michael Jackson truly was, his memory will forever live on. R.I.P, Michael. Gone, but definitely never forgotten. We will always remember you and your contributions to music.
