I’ll Be There

Before I even get into the subject of this blog I know that I will probably get a lot of flack for my opinion. However, with that being said. It is MY blog and I have the right to voice my thoughts. I don’t expect you to agree with me. I do ask however, that we leave hate at the door and act like the adults we all are.

Tonight someone on facebook posted a video to a song “I’ll Be There”. It was the Michael Jackson version. I don’t ever remember him singing it. I do however love Mariah Carey’s rendition of it. I quickly went to youtube and pulled it up and was listening to it. While there I saw a few comments that really bothered me. So many saying Michael Jackson’s version was better.  Yeah, so that’s a matter of opinion.

My issue is this, and I’m not going to sugar coat it for anyone. He is a pedophile. I have no respect for him and when he passed away, while I didn’t rejoice, I certainly didn’t mourn his passing.
Many say he didn’t do it and found fault with all the witnesses.  The one thing that sticks in my mind is when the first one came to light the child was supposed to look at a picture to identify some unusual markings on MJ’s penis. Right before MJ was supposed to get the pic done he went and had it bleached. How convenient for him. So of course it would look different in the pic.  Now we all know MJ had skin issues and needed treatments so on and so forth.  Yes the father of the victim was out for money. Does that mean the child was not only victimized by MJ but then again by his own father?

Yes MJ did wonders for the music industry and brought forth so much to it, so on and so forth. I DO acknowledge that.  However, how can we in good conscience hold a person who was so dark on the inside and had countless victims in such high esteem? If he was anyone else people would have been saying throw him away and lose the key.  I just don’t get it.  I do get that money and fame talk.

Anyway…here is the music video to “I’ll Be There” by Mariah Carey. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
