Thanks, Bella.

Nice to have you around.

Yes, I hope he's found some peace at last.

Nice tribute and love it much. Thanks Neil for this.

I will say something about this later for my heart really must. Loved Ben, it for me was his best.

Much loved indeed. He gave so much of his genius to us we should of treated him with so 'much more respect'
in his dark hours, don't you think, Neil? We have lost a genius of modern music and we are darker now. He should
have lived longer he should have not been taken from us so sudden like this when the world needed him so much in
these times of war and brutality on a scale not known for many many thousands of years. We live in a dark age
but light disperses darkness let our rays of sunlight shine. One candle lights up the room in gloom.

At least he didn't suffer long, this is a blessing, please.





This is absolutely beautiful in every sense and way.

RIP MJ all my love

Thanks, Lovely.

Sadly, I think MJ had many dark hours, and many of them were perhaps caused by the treatment he felt he got from the public.

I don't think anyone will ever understand exactly what he was all about as a human being. There's no doubt the influence his music had, and it will continue to fill dancefloors (and hearts) for many many years to come.

I wasn't always a fan of his music, or public behaviour, but did feel moved enough by his death to write this short tribute.

Fame Fatale I guess.

Thanks again for you kind comments.

This has the feel of an anagram for me, Neil. Is it?

If not, it works fine anyway, but there just seems to be a slight oddness about the phrasing that (I think) you quite often get from anagrams.

Cheers
