HIS PATIENCE WAS INFINITE
 
”No matter were he was or what he was doing. The kids always had access to him, and they knew it. If he was in a meeting and one of the kids needed him for something, he’d stop everything, attend to the child, then return. If they made a fuss about going to sleep, he stayed with them, talked to them, explaining why they had to go to sleep and what he was doing or where he would be. He soothed them if they were upset. He never handed off a crying child to Grace or a babysitter. He always had the patience to stay with his children until they were calm. He always took that time, no matter how late for an appointment it would cause him to be. He was never angry or frustrated. His patience was infinite, and the result was that his children were grounded, secure and open to the world“ ~ Frank Cascio, "My friend Michael"

IMMERSE
 

“In the studio, Jackson had very specific preferences. Before singing, he would often request a scalding hot drink with cough drops to relax his vocal chords. He liked the music so loud his collaborators often had to wear earplugs or leave the room. He usually sang with the lights off, as the darkness allowed him to totally immerse himself in the song without feeling self-conscious.

 

As he sang, he also danced, stomped, or snapped his fingers. If he didn’t have the lyrics written yet, he would simply scat through the song or make up words as he went along. In between sessions he liked to doodle on stray pieces of paper or play with animals he brought in, including his chimpanzee, Bubbles, and his python, Muscles (who enjoyed the warmth of the control board)” - Joseph Vogel ‘Man in the Music’

FRÅGOR TILL MJFAM
Jag hittade dessa frågor ställda till Michael Jacksons fans på en sida och tyckte det vore kul att besvara dem här.
 
1. How does being a Michael Jackson fan make you feel?
Det får mig att känna mig hedrad och oerhört glad. Många människor förstår inte honom och vad han handlar om. Jag höjer ena mungipan och skakar på huvudet när jag läser eller hör av anonyma att han var svår att förstå och att han var omänsklig. Ingen var så lätt att förstå som honom. Ingen var så mänsklig som honom. Deras sinnen måste vara blinda.
 
2. What is your ultimate song by Michael Jackson?
"Will you be there", för den uttrycker att en människa behöver älska men samtidigt älskas tillbaka. Det handlar om mänsklighet och därmed sårbarhet, och tyvärr är inte alla människor villiga att visa denna grundläggande sida av dem. Egentligen kan jag inte välja en favoritlåt men om det vore ett "välj eller dö"-ögonblick så skulle jag välja denna.
 
3. What one song describes how you are feeling right at this moment?
"Free".
 
4. If you could choose only one, which tour or performance would you have liked to seen live? Why?
"You are not alone" under HIStory Tour och att jag var tjejen som fick komma upp på scenen! :) Jag hade velat se This is it-turnén naturligtvis, för det var den jag var ämnad att se.
 
5. What angry song by Michael Jackson is your favourite?
"D.S", för Michael är så elak i den mot äckliga Tom Sneddon och jag älskar det. Han förtjänar varje ord och varje rad i den låten. Fyfan.
 
6. What is your favourite ever outfit?
Herregud! Hans stil var ajdfnkffhjbmnew!! Speciellt de senare åren! De slappa Ed Hardy-kläderna i den undre bilden bara skriker hur skön han var. Och silkesmasken och skorna bidrar till det skriket. Kul att veta är att jackorna i de två övre bilderna är damjackor! Han passade i allt.
       
  
 
7. What is your best shared experience of being a Michael Jackson fan?
När jag fick reda på att min syster hade fått tag på biljetter till This is it över telefonen. "Hej jag vill meddela att du ska få se Michael Jackson på scen i sommar" – jag slutade andas för ett litet tag.
 
8. What is your favourite lyric or quote by him?
 
"The creative process doesn't involve time clocks or quota systems; it involves inspiration and the willingness to follow through".
 
"Some friends are like shadows - you only see them when the sun shines. But my fans sustained me even in the dark days. I owe them everything.
 
"I love to tour!" (Detta förstår bara MJFam, haha)
 
"Don't tell me you agree with me when I saw you kicking dirt in my eye".
 
"People don't look at themselves and point the finger; it's always the other guy's fault".
 
"If you enter this world knowing you are loved and you leave this world knowing the same, then everything that happens in between can be dealt with".
 
"You can't hurt me, I found peace within myself".
 
"The fans don't know how much I love them so. It really can get to a hurting feeling due to how strong I love them all".
 
"When all life is seen as divine, everyone grows wings".
 
"I'm going to search for my star until I find it. It's hidden in the drawer of innocence, wrapped in a scarf of wonder".
 
