In a democratic society it has never been the duty of the accused to prove his innocence but that of the prosecutor to prove the accused guilty. Michael Jackson was never found guilty of any charges laid against him and he remains innocent even today.
He will be remembered as the King of Pop, as a singer and a dancer who changed the landscape of music industry from his young age.
In March this year Michel stated he will be performing for the last time in his 10 concert comeback which he labelled "The final curtain call".
"I will see you in July" were his last world, to some extent he was right as the whole world gathered this month to celebrate his life and successes.
The chorus from one of his songs, we are the world, says: "We are the world/We are the children/We are the ones who make a brighter day/So let's start giving/There's a choice we're making/We're saving our own lives/It's true we'll make a better day/Just you and me"
It is clear from the song and his other songs that Michael enjoyed being around children. It is a pity that his love for children has haunted him in his life. From the same song he urges that it is time to start giving hence he made donations to all kind of organisations around the world. Even organisation like Red Cross in Africa has benefited from his donations. He has saved lives; it is a pity those donations will be no more.
Though you are no more Michael, your comeback in the month of July has been successfully accomplished. The songs your fans like are dominating music charts just around the world as wished. Your music and moves will dominate generation to generations.
