The first song I put on after I heard about Michaels passing was ''Alicia Keys - Caged bird''.. Its so sad and beautiful.. I couldnt stop shedding the tears.... I couldnt get myself to listen to any of Michaels songs the first few days... Caged Bird reminded me of how he has spread his wings and can finally fly... I could literally feel how free he finally was..

Yesterday I finally decided to put on one of Michaels songs... The ones that caught my ear was:

Take me back
We're almost there
Forever came today
Smile
Childhood
Elizabeth, I love you

I havent managed to listen to any other songs.. All my favorite dance songs of Michael wont make me dance in a while....

Ah........

i had to wait a few days. as far as i was concerned, music was dead for the most part. then i listened to 'on the line', 'beautiful girl', get on the floor', 'the girl is mine', 'unbreakable', 'can't help it', 'bad', 'we've had enough',
 
for a very long time i could not listen to any kind of music at all. and then i listened to coldplay's "fix you" and it seemed to be just perfect.. "tears stream down your face when you lose something you can not replace, tears stream down your face and i will fix you". it's a song chris martin wrote after his wife gwyneth paltrow's dad passed away.. i'm still waiting for someone to fix me..
 
I have only been able to listen to music that is unfamiliar because otherwise I have associations with m and I just feel unbearably sad. I can't listen to Michael's music yet.
 
Took me a while to listen to anything, but Morphine. I looped the bridge for hours. At first it was heartbreaking, but then I really started listening to the arrangement of the choir, strings, and everything else. It was amazing, I really hope that Billboard article was accurate in that he was working on a classical album. Man, that guy has no boundaries.
 
i listening to this song when I heard the news from my facebook page. I usually always have MJ songs on when im at my computer

 
Before I heard of Michael's passing (which I still can't believe) the last song of his I listened to whilst I thought he was still alive was Time Waits For No One, on The Jacksons Triumph album.

The first song of Michael's I listened to on after Michael's passing was Don't Stop Till You Get Enough. I still listen to Michael's music and watch his short films and concets etc as much as I ever have, and I feel he's still in the world with us when doing so. When I'm not listening to his music etc, I feel an emptiness.
 
Smooth criminal , then the next day Stranger in Moscow ! < - then you start feeling it
 
I've listen to many Michael songs since his passing. I've leaned more toward the upbeat, dance songs over the more sentimental songs. I couldn't bring myself to listen to "She's Out of My Life," "Childhood," "You Are Not Alone," "I'll Be There," etc.
 
"Don’t walk away
See I just can’t find the right thing to say
I tried but all my pain gets in the way
Tell me what I have to do so you’ll stay
Should I get down on my knees and pray



And how can I stop losing you
How can I begin to say
When there’s nothing left to do but walk away

I close my eyes
Just to try and see you smile one more time
But it’s been so long now all I do is cry

Can’t we find some love to take this away
‘Cause the pain gets stronger every day


How can I begin again
How am I to understand
When there’s nothing left to do but walk away...

See now why
All my dreams been broken
I don’t know where we’re going

Everything we said and all we done now
Don’t let go, I don’t wanna walk away
Now why
All my dreams been broken
Don’t know where we’re going
Everything begins to set us free
Can’t you see, I don’t wanna walk away

If you go, I won’t forget you MICHAEL
Can’t you see that you will always be
Even though I had to let you go
There’ nothing left to do
Don’t walk away"​
 
I've been constantly listening to "Gone too Soon", "Music & Me", "Childhood" and "With a Child's Heart" :(

It's been a week and I still can't believe this is happening. A week "without" Michael, but he's closer than ever, if u know what I mean.
 
I've been going through his entire catalogue - J5 and Jacksons included, of course.
From 'Wings of my Love' to 'Push Me Away', from 'Money' to 'One More Chance'.
His ballads relax me...that beautiful voice - we'll always have it.
And his angry songs make me feel good. They remind me that after all the sadness, we're still fighting for/against something.
