Like many of you Michael Jackson fans out there I was shocked and saddened by his untimely death. So much so that when I heard about it I went straight to my piano and wrote this song as a tribute to him. (Note: an earlier version of this song with different vocals is currently uploaded on my other YouTube account 'mwadaddy')


'This Is It' (in memory of Michael Jackson)

When I turned on the news today
They told me that the king had passed away
I can't believe it, it's so sad
What do you say to news like that?

The world has lost a true sensation
The kind that comes along once a generation
It was your voice that made you unique
Your caring ways and your lightning feet

This is it, my friend
You weren't Invincible in the end
HIStory will prove
That there was no one quite like you
And I don't think there ever will be
Not to them and not to me

And when you think of all the joy he gave us
He wasn't Bad and certainly not Dangerous
Maybe a little Off The Wall
A little crazy, aren't we all?

This is it, my friend
You weren't Invincible in the end
HIStory will prove
That there was no one quite like you
And I don't think there ever will be
Not to them and not to me
