I wish that love song had charted better. It has so much emotion, and the way his voice breaks in it really moves you. My favorite love song is The Lady in My Life!! There is something about that song and the way Michael sings it that drives me crazy!!

That quote is really Michael. He is really goal driven, which I like. One can only imagine what else he would have created if he was left alone in peace to live & do what he really loved & can do!!

^^Thanks for putting up that magazine cover, because I did not know what Class was. Now I see it is a Black magazine.
