WE are the WOrld ! Lets make it a Brighter day! |
“There comes a time when we heed a certain callWhen the world must come together as one….
We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So lets start giving…..
Its true well makes a better day
Just you and me…!! “
Like they say , Great people or great lives are only realized after they are gone…
Its almost like this long walk. You make your own path no matter whom your following, u will still make your own pathway,being only inspired by others lives. One such life we shall calibrate for years and years to come and that will be of Michael Jackson! {{{“SHINE ON”}}}Like every child every person, no color or creed no country neither Black nor White….every humanbeing was dancing to the tune of his music, never realized that we would also see a day when he will depart his body like anybody…His Soul Lives on!The Change is Evident. Almost feels like the man has just been born again this time with his Music and all those LP’s, cassettes and CD’s and DVD’s are just coming out of the closet and the younger generation is being introduced to his music yet again and now they will all grow up to his music like we all did and for generations to come will be inspired by his music , which will expand and uplift peoples consciousness’ over and over again for generations to come. Everybody is thinking of a change. Making it a brighter day. Because we are the World. We make this world, we but not anybody but we can make it a brighter day…so let’s start giving…Michael Jackson was unquestionably the biggest pop star , and certainly one of the most popular recording artists of all time, he brought the world together as ONE! . In his prime, Jackson was an unstoppable juggernaut, possessed of all the tools to dominate the charts seemingly at will: an instantly identifiable voice, eye-popping dance moves, stunning musical versatility, and loads of sheer star power. His 1982 blockbuster Thriller became the biggest-selling album of all time.
No group could have contained Jackson’s rapidly rising star for long. Released in 1982, the Quincy Jones-produced Thriller refined the strengths of Off the Wall; the dance and rock tracks were more driving, the pop tunes and ballads softer and more soulful, and all of it was recognizably Michael. Jackson brought in Paul McCartney for a duet, guitarist Eddie Van Halen for a jaw-dropping solo, and Vincent Price for a creepy recitation. It was no surprise that Thriller was a hit; what was a surprise was its staying power. Jackson’s duet with McCartney, “The Girl Is Mine,” was a natural single choice, and it peaked at number two; then “Billie Jean” and the Van Halen track “Beat It” both hit number one, for seven and three weeks respectively. Those latter two songs, as well as the future Top Five title track, had one important feature in common: Jackson supported them with elaborately conceived video clips that revolutionized the way music videos were made. Jackson treated them as song-length movies with structured narratives: “Billie Jean” set the song’s tale of a paternity suit in a nightmarish dream world where Jackson was a solitary, sometimes invisible presence; the anti-gang-violence “Beat It” became an homage to West Side Story; and the ten-minute-plus clip for “Thriller” (routinely selected as the best video of all time) featured Jackson leading a dance troupe of rotting zombies, with loads of horror-film makeup and effects. Having never really accepted black artists in the past, MTV played the clips to death, garnering massive publicity for Jackson and droves of viewers for the fledgling cable network. Jackson sealed his own phenomenon by debuting his signature “moonwalk” dance step on May 16, 1983, on Motown’s televised 25th anniversary special; though he didn’t invent the moonwalk (as he himself was quick to point out), it became as much of a Jackson signature as his vocal hiccups or single white-sequined glove.
Michael Jackson had a notable impact on music and culture throughout the world. He broke down racial barriers, transformed the art of the music video and paved the way for modern pop music in his own country. Jackson’s work, distinctive musical sound and vocal style have influenced hip hop, pop and R&B artists. For much of his career, he had an “unparalleled” level of worldwide influence over the younger generation through his musical and humanitarian contributions.
“If you enter this world knowing you are loved and you leave this world knowing the same, then everything that happens in between can be dealt with.” - Michael Jackson

Ride To Bidar !!!!! |
I Know its Been a while since i have posted any of my Rides….But this one was different..as always a much awaited get away needed and had to get on and ride the Highway …!!!
This time I wanted a day ride…coz out of the tight schedule I wanted to take time out for a ride.. That’s when i saw on the Internet about Bidar , and it was only about 146km and a good option to ride .. and come back on the same day.. That’s when i decided i had to get on this road no matter what, over the weekend. But I was still very tentative… called Ram , told him wake me up early in the morning so that we could start early and make the most of the day …Well i slept late ..and by the time i woke up it was 8 in the morning….Got up and thought..ok! may be we will scrap the ride..and rather sleep coz i was really tired from all the erratic working hours during the week… and thought i should catch up with some more sleep instead..
Tried to go back to sleep…but couldn’t and the fact of being on
the Highway was really tempting me..woke up ..with a Jolt..!!! Got ready and got to ram’s place to pick him up at 9am . I know we were late but it really didn’t matter much, we headed straight to the highway, on my way i realized the bike was struggling…and all of a sudden stopped and wouldn’t budge, we got off the bike to realize smoke coming off the rear tier and rubber burning… allot of things running through my head at that moment… thought it could have been a piston snap..or some thing els..just didn’t know what to do..besides we were 40km away from the city…then thought may be it was the brakes that got jammed for some reason..immediately loosened the brakes..and started the bike again..and moved slowly and realized it was getting better and then ..there was no stopping…
