nice!!Have a safe trip and enjoy everything you will be doing in London!
I do recall the History era, back then I didn't really like Scream
I remember watching Earth song on MTV
I'm glad you've had a great time! Wow, you've bought a lot of stuff too! Cool!Back from London since yesterdaynight. I really had an amazing time. It was so great. I really love London. Been there once before.
The exhibition was great, but had a double feeling, it was sad too, but I'm really glad that I had the chance to see it. I really loved the piano! That was so beautiful. And the car! haha
And all the jackets and other clothes. Wanted to touch them
Bought some nice stuff too. From the exhibition the Thrillerjacket (het vest zeg maar)
and keyrings, also for my friends.
And in the souvernirsshops all around London, I bought a bad-mug and some weenyicons, or something, things from Michael, like a little mirror and a mug and a phonehanger.
Also bought a 3dposter, picture from him during a badtourconcert.
O, and I bought a white Smooth criminal-like hat. Maybe I wear it to GOTF. Really looking forward to that now!
Wow you bought a lot of stuff
I wish I had been to the exhibition.
I'm looking forward to GOTF now too we're also gonna visit the statue before we go to Veldhoven and have something to eat there
or else I still wouldn't have known him) After the film I was surprised. What was that man good! Why didn't I knew him before, I thought. And then I found myself wanting to go to the film another time and another time. Every time we went to the cinema for another movie, I asked my friends to go to This is it in stead or afterwards again. At the end we'd seen This is it like nine times or something in the cinema. I thought, That's crazy, that someone touches me so much and inspires me so, so I became curious to the man himself and not only the performer. So I decided to read about him. Didn't want any rubbish abbout him, so I bought Moonwalk. I wanted to read his own story in his own words. I started reading and I couldn't put the book away. I also started to watch everything I could find on youtube and bought all the available dvds and watched them every day. That's when I realised that I really admired him.
Haha yes
That's nice to visit the statue, is it near Veldhoven?
with good old Michael?"
Don't mind it's big, it B-E BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
I love to read stories about how everyone became a fan and why they are a fan!
So keep posting them please!
I wil post mine here too:
I am actually and old/new fan, haha!
Just as you Femke, I was around 10/11 years old when I became a fan.
I saw the video from "Earth Song" and was addicted to MJ from that moment on.
At the time I only cared about his music and his voice and the way he looked
Me and my best friend could talk about nothing else but Michael, Michael, Michael......
And we got the chance, thanks to our lovely parents, to see him perform live in the Arena.
I never felt happier before at that moment!!
But the years after I have to admit that Mike slowly started to fade away for me.
I got older, got interested in other artists, other things in live also.
And Michael got less and less active in the music field.
Although I would still read things about him when he was in the news or something and listened to his albums now and then, it was more of a sentimental feeling, you know.
Like, with my friend, saying: "Ah, remember the time
And even when he announced the This is it concerts I was like: "Nice, but I am not gonna go or something".
And then.........june 25th.
It hit me harder then I could ever imagine...........
And since that day I've been a bigger fan then I ever was before.
Because I now also see, apart from the singing, the voice and the looks, the art of his videos and his dancing and above all.........the beautiful person he was.
It is as you guys already said.
I admire him so much now, that he inspires me every day.
The way he thought about live, the way he treated other the people, the way he wanted to heal the world, help the children..........and so on and so on..........
I have also felt much pain since he died.
I never thought I would feel so much sadness about his passing, but I do.
Partly because of the reason Angela mentioned before, that I feel like I abandond him for so many years, but mainly just because this angel is gone.
He made the world a little brighter and now we have to do it ourselves!!
May that also be his lesson, to do everything in the name of L.O.V.E, just like Michael used to do.

It was actually quite interesting, many interviews and it was more positive than negative towards MJ. They were very open and I've never seen such an open docu before, they also showed who he was and so on, and how the world reacted etc. Whatever might be the truth, they don't go into that but just tell things how they were. Some lines were..odd...but overall it was good.
cry, it would give unknown people some more insight.

And beautiful video's of Michael as well
I hope this will be up on YouTube, it's quite worth watching.
I like him for who he is and what he did yes, and ofcourse also his music. But the real admiration is because of who he is. Other artists I like, I just like their music and that's it. But with Michael I immediatly had the feeling he inspires me. That's why I started to read so much about him, and I joined this forum.
Beautiful to see how he has that effect on people
