The King of Pop, Michael Joseph Jackson

I really like famous personalities on postcards, although I do not have a lot in my collection. I swap with friends from everywhere whenever I find something of interest and here is but another one of my favorites among the few people in postcards I have collected.

Michael Jackson is one of my favorite artists, so when the opportunity to swap for a couple of his postcards arrived, I grabbed it instantaneously! This card features Michael Jackson of the late 80’s and the early 90’s {you know how his looks have changed drastically over time}. I thought he is one person that needs no further introduction as we all know who he is and what a brilliant singer/songwriter/performer he was during his time. After all, he will never be dubbed as the “King of Pop” for nothing.

Among my favorite Michael Jackson hits are “Remember The Time,” “Rock With You,” “Heal The World,” and his iconic “Thriller,” and “Billy Jean.” From what I remember he performed in Manila for a couple of times but I was not lucky to catch any of those shows. They were huge hits among Filipinos and people will always remember how Michael fired up the stage like no one else did. He’s got dazzling fireworks, larger than life production numbers, breathtaking musicality and instruments like amplifi and a whole lot more, the works! It would’ve been an experience of a lifetime to have been in one of his shows in the Philippines.

Michael Jackson’s family released a posthumous album in memory of the King of Pop, but I have mixed emotions about the project. Those were a collection of his unreleased music and I thought they have remained unreleased for a reason. I do not think Michael will be happy for the world to hear what he has not intended to release to the public in the first place. But that is just my two cent!

Thank you, Arnold for sending this MJ card, i really love it!
