What is going to happen with us now?

Like I said, I NEED MJJC!!!!!!!!!
If people stop coming here and the page starts to go "dead" I don't know what I would do =/
 
I hate it too. :mello: The only reason people compare them is because he married his daughter..BARF.................................

That's certainly not true, they were compared way before that. And comparison doesn't mean they have to be exactly the same, for example you can say Michael Jackson was even bigger than Elvis. Because before Mike, Elvis was the biggest in history. And we're not talking about talent or music even, usually they're compared because of the public reception to them, the fanbase, the -mania. Elvis, The Beatles, Michael. Unparallelled in success and iconic status. Legenary in death as well as in life.
 
I hate that comparison it's not the same thing will people stop bringing his name in the picture? there are so many differences
I respect and like Elvis but it's not the same thing

we only compare because they are known as hardcore fans like we are with michael. and elvis and michael became huger than any other solo singers. no matter what anyone thinks of either of them.
but its not only elvis fans either, alot of artists/ or iconic stars have hardcore followings too, but if you look at it even now with another musical star alone, you can see elvis fans still wish he was alive..''i saw elvis ghost'' i saw him in the drugstore'' this may seem like innocent jokes, but i think now that michael died, i understand elvis fans even more now. and its still like that and its been how many years now that he has passed, and he died even younger. we are comparing to show we arent alone in suffering. im sure elvis fans are seeing we are going through the same thing now in our generation. thats all :) they got through it and we will have to as well.
 
Well as long as MJJC is here, I am too. I hope the fan community doesn't die out, at least not online anyway. I hope we can all just continue to work together to keep MJ's legacy alive and as far as excitement goes, well unfortunately it will never the same with MJ gone now, but I am really looking forward to hearing new/unrleased songs from MJ. Hopefully, an album will be released, one that's up to par of course with the rest of MJ's work, but I really want to hear new material. Michael has lived such an exciting, complicated, mysterious and overall fascinating life, there's so much we don't know and so much we'll probably never know about him. It will never be the same without MJ, but there's still a lot more to come i'm sure. As long as i'm alive though, i'll remain an MJ fan. I'm not going anywhere.
 
Look, I love Michael madly and what happened on June 25th damaged me beyond repair. I know this pain will never go away, but I know I will move on!

In his 50 years, Michael not only gave us a lot of joy, wonderful music, wonderful dance and wonderful teachings, but he also gave us something we should never let go of - A FAMILY!

Yes, we are the Michael Jackson Family of Fans. We are united in our love for him, in our desire for justice, in our goal to help him make the world a better place, in our efforts to become better every day.
Once Michael came into our lives, many things changed. Can anyone say that wasn't the case for them? One way or another, he affected our existence and, God knows how, made it more beautiful. What we have learned from him is a priceless treasure that we are to keep within our hearts for as long as we live. We not only owe it to him, but to ourselves as well.

Do you honestly feel that you were coming on the forum or meeting fans just to discuss new releases or what he wore the last time we saw him? Hell no! We come here, we discuss, we meet because we have things to share, because we need each other and we feel comfortable sticking together.

With or without Michael, I still am a Michael Jackson fan, lover and follower! By saying that, I am also claiming that I plan on continuing his legacy and loving his fans for as long as my heart allows me to. I am not going to give up on this family, virtual or not!

We were one of the biggest joys in Michael's life. It's no secret that he loved us madly and would do anything for us. We also know that he was truly grateful for our love, and never took it for granted. But that's not all! Michael felt happy not only seeing us together, chanting his name, songs and our love for him - he felt even happier to see us ALL - regardless of age, sex, race, religion, sexual orientation and whatever you want - together, hand in hand, united because we love him, because OF him!

I never want to lose that, I want Michael to forever smile while looking at us from up above. I want him to smile and feel accomplished knowing that those who love him will always stick together, smiling back at him, with their hearts beating as one, as he wanted it.

Nothing is going to happen to us! We are going to move on with our lives and continue coming here, for ourselves and for him. For the better place he has created! :flowers:

We're gonna live on, we're gonna survive ;) Michael's music will still be around as long as we stick together and help each other on tough times. Show the love people!!

Thankyou for that. :) That bought me to tears, for about the 5th time today, lol.
 
I understand Elvis and Michael had similar followings but people compare the way they died and it's not fair...Elvis was going down hill so fast, people were worried about him and when he died he died a sad man
but Michael despite the hell he's been through he had so much love for life, and now he was full of plans and a healthy man...and then BAM! he's dead. something very wrong happened here..
 
Ivan, thank you for your thoughts... I feel the exact same way. I remember hearing that last phone interview from his birthday last year, and him saying how he thought the best was yet to come. I just can't believe that now we have ... nothing. Nothing new to look forward to, no future as you said. It all just stops. It's such a strange feeling. No new photos, no new ideas, projects. Even if there's new music, the man is not there to promote it, or make a music video, etc. Oh god, this is depressing.

Exactly. And NO ONE saw this coming. I mean if you'd have told me he was going to die this year, I probably would have laughed hysterically. It was just SO unexpected.
 
I hate that comparison it's not the same thing will people stop bringing his name in the picture? there are so many differences
I respect and like Elvis but it's not the same thing

Yes it is.

There is an EXACT comparison. I say we look at them and follow their lead, if they survived so can we.
It doesn't matter if he sang, looked, acted, or was different - his fans loved him the SAME way we love Michael, you cannot downplay thier experiences - to do so makes us sound like we are better than them somehow, that in which we are no.

Thank you - and yet more tears.

I'm glad this thread is here. I had thought of starting a similar thread called "Now what do we do?" I'm glad other's are thinking the same way because it's just difficult right now because our Leader is gone and we feel lost.

I can't do any more than I am which is going to work and coming home to mourn. I never thought my reaction would be like this or the pain to go so deep. I know I'm not alone.

Love to all
 
I will never let go of Michael that's for sure. Although i am very hurt right now, i will always love him and his music. I love this site also, and will forever embrace it!!!!!!!

~Don't worry guys we have each other, and Michael in our hearts~

did you not read what I said earlier? I was talking about the way people compare their deaths and there is a BIG difference in fact Lisa Marie with her big mouth was the first to bring that comparison without knowing the facts first
I didn't say we were better than Elvis fans don't put words in my mouth
 
We have to continue the legacy that Michael has brought us! His music shall never fade in our hearts.. If we are true fans, we will continue playing his music, and loving every thing he has done with all our hearts. :)
DATS WHATS UP. I TOTALLY AGREE:yes:
 
I feel deep regret and feel like I took MJ for granted. I wasn't following MJ news so I didn't know he was trying to make a comeback until he died. I don't even know if he was still alive and doing his tour right now, I would even know about it. I'm mad at myself and trying to make up for it now. As much as I like the idea of hearing new material like unreleased songs, it still wouldn't compare to actually seeing him alive. It's so depressing feeling like he got cheated out of this comeback.

I can't take a break from listening to his music or seeing him on YouTube. If I do it nearly kills me. Ever since the memorial service (when it actually hit me) I've been experiencing him every day all day. It keeps him alive and if I can't do it I want to scream. I feel like if I don't do it, then that means he's gone. Never again will I take Michael for granted. Never again. I don't know how long I'm going to be thinking of him, perhaps for the rest of my life. I don't want to stop. I think of him from the moment I wake up from the time I go to sleep. I never want to forget.

I'm not going to make that mistake again, and I'll be there as soon as the new album(s) come out.

Hey, you're right up the street from me - by about 150 miles. :)

Don't beat yourself up about it. A lot of friends told me the same thing but they said they never forgot about Michael, they knew he was always there, kind of like an armrest on a couch that you could always depend on.

It's gut wrenching that he's gone. Most of us feel the same regret that he didn't get to make his comeback. I started a meetup group in my area to get together with other MJ fans because there wasn't one. You may want to check out your area on meetup.com to see if other fans are there for support. He's gone but not forgotten. I feel like it's my duty to keep him alive in me and wherever I go.

*hug*
 
As i've said many times to my friends....We are all going the same path as Michael...no one will be left out...and we will lose more than Michael...some day our family. We need to be strong and be the voice of Michael. Michael might have passed, but now he lives in each one of us. Not to mention Sony will release so much, that will create a new era for Michael, his family and fans..

Some people might think if god really exists, why did he let something like this happen??
My best answer to that is he let it happen, so we don't take things for granted, cause nothing lasts forever, and i know some of you might think "well i never took Michael for granted"..no you didn't but many individuals did.

Michaels mission in life was to heal....simple. So lets live with that mission in our hearts. cause that will keep his spirit alive. Pass it on to our children and grandchildren. simply pay it forward.

I'm writing this in pain, but i hope i could help everyone to think positive, and be strong. You are not alone.....WE are not alone.

I depended on him so much, i say it again and again, i counted on him. I wanted him to kick dirt in everyone who ever dogged on him with This is it, i wanted to hear more and more albums. With his death, all my hopes are shattered! I never had such a strong connection with any artist as i do with him.

I hear you and I agree about the connection. Me too and millions feel the way we do.

It would have been "SWEET" for him to make his comeback, I agree. However, since it will never happen now I think this insane public outpouring of affection from Michael is LOUD and CLEAR to his accusers and people who plotted against him. Fans are coming out of the woodworks! Almost like closet fans are having huge regrets for not being openly supportive but they are now and we're showing the world we're alive and Michael is alive inside of all of us. We will never forget, we will always remember and celebrate his life and keep him alive.

I'm not trying to be a cheerleader because I'm upset just like you. But the truth of what happened to him hasn't surfaced yet so that keeps me going> I definitely want justice.

Hang on. *hug*

I'm nearly in tears, this was BEAUTIFUL!!!

*hug* I can compare myself to alot of your post.
I "lost" Michael the past few years, ofcourse he was always in my heart but I also took him for granted as you say.
I knew about TII but didn't think of it much, too busy with other things :doh:
Now I have the same thing waking up thinking about him and go to sleep thinking about him.
I'm so hurt deep inside, I feel like I have to make up for the past few years.
 
What you wrote is nice and sad at the same time. We will still be here. Michaelmania will change over time but he will forever be with us. His legacy will never die.
 
This is extremely depressing. I haven't thought of what it will be like AFTER everyone has gotten over the greiving stage...I know i'll continue to play his music for the rest of my life. When, I have children they will be BIG M.J. fans, I can promise you that. I think Michael will live forever.
 
He is gone, but his spirit is still here and will always live in our hearts.
