I watched the VH-1 special about Michael last night, and I thought about him all day today. I was seventeen when “Kick” came out, and I remember being enthralled with that album. And I wasn't the only one--my entire high school was raving about the album, and it was always playing during lunch breaks in the school parking lot. The “Kick” concert in South Florida was the event of the year, and I remember people describing the event with frenzied excitement. At age 30, hearing any track off “Kick” brings back all those feelings in me.
I hope his family and friends find comfort in knowing that he deeply touched so many people...people he never even met.
I just can't believe he's gone.