"If you don't believe in yourself, who will?"
 
"Don't be afraid to know who you are; you are much more than you ever imagined".
 
"What happened to the truth? Did it go out of style?"
 
"Be humble, believe in yourself and have the love of the world in your heart."
 
"Whatever you believe, you become".
 
"My goal in life is to give the world what I was lucky to receive".
 
"When you want to be close to me, listen to the music - the love is stored there and will not die".
 
"I've always believed that the real measure of celebrity success is not just how famous he becomes, but what he does with that fame and fortune".
 
"My attitude is if fashion says it's forbidden, I'm going to do it".
 
"Stop existing and start living".
 
"Before you judge me, try hard to love me".
 
"I love you more".
 
Etc.
 
9. If you could ask one thing to Michael Jackson, what would it be?
Jag skulle fråga... Jag skulle fråga om det gjorde ont när han föll ned från himlen. ... Haha, jag vet inte.
 
10. What song[s] of his do you think is underrated?
"Stranger in Moscow" helt klart. Den låten är ett mästerverk på otaliga nivåer. Även "Invincible" och "Morphine" (jag antar att denna låt då den handlar om droger är svår att accepteras och uppskattas av många).
 
11. What do you think are the best ways to honour his memory and legacy?
Spela hans musik. Högt. Och dansa till musiken. Ignorera lögnerna och tillrättvisa de som tror på dem.
 
12. What short film/music video is your favourite?
Kortfilmen till "Bad". Budskapet, Wesley Snipes och Michaels skådespelarprestationer, koreografin, Michael är så SNYGG, slutdelen då han predikar "You're doin' wrong!" vilket jag kan se hundra gånger om - därför är det min favorit. Då man vet att låten och koreografin är skapad av Michael gör även att man uppskattar den ännu mer.
 
 
 
13. What song do you listen to when you need cheering up?
Att bara höra hans röst är allt vad som krävs. På riktigt.
 
14. What has Michael Jackson taught you?
Att vara stark vad som än händer, framför allt. Att våga vara sårbar är ett fantastiskt sätt att leva. Att tro på mig själv. Att skapa och vara kreativ. Att jag aldrig ska sluta undervisa mig själv om saker och ting. Att det är ingenting fel med att alltid älska barndomens betydelser. Att det är väsentligt att ha ett öppet hjärta och ett öppet sinne. Hur elaka människor kan vara mot andra människor (baserat på hur vidrigt elaka människor har varit mot honom). Att en enda kan ena otaliga människor genom konst. Att jag ska följa mina drömmar. Att vara tålmodig och ödmjuk. Att vilja bli en tillgiven förälder åt mina barn. Att det är väsentligt att aldrig någonsin släppa taget om barndomens fantasi. Att inte döma förrän jag har försökt förstå. Att i första hand se med hjärtat än med ögonen. Att vissa val hänger helt och hållet på individen och att ingen annan har rätt att ifrågasätta dessa val. Att göra det bästa jag kan i det element jag intresserar mig i och att det är hårt arbete - tro inte för allt i världen att det inte kommer att kräva mycket av din tid och att det kommer vara enkelt. ... Han lär mig nya saker hela tiden och fortsätter att påminna mig om vad han har lärt mig.

HE KNEW WHY THEY DIDN'T COME
 

Bill Whitfield: ..there was one memory that kept running through my mind, a conversation I’d had with Grace back at the Monte Cristo house when I first started working there. She and I were in the garage. I was putting together some of the security equipment, and Grace was at the little workstation she’d set up. Mr Jackson had told her to try and get in touch with somebody.

She was getting frustrated and she said, ”The boss wants me to get in touch with this person, and I keep leaving messages, but nobody’s calling me back. It’s like he forgets sometimes that people don’t want anything to do with him after all this mess." I said, “What mess? What are you talking about?" 

“The trial,” she said. ” Since the trial, a lot of people just don’t call back anymore.”

She was giving me the heads up, filling me in on how things worked, like she often did. She started telling me about the days right after the trial was over. “After he was acquitted," she said, "we had a party at Neverland for him to celebrate, and nobody came.”

”Nobody?”

”A few people," she said, "but not many”.

She said they’d put together a guest list of all these friends and people Mr. Jackson had worked with over the years. They invited close to three hundred people. Maybe fifty showed up. And a lot of people who did come were people that worked for him. People that worked the grounds at Neverland. People from his lawyer’s office. People who were paid to be there. Everyone else called and said they couldn’t make it or they had other things planned.

