This year 34 years and counting :blush:
It seems like a lifetime, hey! I always thought I was the only MJ fan too as no one seem to understand why I chose MJ :scratch:
Anyway, when I was a sweet 16 lol I only had ONE friend who then understood me and it was only in 1994, I discovered the 'fanbase' and then later when the net took over my life lol. I discovered the 'online community' in 2001 and the rest is HIStory as they say!
My very first MJ song I heard and intrigued me is "The girl is mine" :wub: I looked up the name of the artist and felt like an instant 'connection' so I had to check out his videos too. "Beat it " was the first video I laid eyes on and the 'spark' hit me. Right then and there, I literally fell in love with MJ :blush:
"Thriller" was my first album and cassette and I started to save every article and piccie of MJ. Family would always buy MJ stuff for me too.
Though, I never really seen MJ as an 'idol' maybe cause I'm an only child I saw MJ more as the bro' I never got and my 'best friend' :blush:
