In the pic with Michael ~ Rev. Gregory Seal Livingston who paid this tribute to Michael in 2009. 'Never can say Goodbye'

"But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me." These are the words of King David after the death of his infant son.

I use them for Michael Jackson because he indeed was the eternal child. Always curious. Always playful. Always believing that the best was still to come.

I remember playing with Michael's children as he looked on. We shared a laugh that big kids laugh when they watch the unlearned joy of little ones playing -- oblivious to headlines, paparazzi and muckrakers.

My time spent with Michael always brought about a host of questions from my friends and colleagues who were also fans: "Does he really have that skin disease? (yes)", "Is his voice really that high? (most of the time until he would go straight GI (Gary, Indiana) on you)", "Yo, G, you think he's a pedophile? (No. Just a showbiz juggernaut who was always trying to recapture his childhood)."

Now of course for an infinite number of days Michael's life will be analyzed, scrutinized, demonized and canonized. Like Elvis and Tupac, he will be seen darting through supermarket parking lots and wearing his trademark disguises while watching a summer blockbuster.

However from my faith tradition the words of King David tell the real story: The Thriller, the manchild who lived among us for fifty years won't be coming back to do a Redemption Tour. Ed, Farrah and Michael a strange trinity who ruled pop culture won't, of course, be coming back, but we all one day, my friends, shall go to them.
Love ya Mike. See ya in the bye and bye...

~ Rev. Gregory Seal Livingston

I really Love this photo of Michael with Rob Swinson 'Maker of Dreams' with the beautiful Neverland carousel.
Rob's dedication to Michael.If my friend Michael Jackson were still here today, I would tell him:
“Thank you, Michael, for allowing me to share some of your footsteps on your path through life… I hope you have found the peacefulness so much desired, and may God bless you for what you were able to accomplish during your too brief of a lifetime here on Earth!” Love always – in your name. ~ Rob – your Maker of Dreams

"Michael had an amazing, almost startlingly good memory for names. In my current daily life of family, work, church, casual friends, close friends, neighbors, etc., I might have 200-300 names to keep track of, give or take a few. Michael had friends all over the world, record company execs, musicians, dancers, engineers, producers, lawyers, family, friends, business associates, employees, on and on. Yet despite that endless list of people, I don't recall him ever stumbling over a name or nickname. He always greeted people (including me) by name, immediately. Looking back on it, it is pretty amazing, given the huge circle of friends he had" ~ Brad Sundberg

Brad's next "In The Studio With MJ" seminar will be in Toronto, Canada, get to it if you can.

Lynn Goldsmith Photographer To Biggest Stars Like MJ!


By Daily Mail Reporter / UPDATED: 01:00 EST, 22 November 2013


A date with rock and roll royalty: Photographer to the genres biggest stars captures the essence of music legends from Bruce Springsteen to Michael Jackson and Frank Zappa

Few photographers have had as much access to as many of rock and roll’s biggest stars as Lynn Goldsmith, whose pictures tell a visual tale of the genre spanning nearly half a century.

Goldsmith has documented the careers and received unprecedented access to the personal lives of larger than life rock heroes from Bruce Springsteen to Michael Jackson and the Rolling Stones.

Goldsmith’s work is iconic even to those who’ve never heard her name.

She’s won all the awards, her work has appeared on all the magazine covers, and she’s met every music legend one can name.

Her newest book came out this month and lays to rest any question that she isn’t the queen of rock and roll photography.

Rock and Roll Stories is a visual feast that does just what the name says: it tells the story of the genre by catching on film musicians exhibiting the essence of what it means to be rock and roll royalty.

In Rock and Roll Stories, Goldsmith describes the day she spent with Michael Jackson in Disney World ‘Michael’s shyness could take over if there were people around just staring at him when he was not performing, so I blasted a James Brown tape and busted out my best JB dance moves. Michael joined me.’