”And he knew," Grace said, "He knew why they didn’t come. People called him and told that they loved him and that they were praying for him, but very few people would go public and say that they believed him. A lot of people act like his friends but not they’re not really his friends. If he’s not making money, they’re not really around.”

WATER RUNS DEEP

 

“What I can say about Katherine, is she has the most gentle soul of any one I have ever met. And she loved her children. She was really a very good mother to the children. She knew where every single one of them was at all times while she was also working. She did keep them off the street. Many don’t know this but she helped me a lot rehearsing the kids. Although she does not celebrate birthdays she knows all their birthday’s by heart. We’ve been through a lot together

 

Her unique character. When Katherine and I argue as couples sometimes do, I am not worried at all if she is loud, shouts or screams at me. But when she gets really quiet, ooh that is when I know to be very very careful around her. Still water runs deep. There is so much of Michael in her.”

FOREVER THE KING OF POP
Anonym: Har du ett youtube konto? för har du sett den kommentaren en kille kommentare om att Justin Timberlake är den nya king of pop? värsta är att den har fått 113 likes också, liksom INGEN kan ersätta MJ. JT kan vara prince of pop men ej KING.
 
Tanken att obildade människor en dag kommer acceptera att en annan artist tar över Michael Jacksons titel skrämmer mig. Men jag tror ärligt talat att det aldrig kommer hända; förhoppningsvis är de med sågspån i huvudet angående detta väldigt få och håller sig liten i mängden under hela människans existens.

Michael Jackson and books

 

"It was Rose who instilled in me a love of books
and literature that sustains me today.
I read everything I could get my hands on.
New cities meant new places to shop.
We loved to shop, especially in bookstores and department stores,”
~ Michael Jackson, Moonwalk

 

"She [Miss Rose Fine] taught me the wonderful world of books and reading
and I wouldn’t be the same person if it wasn’t for her.”
~ Michael Jackson

 

“I love to read. I wish I could advise more people to read. There’s a whole new world in books. If you can’t afford to travel, you travel mentally through reading. You can see anything and go any place you want to in reading.”
~ Michael Jackson


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


MJ: “I watch cartoons. I love cartoons. I play video games. Sometimes I read.”
Q: “You mean you read books?”
MJ: “Yeah. I love to read short stories and everything.”
Q: “Any in particular?”
MJ: “Somerset Maugham.. Whitman. Hemingway. Twain.”

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Javon: That’s how he filled all those hours by himself: books. He’d read anything and everything he could get his hands on. History. Science. Art. There were so many trips to Barnes & Noble. It was almost a weekly thing. He would go into bookstores and drop five thousand dollars like he was buying a pack of gum. At one point, he actually bought a bookstore—I’m talking about an entire bookstore. He paid cash for it. ~Remember the time: protecting Michael Jackson in his final days

SNICKERING
  
  
 
Out of sheer boredom, Michael use to dial room service knowing full well the kitchen didn’t have what he was about to order. "I’ll have some collard greens… some cornbread… and some black-eyed peas," he’d say, as if reading the items off a menu. "Send ‘em up right now!" Then he’d hang up snickering. And when no knock at the door came, he’d call again. "I’m waiting for my collard greens…"

”Photographer Sam Emerson has taken some of my fave pics of Michael and though we have seen these a hundred times, I just love the ‘fun’ behind these 2 pics ~ Sam explains “We were walking in Wien [Austria] and I saw these two old ladies sitting on a bench and told Michael to sit next to them. They had no idea who he was. They had about 80 years! It was fun!”

LOVEY DOVEY
 
"Michael was living full time at Neverland Ranch. And all of a sudden, here comes Lisa Marie on the stairs in a bathrobe. We thought, 'Well, hey, what's up here? She spent the night up here? With Michael?' And then here comes Michael down the stairs in his Mickey Mouse pajamas with a big grin on his face. The two were lovey dovey at breakfast and she hasn't left his side by then." ~ The Magic and the Madness (januari 1994), J. Randy Taraborrelli

FAKTA #65
 
The Bad World Tour was the debut solo concert tour by American recording artist Michael Jackson. Sponsored by Pepsi and spanning 16 months, the tour included 123 concerts to 4.4 million fans across 15 countries. The tour grossed $125 million, adding two new entries in the Guinness World Records for the largest grossing tour in history and the tour with the largest attended audience. Passing out, fainting, headaches, hysteria and being crushed amongst the huge crowds were a common occurrence for the fans in the audience. The Japan leg of the tour caused such excitement amongst crowds that Michael was dubbed “Typhoon Michael” by the Japanese press. Concerts were also attended by luminaries in the fields of entertainment and royalty, such as Stevie Wonder, Elizabeth Taylor, Princess Diana, Prince Charles, Bob Dylan and Jack Nicholson. In his downtime, Michael donated a large portion of his earnings from the tour to various charitable causes including the United Negro College Fund, Bambino Gesù Hospital, the Prince’s Trust, Give For Life and the Great Ormond Street Hospital.

MICHAEL ON OPRAH

 

Jag har alltid sett hela versionen av den här intervjun på YouTube, men eftersom jag ville hitta någon video med bättre kvalitet än den så hittade jag denna på Vimeo. Och videon på YouTube var tydligen klippt så om ni inte har sett när han säger "Go down the list, Oprah" vid 19:19 så måste ni göra det. :) Så söööt. Och även vid 50:40 hade jag inte sett tidigare!

DEEPER
   
 
En fantastisk reflektion som ett fan har skrivit om detta:
 
Good parenting skills. The thing I love about this is that Michael’s questions are deeper than ‘what do you want to be when you grow up?’

 

It’s more about helping his children find a place in this world and acknowledge that there is responsibility and accountability. That it’s about the future and your part in it. It’s not about a ‘job’ or ‘how are you going to make money?’ but about what kind of human being you are going to grow into and what you are going to do about becoming that human being. It’s about action and the bigger picture. Even if children don’t know the answer to the question he was teaching them to think about it on a different level.

SCHOOL
 

“I think school is the most important thing that a person can do. For themselves. Er…whatever you feel your endeavor is in life, whatever your interest is, your goal, school gives you a great education to drive it through, to make it come true. And er…what else could teach you whatever your interest is ? I love entertainment and er…there’s a lot of people I love to watch and study. My favorite subject was Art and… English. As far as the writing mainly, Art is a big part, I mean, sometimes I would look at a painting and create whole songs from the painting. ~ MJ, Soulbeat Interview 1979

FORCED
 
"When do I feel lonely? Uh, usually in hotels. When there’s thousands of fans chanting out in the street … Chanting because they love you and everything, and you can’t get out, you feel trapped inside. And you just cry, you feel lonely, you know? And there’s all that love out there. But still, you really do feel trapped and lonely that you can’t get out. And if you go to a book store, if you go out, if you go to a club — which I don’t like clubs — you know… every book you buy, they want to know ‘Why are you buying this? Why is Michael Jackson buying this? Why is he reading this?’ or [when] you go to the club, as soon as you go in there, every song is my song — as if I want to hear my music — and everybody starts chanting for me to dance. So it becomes a show all over again. So you can’t go anywhere… I don’t want to complain, like I’m complaining, because it comes with the territory. But I don’t think people understand the other side that comes with it. They’re so quick to call you strange and weird, but it’s almost as if you’re forced to be different. Because it’s not a normal life, you know?"

FAKTA #64
 
I december 2011 frågade Amnesty International "Who is your Human Rights Hero?" – svaret blev Michael Jackson. Ett bevis på Michaels enorma (och dominanta) inflytande att försöka hjälpa världen.

FAKTA #63
 
Ett sällsynt ögonblick då Michael utan tvekan imiterar stridstekniken som tillhör Bruce Lee under ett uppträdande av "Beat It". Michael var ett stort fan av Bruce Lee och var förfärad över att de aldrig träffades.

IMPRESSIVE
 
“Although it never made any of his greatest hits collections, 'Stranger In Moscow' is one of Michael Jackson’s most impressive artistic achievements and, over time, will no doubt be recognized as such.” ~ Joe Vogel

SAKE

 

Michael and Isao Tomita - Tokyo, September 24, 1987

 

"When Michael toured Japan in ‘87, he was invited to dinner at a famous composer’s house, where he was offered a cup of Sake. The translator had told Michael before the meal that the Japanese tradition states that you should continue to eat and drink until there is nothing left on your plate or in your glass. Michael heard that the rice wine is made from 100% rice and very pure, so he wanted to try a few drops. The cup was so small that he soon emptied it, and the composer poured him some more. Michael, not wanting to ignore the tradition or to offend, drank this second glass of wine too. This continued again…and again…and again, until Michael realized that he simply couldn’t drink any more. So he took the little cup and passed it under the table to the translator, who drank the wine and passed it back in its original place. The translator drank the wine again and again for his boss."
