Welcome to my channel !

I was always fascinated by Michael Jackson. I am a kid of the late 80's so I can definitely say that I also grew up with his music. Unfortunately I never saw MJ live in Concert. I wanted to go to one of his concerts in London last year. I had a ticket for the "This Is It"- shows. I would even stand right in front of the stage. The day I heard about his death was a shock to me and it seemed so surreal. Nowadays I believe he faked his death. He had so many good reasons for that. I wished I saw him on his HIStory World Tour.
Michael's life was very painful in many many ways. Hetereonomous through the violence of his father, all possible allegations that weren't true. Michael hadn't an easy life. And always those silly prejudices because of the changing colour of his skin. I believe that Vitiligo was the reason. But what if not ? Maybe he wanted to be white ... but does that matter ? White People get tanned in the sun to look black. In my estimation there shouldn't be a word like "Race" ! I believe in Equality. As human we have to learn to love each other the way we are and create a wonderful rainbow in Harmony. Let us start with the Man In The Mirror. Let us live in Peace together on this planet.
Let us remember Michael for the outstanding things that he did. For his music but also for his big heart. He helped so many people who were in need. He was a wonderful person. That is my conviction. Listening to his voice gives me goosebumps. But I am not only a fan. I love him very very much. I always did and always will !

I also love to hear the music by SCORPIONS so much. They are the Best. And I love them just like I love the music by MIchael and that means so so so much. I have all records of them. And in 2005 I won a Meet&Greet in Krefeld. That day was indescribebable. It's such a Pity that they end their career after this last Tour. On the one hand I am sad but on the other hand I think that "Sting In The Tail" is a killer-record. The right album to end a career on a high note. Their career lasts for over 4 decades now. They wrote Rock History and have their own Eternization on the Hollywood Rock Walk. When they won't release albums or Tour anymore this will be a very huge loss. The Best Band ever ! The Scorpions always were and remain the Best Rock Band ever ! They sold over 100-150 Mio. records Worlwide... as a German Rock Band. The most successful German Rock Band of all Time ! They rocked all over the globe. Everyone knows them. Once Matthias Jabs was caught in a traffic jam in Saudi-Arabia. An Arabian man on a camel was greeting him in German (!) Klaus Meine's voice is mindblowing. I can not get enough of it.
The best rock singer ever ! Rudolf Schenker is such a positive and outstanding human-being. He always believed in his visions and he prooved that nothing is impossible as long as you believe in yourself. He knew that the Scorpions would make a World career. His band prooved that it doesn't matter where you come from. It is just important where the music comes from and it has to come from the heart. Their music is peaceful. It also deals with Equality: "cause we all live under the same sun, we all walk under the same moon... then why can't we live as one ?"

I saw the morning
It was shattered by a gun
Heard a scream, saw him fall, no one cried
I saw a mother
She was praying for her son
Bring him back, let him live, don't let him die

Do you ever ask yourself
Is there a Heaven in the sky
Why can't we get it right

'cause we all live under the same sun
We all walk under the same moon
Then why, why can't we live as one

I saw the evening
Fading shadows one by one
We watch the lamb, lay down to the sacrifice
I saw the children
The children of the sun
How they wept, how they bled, how they died

Do you ever ask yourself
Is there a Heaven in the sky
Why can't we stop the fight

'cause we all live under the same sun
We all walk under the same moon
Then why, why can't we live as one

Sometimes I think I'm going mad
We're loosing all we had and no one seems to care
But in my heart it doesn't change
We've got to rearrange and bring our world some love

And does it really matter
If there's a heaven up above
We sure could use some love

'cause we all live under the same sun
We all walk under the same moon
Then why, why can't we live as one
'cause we all live under the same sky
We all look up at the same stars
Then why, tell me why can't we live as one
