What did God say when Michael arrived? DID he arrive? Was he consoled and embraced and ultimately released from all of his childhood pain অথবা was he admonished for what many suspect but thankfully don't have confirmed?
There is an inescapable প্রশ্ন mark as to the ethics and balance of Michael Jackson that goes with him to his grave. It is most assuredly not what Michael had in mind when he set out to be pop music's "P.T. Barnum", the man in the middle of the circus.
Although, let's be real, anyone who reportedly invites a gossip tabloid to shoot him in a hyperbaric chamber courts the bizarre.
I was the last person to get Michael Jackson to go on camera. Technically, it was his last interview as I asked some প্রশ্ন and he answered them, but its not one I'd choose to hang my hat on. Michael was alternately petrified and obsessed with my camera. He loved the small HD handheld 24P size camera and demanded to know where he could get one. But, before the cameras got rolling, while sitting in the small রান্নাঘর of his temporary Irish countryside cottage, Michael asked, "Is 5 মিনিট ok?"
Interviews hadn't gone well for him in their aftermath since pre-Oprah in 1993.
Our meeting took place in October 2006 about 2 hours outside of Dublin in a recording studio. Will.i.am of The Black Eyed Peas was there, mixing and collaborating with Michael. Michael was much relieved to have Will যোগদান us and in truth, Will mostly did the talking. When the সঙ্গীত came on, MJ started tapping and moving. He got up and danced, he sang. I was 8 feet away. Wow. I'll always have that.
Of course my intent was to get him relaxed and talkative. It never really happened cuz that দেওয়াল wasn't coming down. I saw the pain in Michael. I knew he could not take one আরো ounce of disappointment. Michael simply wanted to be universally adored. Loved দ্বারা ALL. That leads to the ultimate conclusion of his death:
Michael will never be disappointed again. He is right now universally adored. His legacy of hits and impact on সঙ্গীত and everyone that came after him is undeniable and EVERYONE in the সঙ্গীত community will see to it that THAT দেওয়াল does not come down. Michael will be immortalized like Elvis, Lennon and JFK. Michael never met an honor he did not want to accept. The প্রণয় of yesterday and today means so much to him, so I'm sure he is finally.... happy. But back to God.
What did God say? "You are forgiven?", "I'm sorry?", "I made Quincy Jones, Berry Gordy and John Landis as well as Joe and Katherine, so therefore I made YOU!"? "You should have trusted Billy গুল্ম and loosened up. He was NOT there to 'catch' আপনি in any way?" (My personal regret related choice).
The enigma of that scenario is very much like its subjects, The Lord of Hosts and the King of Pop.
