MJ's Army, I need your feedback! The more I listen to Cry, the more it sounds like our theme song. Not only is it beautiful, but it has a beautiful message. Please comment if you agree, and thanks! www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3SK4bk7trY&NR=1[Verse 1] Somebody shakes when the wind blows Somebody's missing a friend, hold on Somebody's lacking a hero And they have not a clue When it's all gonna end [Verse 2] Stories buried and untold Someone is hiding the truth, hold on When will this mystery unfold And will the sun ever shine In the blind man's eyes when he cries? [Chorus:] You can change the world (I can't do it by myself) You can touch the sky (Gonna take somebody's help) You're the chosen one (I'm gonna need some kind of sign) If we all cry at the same time tonight [Verse 3] People laugh when they're feelin sad Someone is taking a life, hold on Respect to believe in your dreams Tell me where were you when your children cried last night? [Verse 4] Faces fill with madness Miracles unheard of, hold on Faith is found in the winds All we have to do Is reach for the truth [Chorus] And when that flag blows There'll be no more wars And when all calls I will answer all your prayers [Chorus x3] Change the world

Mary Ann, Yes, definitely! I thought of this some time ago, that it felt like it was «my» song! And now I feel it's ours. It really helped me when I cried and tried not to cry: The song and his soft voice made me feel like crying was okay. I feel like he wrote the song to us. Over these moths this song has became very important to me. Hearing Michael singing to us (because in my opinion that's what he's doing), is just a wonderful feeling. Somebody's missing a friend, hold on, Somebody's lacking a heroYes, we are MISSING you, Michael, but we won't ever give up! Someone is hiding the truth, hold onThat's right, and WE are those who will spread the truth of who you are You can change the world (I can't do it by myself)We are happy and honored to bring your message further You're the chosen oneWe are, and we are so proud of it, and we will make you proud as well! Last but not least, and I think this goes without saying anything And when all calls, I will answer all your prayers

Michael... It wasn't your time to go yet. You loved life so much. You deserved SO much more. I wish the concerts would have taken place, for YOUR sake. I know you accept that you had to leave now, but I really can't understand why, I find it so unfair. You were the person who spread love and joy to the world, you deserved to be with us for a longer time. My heart is aching for you. I really miss you, Michael...

Ida, we ALL miss Michael... we grieve so much that it's unbearable at times. But we have to accept that it WAS his time, as each of us will have our own time. Please remember he is so very happy now.
As for his rehearsal footage, we will have that forever. His legacy will continue on for generations, and we are all so grateful for that. Thank God that we got to see him in OUR lifetime!
And someday we will see him again, and he will welcome us with open arms.
I love you more

Mal, I know what you are saying... And I try to tell myself as well... But some days are harder than others and sometimes it's VERY difficult to deal with Michael's passing, without thinking of Michael the spirit, but just simply the HUMAN BEING that loved life so very much. But reality is reality and we have to deal with, whether we like it or not. It's life.
I love YOU more

It turns out that when Michael wrote this song, he was thinking towards the future! He must have had a vision or a prophesy what would happen once he was gone. Nut emailed some of us a few days ago, when she discovered these hidden lyrics at the end of his song! Listen closely... when I die all will cry (cry cry cry) at the same time tonight change the world Now I see why this song resonated with me so much! I asked Michael if he had a vision, and he replied back "What do you think?" I smiled and said yes, that's what I think I noticed something else too, that we have a very appropriate forum name. If you go to 45th Birthday Party to listen to Michael's speech to the fans (under Favorite Michael Videos), you will hear him call them his "army," his soldiers of love! Maybe it was Michael who guided us to name our forum... I bet that's it. Namaste, Mal

GiveIn, he must have known! Why else would he sing these words (even though they are not part of the official lyrics): when I die all will cry (cry cry cry) at the same time tonight change the world Yes, this truly is AMAZING! What he sang has come to pass, and his followers, his "army" are going forward to change the world! It's obvious to everyone here that we didn't just find each other by chance or coincidence. As Nut would say, there are no such things as coincidences!

I already watched all those vids of Mike's 45th birthday thanks to Mal's link sharing. I love his speech to fans so much, it's beautiful and from the bottom of his heart and yep, we are proud to have named our forum exactly what Mike called his fans, that we are his army and soldiers of love
I miss you all, I really do

Some days I have trouble just like you, Ida, in dealing with the fact that Michael is physically gone: "But some days are harder than others and sometimes it's VERY difficult to deal with Michael's passing, without thinking of Michael the spirit, but just simply the HUMAN BEING that loved life so very much. But reality is reality and we have to deal with, whether we like it or not. It's life." (I couldn't remember how to do that quote box thing y'all use - sorry!) But I find inspiration in our group, appropriately named MJ's Army (of course, Michael inspired that name!). And "Cry" is most definitely our theme song! When Nut emailed us about the "hidden" lyrics at the very end of the song, I was just blown away!! And then, Mal, you confirmed this with Michael that he had a vision of what was to come and that is why he sang these lyrics! He sang these lyrics years ago and now they directly apply to us!! Absolutely mind-boggling!! Isn't it just AMAZING how EVERYTHING is interconnected and intertwined so beautifully? Even between the past and the present! I love you more! Jacque

Thank you, Jacque, and YES, I have to make that clear (like I haven't made myself clear already, haha) - Yes, I DO and we do find inspiration, unconditional love, support and uvurdelig help in this group. When I'm having bad days, I always think of this group, my family, and how PROUD, HONORED and LUCKY I am as a member of Michael Jackson's Army. And that really helps me to KEEP THE FAITH...
It's all about love, Ida
