well... of course I am curious about what it was. lol... That's me, can't miss a thing.I've decided to remove what I had posted because it may be a bit too much for some, plus it changes the spirit of the thread.

Oh. Hahahahahehehehewell... of course I am curious about what it was. lol... That's me, can't miss a thing.
That's exxxxxxactly what I'm saying. Yep!!~ I felt what your were expressing about without trafic, people ,airplanes and all the other noisey distraction's you can hear the sound of earth ...It's a peaceful and content sound ...
when I saw your post I thought yes ,I pay attention to that too ! ,I get It !!
But If ''blush'' I'm way off base AllforMJ please tell me ,I promise I can take It...
And please forgive me for going off topic ...
I think "Speechless" could be about a desired love that could make him feel as on "hollowed ground", or when he says "Though nothing's real, but all is possible, if God is on my side"..I think the song does mean more than him being touched by the wonder of watching two innocent children playing; it may have to do with then, but while he was watching them, that was real..Except for he was also praying something else could come true, something that could leave him speechless, just like watching 2 kids playing, thus equating it with innocence, too, with divinity...But the song is not about death, but about the most magical form of life possible, how can it be? it is about a love taking him to Heaven, but not by means of him feeling as though he loses his life..
There was a mention in the thread about Michael being close to tears when those from the Killer Thriller party in 2002 apparently put the song "Speechless" in the background, while he made the anti Sony speech, but I couldn't hear the song, nor see his reaction to it...But it plays an important part for him, as he listed it in more than one interview as one of his favorites, among "You Are My Life" (about his children), and "Unbreakable" (about his resilience)...3 songs that cover all areas: his own person, his family, and a desired loved..
But again, I disagree with something...When he sings "Helpless and hopeless, that's how I feel inside", he utters the words and sings them so sweetly and graciously, being somehow thankful to be in that abandonment..Whatever he sees in his imagination or in his dreams is shown to him by God, thus he feels lifted from the troubled Earth and feels overpowered by such divine grace..It is the wonderment of love that is defeating him, his escapism..I hear no complaint in his voice, but yearning and beauty and determination, when he 'winces' to add: "I'd go anywhere, and do anything just to touch your face"..That has nothing to do with some suicidal attempts or that type of death..It is clear as day..Songs like "Don't Walk Away" is very sad, and he feels defeated by loneliness there..But as long as God is on his side, making his dreams come true for him, even when dreaming, he is the happiest..
In the song "One More Chance", he actually sounds..extremely sad; in fact, he was probably foreseeing more tests awaiting him, like the trial...He sounds not like himself at all, actually, like he is about to burst into tears...:sad: He was very much yearning for love and help there, in an urgent way...
That's exxxxxxactly what I'm saying. Yep!!
Sometimes, you have to step away and listen to the sound of the earth. The best way to relieve stress is going around things that are not man made.
Oh! Interesting thoughts. I would like to hear more of your thoughts on that. There is a thread pertaining to that.

I also wanted to share a friends thoughts on Speechless with everyone. They don't post much.
I enjoyed reading my friends interpretations and asked if I could share them with you and they said that was fine.
:wub: Thank you so much and I totally agree with you...nature/earth speak Beautiful things to us ,but we have to stop and learn how to pay attention ...
It's relaxing just reading about it. Actually doing it must have been rrrrreally nice.True. Have you ever layed on the beach on the sand at night...just watching the stars and listening to the waves with a friend? If you haven't....DO IT, if you only can! It is AMAZING. It made us wanna spend the whole night out there...we could have just fallen asleep there. We didn't even talk....we were just laying there...watching the stars in silence....it was almost "spiritual" in a way!! When you see the dark sky and the stars twinkling in a distance and then all you can hear is the sound of the ocean in the background....It's like meditation. SO calming and relaxing. I can only recommend! Wish I could do it again!!! :yes:
Anyways...!! :lol:
You know what? I think we are in for some really lovely love songs. Have you noticed that the tone of the love songs he's been working on and releasing lately are getting softer and softer?
If he sings anything like "Liberian Girl" or "Lady In My Life" I am going to melt! :wub:

It seems like MJ spends a lot of time looking at the night sky. Remember the Christmas card he had put on his web site for the fans during the trial. He was standing in the dark looking at the stars. The stars on the card were twinkling. That was very sweet of him to give us a Christmas card. It was very nice.
:lol: I know...! :lol: Except when you keep watching it, all the different women he's not with anymore kind of "kill the mood"...:lol: I mean, the song is about a "lady in my life"...so it should be footage of ONE girl...preferably someone who is with him still! :lol: Grace? ;D :lol:ahhhh That video :woohoo:
Oh wow! You missed his online Christmas card?! It was really sweet. He had us click on it to turn the pages. I think he did this in December '04 shortly after releasing the "Ultimate Collection" box set.IT WAS!!!!!!!!!!! Very nice! Like I said...wish I could do it again. I LOVE the ocean...
And about the Christmas card....can't say I remember a card like that...:scratch:When was that? Do you have a picture of it by any chance? I must have missed that one...:scratch:

MJ...*imitating Diana* "If you need me...call me...no matter where you are...no matter how far"....:lmao: :lmao: :lmao:
Wow! You are a very strong person, summer! Very strong! I'm sure you miss your Dad. You really endured a lot during those years and you are just as cheerful as you can be.WHERE WAS I?????!!!!!!!!!! :mello: :lol: I can't remember that.... Then again...my dad had just recently died, I had just graduated and I had just started working...and then there was all that sad, stressful stuff with Michael...so there was just SO MUCH going on that a lot from 2003-2005 is sort of a "blur" to me anyways...I'd rather skip those years if I could. The card sounds really awesome and sweet though...Does anyone still have it? I'd love to see it!
:lmao:.........thats so true!!!
p.s.- sorry about your dad Summer!!

:flowers:
Yes, the card was really nice. :yes: I'll go look and see if I at least kept a screen shot so I can post the words. brb
Diana gets to have all the fun. Not fair. *pouts* :lol: :lol:
And thanks MJbabe. *hugs* It's okay now though...I miss my dad terribly and still cry often when something reminds me of him, but it feels "he's around". Weird thing is...he was always singing this one song that was his favorite...and it mentions a bird. And my dad died at 5:10 a.m....and now every morning...around that time...I have birds outside my window...So when ever I heard the birds, it makes me smile because in a way it feels like my dad is thinking of me and the birds are his way of "saying it". It could be just a coincidence too that the birds are there...but I like to think it's my dad thinking of me.
Heck yes Michael very much deserves it!!!!It was soooo cute how MJ looked after Diana got off of his lap. lol he was all covering is mouth heheh!!
